Comedy Sojourn – John Crist! And Abused People Who Abuse People
In This Episode: I’m in the Green Room with John Crist. And the Peaches and I discuss victims.
An Open Letter To Ministers from A Non-Victim
I am a family violence survivor. It seems weird to me to say that, because my experiences don’t meet the stereotypical and horrific stories of constant physical or sexual abuse that come to mind when I hear the words “family violence’”. I am hesitant to speak, lest someone tell me “that’s not really abuse”. But […]
God, I Wish I Didn’t Believe In God
“Free will is nothing but a myth!” If only this were true! Like I said before… …it would be sweeeeeeeeet! In all sincerity, I envy the atheists. The blissful embrace of irrationality masked by self-proclaimed intellectualism. I would love to live in that bubble. Sadly, I cannot. I am burdened by logic and reason. My […]
An Inconvenient Irritation
When you have a rash and you put ointment on it. It clears up. And then it comes back suddenly! Just like Al Gore’s movies. You can read about his latest flick here.

Please, God, Give Me Illness
Man, I wish I had a condition. Conditions are sweet! If I was bi-polar, I could live like a king! I could be ungrateful, unkind, irresponsible, indecent, lazy and selfish… …and everyone would chalk it up to my illness! “John stole a car and trashed the Mayor’s yard!” “Try to understand, he’s not well.” I […]
Comedy Sojourn – Alaska, Angry Chickens, Hidden Rocks and Moose
Way up North in Alaska. Driving around in cars. Eating Boston Baked Beans and talking about Moose.
When You Know You’re Wrong
Your know you’re wrong. Right? You won’t admit it. You’re telling me you’re doing fine. You’re telling me to live and let live. People are okay without ‘religion’. People aren’t ‘bad’. But Donald Trump is awful. And climate change deniers should be locked up. And racists should be destroyed. And the patriarchy must be dismantled. […]
Let Me Own My Privilege
I’m going to go ahead and admit my privilege. I’ve have a lot of stuff I don’t deserve. It all comes from my faith. Privilege is one of the unique things about Christianity. I get to take credit for the stuff that Jesus did. No other religion offers this sweet deal. It works like this: […]
