A Sign of the Times

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on March 27, 2009 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 27, 2009

I’ve had repeated problems with who i call Door Christians. I resorted to putting a sign on my door to fend them off.But my previous sign was not enough to deter these religious zealots who knock and want to share their myths with me. Since I often sleep during the day, this is usually cause for great irritation. I had to go to a sign that was more caustic. {it’s really harsh, but it still makes me laugh}.

Propaganda: No Intelligence Allowed

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on March 20, 2009 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 20, 2009

I just watched the documentary by Ben Stein “Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed” I must say the title is prophetic toward content. There was certainly no intelligence to be found in the slant of this “documentary.” This is essentially another example of right-wing religious propaganda that likes to masquerade as fact. It is at once crucial that readers understand the primary flaw in any argument made by creationists or I.D. advocates: creationism cannot be given equal time as science, since it does not fit the description of science, nor does it hold up to scientific scrutiny. That said, I’ll take a … Continue reading →

Movie Review: The Descent

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on March 10, 2009 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 10, 2009

The basic premise is that a group of women go spelunking, and find themselves in grave danger (or, in danger of a grave) from a cave-in, followed by the presence of mysterious subterranean creatures who seek to make a meal of them. This was not what I would deem a “b” movie, though it might appear to be so at first glance. It is within the horror genre, but leaning heavily toward thriller/suspense, as any gore or violence is not merely gratuitous but integral to the plot. There are spoilers in this review, so if you don’t want to know … Continue reading →

Pastor was Moved in Mysterious Ways

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on March 9, 2009 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 7, 2013

Dead Reverend’s Rubber Fetish Autopsy: Pastor found in wet suits after autoerotic mishap OCTOBER 8–An Alabama minister who died in June of “accidental mechanical asphyxia” was found hogtied and wearing two complete wet suits, including a face mask, diving gloves and slippers, rubberized underwear, and a head mask, according to an autopsy report. Investigators determined that Rev. Gary Aldridge’s death was not caused by foul play and that the 51-year-old pastor of Montgomery’s Thorington Road Baptist Church was alone in his home at the time he died (while apparently in the midst of some autoerotic undertaking). While the Montgomery Advertiser, … Continue reading →

Ukrainian in the Lion’s Den

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on March 9, 2009 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 9, 2009

“A man shouting “God will save me if he exists”, lowered himself by a rope into the big cats’ enclosure in Kiev zoo, Ukraine, on Sunday, 4 June, when the zoo was packed with visitors. He then took his shoes off and went up to the lions. A lioness knocked him down and severed his carotid artery, killing him instantly. Lions and tigers are kept in an “animal island” protected by thick concrete blocks. “* Another example of why religious zealotry and the BIBLE can be dangerous. Remember “Daniel in the Lion’s Den”? ————————* http://www.forteantimes.com/strangedays/strangedeaths/379/an_act_of_faith.html

God Continues His Preacher Killing Spree

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on March 9, 2009 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 8, 2013

http://www.wsmv.com/news/15642032/detail.html A preacher, killed by a goat. that’s right. Although, in the text of the story, we learn that probably the 40 pound, normally docile goat could not have killed this big strapping man. More likely, the guy had a heart attack after he got tangled in the rope and fell. But they killed the goat, just to be sure. So….god is not above sending a goat to do an assassin’s job. Pastor’s six family members killed by accident in Kerala http://salemvoice.org/svmnews286.html Can anyone say “The Book of Job”?

The Religious Have Less Brain Activity

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on March 9, 2009 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 9, 2009

fromhttp://www.physorg.com/news155404273.html Researchers find brain differences between believers and non-believers Believing in God can help block anxiety and minimize stress, according to new University of Toronto research that shows distinct brain differences between believers and non-believers. In two studies led by Assistant Psychology Professor Michael Inzlicht, participants performed a Stroop task – a well-known test of cognitive control – while hooked up to electrodes that measured their brain activity. Compared to non-believers, the religious participants showed significantly less activity in the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), a portion of the brain that helps modify behavior by signaling when attention and control are … Continue reading →

Is God Pissed with Christians?

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on March 9, 2009 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 9, 2009

I’m sensing a trend, here. My previous post was about god electrocuting a preacher in the baptismal. Now, he’s allowing someone to gun down the pastor? Is god turning on his PEOPLE? Pastor gunned down in Illinois church Posted: 02:38 PM ET (CNN) — The pastor of a Maryville, Illinois, church was shot to death during a service Sunday in front of horrified parishoners who then tackled the gunman, state police said. Fred Winters, the pastor of the First Baptist Church, was shot and killed during the 8 a.m. service, while his attacker and two parishoners suffered knife wounds, Illinois … Continue reading →

God Still Kills His Own

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on March 9, 2009 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 9, 2009

Consider this gem. Texas preacher killed by baptism A pastor was electrocuted during a baptism in Waco, Texas, after grabbing a microphone while partially submerged. [Another candidate for the Darwin Award] Rev Kyle Lake, 33, was standing in a small pool used for baptisms at the University Baptist Church when he was electrocuted on Sunday morning. [If god is willing to send his own son into a horrible death by crucifixion, why would he care about some preacher from Waco?] Rev Lake reached out to adjust a nearby microphone, which produced an electric shock, said church pastor Ben Dudley. [Dudley … Continue reading →

Diction Deja Vu

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on March 8, 2009 by Kelli Jae BaeliNovember 27, 2011

Even though I tend to have a Swiss cheese memory, there are times when at least I recreate something almost verbatim, without even realizing I have done it before. (Which comes in handy if I do something stupid and delete some writing accidentally). For example, in doing an edit on As You Were, I came to this one sentence: She breathed cautiously at first, –and felt it needed a little more zap, so I added: …like some wayward astronaut stepping from the ship on some unfamiliar planet. …and then i read the next sentence that was already there…and saw: Then … Continue reading →

Quotes from Kelli Jae Baeli

"Am I too much for the world, or is the world too much for me?"

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)

They "wake up" together in the spring and "go to sleep" together in the autumn.🌳

It is quite telling - women don’t appear to be the ones who are the “emotional” gender.
