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 . . .

Thursday, June 26, 2008Hallelujah, God is great, he loves us all and I believe.Can you guess who this well known blogger is? (saying that it is a self portrait has already been used).... It is not actually meant to be anyone specifically but is intended more as a metaphor for those who's worldviews have been formed from limited experience and narrow perspective. There is not...

Grade 7 to be precise, we were all little brushcut numbnuts just beginning to comprehend the birds and the bees. "Beginning" is the operative word, information on the subject of human...

The societies themselves are different in so many ways, despite a common heritage of descendancy from the British Empire. Canadians kept their...

Bush's election strategy by appealing to the right wing evangelical vote. Yeah, we have bible thumpers in Canada just like in any other free country, the only difference here is that they are...

All the signs were there, it was only a matter of time when the false economy of artificially low fuel prices would adjust itself. Add the double whammy of this happening in conjunction with a dollar eroding in value, as well...

To alleviate this "boredome" I decided it was time to update and revamp this blog, it's template and the general topics of discussion. Waddaya think of this blog's new look?...

Excuse me for being a little uncompassionate but how does a person get addicted to pornography? As in all psychological addictions where there is no physical dependency on an identifyable substance, the answer...

Over the last few years we have seen more objections from persons who do not believe in God, or are of other religions than the majority Christian religions protest to being unwilling participants to...

Where a religious belief does not constitute, nor come close to meeting the criteria of what is considered a scientific...

I know it is not nice to laugh at those who are not playing with a full deck but when they keep adding their half baked opinions unswayed by facts, common sense and reason, they are simply asking for it. The evolution killer...... Sign in to see full entry. |
