After math of Halloween

As a family we went to my aunt's house. She had food and everything there. Most of her neighbors stopped in at some point and hung out and talked and such. She lives in a very close neighborhood where everyone know everyone else. I took my three-year old out to trick-or-treat. My 7 month old just... Sign in to see full entry.

The Truth about Halloween, part 2

Another supposed aspect of Halloween is ritual sacrifices. Now when Christianity took form all religions did ritual sacrifices, it was just the thing of the day. In the Old Testament Moses not only has the Ten Commandment, but he also was given details instructions of how to build and alter to God... Sign in to see full entry.

The Truth about Halloween

I have read many, many articles and such put out by churches about Halloween. They have no idea what they are talking about. I read one that said the Druids started it all, including dressing up and trick-or-treating. Anything a church hands out about Halloween is misguided propaganda and shouldn't...

Satan, what's that all about?

Supposedly Satan is the cause of all the bad stuff and suffering somehow because he is so powerful that he can make us do his bidding if we let him. I don't believe this. I read a article talking about who Satan was. In early translations of the Bible Satan was not a individual, but more of a role... Sign in to see full entry.

IT'S THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT

Another big thing that bothers me about religions is this apparent desire for the world to end. I remember several times in the last few decades why one religion declared that the world would on such and such a date. In fact one night for fun me and some friend went driving around enjoying ourselves... Sign in to see full entry.

Why would God want us to feel like we are worthless?

"Were it not for Jesus Christ, I would be a complete and total screw-up." This is a quote from another's Blog. When I read this I was stunned. Is this what religion is teaching people? We are worthless compared to God. Here is more from her Blog. "Chris rants and raves about how mean the God of the... Sign in to see full entry.

Did Jesus have siblings?

This has to be one of the dumbest things that keeps coming up. For some reason a large group of people want Mary to have remained a virgin for her whole life. That makes no sense at all. A married couple in those times who were not trying to have as many children as possible would be considered... Sign in to see full entry.

Why can't we all just get along?

One of the biggest problems I see in the world is organized religions not getting along with each other. It is why the Middle East is as bad as it is. Too many religious people not agreeing with each and using their religion as a reason to attack their neighbors. They don't want to compromise or... Sign in to see full entry.

Eternal life, who wants that?

Even if I did believe in the Bible, I'm not so sure I would want to accept Jesus. The reward for believing is eternal life in heaven. That's a reward? I don't have any desire to live forever. So heaven is suppose to be perfect and you get all that you desire, right. How boring would that be? At some... Sign in to see full entry.

Why can't a Catholics' Wedding be about the couple?

I have been to several Catholic wedding and funerals and I was very upset by both. The Catholics seem to not care about the people who the service is for. The Priest would rather read all kind of passages that have nothing to with who is getting married or who died. Why be so withdrawn from people... Sign in to see full entry.
