That may seem like a fad to someone that has not been oppressed, but I can assure you we will not be ...

4 July…Overslept, storms etc.  

10 hours ago by blueollie

Workout notes: Last night saw the potential for strong thunderstorms to invade our area so we stayed up late. It turns out it is just somewhat rainy but the family backed out of the race, so I’ll run for an hour over hills (that’s the plan anyway). Update: 65 minute run (about 6 miles) in rain; when ...

Using 10-year-old to promote delusional agenda  

1 day ago by Stardust

Instead of explaining this dream rationally to this child, the parent is using the child’s own nightmare to reinforce delusional religious beliefs. The father in this video is saying that Jesus Christ showed a vision of hell to his 10-year old son. Kids are very impressionable and I have to wonder h ...

Today on his blog, he commented: “In Cognitive Hypnotherapy we teach that the brain uses what we call The Algorithms of the Mind (TAOTM) to deduce meaning from information our senses harvest from the environment. It s ...

Number 13  

2 days ago by jmkirk

The superstition surrounding the number 13 has always baffled me. Is there some reason it’s considered unlucky? Is it hard to share out cookies between two people if there are 13 of them? Whatever the reason is, I think the air of unluckiness it has was actually lucky for me! We lived in a larger to ...

Tackling superstition  

2 days ago by grammarking

Apologies it’s been so long, but I’m crazy busy working every day and don’t have a lot of time. I spend a lot of my space on this blog bashing religion, but I should specify that I don’t think religion is the main problem. Religion is in turn fed by irrationality and superstition, I think weeding ou ...

Superstition  

2 days ago by ransomnoble

There are several superstitions floating around our culture. They’re not always believed: “Step on a crack; break your mother’s back.” Others are more pervasive, like “knock on wood.” How many people remember where that one comes from?
