So now that you know what all my family drama is, here are some ideas I came up with on how to deal with it: 1. There is a time and place for everything, but if something gets said, roll with it. It probably needed to be said anyways, and it’s better to just deal [...]

When I was in high school, we started going to these Worldview Weekend conferences. I don’t remember much specifically about them–I went to a ton of these conservative type conferences over the course of my life, and they’re all pretty much the same: liberals/atheists/homosexuals/Democrats/public schools/pick your poison are destroying the country, and we must fight [...]

(Major points to anyone who can catch the parody in the title.) While cleaning out my email inbox this morning,I found this lovely gem. Dear Friend of [Redacted] Ministries, I am requesting that you give this your prayerful consideration and forward it to everyone you know. I urge everyone to please support this movement. Please [...]

Joel is a preacher’s kid who has spent the last few years getting out of that. He’s still a Christian, but what strikes me about his posts are how similar they sound to what I would have written if I’d had a blog those years. Maybe that’s why I like his writing so much, and [...]

Reader Paul sent me the lyrics to this Neko Case song that fits a lot of us very well: Mood to Burn Bridges So many people live in my town And mind to my business but none of their own They’re all so happy now that I’ve done wrong I’m surprised they don’t come up [...]

Have you ever gotten involved in so many debates or surrounded by so many illogical sources that you just want to throw your hands in the air and give up?  I confess, I am kind of at that point. In an ideal world, right now, I would roll my eyes and simply say, “If they [...]

This is neat! Godless Blogger did the math on Noah’s Ark and came to some very interesting conclusions! The Bible math is, of course, off. Way off. Check it out: Now let’s talk ark dimensions. 450′ x 75′ and it had 3 stories (45′) which is 101,250 sq ft. Obviously with smaller animals it will [...]

After my Angry, Arrogant, Elitist rant, I had a nice long chat with Steve about everything. And I realized a few things. I kind of cringe a bit to write them down as this involves not just me, but some pretty nice people, but I am going to do it in hopes that it might [...]

Today, I’ve reached a point where I’ve just had enough. As a rule, I tend to ignore most religious things, as I know I am in a minority and most people believe in God. It doesn’t bother me that people are religious. But at the risk of sounding like a petty teenager, tonight, the party [...]
