Why I took so long to accept evolution - a.k.a. Why every christian should read their own bible. “part of what helped me along was actually reading the Bible in high school, being horrified by much of it”
Religion and Sexual Ethics - A nice summary of the moral position of various religions. Interesting to compare catholicism and buddhism side by side! (I think I’m with the Buddhists, here)
LOL cat Bible - Personally, I hate this pathetic LOLspeak crap, although this picture is funny… “In teh beginning, Invisible Man make univerz. Invisible Man say, I can has light. Gots light.”
I saw this clip on TV tonight (The Chaser, an Australian comedy show, are playing repeats at the moment), and I thought it was funny. If you haven’t heard of these guys, I suggest you check out their show (currently taking a break) - you can download it at the ABC website.
Let me hear you say “I will empty the contents of my wallet into that little collection plate when it comes around…. hallelujah!”
A writer friend of mine writes humorous short stories every couple of days on a blog called The Double Agent. His most recent post was not only humorous, but highly appropriate for this blog. (also reminded me of someone else you might know):
One human soul - sure, it may slightly used, and more than a little tarnished around the edges and the conscience, but the damage is nothing that can’t be made clean with some minor acts of penitence, a couple hundred Hail Marys and some good old fashioned elbow grease. Single White Male, Good Sense Of Humour, reserve price US$1,000,000,000.00 with considerations met.
Ok, so his asking price is a little steep, but it’s worth a read if you like a good laugh. You might also consider subscribing to his RSS feed (oh, and mine, if you haven’t already!)- he writes well, I promise!
What Evolution Left Behind On Humans - “I?ve always been fascinated with human evolution. To me, the most fascinating part of human evolution is learning about what was ?left behind? on our bodies from our ancestors and from our prenatal development.”
Wife Beating - It?s therapeutic - I’m glad someone’s cleared this up. Wife beating is not a rule, it’s just therapeutic. Oh, but there are limits!
