Stormbringer's Thunder

Buona sera.  It's been a while since I talked about my buddy Neil. Since he had some circumstances that fit in with what I've been talking about off and on the past few months, he's in the spotlight. Wave to the nice people, Neil. I'm telling your story. At the Big Soulless Corporation where he works, there was a kind of "meet and greet" for new employees. One of the higher-level managers facilitated the thing, made announcements, had people introduce themselves and so on. Some of the questions he asked made Neil a bit introspective. He went up to that manager later, after most of the crowd had dispersed, and said that he had changed a great deal over the past few years. "In what ways?", the manager asked. Neil mentioned that he liked reading apologetics and logic things (including mine). When asked, "What the hell is apologetics?", Neil told him that it was the defense and presentation of the Bible and Christian faith. "Oh

Buona sera. On a personal experience, subjective perspective, it is easy to see that atheism is irrational. Just look at what it does to people: Vituperative trolling on the Internet, often under multiple assumed names Fundamentalist jihad replaces rational thought, where hatred of Christians is more important than the logic that they claim to appreciate Basic lack of civility — this makes me wonder if the hate-consumed angry atheists are unemployable, as they spend an inordinate amount of time attacking people on the Internet Digging into philosophical mires where they insist that they are right despite how silly they look; they are almost never wrong, especially if it means that a Christian is right about something. Essentially, the atheist insists, "I'm right, you're wrong because I said so!" They're cute when illogical. Using fundamentally flawed "evidence" for evolution, no matter how outdated, disproved and just plain bad But enough of my o

Buon giorno. Although it shouldn't, it amazes me when atheists will pretend that not only are Christians lying about being harassed and persecuted (despite frequent documentation in this Weblog and in other places), then they try to act like they are the victims! I strongly suspect that any "discrimination" against atheists are because of their vituperative personalities (and doing stupid things, like the atheist that applied for a job with a church group) rather than the simple fact that they are atheists. None so blind as those who will not see, huh, Lela? But I digress. DefendChristians.Org solicited the members of their online community to vote for their choice of the top ten anti-Christian acts of 2011 in the U.S. "I am always surprised at the results of our poll and this year is no exception," said Dr. Gary Cass of DefendChristians.Org. "The fact the number one and number two issues are public policy and political in nature shows Christians

Why people come to me on this, I don't know. It's not exactly a frequent topic here, and definitely not a "how to" site. Actually, they should be asking Nicky, he's even more of an expert than I am!

(Click for larger) Buon giorno. In our last exciting episode , I was going on about how excited I was to have a Kindle Touch, Wi-Fi, 6" E Ink Display e-book reader. I must repeat, however, that I have no experience with any of the other readers on the market. They're probably just fine. Another thing I should repeat is that I am getting nothing, in any way, for endorsing products and services. This is just another public service from Stormbringer Productions, capice? Speaking of public service, I wanted to make my Weblogs available for Kindle. It turns out that I cannot just give them away on there, people will have to pay to subscribe to them (just like with other Weblogs sent to Amazon). Not much, but my content is to remain free. So no, you have to read them in the usual ways. Amazon is somewhat proprietary in that they sell books primarily in their own AMZ format rather than the much more popular ePub format. It also reads PDF to some extent, and also Mobi

Buon giorno. And now for something completely different. If you're having half as much fun as I am, then I'm having twice as much fun as you! Yeah, so I stole that joke, it's still funny, innit? The title of this post is a play on words, because I am excited about my new Kindle Touch, Wi-Fi, 6" E Ink Display  reading device. It arrived on Friday, 30 December 2011 anno domini.  Which is really great, I wanted to usher in the New Year with a new gadget and new reading material. By the way, nobody is paying me for this write-up, I'm getting nothing for it. Also, these are my experiences with this particular device . There are others out there and I am sure they are adequate for their tasks. I will not put any of them down because I have had no experience with the others. "Big deal, Uncle Bob! I don't have any kind of e-book reader." Amazon will set you up with free Kindle software for your PC. There are other readers for your PC (i
