Conundrum #0347 – The American Office
Seven American states still ban Atheists from holding office. This is an insult to any American with an IQ above an ant. It’s a conundrum and I say this with some smuggishiness in my left eyebrow. Is the American political system afraid of Atheists because Atheist cannot be bothered with eternal hell or whatever. Or… Continue reading
The secret why charismatic churches say nothing
Ever wonder why pastors of charismatic churches, and lately more conservative churches preach without anyone understanding what they are saying.

Superstition and reason – the evolution of religion
Superstition and reason stand on the opposite sides of the road. Superstition is based on fear of the unknown, reason embraces the unknown. The Neolithic man lived twelve thousand years ago. All things around him seemed to conspire for his death. He did not understand nature and did not differentiate animate from inanimate objects. He… Continue reading
To adore God is to adore fiction.
Religion avoids embarrassment by telling us that we don’t need to know what God is. We must revere God without knowing Him. It must be unconditional faith, no questions asked, not even about Him and why he does certain things. Here is the problem I see. Humans can only adore, revere and love something tangible….
