POPSThe God of Genesis "What I find disappointing about most religious beliefs is that they are a kind of statement of contempt for nature and reality. It's absurdly hubristic. It holds the myths of a few thousand years above nature's many billion-yeared journey. It says reality is inferior and less satisfying than the stories we make up."

POPSFinal Obama-McCain Polls McCain's association with President Bush was named as more damaging to him than his choice of running mate What a sad state of affairs that Sarah Palin isn't kicked to curb. She a crooked politician who believes that Adam, Eve and the dinosaurs all walked the earth during the same time period. A politician who would further deprive Americans of their liberty if she only had a chance. I hope that our education system improves under an Obama administration. The downside is that ignorance promulgated by religion will continue come Obama or McCain. What a country!

POPSWas the Sistine Ceiling a Papal Insult? look at the shape that frames God, and the flowing fabric that falls down from it do you actually see a spinal cord? "Now, what's interesting is in Kabbalah we have different kinds of wisdom," said Doliner. "The right side of the human brain in Kabbalah means wisdom chokhma." And God is appearing from the right side of the brain in that fresco. How about the fresco of Adam, Eve and the serpent in the garden? Most depictions of the Garden of Eden show an apple tree, but not on the Sistine ceiling. As in an ancient Jewish tradition, the tree is a fig tree. Blech finds it another hidden message. "I think this is one of these powerful proofs, that not only did Michelangelo know Jewish texts, but he felt it important to incorporate the ideas of these texts into some of these frescoes."

POPSBible Stories Bastardized by Anglican vicar Okay correct me if I am wrong here but if these stories are so important that an new generation needs to hear them then why must we rewrite them and turn them into some trashy dime store novel? I mean can we not tell the story the way it is? I do not mind so much when some atheist insists on rewriting or interpreting the biblical stories of our faith from their perspective but when a member of the church decides to bastardize these sacred stories then I say ENOUGH ALREADY!

POPSThings to think about " Forbidden fruit? " We have forbidden fruit? " Hey Eve ...we have forbidden fruit !!!!! " No Way!" " Yes way!" " Do not eat the fruit ! said God." " WHY " "Because, I am your Father and I said not to!" God replied, (wondering why He hadn't stopped creation after making the elephants) A few minutes later, God saw His children having an apple break and He was ticked! " Didn't I tell you not to eat the fruit? " God asked. "Uh huh," Adam replied. "Then why did you?" said the Father. "I don't know," said Eve. "She started it!" Adam said " Did not " " Did to " " Did not" Having had it with the two of them, God's punishment was that Adam and Eve should have children of their own. Thus the pattern was set and it has never changed. But there is Reassurance in this Story ! If you have persistently and lovingly tried to give your children wisdom and they haven't taken it ... don't be hard on yourself .... If God had trouble rais

POPSUsing A Child's Voice For the Sake of Bigotry The Supreme Court of New Jersey has declared that the marriage laws in the state discriminate against gays and lesbians and has ordered the legislature to change the law to make it inclusive. The anti-gay marriage forces have stooped to using the voices of children to scare people into fighting against equality for gay and lesbian citizens.
