I know this has been somewhat of a theme lately, but it keeps coming up almost everywhere I go. This one is hardly even related, but it got me thinking and… here we are again!
Why is it that so many people to day have terrible expectations of reality? What was wrong with their home life that got them to where they are today?
Let’s talk about it. Continue reading Poor Expectations of Reality
I don’t usually watch videos like this, but it just came along and I gave it a view. It’s called “Why Do Bosses HATE Working with Gen Z?” and, as a boss myself, I have often had that very same experience myself. I will link the video down below the fold if you want to take a look yourself, but I just wanted to take a couple of minutes to talk about it.
So let’s get started. Continue reading Maybe That’s Your Problem?
This is going to be a quick one, but earlier today, someone asked a quick science question and I provided an accurate answer. They didn’t like it much.
The question was, “if suddenly, all time stopped, but you were the only thing unaffected, what would happen?”
It just wouldn’t go well for you. Continue reading Ask the Right Question!
I know they are, but how? I got called for jury duty. It’s not a big deal, they don’t want me anyhow, but I got called for next week and I’m going to be out of town.
Therefore, I jumped on the website to put it off and… well, you’ll have to see that for yourself. How can these people be so stupid? I sure don’t understand! Continue reading The Courts Can’t Be This Dumb!
I don’t talk about movies and TV shows much over here, that’s mostly something for my other blog, but I figured it fit here because of the reasons it bombed, of which there are a lot.
So, why do I think the director of Haunted Mansion has a lot of problems? The same reason I think a lot of Hollywood has a lot of problems.
Let’s explore it. Continue reading Oh Look, Haunted Mansion Bombed!
This popped up today and I just had to talk about it. I’m not saying that all of them are especially egregious, but in my experience, a fair number of them are.
Over on Reddit, on a generally unrelated post, someone said that they knew that no gods were real. I asked him how he knew. It didn’t go well for him.
In fact, I had two very similar discussions and since I can’t be bothered to go back and separate them, I figure I’ll just lump the various dumb claims together. It doesn’t matter anyhow. Continue reading Gnostic Atheists are Idiots Too!
I’ve been doing a lot of re-evaluating lately, especially the social media that I consume. I’ve always recognized that there were problems with the YouTube channels that I watched and the social media platforms I perused because most of them are very openly biased. They have views that aren’t especially honest. They are based, in one way or another, on what they really want to be true.
I want to change it but I don’t know that I have a lot of options. Continue reading Tired of Unjustified Bias
There’s a theist over on the channel, as usual, making all kinds of accusations and pretty much following the standard religious party line. You know, “I’m not here to debate” and “we have evidence!” and all that.
I was thinking about where he was going to go next. These people are almost always very predictable. I’ve already tentatively taken on faith and the Bible, although there’s plenty of work still to do if he decides to go that way, but I was also wondering how long it would be before he reached “we have eyewitnesses!”
That’s what I want to talk about today. Continue reading Lawyers are just Actors
The more I talk to atheists, the dumber a lot of them are. Yes, I said atheists. Just because you reject belief in a god, that doesn’t necessarily make you a rational individual.
That happened again today, so I wanted to take a couple of minutes to explain. This is not at all unusual. These people really have no clue what they’re doing wrong. Continue reading Atheists Aren’t Much Smarter
So there was a recent survey done by the Barna Group, a Christian research organization, which shows that Christianity is in dire straights indeed.
Mindshift did a pretty decent video on it, so I’ll link that below, and the suggestion that I’ve seen on the new research has been largely positive. That things will improve dramatically, as religion dies in the west.
I’m not so sure that’s true though. Here’s why. Continue reading Getting Rid of Religion Won’t Solve Problems
