For those of you who follow the news, the federal government has sufficiently pressured the US Patent Office to revoke the trademark for the NFL team, the Washington Redskins. First and foremost I find it suspicious that these kinds of frivolous movements only take root in years when a certain … [Read more...]
Men, it’s your fault mothers abort…mostly
June 16, 2014 by 3 Comments
Mothers abort their children for many reasons. In my opinion, none are good enough except to save her life. Admittedly, the way I characterize the reasons given for abortion, it sounds harsh, cold-hearted, and even callous: 'justifications' for elective abortion are selfish. But the true reason … [Read more...]
We can’t just move on, can we?
June 9, 2014 by Leave a Comment
What is it about moving on that it's nearly universal to us all? Whether it's leaving that job you hate, splitting from a bad relationship, or even abandoning a religious or a-religious set of convictions, people will so often stay put for too long. Some situations are obviously controlled by other … [Read more...]
Is the Bible really that difficult to understand?
June 5, 2014 by 23 Comments
That's the question I offer to skeptics who blame God for the number of professing Christian denominations. "God", they say, "is a terrible communicator if no one can agree on what it says. After all, God should have made it unconfusable". To this complaint I always request a citation for a … [Read more...]
Little green men still more likely than God?

What is it with atheist scientists and aliens? (Raw Story) -- Astrophysicist and Cosmos host Neil DeGrasse Tyson told MSNBC host Chris Hayes that while it’s audacious enough for human beings to say they’re capable of defining intelligence, he would still like to know if there’s other intelligent … [Read more...]
Taxpayer funded sex-changes
June 3, 2014 by 2 Comments
The Department of Health and Human Services has announced that denials of sex change operations will not be automatic. Now they'll be taken on a case by case basis. There's no way the social and medical acceptance of how to treat transgenderism is based on anything other than public pressure from … [Read more...]
Climate change alarmists slowly being exposed as the Harold Campings of science
June 2, 2014 by 1 Comment
To my recollection, none of the doomsday claims of climate activists have come to pass. Whether it comes from former vice president and multi-multi-multi millionaire (fortune made from climate activism) Al Gore, or top-in-their-field climate scientists who make predictions of dire circumstances due … [Read more...]
Abortion activist ashamed she’s never aborted
May 29, 2014 by 4 Comments
Actress Sarah Silverman admitted to Bill Maher that she's never had an abortion. As it goes, this isn't that big of a deal. However, she framed it in such a way that makes it seem as though she wishes she had. (Mediaite) -- Comedian Sarah Silverman has made women’s reproductive rights one of the … [Read more...]
Who was Jesus?
May 28, 2014 by 31 Comments
Taking into consideration how substantial Christianity's impact on the world has been, I think everyone needs to be able to answer this question. If Christianity is true, then answering this question accurately is even more consequential. Skeptics: do you at least concede that knowing exactly who … [Read more...]

Liberal memes debunked: welfare irony
May 26, 2014 by 5 Comments
Could this be true? What if it is? I found this on the Facebook page "Being Liberal" and they do a great job of playing fast and loose with actual facts. The first implication is that white republicans think using food stamps (SNAP) is wrong. Well, no they don't. They -- I -- don't like … [Read more...]
“No Loser” events don’t help kids
May 23, 2014 by 7 Comments
Many schools and institutions have, over the past few decades, drifted toward an environment where children don't ever feel the agony of defeat. They hold events where no one keeps score, where no one wins or loses. Little Leagues for baseball, softball, and football do this too early on. The … [Read more...]
Are all religions pretty much the same?
May 22, 2014 by 12 Comments
Broadly speaking, skeptics rarely differentiate between the world's religions. When it comes to the real or perceived evils done in the name of religion, or by religious adherents they're one in the same. This is especially true when discussing Islamic terrorism or the Crusades and Inquisition. … [Read more...]
Is God all-loving? Is He all-forgiving?
May 21, 2014 by 128 Comments
Yesterday morning whilst enjoying my breakfast at my favorite restaurant, a friend of mine made a comment in response to something (I don't recall what) that God is all forgiving, all merciful, and all loving. I actually hear this a lot. It's usually offered as a rejoinder to my claims that some … [Read more...]
What do we deserve?
May 19, 2014 by 13 Comments
Even after having thought about this particular subject for some many years, I'm still not sure how to articulate it adequately. I'm sure you've said, or heard someone else say "I deserve..." or, "I really don't deserve...". These pleadings are usually offered within the context of something the … [Read more...]
How should we interpret Holy Writ?
May 14, 2014 by 25 Comments
Regardless of the subject matter, all communication needs to be interpreted. Someone with my convictions, how I should be going about interpreting the Bible is vitally important. Let me explain what I mean since it might not be evident. I'm not talking about what a particular passage means, as … [Read more...]
I’m the reason you’re not a Christian?
May 12, 2014 by 15 Comments
'Why don't you believe God exists?' is asked of professing Atheists all the time. One of the answers I hear most: no one has given me a good enough reason/enough evidence to believe in God. This answer seems vacant to me, and should be to the Atheist who offers it, especially a philosophically … [Read more...]
Liberalism is always on the wrong side of life
May 9, 2014 by 80 Comments
This need not be a long post in order to convey a recent observation concerning liberalism and life. They always seem to be on the wrong side of it. Liberalism is pro-abortion. Elective abortion intentionally takes the life of innocent human beings for reasons of convenience and … [Read more...]
Emily Letts is the worst kind of pro-choicer
May 8, 2014 by 13 Comments
For those who don't know who Emily Letts is, she is the young woman who set out to document her "positive" abortion story. She filmed herself before, during -- yes, during -- and after her abortion to show us all how great the whole experience can be. So why do I say Emily is the worst kind … [Read more...]
SCOTUS rules that offended Atheists need to relax
May 6, 2014 by 15 Comments
It never ceases to amaze me when an activist group of Atheists complain that public prayers by public officials hurts their feelings and makes them feel excluded. It really is silliness. It has never been unconstitutional to begin official government activities with prayer, especially Christian … [Read more...]
