Not a parent? It doesn't matter. This blog post will look at some areas we can all work on, and I think it is essential for everyone, as we will all have been influenced by our parents/careers/friends. It can help us reflect on what is within us from our childhood - because it affects us … Continue reading Book Review: The Conscious Parent
It is very easy, when leaving a religion, to push every aspect of it away and never look at it again. Maybe this is best for some people, but I don't think it's right for everyone, and I would argue it is not right for society (at least within the UK) as a whole. Do … Continue reading The Substrate
Humanity dawned 200,000 years ago at the first (known) homo sapiens existence. 1,800,000 years before that homo Erectus was here on the earth. Homo erectus were not mindless apes wandering the savanna. They knew how to use fire in a controlled manner to clear areas. They could defiantly communicate, they could laugh, play, fight, kill, … Continue reading Staggering Time
**The final plug for this: I am currently fundraising for a new PC due to a major technical failure with my current iMac that will see it get decommissioned in the near future.

I read this a couple of years, and ago very early on in my deconversion, I found it very interesting. I wanted to come back to it again and managed to pick it up on Audible so I thought I would give it a listen. It's narrated by Mr Dawkins and his now ex-wife Lalla … Continue reading Book Review: The God Delusion
Over the last few months, as I have spoken to Christians about my deconversion. Christians who viewed me as a church leader, a teacher and in some places a friend. Telling these people that I no longer believe in the way I used to, well it has brought about a variety of responses. I wanted … Continue reading Some Responses
What would the difference be if I had never committed to Christianity to the degree that I did? It's a question that I often come back to and reflect on. I think it's important to distinguish the Christian undercurrents that affected the West's development over the last two thousand years and my own personal commitments … Continue reading A Difference…
I had heard a lot about Bart D. Ehrman before I picked this book up. As a Christian student at Bible College, here in the UK, I was advised very much against reading his work.
