No atheist ever started a holy war
Every time someone farts in the general direction of someone else in the middle east, the end times proponents come out of the woodwork. Their voices heard every time there is an Arab-Israeli War and there have been quite a few including; 1948–49, 1956, 1967, 1973–74, and 1982 as well as countless... Sign in to see full entry.

Lob rockets to start a war with Israel - rinse and repeat
I hate to speak the blunt truth when it straddles the lines of insensitivity but how are we supposed to even care about yet another muslim militia picking a fight with Israel and getting their asses kicked? Our western sensibilities have been bludgeoned by these ongoing replays of this same old... Sign in to see full entry.

The Church of Gomedome 2009
Many of us have made New Year's resolutions that include the usual stuff, quit drinking, quit smoking, quit gambling, quit over eating and quit farting in elevators. It always seems that we are attempting to overcome our weaknesses, quit doing this or quit doing that. This year, I said to heck with... Sign in to see full entry.

Happy New Year to everyone on Blogit

I often wonder why they tell me?
We all make choices in life for better or worse. Life is in reality nothing more than a series of choices, from the mundane day to day selections and discriminations we routinely make, to the life changing decisions that are occasionally forced upon us. Two things that are constantly placed within... Sign in to see full entry.

The importance of faith, I get it - but do you?
Most health care professionals agree that religious convictions affect physical and emotional health.

More on (or is that moron?) the best names I've been called
There is nothing remarkable about figuratively lobotomized adherents to an organized religion spewing catch phrases upon demand, this is the plight of those who readily accept a set of beliefs without question. Inevitably they all walk and talk the same. Where it becomes entertaining is when an... Sign in to see full entry.

Here's to swimmin with bow legged wimmin
If you are wondering where you heard such a gem of wit and clever use of the English language that is this post's title, it was a toast provided by the irascable Quint in the 70's movie Jaws. It doesn't actually mean anything though it initially strikes one as implying something either sexual or... Sign in to see full entry.

The part I will never understand
So called holy scriptures always seem to reflect the intellectual, moral, and spiritual level of development of those who create them. Without exception; all religions basing their beliefs on holy scriptures inherited from our ancient ancestors, impede the advancement of knowledge within the... Sign in to see full entry.

Realizing that you are a member of a cult . . . .
It can be the rudest awakening of all to realize that not only are you a member of a large cult but that you have been contributing to the unbridled growth of that cult. In my case it was every day for many years. I had been taken in completely and in the insidious manner that cults ply their trade,... Sign in to see full entry.
