WHAT IS SEX ANYWAY?

There is a segment of the populace that believes that sex is given to us from God, that it is a sacrament, much as eucharist and marriage and baptism (only somehow without the entire liturgy that goes with it [however, I am certain that somewhere someone has come up with a liturgy for sex {hard to...

WHATS THE BIG DEAL ABOUT CHRISTMAS ANYWAY?

Christians have such a problem with the "secularization" of Christmas, as if the holiday is rigidly sacrosanct. Why? What is the big deal?

SCIENCE AND RELIGION ARE LIKE MARS

Remember when Mars was a god? You probably don't. Nobody does. That was a long time ago. Mars as a god disappeared into the mists of time millennia ago. However, about a century ago, Mars was supposed to have canals, with water and all that, well laid out in straight lines, hence the abode of... Sign in to see full entry.

I HAVE HAD PRAYERS ANSWERED -- AND STILL DO!!! (inspired by cantey_1975

My god is as powerful as any. cantey_1975 's post about speaking tongues reminded me in a manner of speaking. He was saying that "tongues" were praying away from regular speech so as to allow the spirit within to speak; and that got me to thinking that certain prayers are not that at all, but wishes...

That's the story, folks!! Too many cannot relinquish the archaic idea of god that they embrace. However, I understand. This is what they understand. They cannot conceive of anything else.

DEAD MAN WRITES SCRIPTURE!!!!!

The epistles of the apostle -- that's what we're talking about. On a history channel offering, one of the scholars mentioned that the letters to Timothy and Titus were written after the Apostle Paul's death -- way after his death, so that he could not possibly have written it.

CHRISTIANS TELL US THAT GOD REWARDS EVIL

They say that God has blessed America. They say because of its goodness. I have written here a very short outline of the atrocities, etc. committed by the U.S. in seeking its Manifest Destiny, against native Americans, Hispanics, those of Black African descent, and of corporate atrocities against...
