Asking the hard questions

The last few days I have had the opportunity to open up a few minds. I have been working on a friend of mine for several months now on opening up her thinking to other ideas besides the narrow tract of...see misery, confusion, pain, and heartache caused by religion in them.  They will put on a brave face and say otherwise, but I know better.  I wish it was a pill that you could slip in their drink

A theological revision; a clarification, if you will.

In about a week, I'll be catching up with Johnno. Those of you who've been reading my journal since 2004 will remember Johnno - Mr Johnson - as the teacher of my Study Of Religion class at high school...as I post this entry and wonder how people will reply, if anybody will reply, those feelings are really at their peak.

I was friends with my neighbor, C, ever since I moved to my childhood home at age 4.  We were about the same age, but he was kept back a year in second grade, so we were one grade apart in school.  Eventually...that made him feel special in a way real life didn't.

My Deconversion Part 1: My Christian Roots

Intro There's a funny thing about skepticism, and that is that most skeptics end up becoming athiests or agnostics.  In my discussions with  cutopia  and others, when I brought up my recent interest...and comparing it against the Christianity I had been taught, and it probably played a big role in my wandering from Christianity and exploring other religions.  But that's a story for a future segment
