Saved Shmaved

Have you ever asked yourself just what it is that you are actually being saved from? Yeah, I know all about the original sin idea, nice plan, you have to give the people who made that one up credit for being so inventive. It is easily the best scam ever invented. An invisible plague infects all who... Sign in to see full entry.

The new age of misinformation

There is currently a trend unfolding within North America that has adherents to the Christian religions performing a great disservice to our societies, as they attempt to advance their agendas. Which range from denying gays the right to marry, to having creationism taught in the schools and cover...

Number one with a bullet - thanx knuckleheads

Judging by the fact that this blog has been hovering around number one on Blogit for a few hours today, and after noticing great movement in my blog click counter, a number of people that normally do not read this blog have stopped in within the last few hours... thank you.

A warning for a few bloggers

Yep, I did it again, went to comment on a post that was referring to people's behavior in general terms and found myself walking into the tail end of a blog war. It is sometimes hard to determine if real people are the subject of these types of posts as the lack of identifiable reference can be... Sign in to see full entry.

Practical religious and spiritual beliefs

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...

Know what you are talking about before arguing!

You would think that having at least a rudimentary knowledge of what you are arguing against would be a no brainer for most people but surprisingly this consideration escapes some folks. This is demonstrated for us time and time again while discussing the theory of evolution. Many creationists or... Sign in to see full entry.

Please cure me from my pornography addiction?

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 to "curing" the self induced need lies within the will of the individual.

How long has mankind been on this planet?

How can we not be concerned as to where our country is headed when a simple question is posed in a public forum and the majority of people in our society give an answer from the bible? This would not be a concern if the question actually pertained to the bible but in this case the question posed... Sign in to see full entry.

What happened on this day 2,007 years ago?

Well first off it wasn't likely on this day, nor was it likely 2,007 years ago but minor facts and details aside: Yeshua bar Yosef had been publicly executed in a horrible fashion typical of the time period, on the day previous.

Impressed with bloggers discussing religion

I was watching CNN again last night, I know, I know, I have to stop doing that. Anyways, Anderson Cooper was moderating a discussion between a proponent of teaching intelligent design (ID) in science classes and a research scientist who was representative of the scientific community. Boy... what a... Sign in to see full entry.
