People sometimes ask me if I’m religious. There’s an easy dodge to that one: “I think I’m more spiritual than religious.” This is a good answer because people don’t usually want that explained to them, since it might cause them to have to argue about metaphysics., and not their closely-held religious beliefs.. Also, people occasionallyContinue reading “Let Me Take you Higher (to a Higher Power)”

Oh, sure, I still twitch when I see a priest collar or a nun,Continue reading “…What?”
Religion? Hell, No!
Do you practice religion? My title is a sarcastic one. It’s too bad this prompt came up now, since last week I wrote a post called “The Armor of Catholicism,” where I discussed how the religion of my childhood doesn’t fit any more. Do I follow moral principles of good behavior? Yes, and I thinkContinue reading “Religion? Hell, No!”
