Dealing with people that you hate

I'm speaking of people that you hate, I don't actually hate anyone in this world. I do however attempt to reserve the proper levels of disdain for those who deserve it. White supremacists and pedophiles come to mind, there are probably more but none of this is actually relative to my point today. I... Sign in to see full entry.

Bhaskar.ing - I'm still wondering where our dialogue went wrong "but"

Nonetheless, I consider it all as simply a minor misunderstanding. We share a similar outlook pertaining to religious belief and the constructs of organized religion. From my perspective, it simply cannot be the way that many people are insistent that it is. In my part of the world; God is still... Sign in to see full entry.

I wanna be an iconoclast when I grow up

You will see the term "inconoclast" or references to the "iconoclastic blogger" bandied about here on Blogit. Yep, the one or two persons that use this term are speaking of little ol me and admittedly the term is not entirely inaccurate. The problem comes in as to how this definition was arrived at...

Who's side are you on?

I read a comment awhile back where one blogger asked another blogger who's side they were on? This question was asked in reference to me because the one blogger had carried on courteous and civil dialogue with me while the other refused to do so. The "sides" being referred to we can assume meant... Sign in to see full entry.

How would you fare in another culture?

If there is one thing that expands an individual's horizons it is spending time living in, or being exposed to another culture. Mind you, this is not a good idea for everyone, as it is pretty obvious that if some of the contributors here on Blogit ever set foot off of this continent, they would end...

A compelling reason to believe in God 101

"101" has become in modern day vernacular, a term describing an introduction to, or a beginner's guide to a comprehensive understanding of the basic principles in a field of study. Where for some the notion that our world, specifically our environment and all living things in it are the result of a... Sign in to see full entry.

I contend the "supernatural" does not exist

First it is prudent to define the word "supernatural" as seen below: Definition: The supernatural (Latin:super- "exceeding"+nature) comprises forces and phenomena that cannot be perceived by natural or empirical senses, and whose understanding may be said to lie with religious, magical, or otherwise...

How do you feel about liars?

If there is one thing that will take me aback, even at my age and with a perspective that only can be described as slightly jaded, it is when someone professing to be a proponent of moral and societal values lies through their teeth. I have very little patience for the disingenuous. Regardless of... Sign in to see full entry.

The nuns lead a field trip

A field trip for a class of 11 and 12 year olds consisted of a walk into the bush limited to where a person could walk with dignity while wearing a nun's habit. In other words; we never went off of the path and we never went too far into the bush cause the old girls couldn't move very well. The... Sign in to see full entry.

I'd like to buy a few Americans

They may need some training but they would make pretty good slaves I would think. I saw a classic "debate" on TV last evening. 5 people with a host/moderator sitting around a table debating why some of the Christian religions discriminate against homosexuals. One of the debaters was a black... Sign in to see full entry.
