Free Speech and the Prophet Muhammad

I'm might just go back to church...

sometimes, you just have to side with jeebus.

For The New Year...

I should learn to f'ing relax. For reals. Some meditation advice from Motherearth.com:

How to Meditate

To elicit the relaxation response via meditation:

• Find a quiet place with a comfortable chair.
• Sit with eyes closed.
• Select a word or phrase — one, peace, ice cream — whatever. That’s your “mantra.”
• Silently repeat your mantra. Begin with a minute or two. Work up to 20 minutes once or twice a day.
• While meditating, try to empty your mind of other thoughts. Assume a passive, accepting, nonjudgmental attitude. When distracting thoughts intrude — they’re inevitable — notice them, accept them, then dismiss them as you refocus on your mantra.

In another type of meditation, breath meditation, there is no mantra. Practitioners focus on their breath. The other steps remain the same.

There's Probably No God So Stop Worrying About It.

I often feel shame for the way I believe. It's a natural response of humans to shun those who do not look, act or believe the same as themselves. That does not make it right. Many christians feel threatened or pity me if I speak of god not existing. It automatically makes me a devil worshiper. Quite the contrary. I have more compassion and understanding than most of the people who claim to be children of god. I have my moments and I'm not perfect, but Christians as a whole project more hate then most other groups I come across. Here's a cause I can believe. I am now a humanist.

Have you heard of the power of Bacon, my lord and savior?

Baconlightenment.

The Five Baconic Laws

• Thou shalt not consider Bacon on the same level as any other food, as it is above all.
• Thou shalt not consume imitation Bacon.
• Thou shalt not stop pursuing Baconlightenment until it is reached.
• Thou shalt not forget to consume Bacon for ten days.
• Thou shalt spread the word of Bacon to all.

Finally! A religion I can get into.
