I'll see you in hell

According to a number of bible thumping loonies and feeble minded fundies that have stopped into this blog over the years, I am without any room for doubt, going straight to hell when I die. No ands, ifs, or buts, eternal suffering in a molten lake of fire is how I am going to spend eternity. This... Sign in to see full entry.

Achieving total color blindness

We have witnessed post after post over the years here on Blogit where people speak of spirituality, their beliefs and what they feel is morality.

A topic I have never discussed - Abortion

Typically when in dialog with some believers who stop into this blog from time to time, I am assigned beliefs and positions on certain subjects because in their minds anyone who does not believe in a traditionally defined God holds these positions. In their minds, my politics are liberal even though... Sign in to see full entry.

More telltale signs you have had too much religion

I don't really give a flying fig what your mother, your preacher, or your favorite TV evangelist told you, there has never been a person on this planet that has any idea what happens to us after we die. There never will be a person on this planet that can tell us what happens to us after we die. A... Sign in to see full entry.

Telltale signs you have had too much religion

It has been my observation in life that both belief in God and non belief are represented by the entire realm of the human intellectual spectrum.

Reaching the obvious conclusions concerning gays

It is a fair statement to make that people who are of the Christian religions utilize a combination of what they believe are condemnations supported by doctrine and inherent heterosexual prejudice to arrive at their conclusions pertaining to homosexuality. It is also a fair statement to make that of... Sign in to see full entry.
