I Miss LDS Members
Yesterday I was able to talk to my boyfriend's sister, Jill, for the first time since she'd returned from Boot Camp. She injured her foot and is on shore leave. She was stationed in West Virginia and Texas. She'd been able to visit a Mormon church every week and really liked it. I could tell that...

Tell Me This Isn't Hatefull
The other day I saw a bumper stick on the back of a car that said, "Try Jesus, if you don't like it the devil will always take you back." Excuse me? When did not worshipping Jesus automatically meant I worship the devil? This is the sort of thing that gets to me. Christians have no problem showing...

Why Don't They Get it?
My sister goes to a local community college. She tells me that when of the students is trying to shove the bible down her throat. Fortunately, she doesn't share any classes with him. The problem is that my family grew up in a church, so we've all read the bible. This guy just won't listen. He keeps...

Why Can't Love be Expressed Just Because?
Yesterday my P.R. class had a guest speaker. She was the Communications Director for Luthern Social Services of Michigan. And, of course, she managed to annoy me without trying. Luthern Social Services of Michigan claim to serve as an expression of Christ's love. I can't tell how much that just...

Bush is a Bigot
"No, I don't know that Atheists should be considered as citizens, nor should they be considered patriots. This is one nation under God." These are the president's actual words. He said this to a reporter in 1987. It gets better. The Washington Times has reported Bush saying, " the greatest freedom...

Does Belief in a God Approved Army Harm?
I saw a trailer on the internet that was brutally honest about the indoctrination of fundamentalist children. The film is called "Jesus Camp." It follows three children as they attend a fundamentalist Bible camp. Just from what little the trailer showed, I could see how real the concept of God's...

Does One Really Need the Supernatural to be Happy?
I must confess there is something that I can’t understand. The one constant human question is “Why?” Why are humans around? Why does the Earth exist? Why do things happen that are unexplained? Why, why, why-there’s never a shortage. If there’s one thing man will never run out of, it’s curiosity....

The Holy Bible Should be Banned From Walmart...And This is Why
I have decided to post a petition that is being sent to Walmart. The writer has laid out the case for banning the Holy Bible from Walmart shelves in a logical and reasonable manner. Whatever your religion, these facts can't be disputed. To be sent on November 1, 2006 TO: Lee Scott President and CEO...

Science Proves the Six Day Creation Theory....Maybe
Creationist theorists are at it again. This time they've twisted science to prove the bible's six day creation story. Of course, they've done what true science abhors-start with a conclusion and find the evidence. Creationists seem to love working backwards. They also like to oversimplify. These...

Reverse Discrimination Alive and Well in Christian Community...
The other day my father had a Christian tell him that she was going to try to persuade him to come back to Christ. My father had told the group he is training with for Schwans that he is an Atheist. What I find interesting is that this is so clearly a case of reverse discrimination. If my father had...
