Unprayerful Reflections has a guest columnist today: Nicole Scott, our managing editor. Nicole dissects the recent, bizarre push for "household voting" by Christian nationalists. On the road to Gilead? secularhumanism.org/exclusive/is-h…
In his column today, Ron Lindsay envisages a future where the combination of ideologically shaped perceptions & gov't pressure make Trump's claim of a rigged 2020 election the "official" version of that event. secularhumanism.org/exclusive/the-…
In his column today, Ron Lindsay criticizes Trump's efforts to whitewash American history. He notes, however, that Trump's cultural counter-revolution is, in part, an (over)reaction to the excesses of the Left's identity politics. secularhumanism.org/exclusive/comm…
Ron Lindsay's column will not appear today. Instead Ron invites you to read Katherine Stewart's stirring speech at the recently concluded Scopes Centennial conference, if you have not already done so. secularhumanism.org/exclusive/kath…
In his column today, Ron Lindsay discusses the puff piece the @NewYorker ran on the "pope's astronomer." No conflict between religion & science. How could there be when God is just that nice feeling you get when the data plot lines up perfectly. secularhumanism.org/exclusive/hall…
Creationists like Luskin literally do not know what they are talking about. Unfortunately, too many in the media don't understand genetics either & disseminate creationist nonsense.
Creationists like Luskin literally do not know what they are talking about. Unfortunately, too many in the media don't understand genetics either & disseminate creationist nonsense.
We are pleased to post a forceful, timely speech by Katherine Stewart, recently delivered at CFI's Scopes Centennial Conference. You may not be fined nowadays for teaching evolution, but the threats to science & education from the Trump admin. are serious secularhumanism.org/exclusive/kath…
In his column today, Ron Lindsay discusses the claim of the Religious Right that the separation of church and state is a "myth," arguing that this claim shows a complete misunderstanding of the wording and structure of the Constitution. secularhumanism.org/exclusive/the-…
No column from Ron Lindsay today. He's working on his Trump Deflection Index, correlating the intensity of Trump's deflection efforts w/how often he utters certain words, such as "Barack HUSSEIN Obama." In the meantime, Ron invites you to read this essay: secularhumanism.org/2025/07/how-si…
ICYMI, we have posted online an excellent essay by @nathanlents demolishing a creationist's attack on a Smithsonian display. As a bonus, the essay provides a concise, perspicuous explanation of genetic similarity. A must read! secularhumanism.org/2025/07/how-si…
Free Inquiry is pleased to post on its website a timely, excellent essay by biologist Nathan Lents demolishing a creationist's recent attack on the Smithsonian for allegedly misleading the public. secularhumanism.org/2025/07/how-si…
In his column today, Ron Lindsay discusses and laments the role that religious fundamentalism -- Jewish, Muslim, and Christian -- has played in the Mideast conflicts. secularhumanism.org/exclusive/the-…
In his column today, Ron Lindsay criticizes the IRS policy reversal allowing religious orgs to endorse candidates. Not only is this inconsistent with their nonprofit status, but injecting (more) religious zealotry into politics is a singularly bad idea secularhumanism.org/exclusive/endo…
In his column today, Ron Lindsay argues -- surprise! -- that the Trump admin. has been very selective when it comes to pursuing its goal of making Americans "safe." What matters is what helps Trump secularhumanism.org/exclusive/the-…
Ron Lindsay's column will not appear today. Ron's brain has undergone a temporary meltdown, either from the heat wave or as an effect from reading Ross Douthat's collection of bad arguments in Believe. (See review here: secularhumanism.org/exclusive/expl…) Ron should recover by next week.
Because of the Juneteenth holiday, Ron Lindsay's column is posted today. This column is an extended review of Ross Douthat's book Believe. Ron finds the book's arguments provide no reason for believing in a deity. secularhumanism.org/exclusive/expl…
In his column today, Ron Lindsay argues that the debate over the wisdom of physician-assisted dying for the terminally ill should be over, but different considerations do apply for those who are not terminally ill. secularhumanism.org/exclusive/assi…
In today's column, Ron Lindsay argues that if we do not want kings to rule us we should modify the one provision in the Constitution that expressly allows the president to act like a monarch: the pardon power secularhumanism.org/exclusive/a-ch…
In today's column, Ron Lindsay discusses the renewed push for prayer time in public schools. There are political reasons for this, of course, but he also sees this effort as an admission that religion can't stand on its own; it needs a gov't crutch secularhumanism.org/exclusive/the-…
Ron Lindsay's column will not appear this week. Instead he invites you to read a Free Inquiry exclusive: a journalist's illuminating first-hand, contemporaneous account of the Scopes trial (100th anniversary this year). secularhumanism.org/exclusive/uncl…
