Black Woman Thinks ... posted an article on - Jun 18, 2011, 5:10 pm
A little late but a more than worthy blog post here. Greta Christina is a very interesting atheist blogger who I have written about here on a few occasions. She has very kindly added my name and this blog to the list. http://gretachristina.typepad.com/greta_christinas_weblog/2011/03/atheists-o...

Quote of the Week:

Black Woman Thinks ... posted an article on - Apr 2, 2011, 2:32 pm
"The true-believer syndrome merits study by science. What is it that compels a person, past all reason, to believe the unbelievable. How can an otherwise sane individual become so enamored of a fantasy, an imposture, that even after it's exposed in the bright light of day he still clings to it — i...

Her devotion to 'God' was so intense that she even spent a year in a theology college in Scandinavia, taught young c...

A Freethinker: Annie Besant

Black Woman Thinks ... posted an article on - Dec 28, 2010, 7:05 pm
I chanced upon Annie Besant after returning from spending a typical Caribbean Christmas with friends and family. Annie Besant was an incredibly interesting woman, brave and intelligent at a time where women were devalued. Here is a quote from a book she wrote 'My Path to Atheism' (1885, 3rd edition)...

The Wikileaks Story: Have the Worms Turned?

Black Woman Thinks ... posted an article on - Dec 3, 2010, 5:09 pm
I have pondered on the Wikileaks story and haven't quite made up my mind as to the motivation, aims and objectives of Julian Assange - not yet, not completely. The nub of it seems to be: World powers are a cabal, various factions with Cosa Nostra-type behaviours and values who rule, and ...

Just in case you haven't yet been sledge-hammered by the British media - Kate and William will get married next year. 'Who?' I hear you ask. Tut-tut. William, the son of Charles Windsor who is the son of the present queen of the UK, is marrying a 'commoner' and the sycophantic media are ...

If you are a believer you may not be aware that black atheists exist or even 'People of Colour' who do not  believe in god/s. As such we can feel isolated and cut off from the mainstream religious communities that provide emotional support when life gets tough. As atheist (a- without, theist-...

Ella Fitzgerald - 'Summertime'

Black Woman Thinks ... posted an article on - Sep 20, 2010, 9:06 am
Changing the subject completely: Here's something to soothe and mesmerise simultaneously. I love Ella's voice, she makes it all seem so effortless. She allows the song to just be. The musicians hold back without overkill.  Just. Beautiful.

The Pope arrives in the UK...

He arrives in the UK on 16th September 2010 on a state visit paid for, in the main, by UK taxpayers. Why isn't the British public up in arms about a criminal being lauded and paraded on a state visit? I cannot write about this charade any better than Christopher Hitchens, so here is an extract...

My series here 'Child Abuse - The Series' is just my way of showcasing ways in which some humans fill the heads of their offspring with unproven, factually and scientifically nonsense. The children are affected for life. The other night I watched Channel 4's 'Baby Bible Basher' and wonder if y...
