FFRF has done a good blog on the nonsense of Easter. I'm looking forward to the live broadcast of Jesus Christ Superstar on NBC tomorrow night. I love the music and it is a good story. It also is a great demonstration that the easter stories in the bible contradict each other quite a bit. … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – FFRF’s Blog “Easter fools, April Fools and Jesus’ pundits”

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – So, did anyone see that film crew for the talent show on the National Mall?
Per a story covered in various media outlets, the March for Our Lives was prevented from being on the National Mall by a "small student grout filming a talent show". As far as I know, this group was never identified. The march was held anyway, and indeed, considering how sloppy the Mall would be after … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – So, did anyone see that film crew for the talent show on the National Mall?
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a lovely quote about followers of gods
"Of course, if one had played more RPGs, one would have realized that shacking up with people whose goal is "fulfill the ancient prophecies so that my dead god might rule once more over the earth, and cull those not among our cult" is rarely a good idea." - from some well spoken person on … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a lovely quote about followers of gods
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – this year Easter is on April Fool’s Day
Hello, I've changed my wordpress theme for my blog since it was getting a little hard to read, even for me, with the grey on black. If it's a little too big for you, you can change your zoom on your web browser. I've done various posts about Easter over the years I've been blogging. … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – this year Easter is on April Fool’s Day
From the Bar: a couple of new things to drink, vindaloo, and a movie
This weekend we made a chicken vindaloo. This was from the Saveur magazine recipe and it just wasn’t quite what I had grown used to in most indian restaurants. What the recipe produced was a chicken and potato curry stew but not much of the vinegar tang that I like in vindaloo. So I ended … Continue reading From the Bar: a couple of new things to drink, vindaloo, and a movie
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – probability, evolution and theists
In a prior post, I went over how many Christians attack evolutionary theory without either knowing what it actually is, or willfully ignoring what it actually is. I pointed out that many Christians, including the pastor who wrote these things, try to make false claims about its supposed randomness, which he, and they, think is … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – probability, evolution and theists
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – what makes Christianity Christianity?
On my last blog post, we briefly discussed what are major and minor differences between the sects of Christianity. You see, often when I point out that Christians don’t agree on what their religion means, or what their god want as a reason to not believe any of their versions, some Christians tell me that … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – what makes Christianity Christianity?
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – and back around again to creationism and which version of Christianity is the “right” one
A friendly warning to those who followed my blog for food and drink posts. The below is my unvarnished opinions about religion. You may wish to leave now. Well, we have yet more creationist nonsense from Pastor Dave, who has spent a few days discussing how one should properly do baptism and communion; the two things that are … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – and back around again to creationism and which version of Christianity is the “right” one
What the Boss Likes and from the Bar – alcohol in crafts and some beers
I’ve been looking for a new craft to try. I’m not much of an artistic type; generating artsy things isn’t my best ability, though I can copy pretty well. I first came upon pour painting when you make paintings from various techniques of pouring, tilting and smearing paint. That’s pretty neat but It takes some … Continue reading What the Boss Likes and from the Bar – alcohol in crafts and some beers
From the Kitchen – finally that bread that I’ve been trying for a decade + to make and a dip
Well, I finally did it! (happy porcupine dance) I made a loaf of bread that has all of the holes in it I wanted. It only took more than a decade since I’ve first started trying baking bread. I started baking bread since I do love that smell through the house. I started baking the … Continue reading From the Kitchen – finally that bread that I’ve been trying for a decade + to make and a dip
