No More Hall-Decking for You Guys

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on November 14, 2011 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 7, 2013

“Twelve Jews were brutally murdered, huge numbers maimed, and many Jewish women were raped. Two million rubles worth  of property was destroyed.” ~ Lawrence Kelleman I sn’t Christmas a wonderful time of year? Consider this:      Thus says the LORD, Do not learn the way of the nations, And do not be terrified by the signs of the Heavens, although the nations are terrified by them; For the customs of the peoples are delusion; Because it is wood cut from the forest, The work of the hands of a craftsman with a cutting tool. They decorate it with silver and with gold; They fasten it … Continue reading →

New Videos of Supernatural Hypocrisy

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on October 25, 2009 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 8, 2013

I have posted a widget to show my videos of my 6-volume book, Supernatural Hypocrisy: The Cognitive Dissonance of a God Cosmology on my blog for that project–the other blog is at the link. I hope it will be a more accessible way for those busy-bees among us to enjoy the content. As for the book itself, it has become such a Magnum Opus. I am considering breaking it into several volumes. But even if I do that, it is still taking more time than i like to complete. The reference section alone is up to 20 pages. So I … Continue reading →

Satan believes in God, therefore God exists

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on September 11, 2009 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 7, 2013

From Mothrust.com, the following delightful exchange. Apparently I do believe in God, I just won’t admit to it. One cocky seventeen year old fellow, Micah Sonatra, (Deven Hoffpauir, with his truly kitschy myspace) who I thought was a middle-aged lady, said that it was obvious God existed because even Lucifer believes in God – that was the crux of his argument. What the..! Stating that one imaginary character exists because another imaginary character believes it exists is like saying, “Of course Santa Clause is real, heck… even the tooth fairy knows that”. ——- — – Sonatra: You see, you have … Continue reading →

Yes There IS Something in the Water

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on August 25, 2009 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 5, 2013

Another popular meme in mainstream esoteric spirituality is the buzz about the Japanese guy who takes pictures of water crystals at a microscopic level, to prove that water responds appropriately to negative and positive input.Dr. Masuru Emoto is enjoying the proceeds from his book, The Hidden Messages in Water. Mr. Emoto’s book reveals photographs of water crystals which apparently respond to certain words positively or negatively in correlation with the nature of the words. He contends that not only are thoughts things, but that these thing-thoughts can alter the shape and design of water crystals. As if water has emotion.No … Continue reading →

The Stuttering Murderer Who Was God’s Bitch

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on August 16, 2009 by Kelli Jae BaeliMay 30, 2013

Excerpt from Supernatural Hypocrisy: The Cognitive Dissonance of a God Cosmology WHILE A PHARAOH WAS ordering all male Hebrew babies killed, the mother of Moses attempted to spare his life by placing him in a basket as a three month old infant, and sending him floating down the river, where the daughter of Egyptian royalty found him and raised him. All very dramatic, but not in the least original. In fact, this story was originally a Babylonian tale about King Sargon, rendered a very long time before Moses was born. Again, this is a borrowed myth found in the bible, … Continue reading →

The God Banana

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on August 20, 2008 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 7, 2013

On YouTube, recently, a video was posted of a Christian program called “The Way of the Master” wherein the hosts, Ray Comfort and actor, Kirk Cameron gave their argument for creationism based on the “design” of a banana. Included in their argument were points they said showed that the banana was a product of Intelligent Design, i.e., God. They said the banana is shaped to fit the human hand; that it’s color-coded so we know when it’s not ripe, when it’s overly ripe, and when it’s just ripe enough; that it has a handy pull tab, and perforations to allow … Continue reading →

Quotes from Kelli Jae Baeli

"Writers should not have romantic relationships with other writers. What they need instead, is to be involved with a character."

Politics Quotes

"People feel removed from sexism. 'I'm not a sexist, but I'm not a feminist.' They think there's this fuzzy middle ground. There's no fuzzy middle ground. You either believe that women are people or you don't. It's that simple." (Joss Whedon)

Quotes for Writers

It is crazy even to ask what creativity is. It would be just as useful to interview a caraway plant in your garden and ask: "How did you decided to be a spice." ~ Eeva Kilpi

Word of the Day

turbid TUR-bid Muddy, thick with or as if with roiled sediment. Not clear. Thick, dense, dark - used of clouds, air, fog, smoke, etc. Disturbed, confused, disordered.

Favorite Quotes

"The most unfair thing about life is the way it ends. I mean, life is tough. It takes up a lot of your time. What do you get at the end of it? A death. What's that, a bonus? I think the life cycle is all backwards. You should die first, get it out of the way. Then you live in an old age home. You get kicked out when you're too young. You get a gold watch, you go to work. You work forty years until you're young enough to enjoy your retirement. You do drugs, alcohol, you party, and you get ready for high school. You go to grade school, you become a kid, you play and have no responsibilities. You become a little baby, you go back into the womb, you spend your last 9 months floating... you finish off as an orgasm." ~ George Carlin

It is currently behind Murcowski & McMullin. Sure don't see any democrats. No policy on abortion, guns, education, etc. @DavidJollyFL knows better
