People still go crazy about Jesus these days and why shouldn't they, he was badass - big time. However, I think many people actually forget just what he was all about and don't adjust his te...
The mind is simply fascinating. It is the one thing that directs our thoughts, controls our decision making process, creates who we are and does so much more. But what is our mind? Is it jus...
It's kinda weird, why are we only conscious of this life that is happening right now? Why aren't we living in a past life or even a future life right this second? Or even stranger, are we li...
The more research I do about life, God and religion the more I come to the following conclusion about atheists and myself: I agree with pretty much everything atheists say except their concl...
As much as I love life, growth and everything about existence sometimes the thought of always existing and never dying off just seems so weird. I mean, to think that we will never really die...
Let me first say that I do in fact study the Bible and agree with the teachings it presents. What I don't get, however, is why people won't look at anything outside of the Bible for guidance...
I have no clue, however, while reading through The Kolbrin Bible (yes a Bible outside of The Bible (careful Christians)) I came across a great quote by none other than my hero Jesus...

About a year or so back I was really in search of the truth and looking for reasons why God existed, if he existed and how he existed. I just wanted to really understand if God was real and ...

Abortion is an extremely heated topic and I really don't know why, well actually I do. I find it strange how people try to argue one way or the other on it. To me this is like saying, is it ...
