Had a great weekend at Pride in Sarnia. Many of our members are looking for the community they lost when leaving their church. We are trying to build that community for them again. All are welcome. #LoveIsLove #QueerJoy #SarniaPride

One of our favourites. He was our patron. He is sorely missed.

“In the Ramtop village where they dance the real Morris dance, for example, they believe that no one is finally dead until the ripples they cause in the world die away—until the clock he wound up winds down, until the wine she made has finished its ferment, until the crop they planted is harvested. The span of someone’s life, they say, is only the core of their actual existence.”
― Terry Pratchett, Reaper Man

I thought these people were all about being biblical?

A screenshot of two tweets from a crazy racist MAGA nut named Laura Loomer who is complaining that "Not a single white person or English translation at the Super Bowl" and "LA Mayor Karen Bass thinks zero English and no white people is what 'America truly looks like.'”

Above those in the screenshot, AndrewLSeidel is dunking on those tweets, pointing out:

"No white people and zero English"?!
So in it's original form, Bad Bunny's halftime show was just like the Bible?
Cool.

She's big mad, but also not very likeable. Or smart. Or...she's got a sort of the-spite-is-eating-me-alive-from-the-inside thing going on.

A Christian ministry spent $16 million on a Super Bowl ad (and nearly $700 million total so far) trying to rebrand Jesus. It’s still not working. Because the problem isn't the marketing. It's the Christians. www.friendlyatheist.com/p/the-he-get...

The "He Gets Us" campaign has a PR problem no Super Bowl ad can solve

You can’t rebrand Jesus while ignoring the damage done by modern Christianity

New Hampshire Republicans want to amend the state constitution to elevate Christianity above all other religions. The change would also let towns *elect* public school teachers, presumably based on faith. This is what theocracy looks like. www.friendlyatheist.com/p/new-hampsh...
