I Thought I Was Out..

I used to run a blog on WordPress called "Like An Infidel In Mecca" and I used to post stuff on it regularly when living with my ex-girlfriend but I got bored and stopped. Now I wanted to see if I could do it again but I am very busy with work. As some of you who know me personally will attest I can get very outspoken however lately it's just become so tiring and as I said before I am just so busy with my new work project. However, just today I was pointed to an article written by Christian apologist Robert Clifton Robinson on the Evidence For God. I doubt the two people reading this who maybe just maybe followed my old blog would expect me to engage however I am genuinely interested in ANY new argument for the existence of God and I've not engaged with an apologist in quite awhile.

When I See A MAGA Hat

When I see someone wearing that hat I assume certain things like how they've been conned by a professional con who doesn't even understand how completely misguided he is.

They don't care about being right they care about having their opinions justified. They say they want to make America great again but they don't understand what they really want is for America to go back to a past that will never return. They're wanting to bring the natio

Bring Back Prayer In Schools? It Never Left

With yet another school shooting  Political Evangelicals (people who want the government to give preferential treatment to Christianity) are back with their lamentation that the problem with school shootings is that God was taken from schools. Some even go as far as to spread the false notion that God isn't allowed in schools. God was never taken out of schools. What happened was schools required students to read from the Bible and required teachers and faculty to lead prayers. It was Christians and Jews who argued against the Bible being required to be read from by students and Christians, Jews and one Atheist who argued against faculty-led prayer. Students, however, have full religious freedom in school. Students are legally permitted to pray on their own, read their Bible in school during free time, wear religious clothing, jewelry, etc. Trust me as long as there are pop quizzes there will be prayer in schools. Political Evangelicals seem to want their religion to be mandated
