New discovery

A new (to me) blog by a former Christian Scientist has come to my attention. I believe it was started in September, 2015. I’ve only read a couple of posts so far, but I like it! I think you will too.

• Incredibly True Stories of Christian Science Healing

Go Forth, Brave Turtle!

I don’t mean to denigrate turtles; I happen to think they’re wonderful creatures, and I encounter many of them by the lakes here where I live, and like all animals, I think they’re beautiful. However, they do exhibit a well-known behaviour when frightened that is analogous to how Christian Scientists sometimes act when they speak or write publicly about Christian Science, and are challenged or questioned on what they say. So, I denigrate them for metaphorical purposes only.
