The Christianity You Don’t Need
One of the main reasons that people are running away from your church is because you are saying things like this: “If you are lucky enough to raise a teenager that never drank or smoked or got arrested or snuck out or cheated on a test; if you were lucky enough to never feel like […]
Anti-Religion Is Religion
“John, you moron! Everybody doesn’t believe in your god! We all have our own faith!” Say it again, louder for the relativists in the back! “Everyone believes different things! Faith is personal. It is completely separate from logic, reason, and science! Any religion is true if it works for me!” I hear you! These kinds […]
The Truth Is A Fact
A few blatant relativists commented on my previous post explaining that ‘truth’ is different from ‘facts.’ They are trying to convince me that it’s possible to have personal ‘truth’ that is separate from universal ‘fact.’ The gist of their argument can be summarized by this statement: “Facts rule the day. Math, gravity, weather. Things no […]
A Dumb Reason to Cancel A Drag Show
Never let it be said that irrational devotion to my home State has hindered my ability to recognize idiocy in Indiana. I love you Hoosiers but I can’t let this slide without commentary. Jasper, Indiana, in Dubois (pronounced ‘do boys’) County has canceled a family friendly drag show after the event received some negative attention […]
You Don’t Get Your Own Truth
There’s a meme I keep seeing that pictures two men looking at a symbol on the ground that could be either a ‘6’ or a ‘9.’ The man at the top says it’s a ‘9’ while while the man at the bottom says it’s a ‘9.’ Both men are correct from their perspective. The picture […]
Pride in Pride is Insane
Every year we spend the entire month of June testing God’s patience with something called, “Pride Month.” It is a celebration of something that the Bible repeatedly tells us we shouldn’t do— be proud! During the month of June I traditionally ask the most energetic celebrants, “What are you proud of, exactly?” Instead of answering […]
Christian Extremist Death Cult
I see you cult members! You who claim to follow Jesus but worry about biblical laws being forced on society. You who brainwash people with your false religion. I see you! You cultists are quick to remind me that we live in a pluralistic society and that I shouldn’t expect secular society to follow the […]
Everyone Is Religious
A couple of gentle reminders on how to engage on social media without revealing that you don’t think deeply. If you want to avoid being perceived as a fool, I recommend any or all of the following: Be open about your religious convictions. Everybody is religious. You haven’t transcended the rest of us mortals into […]
Stay The Course
Stay the course. The heathen will rage. They will call what is evil, “good.” They have no understanding, no light, not truth. Do not walk in their company or heed their unholy council. They lack wisdom yet possess infinite words. The godless chatter is a ceaseless noise. It is full of passion and empty of […]
Mentally Ill People Can Still Sin
Before I stop talking about guns until the next mass shooting, I want to encourage everyone to use the proper terminology when referring to a person who intentionally kills children. The correct word is ‘sinner’ and NOT ‘victim of mental illness.’ The ‘victims’ in a school shooting are the people who get shot and the […]
