Evolution describes (and through the theory of evolution, endeavors to explain) the changes in gene frequencies that occur in populations of living organisms over time, and thus, presupposes that life already exists. Evolution likewise says nothing about cosmology, the Big… Continue

27 Celebrities You Probably Didn’t Know Are Atheists
Atheism: Disbelief in or denial of the existence of God or gods.
Usually a taboo subject for mainstream media and general dinner-table talks, atheism has recently become somewhat of a comfortable stance for people as a way of life. A lot of closed-minded people consider Atheists and non-believers to be evil, often comparing them to the likes of people like Adolf Hitler and saying such things as “Hitler was an atheist, and look how that turned out”… when in fact Hitler…

I am a Volvo fan so I started admiring it. When out steps the occupant... a Priest.
Now seeing a priest at a gas station in the northern states might be more common, but here in Florida it's rare. Especially in full black with the collar.

The Meteor Shower that Gave us Christianity (cracked.com)
The fact that there are two billion or so Christians in the world today is largely due to one guy: Constantine the Great. He's the Roman emperor who legalized Christianity, converted to Christianity himself and cleared the path for spreading the religion throughout Europe and then across the globe.

I have an Idea...
What I don't like is seeing a blind link to a random site with a message saying "here's my blog" in a blog post.
How about posting what it's about, or an article from it?? I am not going to click on a link just because you say it's your blog.
It also clogs up our front page with what looks like spam links.
