Thought of the Day
From now on I'm just going to call coffee "proof of God." "You want some proof of God? I just brewed some." "Do you take sugar in your proof of God?" Etc. After all, coffee is the grounds of bean.

Thought of the Day
The first moment after God banged the universe into existence was the first moment God existed. Not because God began to exist, but because moments began to exist.

Thought of the Day
Some people defend mentioning God on our currency and in the pledge of allegiance because they are merely historical references to our country's Christian foundation, and not an endorsement of a religious position. I'm not so sure. I would rather have such things banned because they mean something than allowed because they don't.

Thought of the Day
In ancient Greece, Diogenes would urinate in public in order to prove that human beings are merely animals. But animals don't urinate in public in order to make a point.

Thought of the Day
In my experience over 90% of the arguments and criticisms made against Christianity can be answered with, "Yeah, I don't believe in a God like that either."

I've never understood the expression "the exception that proves the rule." Exceptions disprove rules.

Thought of the Day
If person A has a moral obligation to help person B, it does not mean that B has a moral right to A's help. If I have a moral obligation to give money to someone, that person doesn't have a moral right to take my money, whether I offer it to them or not.

Three things about heaven:
The popcorn will taste as good as it smells.
The coffee will taste as good as it smells.
The pizza will taste as good as it always has.
