A Welcoming Howl to You!
Knowledge is power, power corrupts, and absolute knowledge corrupts absolutely.
Hey there! Welcome! Leave a comment, I like comments.
Let's see, what to write here? Maybe current stuff? Not much is happening at the moment. Let see I am on a few forums, mostly RPG related, but just to say on about all of them that allow custom avatars I use the pic I made here. I often use Direwolf, Siliconwolf, or Furrywolf depending on what is taken. So if you see the avatar then it is me.

A different book for inauguration?

It is only a few hours after Obama took the oath of office to become the President of the United States. And part of that was that he placed his hand on a Bible used by Lincoln, something which as been pointed out quite a bit in the news with the historic nature of the book has been talked about. Now perhaps it should be that no Bible at all should be used at all, but I was also thinking about it and wondering if instead of just saying drop the Bible something that might be attempted is to come… Continue

From looking, the show is presented as being investigative, using technology to check the claims and such, but I don't know really if they have a bias towards or against the creatures they are… Continue
“Spirituality”
Posted on October 30, 2008 at 2:33pm 0 Comments 0 Likes
I have been thinking about the idea of spirituality and its relationship to religion and then my own atheistic outlook. It is something that has actually been bouncing around in my mind because of some reading at the beginning of Godless by Dan Barker as well as some discussions on various podcasts. Well the most recent podcast is the Secular Nation Podcast #20 where David Driscoll is interviewing David E. Comings and the idea of… Continue

I understand the religious because I have always been able to suspend disbelief. I was lucky to have been the product of atheist/socialist working class European grandparents, and non-attending lapsed Anglicans, so my personal susceptibility…

It feels pretty to be here!
I'm searching online for the articles stating the impact of atheism in India as it has a stronghold of Hinduism. Can you please help me regarding this?
