Flood Myth
A flood myth or deluge myth is a mythical or religious story of a great flood sent by a deity or deities to destroy civilization as an act of divine retribution. It is a theme widespread among many cultures, though it is perhaps best known in modern times through the biblical and Quranic account of Noah’s Ark, the foundational myths of the Quiché and Mayas, through Deucalion in Greek...
Noah's Ark & Islamic View Of Noah
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islamic_view_of_Noah

These narratives describe the construction of the ark by the Patriarch Noah at God’s command to save himself, his family, and the world’s animals from the...

One of these things is not like the others! One of these things has institutional powers! One of these things can’t command people from a position of power!

Scientists put forced selection pressure on a population of yeast, a single cell organism, and within about 350 generations the yeast had become a new multicellular organism.
They were even able to witness the in-between stages where at first, there were single yeast cells that would stay…

I’m an atheist. No. It’s worse than that, actually. I’m a loud mouth atheist, I’m a combative, argumentative, aggressive, “militant atheist.” I talk about my favorite delusion every chance I get.

Iran. A theocracy with nukes. What will appease the desire to be a martyr for god? What reasonable argument would convince the irrational? Only by calling religion for what it is now (myth and superstition) can we hope for a better tomorrow. The only solution to irrationality is the rejection of it.
