Nicki Minaj Compliments Christianity
Yes, ladies and gentlemen, we make another entry into the Unbelievers Compliment Christianity files. This one comes along with a real life juxtaposition which dichotomizes Christianity and Islam and what one can expect from besmirching (or, being thought to have besmirched) these religions, their prophets, their holy texts, their gods, etc.
Is it true that “Atheism Groups Grow on College Campuses”?
Just began posting a series of articles considering that very question. Are atheist activists gaining ground on college campuses?
