The next post I’m writing will quite possibly turn into a series. I need to let some of the words and ideas mature in my head, maybe rewrite it once or twice. So I’m leaving you with this for the time being.
Real Live Preacher wrote a post a couple of weeks ago, titled So you [...]

January 28th, 2008 · 9 Comments
My favourite Christian blogger is still Real Live Preacher. His input (general posts on his blog, as well as the odd email) helped me significantly on my journey last year. If you’d like to see some of the posts of his I really like, see RLP on Indoctrination and Some RLP Highlights. I’m not sure [...]

Islam vs Christianity (Satire)
August 12th, 2007 · 3 Comments

Some RLP Highlights
July 6th, 2007 · 2 Comments
Four highlights from Real Live Preacher:
Your Uncle’s Third Nipple – RLP’s contribution to the “Creationism versus Evolution” absurdity
A New Abraham and a New Earth – tolerance, “HEY RELIGIOUS GUYS!”… get with the program! Hehe. Remains one of my favourites.
The Slippery Slope – everyone lives on a slippery slope of some sorts?
Cold Calling – this one [...]

Seeing Satire in Savage Chickens: Health Plan
May 21st, 2007 · 4 Comments
Savage Chickens doesn’t usually seem particularly deep, in my experience. Maybe this wasn’t meant as particularly deep either. Art is like that though: you get to see things in it that weren’t necessarily explicitly meant by the author. Then again, maybe there is always something deep, and it’s purely my experience that is lacking? [...]
