I've found a supposedly new and typically bad theodicy. This is "participation theodicy" by John Buck. I've snagged a copy of it here. the abstract: " Why does God allow gratuitous suffering to occur? In this paper, the author puts forward a variation on the greater good theodicy, which rather than suggesting that every evil … Continue reading No So Polite Conversation – a “new” failed theodicy

Is God an Abuser?
a good post about how gods, especially the Christian god, has all of the marks of any abusive partner or parent. " The moral character of the Christian God is the question which eventually led me away from Christianity. After a decade of non-belief, I still can’t help but look back to the time when … Continue reading Is God an Abuser?
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – it’s great fun when a Catholic lies
Well, let’s see what false things a Christian has come up with now. There is a rather nasty Catholic, Trent, who is on Youtube, who has no problem lying and failing in this video "5 Atheist Double Standards". Again, this is pretty much a typing exercise for me, to waste some time at work since … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – it’s great fun when a Catholic lies
What the Boss Likes – a gods war, via football

What the Boss Likes – woo-hoo, got a new job!
Finally, I got a new job. The last in the green energy sector was a casualty of companies buying each other. This new one is for architects, and I get to write procedure manuals and do things with drawings. Hopefully, this will be the last job until I retire. About time, I was really getting … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – woo-hoo, got a new job!
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – No rights for the Godless
Unsurprisingly, we get to see yet one more Christian theocrat and her lies. Caroline has a problem. She claims "But many others believe every human being, born and unborn, has an intrinsic right to life that supersedes any declared right to abortion." Her god doesn't share that belief at all. This god kills children and … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – No rights for the Godless

What the Boss Likes – feeling like I’m in a sketch comedy skit and cat picture
Recently, I've been demonstrating how a couple of conservative Christians fail. Those familiar with my blog and those of others will recognize the screen handles of "colorstorm" and "silenceofmind". Over on SOM's blog, I'm addressing their nonsense and the poor fellows can't keep from "liking" my comments. Alas, I didn't grab poor CS's like since … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – feeling like I’m in a sketch comedy skit and cat picture
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – please welcome Alex, a Christian who has asked to debate me
A Christian has asked to debate me, Alexander Phaethon, of the blog Peace of Mind. He comes to us from commenting on my last blog post, about a christian who insists that everyone agrees with her. You can see what kind of a Christian he is on his comment here. He also commented that he … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – please welcome Alex, a Christian who has asked to debate me
