Jesus may have died for your sins but he sure as hell didn't die for mine

That would be because when I was a baby, I was innocent. I'm not sure how you were born into this world, or how it is that you had a rap laid on you as a whelping brat but I didn't know anything when I was born, certainly not enough to be guilty of some trumped up charges. I could not have possibly... Sign in to see full entry.

If there is one subject that has recurred on Blogit that has indicated that some people's thinking is in the stone age, it is the subject of homosexuality. From those who would suggest that it is a sin and an abomination in the eyes of God, to those who just cannot get past their inherent... Sign in to see full entry.

Is one little setback going to stop the Intelligent Design proponents?

Hardly, for the most part they are now wandering around muttering catch phrases such as "the battle has been lost but not the war" while decrying the "scientific conspiracy" being implemented against them in conjunction with a liberal and completely biased media. If you have been off of the planet... Sign in to see full entry.

Writing a topical religious article --- for Christmas next year

In the battle over Christmas, just what are you complaining about? There are some that have elevated the minor bruhaha of the use of the word "Christmas" to a full blown battle, too bad the majority of us could not care less. As a very obscure minority deems the continued use of the word favours one... Sign in to see full entry.

Are you as glad as I am that this Christmas season is almost over?

Every year since I can remember people have lamented the over-commercialization of Christmas. The willingness to bleet this time worn complaint, renders it as nothing more than a mindless mantra, repeated and proliferated, simply because it is the right thing to say. No one actually does anything... Sign in to see full entry.

Pixies, Fairies, Goblins and Leprechauns - are they real?

Every mature culture on this planet has some form of folklore that includes the magical little people of the forest or a simular type of manifestation. Though the credence of the existence of these elusive creatures has eroded dramatically in conjunction with the ever broadening knowledge base of... Sign in to see full entry.

About Psuedo sciences and the supernatural

I am amazed at how many people I run into in the 21st century that ascribe so much weight in their discernment to the supernatural and the psuedo sciences. It does stand to reason that in any group of human beings there will be some with heightened, or well developed cognative abilities, but to so... Sign in to see full entry.

Now that Christmas is over we can start hating our neighbours again?

Of course I would not be a proponent of this development if it was a conscious action but it is a very real change in collective sentiment that occurs at some point after every Christmas. Every human being that I know goes through this transformation in varying degrees. From those who change a la... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm saved for sure now - a day spent with the God Squad

The holidays really begin for me today. It's pretty sad when you are just waiting for Christmas day to end but that is the frame of mind I find myself in every year. Mostly because I am aquiescing to the wishes of others, playing taxi for just about anyone that needs a ride and playing "go fetch"... Sign in to see full entry.

I don't much care about the name of the holiday season debate

When a society puts so much energy into a debate, the outcome of which will not significantly affect that society, at least in any meaningful way, it is ultimately a wasted effort. An effort accomplishing nothing more than promoting divisiveness. There are so many more important things in this world... Sign in to see full entry.
