Deal or no deal

We have arrived in the 21st century with vast numbers of our species still believing the religious constructs that were developed by our primitive ancestors. It seems to matter not how ludicrous some of the yarns we have inherited are, somehow great numbers of people with modern era educations are... Sign in to see full entry.

How do atheists cope?

Recently a fellow blogger asked the question posed in the blog title followed by a number of qualifying questions as seen in italics below. Where I do not consider myself an atheist, my degree of agnosticism borders on atheism and besides; no one else took a stab at the questions. "When you are all... Sign in to see full entry.

So you wanna give us heathens a spiritual message?

Being a spiritual leader seems to be a lot tougher than it looks, at least judging by some of the difficulties those around here who have claimed to be spiritual leaders are experiencing. I guess that is to be expected. Once a person clambers up onto a perch and declares themselves a spiritual... Sign in to see full entry.

So Captain Righteousness - where's the outrage?

This is a post addressed to any one with claims of being proponents of all that is right. Especially those I have had to endure.

To anyone who objects to what they read in this blog, I suggest that you leave right now and don't come back. It is your right to disagree with every word I post, if it bothers you why do you let it?

The problem with self defining morality

We need not look any further than Osama Bin Laden to see a glaring example of an individual who has defined the rules of morality (amongst other things) that by virtue of his own perverted perspective, he is willing to force on others. This sick and twisted man is unfortunately not alone in this... Sign in to see full entry.

Basic English for Stupid Short Order Bakers

Following is the widely accepted definition of the word morality: Morality: "(from the Latin moralitas "manner, character, proper behaviour") has three principal meanings. In its first descriptive usage, morality means a code of conduct held to be authoritative in matters of right and wrong, whether... Sign in to see full entry.

The Christian bogeyman

And that of course is your garden variety, standard issue and run of the mill atheist. They are ruining society covertly despite their small numbers, that is, when they aren't sacrificing chickens, worshipping nothing and generally doing the bidding of Satan. If there is one thing that has been made... Sign in to see full entry.

Goodbye and Good Riddance

It isn't often that I feel this way about a departed blogger. While acknowledging that just about any prolific contributor to this site is generally good for this community, this is not always the case. Any contributor that interferes with other site users and/or causes them to reconsider their... Sign in to see full entry.

God is like smoking

... and that ain't "like smoking" in valley girl talk ala Jim Carrie's character from the movie "The Mask", I mean like smoking tobacco products.
