Cfreak's Anti Blog

I'm starting with evolution because this one bugs me the most. Back when I was in high school a friend of mine and I sat in biology class. Like biology classes across the country have been for many years we were told to open our books and prepare to learn the theory of evolution. Immediatly I went numb ... the theory of how ameobas became fish and fish turned to apes, and apes turned to into people. My friend and I (being somewhat disruptive 10th graders already) decided to make this an issue. We said in front of the class that evolution was a conspiracy made up by people out to destroy Christianity! We also deliberately failed several papers because we refused to put the demon answers in writing ... either that or it was a good excuse not to do our homework. At any rate its a miracle I passed at all. When I got to college, however ( HSU represent!), I changed my perspective. HSU is a Baptist college and everyone is required to take two semesters of Bible class. Dr. McGraw (and y

I hate the word "blog". I hate it and all of its partners in crime: "blogsphere", "blogger", "photoblog", "iblog", "blogtastic" .... its an unbearable "blogsoup". I could write a whole blog on why I hate the word but that would probably get boring and just as cliche'. No, instead I'll be posting all my other rants. Yes I'm going to be just like the other 40 bazillion whiny blogs out there. So enjoy! :)
