Stuff your imaginary Satan where the sun don't shine

When I first arrived on Blogit a few years ago, I was a little surprised to find so many people of adult age that believed that the mythical entity, referred to as Satan, was a real corporeal being. Reading references to the threat of Satanism, the actions of Satanic cults and violence or "evil"... Sign in to see full entry.

Let's beat up the Catholics for awhile

Where I tend to shy away from using broad generalizations, the one I will be using a little later on is appropriate, as it true as a generalization but first a little background; I was brought up in a strict Catholic environment. From an early age I began to realize that what the Catholics have... Sign in to see full entry.

What is your idea of heaven?

When I was a little brushcut numbnut of around 8 years old and believed in such things as heaven and hell, I had a clear idea of what heaven would be like. 3 meals a day of ice cream, any flavor you wanted, recess was all day long and you could stay up past 10:00PM anytime you felt like it. Suffice... Sign in to see full entry.

The things they didn't tell you

... and hope you never figure out on your own. All of what you believe as a North American Christian who is not a Catholic, are beliefs that have been defined in the past few hundred years. Though the central icon of your religion, Jesus Christ, died about 2 thousand years ago, the vast majority of... Sign in to see full entry.

Have your beliefs failed you miserably?

It's a fair question considering how many people have demonstrated for us that their beliefs have in fact failed them miserably. Where we can never lose sight of the fact that some of the crazier people we have met on this site are only representative of their own views, they have all been selling...

A screenshot of my Blogit block list

Since the time they introduced the blocking feature on this site, I've rarely used it. I can still count on one hand how many people I have had to block over the years with only one person ever being blocked permanently. Now that the permanently blocked blogger in question is long gone, it was time... Sign in to see full entry.

Who created God?

It's not an entirely stupid question. The most common of perceptions pertaining to creation are that one singular being, timeless in origin, omnipotent, etc. etc. willed everything into existence with his (invariably masculine) super powers. So where did this perception come from? Why one God, why... Sign in to see full entry.

Hellujah, God is great 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...

I was reading my bible for inspiration today when . . .

Actually, I made this blog title up, as a matter of fact, I cannot for the life of me figure out why so many people insist that the bible is a source of inspiration. There seems to be so many things written in it that one must completely ignore, that when it is all tallied up, only that which suits... Sign in to see full entry.

Back at the top of this category the easy way

Many a person on this site over the years has proclaimed that they could not care less about how their blog ranks. However, for the most part we can assume that despite common denials, blog rankings do matter in varying degrees to most people. It would be fair to say that there is no one who self...
