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"

Tuesday, December 5, 2006Are you aware enough to have doubts?A little while back I had one fervent believer begin leaving comments on my postings that indicated that I was completely full of manure (not exactly the word he used). This may actually be true but this possibility aside, the entire premise of this person saying this to me was because he "knew"....

It matters not what side of the globe you live on, it matters not what religion is the subject of...

Of how establishing common parameters in a universal belief system will magically draw mankind together in a never before seen cooperative of love and peace......it's a nice idea but.....this isn't magic pixie land. This...

Yep, Pope Benedict decided to set us straight with his wacky version of how the world should be. Specifically he addressed the issue of homosexuality and some imaginary connection that...

As if because they simply adhere to a religion that is widely distributed, that there are two sets of rules. "Don't assume...

Those that are insistent on judging others entirely by their own religious beliefs and those who justify wrong actions simply because those actions are technically not illegal. We've seen the former too often here on Blogit. Some...

It wouldn't occur to me to include the unwilling in my beliefs, nor do I feel anyone has the right to impose their belief system on another. So why is it that so...

The question being: What happens to those who never heard of Jesus...

You know the ones, the usual suspects that cloister on the outskirts of just about every city in North America. There was your Mcdonalds, your Burger King, your Wendy's, your Harvey's,...

Grade 7 to be precise, we were all little brushcut numbnuts just beginning to comprehend the birds and the bees. "Beginning" is the operative word, information on the subject of human...
