Christian Blogs

My Feeds

I subscribe to quite a few blogs; some technical, some webcomics, most atheist-based. However I do subscribe to a few Christian blogs for various reasons:

Atheist Central” by Ray Comfort

Ray Comfort’s blog is a great place if you want to have a laugh, or simply want to watch a load of bigoted hatred emerge out of the “love” theists have for our souls. Whether he is busy redefining science or claiming that light is invisible, Ray Comfort always manages to bring a smile to the face of any atheist. Heck, he even has his own bunch of debunkers.

Stuff Christians Like by Prodigal John

This blog is rather atheist-friendly since atheists aren’t actually mentioned, so it is a nice look into the minds of Christians when they aren’t all riled up over our “atheist faith”.

Debunking Atheists by Dan

Debunking Atheists has a special place not only in my feed reader but also in my blog’s blogroll because the author challenged me to put him there after he wrote answers to the Atheist Thirteen for me. Dan (the author in question) has a current series trying to “Debunk Evolution” which is hilarious to read, mainly because he doesn’t understand the fundamentals of the science and simply repeats well-known lies.

Uncommon Descent by William Dembski (originally)

A blog about Intelligent Design, which of course spouts the same rubbish and regurgitated debunked “facts” they’ve been talking about for years. The site logo is still the I.D mascot, the bacterial flagellum, which of course has various explanations for its existence through Evolutionary theory. Still, it’s great fun to read on all the “controversy” surrounding these issues.

So what Christian blogs do you peruse? Why do you do it? Do you actively take part in discussions or just sit in the sidelines?

    I have a lot of Christian blogs on my feed, but I’d have to say my favourite two are Things Christians Like (which you mentioned) and Jesus goes to Disney World. The latter is written by a priest and originated by his attempt to connect biblical stories to popular culture. I disagree with him on a lot (mainly his pro-life stance) but it’s still a good read.

    I don’t keep any Christian blogs on my feed reader but I do peruse a few blogs of Christians who post on my own blog, and those who are on Wordpress and have tagged posts with atheism. Honestly, that’s what I usually do, just wait for some Christian to post something ridiculous with a secular tag and then I’ll sweep in and try to help set them straight. Seems to be the norm on Wordpress blogs.

    “Whether he is busy redefining science or claiming that light is invisible, Ray Comfort always manages to bring a smile to the face of any atheist.”

    Shame I can’t find that post, otherwise I would have pointed out to that oh so smart atheist that light is the only thing which is visible. You think you can see that chair standing in the corner? Wrong. The only thing you can see is the light it is reflecting. That is what the sensors at the back of your eye are reacting to; not the chair.

    Ray Comfort’s post is here: http://raycomfortfood.blogspot.com/2008/06/thank-god-for-science.html

    He changed the wording after he got called out on the bullshit science he was preaching, but the current wording “the essence of white light is invisible” is still completely wrong.

    Sometimes it’s hard to decide which is the more important rule; not to make fun of the mentally handicapped, or to tell the truth.

    There is no God but Allah, Muhammad is Allah’s Messenger

    I bear witness that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, the One, without any partner. And I bear witness that Muhammad is His Messenger.

    Islam is to testify that there is no god but Allah and Muhammad is the messenger of Allah, to perform the prayers (salath), to pay the charity (zakat), to fast in Ramadhan, and to make the pilgrimage to the House if you are able to do so

    Islam teaches us that this life is a life of worship. We are placed on this earth in order to worship Allah and obey His command. During this earthly life we are subjected to a series of trials. We have the option of enduring these trials and conforming to certain laws, and our reward will be great in the next life, or we may decline to endure these trials and choose to not conform to the law, then we will be made to regret it in the next life.

    Each person will be solely and completely responsible for their own final reward. Allah has guided us to make this life a better, safer, and more tolerable one for us. If we elect to conform to them then we will see the result in this life even before moving on to the next.

    So do believe in Allah, do believe in His angels, do believe in His Books (Scriptures), do believe in His Messengers, do believe in the Day of Judgment and do believe in the Divine Decree (Divine fate) whether good or evil

    Allah created us, and we know that we should only worship Him. This is an instinct Allah has created us with. He did not just leave us, rather He sent prophets for us. These prophets had miracles as proof. The miracle for us today is the Quran. There is no other religion that worships only Allah, and believes in Him as totally perfect, and believes in all of His prophets, and scriptures

    May Allah enlighten you…

    Thanks for the links. Haven’t laughed this hard in years.

    Interesting stuff, youve made me think today

    I've not only read a couple of those blogs, Uncommon Descent and “Atheist Central” by Ray Comfort, I've been sneakily "banned" from posting comments on them. If I try to post, nothing ever shows.

    Anyone else have that happen to them? If so, drop a comment on my blog, here:

    I'm collecting information on what you have to post to get booted off.

    I'd really like to ask Ray a few questions. Any idea on how I could?

    I don't like this blog. In my opinion, it's all wrong. So my first and last post. Pushing on to something substantive without the delusion and arrogance of atheism.

    Wow. What a waste of a comment. To think someone could have written something constructive in that space…
