Acoffeeism: Why God Matters to Atheists

As you can see below, I haven’t been posting much. I should also mention there has been a lot of web work as well that’s adding to that pile o’ stress. However, we got slightly more hopeful news in the case of my dad, but we’re still just waiting… Anyway, I love tea. I used [...]

Stressed… to the Extreme!

My blogging has slowed down. I’ve been stressed. My father has lung cancer and they say its not good, though we’re still waiting on the final results. Even so, they don’t give him very long. This has been a very sad time for me being 3000 miles away. Eric & I’ll be going “home” to [...]

JERUSALEM (AFP) – Tens of thousands of Jewish faithful turned out before sunrise on Wednesday in front of the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem and elsewhere in the country to bless the sun in a prayer said once every 28 years.

Faith does not equal knowledge

My husband recently had a status-off on Facebook with an old Christian fundy friend, let’s call her Eve. Many of the points she said made didn’t make much sense, but that’s not what propelled me write. Eve, using her very own special brand of circular logic, did what many Christians do: confused faith with knowledge. [...]

Alonzo Fyfe has a great post at The Atheist Ethicist concerning Tyra’s silence. And Tyra Blanks is, at best, afraid to [...]
