  4. God is no Yeti: a rumination on religion

    Several times, reading the comments beneath an online article about religion, I've come upon remarks along the lines of: "Really? A magic being in the sky?" Terry Eagleton, in "Reason, Faith, and Revolution," refers to this pseudo-critique as the Yeti theory of belief in God: The idea that what the religious believe in is some sort of entity in the world for whose existence we have dubious evidence at best. In a review of Richard Dawkins' "The God Delusion," Eagleton puts it this way:

  5. Penn Jillette speaks his mind. Again

    Penn Jillette isn't one to shy from controversy. In his new book, "Every Day Is an Atheist Holiday," the highly opinionated, talkative half of the long-running magic duo Penn & Teller takes on atheism, racism and the plight of the underclass.

  6. Review: A rowdy, shaggy night for Bad Religion at the Echo

    Wednesday night was probably the first time a singer used the phrase “hemagglutinin” onstage at the Echo. Longtime L.A. punk fans know that can mean only one thing -- local heroes Bad Religion were playing a rare club-sized show, and its vocalist/UCLA biology professor Greg Graffin was warning the front rows that he'd recently had the flu.

  7. Threatened by faith in Santa Monica

    Christmas in Santa Monica has gotten a whole lot darker and a whole lot less tolerant. For almost 60 years Santa Monica's Palisades Park embodied the Christmas spirit with its displays depicting the birth of Jesus. Through the use of large dioramas, the Christmas story unfolded chronologically, based on the Gospels of Luke and Matthew.

  10. City Lights: 'Blessing' is faith at its finest

    Everyone has questions they hate to be asked. High on my list is, "Are you religious?" I dread it especially if I sense that a "no" answer will prompt a barrage of other questions, some of them rhetorical.

  11. Are Women (Less) Funny Than Men?

    The late Christopher Hitchens started the are-women-funny debate with a provocative article in 2006 by declaring that men are funnier because it’s a way to attract women (but not vice versa). The debate continues, with the latest installment from The Courant’s Gina Barreca. Are women not funny? If so, why not? What’s your view?
