    Are most humans moral or amoral by default?

    Humans are social beings. Most of us are capable of both altruism and selfishness. We are one of the few species that can imagine the pain and hurt of others, that is where our moral compass starts. How we are able to reason with that image is different for everybody.* There have been studies...

    Why i am proud to be an atheist

    1. Unlike most people, I was not indoctrinated into a religion as a child. My parents are agnostic. By the time that I had heard of this "god" person, the thought of an invisible peeping Tom always watching and judging me was really scary and creepy. As I got older and more curious about...

    Quoting the Bible on homosexuality could be considered hate speech

    I remember a couple years ago when Ann Coulter was going to speak in Ottowa and someone sent her a letter telling her to be careful not to break a hate crime law. I really do love this country, can someone pass me a beer eh?

    Cohabitation before Marriage | Good or Bad

    I think it is really important to know what you expect from your partner and what they expect from you, especially when it comes to care and maintenance of your home. My husband clearly understood he was going to be the spider squisher and I would be the puke cleaner(although I don't like too)...

    Should you tell your child Santa is real?

    I was specifically talking about the story of St. Nick (not Jesus), if this what you're thinking. Also not the story of reindeer and the north pole, just the man.

    Should you tell your child Santa is real?

    My husband and I got into an a debate about whether or not we should tell our child Santa is real. He is not religious but his family is. He sees no harm in playing Santa until they grow up, I on the other hand think it's not necessary. I have no problem with the story, but don't see the point...

    the ethics of atheism.

    I realize I might be somewhat of a rarity, but I am a third generation unbeliever in personal gods. Possibly forth, my great grandfather did not believe but great grandmother did. Morality stems from a persons ability to empathize with other living beings. Most of us have this ability, excluding...

    Isn't everyone somewhat racist?

    I don't believe we are all racist but we are certainly prejudice. We all have a sense of in-group and out-group. This is important especially when we are children. A child that lacks this sense is in danger of kidnapping or a long list of other terrible scenarios however unlikely. Our brains...
