		<description><![CDATA[This came in today on Twitter (although strangely, it&#8217;s now disappeared from the RDF Twitter feed). It seems the Richard Dawkins Foundation have decided &#8211; wisely, in my view &#8211; to revise the mechanics and governance of their discussion forums. This has displeased some people, to the extent that they&#8217;ve posted messages villifying RD and [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=effingtheineffable.wordpress.com&amp;blog=866936&amp;post=101&amp;subd=effingtheineffable&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

It&#8217;s often said that the greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he doesn&#8217;t exist. But was it? I reckon he did something a lot more subtle and pernicious&#8230; Watch the news. Read a paper.

The word &#8220;faith&#8221; conjures up images of pious, light-bathed young girls, hands clasped in prayer, gazing hopefully towards heaven, believing that their innocuous prayers for the wellbeing of various friends and relatives will be answered [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=effingtheineffable.wordpress.com&amp;blog=866936&amp;post=68&amp;subd=effingtheineffable&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It seems news of the atheist bus has reached the foodie community. In a post on today&#8217;s Word of Mouth, the Guardian&#8217;s food blog, a commenter replies to an increasingly pretentious thread on the etiquette of cheese and biscuits: There&#8217;s probably no etiquette God. Now stop worrying and enjoy your crackers.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=effingtheineffable.wordpress.com&amp;blog=866936&amp;post=66&amp;subd=effingtheineffable&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
