Asking others to support your delusion.

Just this morning I had a neighbour who hasn't spoken to me in 15 years decide that today was the day to break his silence. Lucky me, but it won't be long before he stops speaking to me again, at least with any real luck. This guy is a devout something or other, I'm not quite sure what you call a...

Dealing with losers -- like waddya do when they just don't get it?

Time after time while here on Blogit I have had some person from a modest status in life, with limited comprehensive ability and/or education try to take me on. Their motives are always the same, I write a blog about religion that some find offensive, their only motive is to try to discredit the... Sign in to see full entry.

What exactly is Secular Humanism?

Numerous times over the years I have had people suggest that my life guiding principles align with those of Secular Humanism. A natural reaction from someone such as myself, who would like to think that every philosophy that I live by is an original thought derived from my own intellect is to rankle...

Another bible thumper spouts off about athiests -- so here's a reply

As for your depiction of what you think you know about athiests and particularly me who happens not to be an athiest, maybe you could also let us know how you are able to so completely fill in all of my character assessments without actually knowing me? A cold heart filled with hatred and detracting... Sign in to see full entry.

The evolution revolution or was The Flintstones cartoons a documentary?

I don't think that we can ever be surprised at the lengths people will go to in making a point. It doesn't even seem to matter when religion is involved, if the point itself has any credence. This can be said about a relatively new movement that wants oh so desperately to teach people the "truth"... Sign in to see full entry.

Hey - I'm a good Christian -- no laughing now

In the past few days I helped an old family friend do a little HTML programming for a web page that will be selling home made quilts. It was nothing really and I was glad to help. There are still a number of people in my age group, who not of the computer generation, have trouble with the simplest... Sign in to see full entry.

Yet again we are treated to a scandal amongst the faithful

I use the word "faithful" loosley as completely and utterly deluded is much more accurate. In the city where I live, the police recently arrested 4 leaders of a Baptist church for diddling their young male and female parishioners. The sick and depraved are found anywhere in society and it is... Sign in to see full entry.

The Christian Identity Movement --- do you have the sense to be afraid?

So just what is the Christian Identity Movement? There is not one clear cut answer as three answers can be correct. 1. it was a name given to those who were trying desperately to bridge a major disconnect in the bible by drawing a tenuous link between all countries with British/European influence or...

THE DAY I THREW MY BIBLE IN THE GARBAGE

AS I MENTIONED BEFORE, DOUBTS ABOUT WHAT WAS BEING DRILLED INTO MY HEAD STARTED VERY EARLY FOR ME. Around the age of eleven I started asking questions. Apparently uncomfortable questions, as the reaction from the nuns could only be described as hostile. In the Spring of 68, at age 14 I had finally... Sign in to see full entry.

I must have Tourette's Syndrome -- I can't stop my mouth from speaking

Tourette's Syndrome: is a neurological dysorder that can manifest itself in uncontrollable actions on the part of the afflicted individual. Typically these actions take the form of facial or body twitches, sometimes audible sounds and even a series of words or sentences muttered repetitively.....I... Sign in to see full entry.
