The Bible Thumper's Comprehensive Guide to not embarrassing themselves

After reading far too many agenda laden posts written by fervant believers attempting to advance whatever it is they are trying to collectively promote (besides our destruction of course). I figured that maybe they should start with the basics: Not completely embarrassing themselves when they wander... Sign in to see full entry.

So, some people do actually get the message

I felt it was important to delete the last posting once my request was fullfilled. It was simply an exercise to see if some people are actually capable of receiving and understanding what I think is an important message. This Blogit site can be a big place, no one has to engage in any from of... Sign in to see full entry.

We have our own bible thumping knuckleheads thank you - >>>>>

So Canada is in the final weeks of a federal election campaign where we elect a new Prime Minister (sort of like a president but with a smaller personal airplane). We have the socialists promising to impose fiscal insanity to make sure they "protect" the little guy, or the common working man as they... Sign in to see full entry.

Nothing is irrational about worshipping a dead guy nailed to some boards?

On the contrary, it is very irrational. Even a thorough understanding of human nature does not begin to explain the power that these types of irrational beliefs have over the the thought processes of too many people. There are those amongst us that make every determination in their lives based on... Sign in to see full entry.

Watch out for them thar "Intellectual fascists"

We've seen this term bandied about here on Blogit a few times in the past. I myself have been accused of being an intellectual fascist but what the heck does it mean? In any real sense, the term intellectual fascist does not mean anything. It is more a plea to dumb it down than anything, made by...

Do you have to include me in your craziness?

For the most part, I am happy to let people believe whatever they must believe, whatever gives them comfort or helps them through the day. It wouldn't occur to me to include the unwilling in my beliefs, nor do I feel anyone has the right to impose their belief system on another. So why is it that so... Sign in to see full entry.

If they step out of line, just club them over the head with your bible

Is there another literary work on this planet that has caused mankind to develop amnesia, selective reasoning, heightened emotions and raging anger, to the degree that the bible has? I cannot think of one and often wonder how mankind would have progressed if it did not exist? But that answer is all... Sign in to see full entry.

If you mention to anyone on the street, at work or anywhere, that all of the Earth's resources are finite and that we will begin running out of a few things soon, invariably one response is forthcoming. People just shrug their shoulders. Maybe add something to the effect of "Uhhhh.....waddya want me... Sign in to see full entry.

A reply to a comment by Xeno-x about scapular medals - what are they?

In simple language, a scapular medal is just another ticket to heaven and also a shortcut. If you die while wearing one, on the first Saturday after your death, the Virgin Mary herself will take you by the hand and lead you into heaven. Really, no kidding, a ticket to heaven with express check in.... Sign in to see full entry.

One more time I am villified by a wacko Christian fundie

Of course no names were mentioned, nor am I going to mention any names but even when the main target of this individual's post was someone else, it was somehow justified by them to throw a few shots at me. For the most part I could not care less, an imbalanced person's negative opinion of me, or... Sign in to see full entry.
