Blog DescriptionAttempting to provide a different perspective on the things that we have come to accept and believe but this time around with a much mellower tone. Make no mistake however, patience with the bible lobotomized, (or those rendered dysfunctional by any holy book for that matter), is still in short supply. All I would ask anyone to consider is this; we all have a penchant to default to the notion of respecting the beliefs of others, my first response when someone tries to play that card against me is always the same . . . "you first"

Thursday, March 22, 2007I know about Jesus - the poor buggerHow else would you describe someone who suffered such a horrible public execution but as a "poor bugger"? The thought of such a horrific spectacle is something that must draw compassion from anyone. Or at least some sympathy for he and the countless other hapless individuals that suffered the same...

One of my favorites came to me from another blogger. In his attempts to convince me that Satan was a very real being that we should all learn to safeguard ourselves against,...

The second coming is imminent, it is only a matter of days if not hours, to hear some people tell it. My question is always the same to these people: How many times do you have to...

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...

From those who would suggest that it is a sin and an abomination in the eyes of God, to those who just cannot get past their inherent...

The single biggest reason that people will not accept the notion of multiple entities or a race of highly advanced beings intelligently designing our world and influencing the composition of known life forms is that it detracts from their preconceived...

Most of it is of the polite variety concerning further discussion of a subject of mutual interest. I've had one poor deluded (and apparently near sighted) young lady proclaim her undying love for me. Some of... Sign in to see full entry.Friday, March 16, 2007How many angels were kicked out of heaven?Part of Christian mythology has a great battle taking place in heaven just before creation. An insurrection led by the king of the bad guys Satan and his army of hapless bad angels. I think it is fair to refer to this war in heaven as "mythology" as it is certain that there were no witnesses. We...

Eventually they become angry that I am non receptive, almost invariably...

They are, after all, on the list of God's chosen people. It has to be a list these days; as the old list, with just the Jews on it as taken from the bible, didn't work. Someone, probably in a monastery somewhere sipping... Sign in to see full entry. |
