Rah, rah, Deepak Choprah, “King of Woo Woo” for taking on Skeptic Michael Shermer (former fundamentalist Christian) now the “King of Pooh Pooh”. Here’s the very latest volley in the ongoing war between religion and science…(a useless war since they actually coexist and overlap, ya know!)

This is really intriguing stuff — in ten years we will not stare at glowing screens on our computers or iPods or whatever because special glasses will beam the information/screen/images directly onto our retinas. It’ll be just like Star Trek where you see holographic worlds and it feels like you’re really living it. In just [...]

The infamous arrest of the Knights Templar was carried out on Friday the 13th of October, 1307.

Not all religion should be thrown out with the bath water. I inserted little comments as I read along, mostly because the author kept [...]
What a riot this YouTube video is! When they get to the clerical vestments part, oh man is that funny. Some of the vestments blink and light up like Vegas, plus the body language of the “fashion models” is so priceless.
