Blog DescriptionAttempting to provide a different perspective on the things that we have come to accept and believe but this time around with a much mellower tone. Make no mistake however, patience with the bible lobotomized, (or those rendered dysfunctional by any holy book for that matter), is still in short supply. All I would ask anyone to consider is this; we all have a penchant to default to the notion of respecting the beliefs of others, my first response when someone tries to play that card against me is always the same . . . "you first"

Friday, May 19, 2006Listen up numbnutIf you think that this post is speaking directly to you, it probably is. I know all of the atheists and agnostics in this cyber community or at least most of them. It is not just a coincidence that these individuals are all good cyber citizens who routinely demonstrate considerate behaviour towards...

"If you erroneously believe in God, you lose nothing (assuming that death is the absolute end), whereas if you correctly believe in God, you gain everything (eternal bliss). But...

After reading a few postings lately on this site filled with utter nonsense, I ask myself why I would ever want to be even remotely like any of these people that would disparage others for not...

You say I'm brainwashed, but in turn I could easily say that you...

I am not a health care professional and considering that most people I dialogue with on the subject of religion are not health care professionals either, I prefer to use the word "delusional", primarly because it has a commonly understood and...

The inevitable fatigue coming after hearing the same boneheaded remarks left as comments to the point of nausea. You know the types of comments. Pleas to dumb it down and just believe, regardless of...

There is a school of thought that...

Sometimes the stories were too ridiculous to be believed, even for an undeveloped brain of a pre-teen....

"gomedome, you know, its funny how both the believer and the non-believer each refer to or think of the other as being "shackled" and think of themselves as being "set free." Now I didn't post...

Observations over my lifetime have demonstrated for me that those claiming to be searching for the truth are looking for anything but the truth. They are looking for re-affirmation of their beliefs,... Sign in to see full entry. |
