A secular humanist Christmas

In the past I have had people describe me as a secular humanist, at least in terms of how I come across in discussing religious beliefs. I have no problem with that, I've been called worse things. We are in the middle of yet another final countdown to Christmas, where most people are in a frenzied... Sign in to see full entry.

#1 in Religion and Spirituality category again, thanx to my adversaries

It really is too funny when you think about it. It is a foible of this blogging site that the more controversy surrounding a blog entry, the more attention it will receive. Where the humour comes in, is that there are people out there in Blogitville that would like to see this blog, or any divergent...

Yet again I am asked why I wind up bible thumpers?

Because I can?...no, that's not a real answer but I do have to ask when people are going to catch on? When is the answer to this great mystery going to come to you as a revelation? When is it going to sink in and when, oh when, are you going to learn your lessons? The word "you" being a collective... Sign in to see full entry.

Suffering the insufferable

It is not often that I become so crass as to brag about my exploits in life, or talents that I may possess. Many are not as fortunate as I am, while at the same time I am not as fortunate as many others. I think that most people except the extremely fortunate can say the same thing and I think we...

I want to lose the blog but don't want to lose the comments

So, I'll just re-write the blog and leave the comments, though they won't make any sense. So what else is new?...tomorrow's blog will be about the new job my 82 year old mother just landed, driving a concrete truck. Sign in to see full entry.

What is wrong with this world today?

Well first off we have to stop adopting war orphans. Foreigners are even taking our babies' jobs. Okay so it is reasoning a la Homer Simpson but for the most part determining what is wrong with the world today is not easy. Invariably, determining the causes of our problems become blurred with...

Do you hold a person's beliefs against them? >>>>>>>

Most people will answer this in the negative. "No not me, never, why I think that freedom of religious expression is paramount to having a free society...harrumph"....but the reality is much different. Different to the extent that those who do not harbour at least some form of inherent prejudice... Sign in to see full entry.

Are all of the insufferable Christians we meet going to apologize someday?

It is a given that people must believe in something, many must include a form of worship in their beliefs, this is also a given. It is part of the human make up, a means for most to make a bit of sense out of why we are here and where we may end up after we are here. This has always been so and is...

How about a dose of reality for a change?

Continually we hear people speaking of spreading a message of love for our fellow man. We will even hear people stand up and proclaim that they are living a life of love for their fellow man and their God, is a God of love etc. etc. All we need is love, everybody now. Yeah okay but at what point do... Sign in to see full entry.

We've heard much talk about creationism versus evolution but no one has

mentioned any of our specie's greatest unanswered questions. The general theme of a rebuttal to those supporting evolution goes along the lines of; "if man descended from apes, why do apes still exist concurrently with our species?" We could also add the general distaste of the notion that we, as an... Sign in to see full entry.
