Comparing Buddhism, Christianity and Islam
Wed May 16, 2012 6:20 AM EDT
I was reading an article earlier by an atheist who went off on his fellow atheists for childish Facebook pictures created to make religious people (Christians) feel stupid. I wish I could find the article again. I looked but to no avail. Anyways, the main thrust of his article wa …

God pays a visit.
Tue May 15, 2012 4:21 PM EDT
Even though I am an atheist, I would be thrilled if one day God revealed itself to the world. Regardless of what anyone tries to convince you of, there is absolutely no evidence that any human has ever had any real connection with God, conscious or otherwise. Many ar …

America is Paralyzed By Social Issues
Tue May 15, 2012 6:08 AM EDT

Good People, Bad People and Propaganda
Fri May 11, 2012 7:30 AM EDT
I had an interesting exchange on Sunshine Girl's latest article. Her article was superbly written by the way. One of the best I've ever read on the Vine, actually. The gist of it was whether religion made people do immoral things. I hope Sunshine Girl doesn't mind me using her po …
