Forget the Birth Certificate…

…I want to see Nature’s Engineering Degree! Yet another installment of, “How an Incredible Design TOTALLY Supports the Theory of Evolution!”  Courtesy of Wired Magazine. High-Speed Video of Locusts Could Help Make Better Flying Robots Oh how I long for the day when the evolutionist crowd can manage to kick out some puff piece without [...]

Hate Crimes and That Cold Chill They Bring.

Listening to the radio on the way to work this morning, I heard something that chilled me to my very core.  I literally got a chill down my spine.  I quite literally spoke out loud, “Oh, shit.” It was a “top of the hour” news blurb about how the push for Hate Crimes legislation is [...]

It’s “Merry Christmas.” Deal with it.

Ya know, I was all set to pen some snarky post about how people just need to get over themselves, highlighting all the manner of mental flatulence surrounding peoples’ bizarre and over-compensating back-bending with regards to political correctness and not “offending” anyone with the grim specter of a baby in a manger. But then I figured, [...]

Explaining abortion to an 11 year old

So, we’re all sitting around the dinner table, having a variety of discussions as we often do, and the Medium Sized child throws this one out on the table and lets it flop around for a second: “Dad, what’s ‘abortion?’” GULP! Cue slightly stunned and discomfited pause the Imperial Wife and myself. Uh…… “Hon, that’s not [...]

Thoughts for the day #875, etc.

Of course I think my religious beliefs are right, and yours are wrong.  Otherwise, they wouldn’t BE my religious beliefs, now would they?!  What kind of mental gymnastics does it take to come to the place where you can say, “All approaches to religious faith are equally valid.”  Bull-puckey.  What you are really saying is [...]

Where’s that Theocracy now, beotches?

For the better part of 8 years, the frothing fringe Truther crowd, the associated Code Pink nutjobs and other hangers-on have been pounding the table and swearing on a stack of Communist Manifestos that ol’ G.W. was hell-bent on setting up an oppressive Right Wing Dominionist Theocracy, complete with a modern krystalnacht rounding up gays, [...]

Thoughts from my Bible Study this morning.

Denying God in your heart is, ultimately, the only sin that really matters.  The things you do as a result of this turning away are like dust on your feet, easily brushed away.  They are the symptoms, not the disease.  The sin you fight is not the actions your mind or body takes, but rather, the [...]

SB 777 – Banning “Hate Speech” In Our Schools!

If you haven’t heard of it, which you just might not have, since when I “Googled” it I didn’t get a single hit from a major media outlet, SB 777 is an amendment to the State of California’s Education Code which, among other things, removes the following definition in the original: “Sex” means the biological [...]

The Thinks That I Think

I think that:  Enforcing immigration laws isn’t racist. Abortion does not “liberate” women. If you want to be treated equally, don’t claim special privilege because you’re a minority. I’d be interested to see what percentage of gun-related crimes are committed with a legally-purchased gun, by the owner of said gun?  I’m sure it’s out there [...]

SPC Jeremy Hall: Atheist With A Mission

This wasn’t really the article with which I planned to start off the New Year, but it would seem that SPC Jeremy Hall himself (about whom I’ve blogged in the past) has been posting some comments to one of those blarticles.   Which, if you must know, I think is pretty dang cool.  A celebrity. Posting.  On [...]
