Bible quotes for knuckleheads

If there is one thing in this world that has empowered those that are ill equipped to handle any form of empowerment it is the bible. The supposed word of God. A document translated, edited and manipulated too many times to count over the history of its existence. Still, as redundant as this... Sign in to see full entry.

It's tough living a life of being lost

It is as equally tough to maintain any sense of hope when you know that you are going straight to hell when you die. Of course I am kidding but I doubt very much that any of the persons that have told me over my life that I am lost, confused and going straight to hell when I die were kidding. What a...

The lies religious folks tell

There is a pattern that I have found to be true in life that is playing itself out in the same manner here on Blogit. Those who do not believe in God seem to be, to a person, the most trustworthy of individuals. That is they never seem to be caught in some of the obvious lies that we have seen time...

Why I take a stand against gay bashing

I owned a bar about 15 years ago, inheriting a clientele that was comprised of a large number of gay patrons.

Inevitably, the position as held by the majority of Christian religions towards homosexuality will change, it will evolve as all other widely held irreconcilable beliefs have over time. Currently the inconsistency of an infallible God is pitted against the infallibility of his supposed word as found... Sign in to see full entry.


The bible thumpers are picking on the fags again

It seems that every time the God Fan Club factory produces another crop of fervent followers of Jesus, we are treated to yet another round of gay bashing. Though the guilty parties will claim that they are not doing any such thing but instead are simply following their religious teachings. One... Sign in to see full entry.

Has your faith made you a simpleton?

The definition of a Simpleton: A person lacking intelligence or common sense. Further expanded to include those persons who are incapable of comprehending anything but the simplest of concepts. We have all seen it many times right here on Blogit where an individual will go to great lengths to... Sign in to see full entry.


Why so many con games in religion?

When you sit back and take a long hard look at the promotion of religious beliefs, they sure do use a lot of smoke and mirrors to get people to believe and maintain their belief. Without breaking a cerebral sweat, I can think of a number of routinely used cons that permeate religious promotion but... Sign in to see full entry.

Speaking in tongues - another con game

A few years back I remember being engaged in a conversation with an individual concerning the practice of speaking in tongues or the phenomena properly described as "glossolalia". It seems he had been at some hallelujah meeting somewhere and every one was falling down on the floor doing the... Sign in to see full entry.

Escaping the cult - a true story

Back when I was a mere pup of 20 years old, I was certain that I knew everything, all you had to do was ask me and I would make that point abundantly clear. I was also and as most young people are, fertile ground for a new and revolutionary concept, in this case I was recruited by a full blown cult.... Sign in to see full entry.
