• Hello, I'm LKJ Slain -

    (Note, this is a reload- I do it every few weeks for newer friends as I get asked a lot of the same questions) It suddenly occured to me today that I've never actually introduced myself... Everyone sort of looks at my xanga I think and says, "WINSA!" :D And I don't think a lot of people know…
  • Can a Gentile Cook a Kosher Meal?

    Can a Gentile Cook a Kosher Meal? If a gentile has a religious Jewish friend over for dinner and he wants to prepare something special, what can be done? If a gentile chef is interested in working for religious Jewish clientele, what's the answer? Are these things permissible according to the tenet…
  • Why I Don't Go To Church. Chu…

    Why I Don't Go To Church. Church, you say? Religion is never to be taken lightly. Unless you're me. You become scarred for life after attending church just once and write a humorous piece about it. When I was a senior in high school, my friend who's Christian (though loosely followed rules), de…
  • Helping out a friend.

    I was able to save a little male spider and set him free outside at work last night♥ Not only do I love spiders generally but I figure it's the least I can do to repay them for the fact that one of their kind helped to save the life of The Holy Prophet and Abu Baker, the first Caliph of Islam.…
  • Knowing God vs. Knowing About God

    Would you agree with this statement: “Christianity isn’t a religion—it’s a relationship.” Specifically, it’s a relationship with Jesus Christ. This idea is supposed to be the characteristic that distinguishes Christianity from every other religion in the world. Bu…
  • Why Atheists Blog About Religion Part II

    This is the part 2 of this blog. It's an in-line response to the response I got from the blogger: "And what exactly 2000 civil rights do gays not have that non-gays do?" Sorry, it was over 1,000, not 2, my mistake. Around 1400 to be precise. Here is a list of over a thousand rights and benefits…

  • Hello Kitty: The Urban Legend

    We've all heard of Hello Kitty, at some point in our lives, we've owned merchandise from the character, whether it'd be pencils, pouches, wallets, lunch boxes, book bags, etc. I've always liked Hello Kitty, even now in my young adult age. How can you not like such an adorable character that o…
  • Why Atheists Blog About Religion.

    I just read a blog someone (who claims to have been an atheist) wrote about how stunned they are that atheists post about religion so much, comparing it to spending an inordinate amount of time arguing with people who believe in UFOs. This was my response: I promise I will start posting as many bl…
  • Then Abigail made haste (complacency & devotion)

    A few days ago (see here), I blogged on an excerpt from Andrew Fuller's sermon "The Instances, the Evil Nature, and the Dangerous Tendency of Delay, in the Concerns of Religion." Fuller's Bible text was Haggai 1:2 (KJV) "Thus speaketh the Lord of hosts, saying, This people say, The time is not co…
