So, I have this old YouTube account, that I mostly use to dick about with, and I had a few old videos. Well, I decided to clean it out, and start doing videos again. It's using the webcam on my laptop so it may not be very good, but hey....it's a start right?

The new pope says we atheists can also go to heaven as long we do good works. "Do good" he says and "we all will have a meeting point". If the rest of the Catholic Church follows up on this statement with actions that demonstrate sincerity, we may be in for a new era in relations between the Church and the community of freethinkers. This statement is a major departure from traditional teaching. All previous…

I think most religions are either cults or behave or have the potential to behave in a cult-like way.  The Branch Davidians and the Jonestown Massacre are two extreme examples of religion gone wrong.  Most religious people do not behave in this sort of way, some are highly-controlling and bigoted towards those who don't fit into the group's conception of who and what they think people should be or non-members.  I consider the JW's, the SDA's, CS, COC, WCOG, the Unification…

Here's a very interesting read that talks about natural selection that has occurred in under 40 years. This is amazing support for evolution and how quickly a species can adapt for its very survival.

"To lead an uninstructed people to war is to throw them swsy>"

Confucius

“Youth is the first victim of war; the first fruit of peace.  It takes twenty years of peace or more to make a man; it takes only twenty seconds of war to destroy him.”

King Baudouin I of Belgium

I found it digusting that some religious charities discriminate against certain people like the Salvation Army discriminates and refuses to serve  sexually active same-sex couples specifically and destroying toys that have magical themes. Wow! I would never use their services no matter how desperate I would be. Even if I were still religious I would not support an organization that endorses discrimination in employing and it providing its service.  What are your…

What is your take on the Abrahamic god's origins? I always though that " Jehovah" was an ugly name for the Abrahamic god which the JW's are conviced is his 'true' name which is a lie.  They even acknowledged in an earlier publication that his name is Yahweh.  The letter J does not exist in Hebrew . The Abrahamic god's real name is Yahweh aka YHWH , not ' Jehovah' or Allah.  Most Christian denominations accept for the Mormons and other LDS branches of Mormonism and a few other Christian…

With all the media attention the on the Pope, important stories are being missed, human rights violations, Monsanto protection act, Russia march to blasphemy laws, and of the big story this week did Harry Potter vanquish dementors?

One of the many religions that I had once belonged to was Wicca.  It seems to me a lot of Wiccans but not all as well as some members of other Neo-Pagan groups seek the uncritical and unconditional acceptance from Christians and folk of other religions for their beliefs.  This is understandable in its own way but I think you'd be wasting your time with the fundamentalists adherents of any non-neopagan religion.  They don't want to accept or agree with anyone else's religious beliefs other…

I work in healthcare in a long term care facility and I deal with death on a regular basis. About a year ago the opportunity arose for me to take a palliative care course through my work.  I enjoyed it for the most part. It dealt with topics such as end of life care, pain relief and addressing the spiritual needs of different individuals based on their religious beliefs.

There was one instance however that was decidedly unpleasant, and unfortunately really overshadowed the rest of my…

Actually, the rednecks are here and everywhere. Let me say, I'm not a big fan of these people. That's putting it mildly. Need I describe them? You know who I mean.

This seems to be the time of year when they come out of the woodwork. Here in Indiana, as the weather gets nice, the motorcyclists are out in full force. I hate the noise cycles make. Then there's the Indianapolis 500 fans, the majority of which are rednecks. Interview them or a typical Pacer fan (big news as they face the…

Nathan Young That's true Jonathan Brown.  At one time I was a member of the MRA board when it was more open towards hearing an orthodox Mormon views on things.  Since that time the MRA is now under the stewardship of a new 'religion' the 'Society for Humanistic Mormonism' which is merely another apostate religion.  It will fail just like all other apostate forms of Mormonism have failed including might I add the Mormon "Transhumanist" Association and their kind, and all the front…

Hello fellow atheists!  I have joined this site in an attempt to find other rational individuals, such as myself, and to promote a current charity drive that I am trying to get going for the Oklahoma tornado victims.  I have managed to get many groups from around my area, including the Beyond Belief Foundation to back me on this endeavor. 

I am located in Newnan, Ga and have my own atheist group entitled "Coweta County Atheists".  I am currently being backed by Spaulding Co.…

There is a video of the Pope's 'exorcism' caught on film.  The man isn't demon possessed, there are likely no 'real' demons.  He's just delusional and doesn't want to accept personal responsiblity for his own behavior for his own dysfunctional life.
