Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – where we find more lies told by TrueChristians, in order to defame people….. Pity that the bible insists that lying is a sin

Not surprisingly, TrueChristians(tm)  are trying to destroy Planned Parenthood, an organization that helps many more women than any set of prayers. They need to lie to do so.  Not surprising at all.  And what god hates liars?  Oh yes, the Christian one.... To find the facts, and not Christian lies, you can go here:  http://www.factcheck.org/2015/07/unspinning-the-planned-parenthood-video/ … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – where we find more lies told by TrueChristians, in order to defame people…..

From the Bar – a handful of new spirits and wines to try plus a new snack

We went on a shopping trip to replenish the bar. These were mostly on sale at the PA liquor stores when we were there last week. Bacardi Black (Carta Negra) Rum – This is a strange one. To our palate, it is wood and smoke, coal smoke. There is the standard sweet molasses rum taste, … Continue reading From the Bar – a handful of new spirits and wines to try plus a new snack →

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – now just where does it say “you shalt not do your job” in the bible

So... we have an entire bunch of clerks in Tennessee that have resigned their jobs rather than even have a chance of granting a marriage license to someone they don't like, that being folks who want to marry whom they want, and not whom the clerks want them to marry. It's great that other people … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – now just where does it say “you shalt not do your job” in the bible →

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – marriage and a lovely example of TrueChristian hysteria

Whoo-hoo, marriage for all!   I hope that everyone who chooses to get married is as happy as my husband and I. Rather than reviewing the SCOTUS decisions since others have done a better job than me, I found a typical opinion piece by one of the horrified TrueChristians, or as he puts it “orthodox Christians” … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – marriage and a lovely example of TrueChristian hysteria →

A Gay Dad Sounds Off on the Terror Threatening to Be Unleashed on California Families

A Gay Dad Sounds Off on the Terror Threatening to Be Unleashed on California Families.   Unsurprisingly, there are still more attempts to legitimize the actions of conservative theists.   The Westboro Baptists aren't the only ones that bear watching and confronting by pointing out their actions and showing them for what they are.

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Evidence and personal experience

Recently, I’ve been crossing swords with some Christians. A Calvinist, an evangelical American Christian fundamentalist, a Christian whose God doesn’t really punish people for sins by sending them to hell, a Quaker who doesn’t like to call himself a Quaker, quite a motley lot. They are all very different in what they claim is the … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Evidence and personal experience →

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – my thoughts on “A History Of God”

Over on Hessian With Teeth’s blog, the authors have watched a documentary and asked for comments about it. The doc is “A History of God” based on the book by Karen Armstrong of the same name. Armstrong is a theist who wants to have her god but who doesn’t want the baggage it comes with. … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – my thoughts on “A History Of God” →

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Schadenfreude, tasty, tasty schadenfreude

Considering the name I’ve taken for this blog, it’s no surprise that I enjoy watching people suffer by their reaping the results of their willfully ignorant choices and claims. I like to watch people who insist that they are so pious that no one can question their actions fail in their claims of divine perfection … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Schadenfreude, tasty, tasty schadenfreude →

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – review of “Faith vs. Fact”; no pussyfooting allowed

I just finished Jerry Coyne’s new book “Faith vs. Fact”.   It was a great deal of fun to read, even though I know, and have used, most of the arguments in it. Dr. Coyne does an excellent job of stating a premise, carefully defining terms, and then proceeding to support it with evidence, likely a … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – review of “Faith vs. Fact”; no pussyfooting allowed →
