Blog DescriptionAttempting to provide a different perspective on the things that we have come to accept and believe but this time around with a much mellower tone. Make no mistake however, patience with the bible lobotomized, (or those rendered dysfunctional by any holy book for that matter), is still in short supply. All I would ask anyone to consider is this; we all have a penchant to default to the notion of respecting the beliefs of others, my first response when someone tries to play that card against me is always the same . . .

For example: how many times have you heard someone say "this country was founded, built and made great by following Christian values." then a few short breaths later say something to the effect of: "this...

Billy Graham appears on Larry KingFlipping through the channels yesterday evening I happened across Larry King interviewing the aging Rev. Billy Graham. The ever crazy Graham was rattling off some nonsense of how he can prove all of the bible's fairy tales, Lucifer cast out of heaven to become Satan and that how Satan is alive and...

Okay so it is reasoning a la Homer Simpson but for the most part determining what is wrong with the world today is not easy. Invariably, determining the causes of our problems become blurred with...

In that time we have seen many bloggers come and go for a variety of reasons. Some simply never caught the blogging bug while others left in dissapointment.

Further expanded to include those persons who are incapable of comprehending anything but the simplest of concepts.

To me it's pretty sad when a pre-requisit of subscription to anything is that one is asked not to use their entire mental faculty.
