Periodically (weekly I believe) there’s a chat on Twitter about science fiction called appropriately enough, SciFiChat. The whole think is conducted by making sure that everyone involved includes the hashtag #scifichat in their tweets. This ensures that everyone can see what’s being said even if you don’t follow everyone involved. You can [...]

My Sainted Mother once told me (I’m sure of this though I don’t remember the precise instance) that if I didn’t have anything nice to say that I shouldn’t say anything at all. Of course Mom also said that there was a Santa Clause and a Tooth Fairy so she’s not exactly batting a [...]

Sid asked that I drop a post on Dominionism and never one to turn down a reasonable request I figured I’d take a stab. I started out by taking a look in every blogger’s best friend, Wikipedia. According to that vast treasure trove of interesting (and occasionally accurate) information, this particular worldview derives [...]

This concludes the series of posts inspired by one of Sid’s tweets. He said that “The Bible is anti-human sexuality outside a very narrowly prescribed range.” You should really check out the guest bloggers’ sites. This has been great.

After hearing someone on NPR say that everyone they know is good, I tweeted the following question, “Would you say “Everyone I know is good.”? Why or why not?”.
To which I had some replies:
