Practical life guiding precepts

When we look at the world today we see large groups of people all around the globe entrenched in ancient religious constructs. It seems that proliferation of, and conforming to these religions has all but overshadowed the elevation of the individual to be more or better than they are. One group...

A pointed question - too tough for most people

So are you ready to answer a direct question honestly? Okay, here goes: How many scientists do you know? I'll go first; two I've met in real life, one I met on Blogit. This question may not seem as the blog headline suggests in being "too tough for most people" but let me explain further. Amongst... Sign in to see full entry.

Truth Decay

If there is one constant in the universe that is as consistent as the advancement of time, it is that religious folks like to play fast and loose with the truth. It seems that none of us can escape death, taxes and religious whoppers. The yarns religious folks tell take many forms; there are many... Sign in to see full entry.

Atheist bashers resume their knucklehead ways

It is always rather amusing to read some of the Blogit offerings of those who have rigid perspectives pertaining to beliefs. It seems to matter not if they have any of idea of what they speak, they simply voice their opinions anyways. Affirmation for their half baked assessments seems to be easily...

Where did the idea of the Rapture come from?

I always find the "periphery" of religious interpretations rather intriguing. If an individual takes the time to follow the development of some of the things that have now become widely held beliefs, in most instances there will be a clear and concise path from the concept, through its elaboration...

Future Religious Trends

We can reasonably assume that when mankind first appeared on this planet, that the vast majority of our species believed in some form of God or gods. Where we must make assumptions in this regard, by the same token it cannot be refuted unless based on a similar type of assumption. What we know of... Sign in to see full entry.

Online belief system selector

Have you ever wondered just what the heck you would call what you believe? If you are like most people who's beliefs lie outside of mainstream religious dogma, or are an eclectic mix of what you feel are hand picked, workable philosophies, the "label" for what you believe may not be readily...

If life is discovered on another planet . . . .

How would your religious beliefs be affected? If there is one commonality to be found in all religious dogma that cannot be refuted, it is that they are entirely terran based (of this Earth). Aside from a few passages amongst the collective of mankind's holy scriptures that could possibly be... Sign in to see full entry.

The MENSA member who graduated from Harvard

Anyone who has been on this site for a couple of years will remember the self proclaimed MENSA member who graduated from Harvard. That would be the same guy that attempted to refute the scientific theory of evolution with a post entitled "Darwin's Big Bang Theory". We can point to this example as an...

Welcome depraved sons and daughters of Adam

As I have said before, many of the religious crazies we have seen here on Blogit aren't so bad. Most pale in comparison to some of the industrial strength religious numbnuts roaming the streets. I don't know what compelled me to do it but while editing an old blog, I tripped across a link to... Sign in to see full entry.
