Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – some agnostics and their curious arguments

As I've indicated on other posts, I occasionally search on the terms "atheist" and "atheism" on Wordpress's blogs.   Here I find a lot of posts by atheists, and also a lot by theists and agnostics too. Agnostics always strike me as very defensive.  They seem to think that having no position is the only position.  they also have a … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – some agnostics and their curious arguments

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – the usual idiocy in the US thanks to conservative Christians

Here in the US, we certainly do have a pile of idiots who voted for a moron and now we all get to suffer for it.

From the kitchen and the bar: duck and wine

Sorry for the long hiatus. I am dealing with a job I don’t like, and working on my art, which I do like. I’m now an officially paid artist!

As I am wont to do, I was roaming about wordpress looking for silly claims about atheists by theists.  While chatting with his son about another blog post, I found this list of questions by a pastor that has his church not too far from where I grew up.    So I thought I'd give … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – questions posed to an atheist

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – wannabee nazis and confederates are soooooo stupid

Let see one of the more stupid things: shoes. Now, we have morons burning the Nike apparel because Nike paid Kaepernick to represent them.   I am all for the kneeling in protest of bigotry, ignorance and pure stupidity when it comes to so many people in law enforcement being idiots when it comes to … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – wannabee nazis and confederates are soooooo stupid
