I’ve been inspired by a friend, and there’s going to be a bit more behind this post than will immediately be apparent (in the form of a video/audio interview, but I won’t say any more than that), but I’ve been thinking a lot lately about the phenomenon of ‘cancel culture’. On one level, I fully […]
The title is perhaps the most eloquent means of conveying the message of this post. There is a tendency to believe that criticism of one’s arguments or behaviour, or criticism of a philosophy/faith, somehow translates into hatred of that person/belief/argument. I’ve encountered this kind of argument on many occasions, regarding various subjects, but on this […]
At the risk of ‘poking the bear’ I’m giving serious thought to addressing several recent science vs faith posts I’ve seen online. It’s highly doubtful I’d be able to convince the author to see sense, so why would I even make the attempt? Nonetheless I’m tempted anyway.
So I’m shamelessly ripping off an excellent idea from Paul over at The Captain’s Speech, He’s taken a look at what he regards as the major events from his blog over the years, so I thought I’d do the same. 1. Eye-opening Discussions This one goes back a ways, to the 2nd October 2014, when […]
I was going to open this post with a statement that I don’t tend to get too political on this site, but then I laughed internally, for I actually do get quite political on this site. I guess, perhaps, the framework of how and why is a little different this time. I’ll be cross-posting this […]
By now, I’ve found myself enjoying the presence and arguments of two… I don’t know, deeply conservative, devoutly religious sparring partners? Is that the right term? I don’t know, though it certainly fits. In this instance, the category is once again that of women’s rights and the desired interference of the religious right. The specifics […]
Not for the first time, Paul Williams of Blogging Theology has put forward the notion that men and women need to be ‘partitioned‘ in order to improve society. The pretext for this argument (this time around) concerns cases of assault upon women at festivals. One in three women have reported being sexually harassed at these […]
Recently David of Theology Archaeology has been publishing a few more articles to Hub Pages. I’ll give him this – he can churn out a lot of material! The one of particular interest to me at the moment is this one. I’ll be quoting it, as I go through it. Nothing is this world is […]
I’m quite happy to engage in robust conversation with various people across various fields. I’ve done so with MGTOWs and MRAs. I’ve done so with gatekeeping Star Trek fans. I’ve done so with people of various conservative religious beliefs. Gun control, sports, science, you name it, I’ve gotten stuck in. In the course of doing […]
I dare say this move will enrage certain quarters on Blogging Theology, given how much they were stung by remarks that weren’t even aimed directly at them before, but given the on-going desire by certain parties on that site to continue and perpetuate misleading arguments and drag irrelevancies into discussions, I feel I have no […]
Breached the 70K mark on my wip! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
This is just sheer absolute, exquisite beauty.
I have eaten too much pizza.
I don't think it's up to you to decide what's best for women, nor whether or not men can find them attractive...
What’s the most fun way to exercise? I know of a fun way to burn off calories, but I’ll not be sharing the details here! I don’t know if I could call any of the standard means of seeking fitness ‘fun’. I’ve been doing regular sit-ups since the start of April, interspersed with a few […]
