Wondy 33
Four pages from today's Wondy.

So, the sea monsters from the preview attack the island. The amazons fight back. Ares shows up.

WHUT. She won't kill Genocide, but she will kill Ares? She can kill Ares? Since when? He's the god of war. The whole point of him is that he outclasses her as much as Clark outclasses Jim Gordon.

They're on Thalarion at this point, and Zeus shows up and is all "be a wife and mother, and oh I killed Kane."

When WML does a better Polly than Gail, something is badly wrong with the universe.

... yeah.

On the plus side, I've had to cut back on luxuries recently and I've been waffling over what titles to cut, and this makes that decision easier at least..

Again, I don't see what Secular Humanism has to do with anything at hand here.

His definition of Atheism is closer to the philosophy held by Secularist at the very least. Secular Humanism being the most common form of Secular Philosophy.

Something that's very important to remember about atheism is that it isn't a religion or set of beliefs.

Of course. It's the absence of belief. It's the Zero of religion. The problem is that Atheists (Atheists who give a crap) also have a guiding moral philosophy as well. Which is, in effect, a set of "beliefs" usually ascribing to moral behavior or the meaning of existence.

And because of the nature of the article, the author is assuming that all Atheists are Secularists (Crowlian Satanists get no love, I tell ya!). Ergo, I'm clarifying on behalf of the author who is misinformed.

Finally Both Writer and Author clearly do not have an understanding of either skepticism, secularism or the Scientific Method. Otherwise, it would have been more heavily incorporated into their respective works.

As someone who's actually though about "How would science look at 'actual' dieties" long and hard, I do have an answer for that.
