The Roman Catholic Residue

Filed under Religion on January 29th, 2009

An integral part of our vacations had always been visiting architectural and cultural buildings. I cannot remember a single summer holiday in which we just vacationed and relaxed. The usual suspects always came up in our agenda: musea, historical cities, landscapes of importance, palaces, castles and châteaux, and of course, churches. Now, I wasn’t brought [...]

Questions for the Children of God

Filed under Religion on September 25th, 2008

Those out there claiming to be “the true Children of God” are in the witness box today. It’s not fair to only question God, when many of my issues are related to what his faithful followers, you, are doing on a day-to-day basis.

Biblical Quotes Gone Wild

Filed under Religion on July 27th, 2008

I know people who read the Bible everyday, trying to find spirituality, encouragement, knowledge — or something similar. Like the following from 1 John 4:9-10: “We love Him because He first loved us.” Ah, isn’t that sweet and inspirational. Yet, I have no fucking idea what to do with it. Just because someone loves you, [...]
