Lazyman's Linkdump

Sorry for the lack of activity here this week.. it's part laziness, part busy-ness. So, in the interest of giving you something to chew on, here's a linkdump...

First up.. what? A closeted gay anti-gay evangelical? And one who talks to Bush on a regular basis? And is the leader of one of America's largest stupidity factories megachurches? And loves methamphetamine? Say it isn't so! Video here... Schadenfreude meter going into the red!
UPDATE: Haggard resigns.

What? No more shrimp scampi? Scientists are saying that if things don't change soon, the world's seafood supply may be depleted by 2048.

The Rude Pundit, in his ever-so-uniquely-eloquent way: Why Vote Against Republicans? Because Fuck Them.

And finally, some good news over at Raw Story. '42% of U.S. Adults Not Certain there is a God' (hat tip to Vermonter over at What's the Point?). Now, this one seems too good to be true, that number does seem optimistically high. But another thing to consider is that maybe, just maybe, the uncertainty has been that high, but people are finally more comfortable speaking about it. It's no conincidence that Sam Harris' and Richard Dawkins' latest books have been on top of the bestseller lists. Maybe the day where one can call themselves an atheist and not get looked at like they have two heads will be closer than we thought. We can pray that it's true (jus' kiddin').
