Way back in September 2014, I offered a challenge to a professional Christian and self-proclaimed prophet, Bill Keller. This was about the challenge he offered to a Muslim leader regarding that old testament contest in 1 Kings 18. Now during that interaction, I was promised that I would be prayed for. He of course ran away … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a bit of nostalgia and still no effects from prayers by professionals

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – We ate that apple or did we?
Recently, I found a post on another blog about what Christians could learn from atheists. This was on a blog for self-described millennial Christians. It was an article written by John Garay, who has his own blog. It was an interesting post, with some honest compliments but most the usual claims of how “rebellious” atheists … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – We ate that apple or did we?
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – reblogging a Christian bit of nonsense: The meaning of meaninglessness
This post came to my attention when Pastor Mike liked this post of mine. It doesn't make a whole lot of sense that a Christian would like it, but I often encounter Christians who seem a little confused in what they profess to believe and what they actually believe. Nothing like watching a TrueChristian(tm) do his … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – reblogging a Christian bit of nonsense: The meaning of meaninglessness
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Exodus redux
Lest anyone think that I have only issues with Christianity, here is the link to the first part of my Exodus series. I look at the strange story of the exodus in the bible. Passover is based on the idea of putting blood on doorways to avoid being killed by the angel of a supposedly … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Exodus redux
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – FFRF’s Blog “Easter fools, April Fools and Jesus’ pundits”
FFRF has done a good blog on the nonsense of Easter. I'm looking forward to the live broadcast of Jesus Christ Superstar on NBC tomorrow night. I love the music and it is a good story. It also is a great demonstration that the easter stories in the bible contradict each other quite a bit. … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – FFRF’s Blog “Easter fools, April Fools and Jesus’ pundits”
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a lovely quote about followers of gods
"Of course, if one had played more RPGs, one would have realized that shacking up with people whose goal is "fulfill the ancient prophecies so that my dead god might rule once more over the earth, and cull those not among our cult" is rarely a good idea." - from some well spoken person on … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a lovely quote about followers of gods
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – this year Easter is on April Fool’s Day
Hello, I've changed my wordpress theme for my blog since it was getting a little hard to read, even for me, with the grey on black. If it's a little too big for you, you can change your zoom on your web browser. I've done various posts about Easter over the years I've been blogging. … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – this year Easter is on April Fool’s Day
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – probability, evolution and theists
In a prior post, I went over how many Christians attack evolutionary theory without either knowing what it actually is, or willfully ignoring what it actually is. I pointed out that many Christians, including the pastor who wrote these things, try to make false claims about its supposed randomness, which he, and they, think is … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – probability, evolution and theists
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – and back around again to creationism and which version of Christianity is the “right” one
A friendly warning to those who followed my blog for food and drink posts. The below is my unvarnished opinions about religion. You may wish to leave now. Well, we have yet more creationist nonsense from Pastor Dave, who has spent a few days discussing how one should properly do baptism and communion; the two things that are … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – and back around again to creationism and which version of Christianity is the “right” one
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – claims, evidence and research when debating a literalist Christian
Here on WordPress, you can search for blog posts on a certain subject by using keywords. As a blogger, you can set keywords yourself (you can see them at the bottom of this post) and I also think that the system also finds them to be able to bring back search results. I have a … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – claims, evidence and research when debating a literalist Christian
