Dogma Debate: The Bible
http://davidsmalley.blogspot.com/2010/03/bible.html
Mar 5, 2010. The breakdown of Christianity for me, starts with the Bible. I think people spend a lot of time trying to prove teleological, cosmological, and other 'illogical' arguments in the case for "Christ." But those arguments do not point directly toward Christianity being true. The reason we even talk about "God" in the Christian sense at all, is because of the Bible. So why do you trust it as such a strong reference point? So why do you believe the Bible? I need more answers than just "faith" or "...

http://davidsmalley.blogspot.com/2009/01/top-10-reasons-im-atheist.html
Jan 11, 2009. Top 10 Reasons I'm Atheist. If we truly had one creator speaking to prophets, it would do so consistently, not contradictory as thousands of different religions have proven. Living by the means of man helping man, and realizing time on earth is not a practice run, creates an urgency of life that requires fulfilling. I asked my four-year-old daughter where the stars came from. She confidently said “. The moon made them.”. I followed by asking. 8220;Then where did the moon come from? All babi...

Dogma Debate: Why Do We Care?
http://davidsmalley.blogspot.com/2008/11/why-do-we-care.html
Nov 4, 2008. Why Do We Care? I often hear "Why do you care about fighting against religion? Why do you care if I believe or not? Why would you want me to stop believing if it makes me happy? So why do I care that you follow a religion? Well, I'm not waiting. . 13 YEAR OLD GIRL STONED TO DEATH AFTER BEING RAPED.

Dogma Debate: Michael Jackson
http://davidsmalley.blogspot.com/2009/07/michael-jackson.html
Jul 3, 2009. I have to take a moment and mention the great loss we all suffered on June 25th, 2009 when Michael Jackson passed away. I had to call in to yet another conservative “Fox News” radio show just minutes after his death to defend him. I was appalled at what I heard. I went on to say that many Atheists and agnostics live long, productive, and successful lives without any sort of god at all, and. "Trust me, there is no metaphysical presence out there killing people for not being a good Christi...

With the permission of Dr. Creamer, I've copied the text and pasted it here (unedited) to issue my own response. February 16, 2010 at 6:21. Hi Dr Creamer,. Approximately how much “air time” do you think Jesus would allow Mr. Smalley to have in order to spread his message against his Father? One more thing, I cannot believe that so-called “believing...

http://davidsmalley.blogspot.com/2009/01/child-labor.html
Jan 12, 2009. Child Labor In Religion. The ‘Christian Post’ recently announced the use of child labor to evangelize for Christ, in an effort to recruit other children online. Do you agree with this? The organzier of the online missions said this was a.

Dogma Debate: Offensive Language
http://davidsmalley.blogspot.com/2009/12/offensive-language.html
Dec 14, 2009. Our freedom of speech is guaranteed only as long as we don't infringe on the civil liberties of others. But does anyone know where that line is? Sometimes, it seems that we offend people simply by stating our case, because an immediate opposite is recognized from our statement. For example, if one were to say "I love women," that doesn't insinuate any direct opposite. However, the statement "real men love women," could be offensive to gay men, without specifically addressing them. One can m...
