SKEPTICAMP COLORADO 2010 ROCKED

this last Saturday I attended and took part of SkeptiCamp Colorado 2010. It was a gathering of local skeptics getting together to " focus on distributing knowledge within communities of skeptics." A big part of it was that everyone was encouraged to participate by doing some kind of presentation. Me... Sign in to see full entry.

IF MEDICAL MARIJUANA IS DOING THIS, THINK WHAT LEGALIZING IT WOULD DO

Read this here first. There is no doubt that just medical marijuana is helping to boost the economy. Now what would happen if we got over the BS nonsense and just legalized it fully? It would be a real boost all across the country. We would see job growth and city and state budgets would start to... Sign in to see full entry.

"NO,NO, IT'S DIFFERENT THIS TIME. WE'RE NOT LIKE THEM"

It really amazes me at how little people learn from history. The patterns are there. We see it over and over again, and yet too many people think far too highly of themselves and repeat the same mistakes and cruelty of past generations all the while making the claim "this time it's different, we're...

A LOGICAL ARGUMENT AS TO WHY WE ARE NOT A CHRISTIAN NATION

I was sent this blog here and loved how it said everything I had been saying myself for some time now. He presents a great argument right away with the simple fact of the first line of the First Amendment in the Bill of Rights straight out says we are not to ever be a country based on ANY religion...

IS IT POSSIBLE FOR CONSERVATIVE FUNDAMENTALISTS TO NOT BE HYPOCRITES?

One thing that never seems to go away, but has driven me crazy in trying to deal with conservative fundamentalist thinking is that they seem 100% clueless about their own hypocrisy. These are the people who went off on how evil, vile, cruel and nasty it was for ONE guy to create a Sarah Palin effigy... Sign in to see full entry.

EXPRESSING FREEDOM OF SPEECH IS UNAMERICAN

That is what I was more or less told that today by a conservative who even said she did not read the comment she was putting down. Basically she said anyone who did not blindly agree with what a post said was no an American. The post itself was a clear piece of propaganda and highly suspicious as to...
