Christ FM now Porn FM?
Thursday, July 27th, 2006This is a pretty funny story about a formerly Christian radio station which was sold this month and immediately relabeled “Porn Radio.”
KINGSBURG, California (AP) — KFYE-FM hasn’t budged from the Fresno-area dial, but it’s about as far as you can get from the Christian music, sermons and Bible stories it was broadcasting until about a […]
Attention Young Earthers: Snakes Had Hips!
Wednesday, April 19th, 2006It will be interesting to see what happens with Young Earth Creationists get a hold of this …

Mohammad Cartoon, Meet Jesus Cartoon
Thursday, February 2nd, 2006While personally I think this whole matter bloody silly — apparently CNN (an American network, mind you) has been showing the so called “Mohammad” cartoons on the air in pixilated form, exactly how Al Jazeera has been showing them — CNN says they are doing this “as to not offend viewers.” Amazing given they […]
Rabbi ‘Loves Christmas’
Thursday, December 22nd, 2005I’m waiting to get on my plane, and caught this article. Sort of interesting, I don’t have time to deconsturct it — but here’s a sample.
