What the Boss Likes – my new sticker for my vehicle

What the Boss likes: or at least what the Boss finds facinating, nuke craters

Having grown up with the threat of nuclear war, I've always been fascinated by nuclear bombs.   I almost became a nuclear weapons technician in my abortive attempt to be in the USAF.  And in my college days, I took a couple of aerial/satellite imaging courses so I love the new version of Google Earth.  … Continue reading What the Boss likes: or at least what the Boss finds facinating, nuke craters

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Christian prayers don’t work again, news at at 11

This from the Pew Foundation: "The virus also has impacted Americans’ religious behaviors. More than half of all U.S. adults (55%) say they have prayed for an end to the spread of coronavirus. Large majorities of Americans who pray daily (86%) and of U.S. Christians (73%) have taken to prayer during the outbreak – but … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Christian prayers don’t work again, news at at 11

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – My chat with Ray Comfort transcripted

After some personal uncomfortableness on my part, listening to my own voice, I have transcripted my chat with Ray Comfort that was recorded by Ray and a copy given to me for my use.   Here is the transcript, since I personally really hate to listen to talking heads.  I read much faster than that, … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – My chat with Ray Comfort transcripted

What the Boss Likes – some improvements to what the PA Department of Health says about masks

The PA Department of Health has some info on masks. They have a basic bit of instruction on masks and then they refer people to the NYT instructions. Both, from my opinion as someone who has worn PPE and who sews, are lacking. Let me tell you what I think should be done. This is … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – some improvements to what the PA Department of Health says about masks

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – just in case you weren’t completely sure that conservative Christians were inhumane

Shilled by Ken Ham of the failed Ark museum and the Creation museum, we have this prize.  If you don't want to click, here's a screen capture of their vileness.  It wouldn't surprise me if they take this down to try to hide what they really think. "Put together a medical mission team in your … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – just in case you weren’t completely sure that conservative Christians were inhumane

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – hearing voices

Occasionally, I come upon a post by a theist and then comment on it.  A couple of exchanges in, suddenly there are “rules” that are enforced when the Christian can’t find an answer or finds the line of debate less than flattering to his points.  Oh well, that doesn’t stop reality from existing. The post … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – hearing voices

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – “Why can’t animals talk?”

Rabbi Gellman, who used to be part of the God Squad with a catholic priest, still has a syndicated column. I occasionally address them there. This time it’s a column that in my paper is titled “why don’t animals talk”. Now many cultures have myths on why this is. They are just-so stories like Kipling … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – “Why can’t animals talk?”

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a Christian’s excuse for supporting an anti-christ aka Trump

Haden, over at Helpmebelieve.com, has done a great job at showing just what some Christians will do to gain power. Haden, unsurprisingly, is a Trumpie.  Nothing new is here.  Pretty much every Trumpie will make the same excuses. As some of you might know, the editor of Christianity Today, a magazine started by the Billy … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a Christian’s excuse for supporting an anti-christ aka Trump
