First off.  I won't follow anyone else's idea about how this post should be written.  In fact, I won't follow anyone's idea about anything except my own.  Actually, that's coming daringly close to being a positive since that's true of all candidates, but I admit it.  That makes me look honest.  Hmmm...   Second, I really don't care about 95% of other people.  And I don't believe politics does either, but like we established a moment ago, I admit it. ...

First, I need to state that I saw this first courtesy of my good friend Mark on his blog, This View of Life . I can only pray to science for forgiveness, but a miracle is a miracle and ought to be shared.   Maybe you haven't heard of the famous cheese sandwich that miraculously came with a picture of the Virgin Mary on it.  Here's a picture.     You can google any combination of Virgin, Mary, cheese, and toast and find articles about this miracle. &nb...

Ok, this will offend somebody since being offended has become a world-wide pastime, but screw it. I thought it was funny. What is the hardest part about learning to rollerblade? (Answer in comments)

And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the LORD. Genesis 4:1 Adam knew her. I wonder if someday the Newest Translation Bible will say it how it is. Adam had sex with his wife. Is it so abhorrent a thing? Well, maybe. See the part where eating a fruit makes your genitals something to be ashamed of. 3 And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD. 4 And ...

Maybe I'm a masochist of a different variety. I like discussing religion - basically of all types, but the only ones that seem to generate any healthy (and maybe sometimes not so healthy) debate are Christians. So I'm re-reading the King James bible to reacquaint myself with certain things in it that - I'm sorry - to me make no sense. I'm not expecting much debate on this stuff, really, because debate requires logic, and there is no logic to be found in a lot of this. It isn't meant to de...

I didn't know whether to put this in religion or humor, and then I decided. Humor. Probably the funniest damned thing I've heard in a while. Here's the story, believe it or not. By Matthew Philips Newsweek Aug. 20-27, 2007 issue - In one of history's more absurd acts of totalitarianism, China has banned Buddhist monks in Tibet from reincarnating without government permission. According to a statement issued by the State Administration for Religious Affairs, the law, which goes in...

A friend of my Spouse Unit sent this to her. It's worth a read and a chuckle. Enjoy. With elections coming up, this is an issue we should all decide. The first question should be: How can you tell the difference between Democrats, Republicans and Southern Republicans? The answer can be found by contemplating the following situation: Let's say you're walking down a deserted street with your wife and two small children. Suddenly, a dangerous looking man with a huge knif...
