Welcome to the atheist nation

Throughout the entire history of mankind, there has never been a country or state that has been comprised of a citizenry that was entirely atheist. All examples that come to mind in attempting to refute this statement quickly crumble by virtue of not meeting the one singular criteria of "a citizenry... Sign in to see full entry.

Church basement biology

One of the things that still surprises me about the opinions of contributors to the religion and spirituality category here on Blogit, is the extent to which they have developed what they believe premised upon misconception. When first subjected to commenter after commenter wandering into this blog... Sign in to see full entry.

Disposable science, use only when it backs your opinions

Have you ever noticed the love/hate relationship that some religious folks have with the scientific community? In one breath they will utilize science as a means of backing their arguments, in the next breath they will be telling us of conspiracies and lies perpetrated by scientists. Somehow all of...

Some words of inspiration

"The folkish-minded man, in particular, has the sacred duty, each in his own denomination, of making people stop just talking superficially of God's will, and actually fulfill God's will, and not let God's word be desecrated." "For God's will gave men their form, their essence, and their abilities.... Sign in to see full entry.

What does the future hold for the American populace?

One of the interesting aspects of Blogit and especially this category, is how it is completely dominated by American views on religious beliefs, creation, evolution and society in general. What is particularly interesting about this is that the USA stands alone in the world as a progressive... Sign in to see full entry.

Prejudice as a religious institution

There are people in this world that confuse, distort, obfuscate, manipulate and edit any part of any given religious message that they feel necessary, in furtherance of their own agendas. It becomes particularly tragic when this is done to promote and proliferate a perspective that not only... Sign in to see full entry.

What could God possibly look like or be?

Implying that I have never considered the existence of an omnipotent creator being is probably the most common of indignation I must endure from the faithful here on Blogit. To them, I simply rose from bed one day and declared that I was a non believer. When I look out the window and see a tree for... Sign in to see full entry.

My daily attack on your imaginary God

Of course I'm gonna pay for doing such a thing. The big guy apparently reads this blog, probably before I have even written it and this will eventually cause him to get so pissed at me that he will shoot a lightning bolt at me where the sun don't shine. Yeeeeoooow, that's gonna hurt... when it... Sign in to see full entry.

Why not believing in God makes me better than you

It's just a blog headline so lighten up... but there is a point to that sentence; it is the converse or opposite of a sentiment often expressed towards non believers. Simply remove the word "not" from the blog headline "Why believing in God makes me better than you" and you end up with a notion that... Sign in to see full entry.

Those damned atheist commies

I always get a chuckle or two out of some of the misconceptions derived from propaganda and proliferated by people of otherwise reasonable intelligence. It is particularly amusing when that which they say with such conviction does not hold up to any form of reasonable scrutiny. Such is the still... Sign in to see full entry.
