Richard Carrier mocks Christianity at Skepticon 2011. “I am a feminist because feminism is simply the belief that women should be treated as fairly as men, and there is no factual or rational reason to want the world to work any other way.” — Richard Carrier, 2012 “The accusations specifically against Richard Carrier are, sadly, […]
Why Is Heather So Angry?
Today, I’ve been researching an update on Zinnia Jones, and you may recall that Zinnia is married to Heather McNamara.

Jacobins, Bolsheviks and Feminists
If you study history, you learn to see patterns.
