Allow me to indulge in a bit of dead-horse beating… The most recent nonsense from the Billy Graham Evangelistic Ministries is about how God simply must be given the credit when anything succeeds. Now, it’s not said quite so broad as that, being presented as how anyone getting better after a successful surgery better thank … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Giving credit where credit is due?

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Various thoughts on politics and the current stupidity in the US
While I’m not watching the Daily Show and Jon Stewart’s unfathomable fascination with Bill O’Reilly. I thought I’d do some opinining about politics. First with Bill O’Reilly. The man is willfully ignorant and is proud of it or he’s just a liar and is playing his ignorant audience (hmmm, he has claimed, about himself “This … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Various thoughts on politics and the current stupidity in the US
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a return from the past, and more TrueChristian nonsense about women, slavery, and predestination plus an announcement
I'm back from vacation. And what do I find? A great comment to do a blog post on. One of the TrueChristians from the past has decided to return to the blog. Ostensibly to see if I was behaving myself. You know, us women can’t be trusted. 🙂 Of course Woody was around in February … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a return from the past, and more TrueChristian nonsense about women, slavery, and predestination plus an announcement
What the Boss Likes – More hate mail readings, this time hate mail to the Military Religious Freedom Foundation
This is absolutely hilarious, perhaps even funnier and more VILE and TrueChristian than the hate mail readings for the FFRF: http://www.militaryreligiousfreedom.org/2013/07/mrff-hate-mail-readings-chapter-1-of-more-to-come/ It is very much NOT SAFE FOR WORK or anyone who doesn't have cast iron ears. Parents, you are warned! Always good to have TrueChristians wishing "extremely painful rectal cancer" on others. 🙂 Gee, … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – More hate mail readings, this time hate mail to the Military Religious Freedom Foundation
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Part 2, The lie of “think of the children” Pennsylvania style
Part 1 here. A rather pathetic example of one of those Christians who want to pretend their personal beliefs should be made law is a recent op-ed “Defend marriage, for the kids' sake” (yep, he went there) It was written by Brian McGinley of the Pennsylvania Family Institute, another one of those organizations that … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Part 2, The lie of “think of the children” Pennsylvania style
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Bravo for Pennsylvania AG Kane, Part 1
“We are surprised that the attorney general, contrary to her constitutional duty under the Commonwealth Attorneys Act, has decided not to defend a Pennsylvania statute lawfully enacted by the General Assembly, merely because of her personal beliefs.” – James Schultz, Pennsylvania general counsel It’s so cute when the irony escapes people like Mr. Schultz, Gov. … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Bravo for Pennsylvania AG Kane, Part 1
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – the Kalam Cosmological Argument, part 2
As I mentioned on the first part of this post, the one thing that the KCA *must* have is an unquestionable beginning to the universe. At the moment, we don’t know if that is the case or not. We have new hypotheses, cyclic universes, brane theory, etc. These may be accurate, partially accurate or really … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – the Kalam Cosmological Argument, part 2
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Free speech here in PA restricted because God will be offended. Yep, Metcalfe is at it again.
Well, there are more amazing attempt to make Pennsylvania a theocracy. Thanks to a friend of mine bringing this to my attention, we now can report on Christians wanting to block free speech because their god will feel bad. Not much of a god if us puny humans can bother a supposedly omniscient, omnipotent and … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Free speech here in PA restricted because God will be offended. Yep, Metcalfe is at it again.
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Cue wailing, gnashing of teeth
If it hasn’t started already, we can expect much wailing and gnashing of teeth. Predictions of “Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together, mass hysteria”. All because the prayers of so many TrueChristians have not been heeded by a imaginary deity and they did not get their way. In case you haven’t heard, the Supreme … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Cue wailing, gnashing of teeth
Not Polite Dinner Conversation – On the front of forcing personal religion onto others, we have a couple of stories in the news
A political figure has cracked down on alcohol consumption and the media. A political figure has decided that he and he alone will determine if a woman can have an abortion paid for by Medicaid, a man who has no medical education at all and who will be deciding based on his personal opinion. More … Continue reading Not Polite Dinner Conversation – On the front of forcing personal religion onto others, we have a couple of stories in the news
