Comments, Trees and Celebration… It’s not just for Christians

“Curious how many of you out there have had a similar experience. Any things you would now like to claim as your own, and not as a result of God randomly choosing to make it happen for you?”
I’m curious to know why you are curious about this. Are you seeking validation?
Also, now that you [...]

When Things Come Together

I’ve been working very hard on some projects, and the months of hard work is beginning to pay off.  I’m getting some traction, getting some interest and seeing this happen makes all the late nights and hard work really pay off.  The other night, I got to thinking… when I was a Christian… everything coming [...]

Tithing Kiosk… Ummm…

Published by leavingreligion under Christianity, Church

The “Giving Kiosk” is a product that makes me go, “Why the hell didn’t I think of that!?”  Not really, because I could never live with myself… but seriously… it’s a little crazy.  I just can’t imagine walking into church where there is a flashing kiosk asking me for my money.

Although, thinking about it more, [...]

I wish I knew then…

If I knew then what I know now I would have:

Questioned the church leaders a LOT more, and made them actually answer my questions
Stopped being friends with people just because I thought I had to be (even though I didn’t like them!)
Told that church going asshole that he WAS an ASSHOLE
Dated that nice non-christian guy [...]

I Liked The Night Life…

Okay, wait a minute.  You must be kidding right… there is church… at night!?  What kind of amazing utopia is this?  I get to come in on Sunday morning, sing, worship, study the Bible, hang with friends… then I get to have lunch with my friends… then I get to hang out with my friends [...]

The First Fix

Okay, so you’ve heard the beginning… I’m going to fast forward just a little bit, becuase the really interesting stuff is from my high school and early college years.  I could practically write about every single day during these years.  I was intense… and it was for good reason.  I had gone through a lot, [...]

Get Married Young – So you can have sex!

Found this funny… especially after I read the article about promoting marriages at a young age.  The fact is, most don’t wait, and those that do can have just as many issues as those that don’t.  It’s hard to believe that this is considered an answer to the failing abstinence message.  How about you tell [...]

So… I’m Saved… Now What?

This is the next in the series I’m writing about my personal experience in becoming, being and ultimately not being a Christian.  This ’series’ is really the heart of my blog, as it is really why I started it.  To share with others who may be going through what I did (and to share with [...]

Get Your Holy Jewelry – From This Vending Machine

Published by leavingreligion under Christianity, Fun

Today on BoingBoing I ran across this interesting item… and am pretty sure, even when I was a Christian, I never would have bought any of this crap.  Amazing how many different ways the Christian religion can be used to make a buck.

When Others Piss Me Off

As I sit here at the salon I am reminded that I can still get angry at the religion I left behind, Christianity. I am listening to a group of women, who apparently know everything, talk about someone who was sick.
Apparently this person turned to alternative medicine, in addition to modern medicine. They [...]
