The Fallout from Roe vs Wade

I’ve spent the past two days reading and watching about what the so-called Supreme Court did based on the desires of just 25% of the country. But when it comes down to it, it’s actually based on their own personal wants and beliefs. So this is my own rant about it. I’m pissed. I’m hurt.Continue reading “The Fallout from Roe vs Wade”

Christmas Trees: Christian or Pagan

This meme makes the rounds this time of the year by both conservative Christians (especially JW’s and Fundamentalist Mormons) and Pagans as “proof” of why Christians should not have a Christmas tree (and then they still INSIST that Christmas is totally Christian.) Both are wrong. Jeremiah 10 is not saying that Christians shouldn’t have aContinue reading “Christmas Trees: Christian or Pagan”

The Meaning of the Christmas Song “12 Days of Christmas”

It’s just barely the beginning of December, and already I’ve seen three posts that claim that the song “The 12 Days of Christmas” is a Christian code for Biblical teachings. This has been going around online for about 25 years.

While I have never been conservative, nor have I ever voted Republican, I once was a Christian in two very Evangelic churches. Looking back, I realized many of these belonged to the churchgoers I associated with, and maybeContinue reading “Trumplican Fantasy World”

I thought I had found them as a Catholic, but after 15 years I finally realized it wasn’t what I was looking for. I left the church and somehow found myself as a member ofContinue reading “Repost: TMI Tuesday: August 25, 2020: Sex & Religion”

What Are Atheists Afraid Of?

This was prompted by an article on Patheos :https://www.patheos.com/blogs/laughingindisbelief/2020/12/what-are-atheists-afraid-of/ I find it interesting that it’s usually Christians who have never studied or practiced anything other than Christianity (and have done very little studying of their own religion) who decide it’s up to them to determine what anyone is afraid of, especially Atheists. In their narrowContinue reading “What Are Atheists Afraid Of?”

Thanksgiving Blessing Written by an Atheist

There is so much to be thankful for each day. Today we take the time to pause and acknowledge this special season of harvest and its traditions of sharing with those less fortunate. We take time to notice the labor of others, from farm to table, that culminates in this feast. Today we pause toContinue reading “Thanksgiving Blessing Written by an Atheist”
