I've always been a fan of XTC's "Dear God," and Sarah McLachlan's version is a bit less powerful but easier to understand (which doesn't explain so many errors in the lyrics in that video...
Well, bloodstains on the wall would be a turn-off, but I think I'd be okay with it. I have no idea what happened in my house or any of the apartments I lived in before I got there, and I'm just not that curious as long as it didn't compromise the st…
No, no it applies to Jeff Dunham as well. He's so unfunny that even the puppets' additional magical comedy boost only gets him up to the level you see on his show.
Man, that's sad...
Umm, it's 'cause puppets don't believe in god? Or maybe it's a metaphor for religion's control over it's minions?
Either way, puppets make everything 64% funnier!
I got a nice little smile at the "Pilgrimage to the Holy Land" ad on the side of this page. Does that make me happy? I'm a comedian (improv/stand-up/acting) currently in rehearsals for a dream role. Does that mean I'm happy? I've been married to a w…
Yeah, I signed too earlier this afternoon. I'm hoping for a little change; not much, but doing nothing means I don't get to gripe about it, and I do love to gripe...
Atheism is accused of selfishness. Instead of charity, Kiva gives people an opportunity to lend money to entrepreneurs in disadvantaged countries so they can start or grow their business.
I don't associate music with any important events from my past, but I've definitely experienced certain songs triggering completely unrelated memories. Bread's Manna album (yes, I'm old... I was born that way) used to always make me think of lying o…
I'm not a country fan any more than I'm a religion fan, but I fell in love with Mary Chapin Carpenter's "Between Here and Gone" album and the ones that followed it. That cd contains many religious references, not surprising since it seems to be focu…
Hey, Mike, aren't you going to tell us about the fabulous national award you recently won, and how you'll use the fame and power that accompanies it? ^_^
My boss is pretty active in his church, but his brother is a Unitarian, so it isn't an issue of dealing with hardcore fundamentalism. There are a handful of very christian folks at work who don't want to hear about it, so I don't mention it. There's…
Mucho arigatou, Nathan! I've checked out a few of your vids on YouTube, and it looks like the camera will do what I need. My Mac arrived just today, but it'll be a week or so before I even open the box. Always busy during the war on Christmas season…
I consider myself a humanist. I've recorded two volumes of Ingersoll's lectures for LibriVox.org. I do stand-up and improv comedy and lots of theatre. I starred in a short film earlier this year. My feet are cold.

I don't see how she could when she gets older and realizes her rapist wasn't punished by them, but the doctor who helped her was. That's going to create dissonance.
I don't think what you said was racist. The person you mentioned was racist, it's condescending to have a double standard toward reverse racists. Some groups (I'm thinking of religions more than races) want to overbreed in hope of dominating by shee…
Indeed. Speaking up over the large and the small illustrate how pervasive discrimination is. I would raise hell over any type of discrimination based on my lack of religion.
In recent years in Quebec we've gone through a 'new' tolerance phase (as opposed to our old "intolerance" stance on language and French culture). It got dubbed:
Les "accommodements raisonnables" or les "accommodements religieux"
This was a politica…
Hey, the rest of those are up to debate, but the world will definitely be a better place without religion. If anything people can start being honest with themselves! Hate those different from you? Instead of justifying with religious creed just come…
Yeap, sounds like bible reading and lots and lots of prayers. I'm a very practical person. If you don't feel confortable about it, just don't go. It is terrible to be in a place where you don't feel confortable and it is worst to be among people you…
