Thursday, July 14, 2005A Comment from the PopeI heard on the radio this morning amused me, and made me wonder about how intelligent he really is! He is against the Harry Potter books because they promote sorcery! First, does he realize how many new readers he has encouraged to read the series by his remark? It's not that Rowling needds more...

My response is: Well, I can't speak for all the people to whom you refer, but I can answer for myself. Religion and religious beliefs ( NOT to be confused with spirituality, which requires no church) have led to more wars, family disagreements,...

I am willing to concede that, if there is a god, that god works within a framework of physics, mathematics, chemistry and other sciences. Sure, maybe such a god would have created those sciences, but would then work within them. There is conjecture that the laws of physics may vary from...

I was reading an article about evolution and the claims of creationists that the Earth is around 6,000 years old. Most ordinary Christians don't even believe that! Most ordinary Christians fit their beliefs into their scientific minds quite... Sign in to see full entry.Monday, July 4, 2005If Only . . . .Since Rev. Billy Graham has been in the news lately, I did a bit of research on him. If only those I have called shamsters on this blog were more like Billy Graham, religion would have a much better name. Rev. Graham has actually tried his best to live the life he preaches, and to influence those he...

First, Cruise is no authority on medicine and is an idiot for voicing his opinions on health issues. Second, if his beliefs mirror the beliefs of Scientologists (wasn't this religion started by a Science Fiction Author, L. Ron... Sign in to see full entry.

The Church, I must admit, has learned to be more subtle, but essentailly the same. Oh, and to balance things out, the Protestant denominations are just as bad. Examples? Why sure; but I'll let all y'all go...
