A segment of a post I use every Christmas

The persona of Jesus Christ has influenced mankind to a degree that no other individual in human history has. He is considered the personification of all desirable human qualities, further representing; all that is good, consideration of the rights of others and is ultimately the embodiment of all...

Merry Christmas - it was all a mistake

I've received a follow up email to my e-card. It was apparently all a big misunderstanding. I was supposed to find humor in it but instead I got annoyed. This would pass as an explanation if there had been any kind of note or information with the e-card This is the risk people take when contacting... Sign in to see full entry.


We wish you a horrible Christmas

In my last post I spoke of how sick I am of hearing about the unnecessary controversy over the word "Christmas".... I've come to learn that many people feel the same way but for reasons as varied as what Christmas means to each individual. Somehow, somewhere in this mix of sentiments, some bible...

Are you sick of hearing about the word Christmas yet?

I sure am. I was listening to a radio call in show yesterday as I was driving. All I can say after listening to the voice of the common man is that some people have lost their minds over this unnecessary controversy. At the base of it all is the issue of the promotion of one religion over all others... Sign in to see full entry.

For a haunted house - who you gonna call?

I had to laugh at a TV show I caught portions of the other night. This seemingly dimwitted couple found themselves living in a haunted house, a home they had just purchased. The first clue that something was amiss should have come from interviews with the house's former occupants who had experienced... Sign in to see full entry.

Why do you have no friends?

More specifically; why do you have no friends amongst those who do not share your religious beliefs? This is a reality for many people, a reality in which they have had a hand in proactively determining. Some folks never get past inherent human partisanship, we all seek the company of those of like... Sign in to see full entry.

Try to get your atheist bashing right

I just saw another article posted recently online that attempts to reinforce a number of posts found here on Blogit in the past. The list of all time atheist villains that "prove" how evil and insidious atheism is. You know the list: Adolph Hitler, Joseph Stalin, Pol Pot and Mao Tse Tung. They are...

Is it time to let the loonies have this category back?

As this blog approaches 25,000 clicks, I find myself examining all that has been accomplished from the effort of posting so much material over such a long period of time. This is one of those moments when you reach for the big nurf hammer and beat yourself over the head with it continually. A few... Sign in to see full entry.

Egypt's remarkable Virgin Mary sightings

... and they were remarkable. Recently I was reminded of the story of the 1968 Virgin Mary sightings in Egypt. I remember them from that time period as I was in the last few months of my time at the catholic mission school. I had to listen to every delirious detail from the nuns of how the earth was...

Bible thumping loonies needed

I never thought that I would say it but the discussion of matters pertaining to religion, religious belief and the behavior of adherents to religious belief, has become a little boring. Where I am grateful to all of those who stop by this blog on a regular basis to add to things that I have posted... Sign in to see full entry.
