Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – A Christian claims everyone agrees with her.

Elizabeth Prata, of "The End Time - Exalting the name of Jesus through Christian essays" blog, has written an essay claiming everyone really does agree with her about her god existing.

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – and yet again a Christian fails in their claims of what makes someone leave their religion

A fellow in my home state, Mark Farnham, from a relatively close by bible college, has decided to make a list of why people have left his religion.  And of course it’s the same baseless claims, and ignorance.  He has this nonsense on a rather vehement evangelical conservative Christian website called “Sharper Iron”, and claims … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – and yet again a Christian fails in their claims of what makes someone leave their religion

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – attempts to declare one religion “better” doesn’t work out so well

I do love a completely clueless post by John Clayton, over at Does God Exist.  He tries very hard to declare that Christianity is ever so much better than Islam.To give some background, John tries to claim that he was once an atheist who became a Christian because “science”.  Alas, not one thing about science says … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – attempts to declare one religion “better” doesn’t work out so well

What the Boss Likes – Bloganuary – Catching up

Catching up on some inspirations for Bloganuary. What was your favorite photo you’ve taken?I don’t like taking photos.  I find it ends up making me miss something, and I hate being in photos.  I suppose if I had to choose one, I do like a black and white photo, from *film*, that I took of … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – Bloganuary – Catching up
