Guest Blogger Response to Demonizing Abortion
In a recent post, I was accused of being mean and insulting. The offended individual asked for a chance to clarify his Pro-Planned Parenthood position. Ever eager to allow opposing viewpoints to be heard, I present Chris Gursche’s guest blog post below. ——————— Dear John, [that sounds so terminal. Is it? Things are rarely what […]
Are You Famously Wearisome?
Shakespeare said, “All the world’s a stage…” My high school English teacher didn’t tell me that The Bard… …was talking about Periscope. Put this app on your phone and it’s always showtime! You can broadcast every moment of your life! Every dull, uninspired, insipid moment of your life! Periscope is the high-tech equivalent to yelling… […]
Demonizing Abortion
Here’s something I saw on a friend’s Facebook wall yesterday. You can read the article here if you want to. Or, if you’ve got a functioning brain, you can just read the headline… …and consider the source. I’ve hidden my friend’s identity because I’m so blasted tolerant, kind and loving… …that I feel a burden to […]
Saturday School #3
Antony Flew was arguably the most prolific atheist writer of our time. He was a champion of atheistic thought. His stream of atheistic philosophy spans almost half a century. He used to be cited frequently in the works of fellow atheist authors. But no more. Antony fell from grace. Prior to his death, he issued […]
Be A Genius Without Knowing Stuff
You agnostics. That’s quite a racket you’ve got going. Selling abject thoughtlessness as intellectual superiority. Your most profound and compelling truth statement is, I don’t know. Which isn’t exactly true. You do know at least one thing… …I am wrong. I believe God exists. And nobody can know for sure. So you point it out to me. You can’t be certain […]
Flaws of Fundamentalism
** Wrote this last year. Reposted it because I remembered how awesome it was… ** Dogma. It’s not what a puppy calls its mother. It’s religious doctrine that’s held without proof. For example: …the belief that there is no God. Relativism. It’s not government by your relatives. It’s dogma. The belief that morality changes relative […]
What Manner of Evil?
Week 4 Recapping last week. If you take organization to mean ‘a pattern’, then there are lots of examples in nature. If you take organization to mean ‘a house rising from a pile of bricks’, then we’ve not seen it yet. I find the need to be VERY specific about terms quite tedious. You non-theists […]
Time To Start Loving Klansmen*
Need some advice from my fellow Christians: I’ve got friends in the KKK. …Khristian Klux Klan They love people… …white people. They hate people of different ethnicity. …But we can’t choose who we hate. What’s most important is… …the KKK people love Jesus. They just want to live life in peace, like you and me. Every now and then they’ll hold […]
How Did You Get So Smart?
Week three! Let me recap what I’ve learned about atheistic faith so far: There is no empirical proof that life arises from non-life. Atheists believe life arose from non-life anyway. The biochemical process of life coming from non-life requires a lot of intelligence to understand. The biochemical process of life coming from non-life required no […]
How to Know If You're Arrogant
Put your finger on your wrist. Can you feel your pulse? If yes… …you’re arrogant. If no… …stop reading and have a friend drive you to the hospital. Arrogant used to mean: feelings of undeserved importance because of overbearing pride… Now it basically means: expressing opinions that you believe are correct… Any staunchly held opinion is ‘arrogant’ in American […]
