skepticali: Objective Moral Values - the 2016 Edition
http://skepticali.blogspot.com/2016/02/objective-moral-values-2016-edition.html
Skeptical in California. 'nuff said. Saturday, February 13, 2016. Objective Moral Values - the 2016 Edition. I tried to post the following on The Secular Outpost. But Disqus yakked up a hairball when I tried to log in, so I’m posting it here. Read the post first. If you’d like context. Jeffrey Jay Lowder was inviting an open discussion on objective moral values. I’m with the “approachable scientifically” contingent. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

skepticali: July 2016
http://skepticali.blogspot.com/2016_07_01_archive.html
Skeptical in California. 'nuff said. Sunday, July 24, 2016. Validating God - for Dummies. I, the believer, get to define God. Not completely, but I take what I have heard from my parents, my siblings, the kids in the neighborhood, and my Sunday School teachers, and I fashion a mental picture of God that may - or may not - resemble other concepts of God that others may have. Does my God-Concept match the one in the Bible? You must be kidding! I won’t know what that is for another 30 or 40 years. But if I&...

skepticali: Investigating the World
http://skepticali.blogspot.com/2015/12/investigating-world.html
Skeptical in California. 'nuff said. Thursday, December 31, 2015. Today, this blog is as good a place as any to jot down an idea that is probably in the foundation of any religious person's world view. I 'm presuming that to be religious in the way that I once was decades ago, one has to accept the following premises:. There is a Supernatural component to reality. The Supernatural contains entities that can affect our existence. The Supernatural realm has some relationship to the soul. Blogs and Web Sites.

An Atheist Re-Reads the Bible: Heroes
http://atheistreadsbible.blogspot.com/2013/12/heroes.html
An Atheist Re-Reads the Bible. Monday, December 16, 2013. The great atheist heroes of the ages are not necessarily my heroes. I admire Michael Shermer, Hemant Mehta, and sometimes Sam Harris. Who else? Dawkins. I'm not sure. Hitchens? Definitely not. Atheist feminist bloggers? Note: Only a member of this blog may post a comment. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

An Atheist Re-Reads the Bible: April 2011
http://atheistreadsbible.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
An Atheist Re-Reads the Bible. Sunday, April 24, 2011. When you're an atheist, a religious holiday sneaks up on you. Someone on Freecycle asked for plants and I offered her one of mine. I told her she could pick it up any time. "Oh," she emailed. "I don't want to interfere with your Easter. I'll pick it up sometime on Tuesday.". I replied that we don't celebrate Easter, so she could drop by any time. Life is easier without silly holiday celebrations, whether secular or religious. Links to this post.

An Atheist Re-Reads the Bible: August 2012
http://atheistreadsbible.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
An Atheist Re-Reads the Bible. Sunday, August 26, 2012. Leviticus 20: 1 to 21. It seems as though it would be much easier to re-read the Bible and write about it if I were actually reading the part I like- the Old Testament- instead of the New Testament, which I find boring (not as many battles, JC says a lot of weird, conflicting things, Paul hates women, and so on). Let's play a game and see how many of these laws I've broken:. I am not fond of my parents, but he seems to be talking about cursing them ...

An Atheist Re-Reads the Bible: May 2011
http://atheistreadsbible.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
An Atheist Re-Reads the Bible. Saturday, May 21, 2011. But of that day and hour knoweth no man. People are interested in the latest prediction of the end of the world- perhaps not because they believe in it, but because someone has the audacity to make a prediction and, as has happened before ( see William Miller. The one making the prediction has followers. But not all Christians think the prediction should be taken seriously. See: Varieties of end-time believers. And Why there will be no rapture. And t...

An Atheist Re-Reads the Bible: September 2011
http://atheistreadsbible.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
An Atheist Re-Reads the Bible. Thursday, September 22, 2011. This is probably why I'm an atheist in the first place- I seem to be incapable of agreeing with anyone else about faith, religion, and atheism. One of my colleagues explained my atheism to another person this way (interestingly enough, he was a still-believing former minister): "She's an atheist because she *thought* about it.".

An Atheist Re-Reads the Bible: An atheist's despair
http://atheistreadsbible.blogspot.com/2012/01/atheists-despair.html
An Atheist Re-Reads the Bible. Sunday, January 1, 2012. Notice on this list that the nature of God is described in many different terms, but they leave out grumpy asshole (hey, they even leave out angry, even though God describes himself that way):. Http:/ www.godonthe.net/evidence/atribute.htm. January 14, 2012 at 7:04 PM. Way to do your research. I have done a lot of writing on the exact same subject :).
