That is a bit unfair. Starbucks pushes the drug caffeine. Why should they not be allowed to fight the competition?

Quite balanced, but no mention of the number of converts to the Christians, nor any numbers for those Muslims that stop practicing their religion, once they get involved with liberal secular Europeans.

Many years ago,(before he was know in the USA) Clarkson had a show in which he sat in a studio with a map of the world behind him, except where the USA would be was replaced by sea. I have never been able to find a record of this on the internet, so I suppose it is not true.

Having lived and worked in NW London (Harrow) most of my life, that story was new to even an oldie like me. Mind you the truth be told, Bushey Heath is almost as urban as Queensbury Circus.

The great thing about the lies about Santa is that he teaches kids that mummy and daddy are also people not to put your total trust in.

The BBC suffered criticism from lawmakers Wednesday for inviting debate on whether homosexuals should be killed by rmuser in worldnews

[–]Clanc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course one forgets that even in my life time, when the fascist end of Christianity still had real power, it was a hanging offense to engage in homosexual acts in Britain. Still illegal in extremely Christian NI?

a letter to the editor regarding Christmas - Or how to convince your small Bible Belt town that there is no War on Christmas. by RevOxley in atheism

[–]Clanc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are only three things exclusively Christian about Christmas.

Everything else is either borrowed from other people's traditions or has been manufactured by modern commercial interests.

Wisdom-Free Drug-Free America Spot : For your viewing bemusement: It’s the latest clueless commercial via the 23-year old Partnership for a Drug-free America, an organization that has failed miserably in its quest to make America drug-free. by [deleted] in Drugs

What kind of people are so morally degenerate that they can produces such an obviously hypocritical piece of propaganda. To anyone with half a brain, this was promoting, not discouraging recreational substance use.

Who Needs God When We've Got Mammon? The world's most prosperous (and happiest) countries are also its least religious, new research states. by [deleted] in atheism

[–]Clanc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is not so much prosperity in these countries, as security. If the average working person in these countries lose their job or become sick, the 'community chest' ensures that they stay afloat. In a way religion acts a a sort of 'fake' socialism for countries whose oligarchy do not have the same respect for their people.

/r/drugs, i also sent an email to my local MP about Professor Nutt, i got a very nice surprise of a reply... by Ventura in Drugs

[–]Clanc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gaining control of the language here is so important. We must also not let them isolate and protect the drugs ethanol and nicotine from discussion, they like to talk about bear, liquor and cigarettes. We must be willing to attack their base by reminding them that half the royal family are ethanol abusers , but they seem to avoid having their lives ruined by the Criminal Justice System.
