Atheicon iPhone App Available in the
iTunes App Store Now

I’m excited to announce that my first independent iOS app was just approved and released to the iTunes App Store. It’s named Atheicon, and it strives to be the premiere iOS pocket reference for atheists, humanists, and skeptics.

Atheicon features a large database of relevant quotations, biographies, glossary terms, and arguments, all in support of a natural worldview. Check it out at http://atheicon.com

Atheicon was created to help non-theists (atheists, humanists, skeptics, etc.) in their quest for civic equality through education. This “Atheist Lexicon” contains information that spans the gamut on the subject of “belief”, including content around world religions and religious information, as well as inspiration for the non-believer through witty and insightful quotes, argument, fact, and more. Explore your worldview by exploring those of theists, with a special focus on Judao-Christian belief. Increase your ability to make cogent arguments against belief while respecting others’ right to believe what they choose. No internet connection is required.

WiFi Signal Problems? This Might Help.

I’ve been battling with intermittent signal problems in my house for some time. My have an Apple Time Capsule base station, which supports dual band 802.11 g/n on 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz bands. And my iPad and Macbook Air both support 802.11n on both bands. My iPhone only supports the 2.4Ghz band, as I recently discovered.

At the other end of the house, opposite the base station, is my bedroom, where the WiFi issues occur. Initially, I added a WiFi extender, in the form of an Apple Airport Express. I’ve tried two models, and both gave me great signal strength, but the connectivity would intermittently stop (as it did without the extender), sometimes requiring a restart of the extender. I eventually got rid of the extender, and decided to research a different solution.

Rush Limbaugh Outrageous? Please.

So, anyone who takes Rush Limbaugh seriously should think again. This asshole is a ratings whore. His outrageous hegemonic hyperbole toting the Republican line is nothing more than offensive ratings fodder for fools.

To those, like Republican party sycophant and Mitt Romney oral bidet Ari Fleischer, who want to compare this nonsense to Larry Doyle’s anti-Catholic article posted in the Democratic party ass rag “The Huffington Post” have made one crucial mistake: the article condemning Catholic mass is completely correct. In the article, one comment describes Catholic mass as a mystical dark ritual “in which a black-robed cleric casts a spell over some bread and wine, transfiguring it into the actual living flesh and blood of their Christ. Followers then line up to eat the Jesus meat and drink his holy blood in a cannibalistic reverie not often seen outside Cinemax.” This ritualistic cannibalism is accomplished through transubstantiation. So, yes, Catholicism is a cult of human sacrifice. If the Catholic church didn’t have the power it currently wields it would be referred to as a cult.

Mitt Romney Believes in Crazy Shit

Mitt Romney has been adjusting his message more toward the ultra-conservative religious right of the party ever since Rick Santorum surged in the polls, winning the Minnesota and Colorado caucuses, as well as a nonbinding primary in Missouri. Apparently, Mitt’s quite devout. But when explaining his religious beliefs, he dances around the subject, never getting into too much detail.

So in the interest of clarity for the Republican voting public, and a bit of what I call “tardy honesty”, I give you some of the top things Mitt Romney believes as a practicing Mormon, with some descriptive commentary.
