		<description>I agree with Deon. I learn a lot from Yahoo, YouTube, Wikipedia and other great sources. I just wish being on computers all day could be my job :)

		<description>Sometimes, I need to just read because too much television warps my brain. Plus mostly what you read in books is more educational than movies and t.v. shows. right? Anyways, Reading is very healthy and I love it.

		<description>The only reply to the rather tepid claim that “Not all Catholics are bad”, or, “Not all Catholics abuse children” is yes, that is true. The same argument applies to Muslims, Scientologists, astrologers, homeopaths, chess players, Secular Humanists, Marxists, Julius Malema supporters, people with tattoos and jazz lovers. 

Policies, however, that both officially and in practice deliberately discourage or impede the investigation of child abuse or increase the chances of individuals contracting life threatening diseases are bad. In fact, they are not just bad, they are despicable (I´d love to say diabolical but that would just be evil). 

Perhaps we should ask our not-all-catholics-are-bad counterparts to examine the tradeoff they are receiving for their loyalty to an institution that is clearly guilty of such a charge.</description>

		<description>She reached down and took him in one hand and there was enough left over for her to take him into her mouth and let her tongue flick over the tip and shaft enthusiastically, sucking and licking in turn as she sought to keep him erect and stop him from coming just yet. 
She wanted him inside her. She so wanted his big, thrusting hips to drive himself deep inside her now… she pushed his shoulders back onto the deck and swung her legs astride him, lowering herself over him. Slowly, gently and making small mewing noises she took all of him inside her. Then she began to ride him, slowly at first, then more and more rhythmically and then faster and faster as she rushed him to beat her to it,
Her heat began to thunder in her ears as she realised she was getting very close and suddenly, almost as if she did not expect it, they were writhing together, groaning and moaning in pleasure as they both thundered into orgasm together. Her back arched right back and then she fell onto his chest and lay there panting quietly. She was purring.
He encircled her in his arms and held her gently as they cooled in the morning sunshine… and she looked down and saw that it would not be too long before they could start this all over again. And she smiled.</description>

		<description>The day started out slowly, the sun rose over the sea in the east, reflecting wildly on the water briefly, before rising into the clear blue morning sky. It was early, summer, and there was hardly a breath of wind as she stood on the deck of the yacht looking out at the sunrise, while she sipped on the coffee in a mug she held with both hands… 
The bay was remote where the yacht rode gently in the swell. Riding up and down slowly with the rising and falling of the waves. No other human being was around for miles, or so the travel brochure had promised them. so she was quite comfortable standing there in a long long-sleeved T-shirt of her man, his smell still on it from their day the day before.
She put the mug down on a whim, and stepped quickly out of the shirt exposing her bronzed body once more to the sun. There were no tan lines, she like tanning naked. Made sense to her. Her long blonde hair fluttered gently over her full breasts in the breeze off the sea, and she stepped to the edge of the deck and dived headlong into the water.
She swam lazily around the boat taking it slowly and appreciating the sensuous feeling the water made as it passed around her body.
She felt a slight tingle as she remembered the night they had arrived on the yacht and sailed the yacht together to this bay. And she suddenly had a tingling heat pass through her body, in spite of the cool morning water she was swimming in.
She got around the yacht and reached up and grabbed the ladder, pulling herself back on deck, dripping water all over the deck. Without a thought she lay down on the towel that was spread on the roof of the wheel house and stretched out her body to get every bit of it exposed to the sun.
Her thoughts went back to the night they arrived, and she began to rub her hands all over her stomach and up over her breast. Her nipple leaping to an erect position, almost at command. Her other hand went down and began to play with her hair and she slipped a finger in between her legs… then a second. She wasn’t aware that her man was watching her, and he was naked too, and he was aroused.
He stood quietly watching her, holding himself in his hand and gently rubbing himself, smiling quietly.
She licked her fingers and slipped them inside herself and with her thumb began to rub her clit, and as she did that she began to simultaneously roll her nipple on her left breast with the other hand. Her eyes were slightly closed, and almost rolled back, in her ecstasy. She was enjoying this.
Suddenly, she felt a bearded mouth on her other breast as her man had now stepped forward, knelt quietly down and now began sucking her breast. 
Her hand went round behind his head and pulled his hair and as she did that his head came up and she kissed him on the lips, sucking the ripe lips into her mouth and  flicking out her tongue, deep into his mouth.
He lay down next to her and his hands were free, one went to help the seemingly overworked hand at her crotch and suddenly she was insanely wet. Her back arched up and forced her hips into his hand almost as if it wanted to tell it to get busy. She turned on her side and lifted her knee and freed up the space for him to work, and he did it SOOO well. Using his thumb he pushed her mons gently up towards her navel, and her clit popped out, ready for his proud attention. And he delivered… rubbing and flicking it, and bringing it to attention. She reached into his face with hers and kissed him again, sucking his lips and licking his mouth hungrily.</description>

		<title>Comment on Why Religion should be opposed by Deon Barnard</title>

		<description>Hi Stacey,

There a few things here…

1.       It’s almost impossible to say anything critical about religion without sounding angry or “militant” as I’ve often been accused of by others. People are just not used to hearing religion being spoken of in a bad light when in their minds religion is a pink and fluffy organization that helps poor people and widows…

2.       Religion is NOT a pink and fluffy organization that helps poor people and widows. Certainly there are individuals both in and out of religion with a humanistic bent (which is great for the world), but that’s not how religion is set up. Religion is at its core anti reason, anti-science, anti-female, anti-sex and many other things which make it more of a disease for humanity than a help.

3.       My fight is with the system, and not the people. I have Christian friends who are great and I love them. But sometimes in the fight against the system certain leaders and prominent figures will be targeted for ridicule because of their role in upholding and furthering the cause of religious craziness.

4.       People like yourself who have not had a strong religious indoctrination won’t necessarily have the same distaste for religion because they haven’t seen the carnage first hand. Although I know many lifelong Atheists who are as passionate as I am about closing down the religious structures and moving toward a more reasonable, thoughtful, peaceful, secular world.

Thanks for reading my blog. I hope you listen to the podcast too (Primordial Soup).

I’m sure we’ll chat again.

		<description>Hi Deon,

Just wanted to say thanks for the interesting read. Your blogs on stopping religions were fascinating. I don’t have a dying urge to argue/agree/disgree with anything you have written (I read purely for the enjoyment of seeing other peoples perspectives)

As you seem to be a man that is great in expressing himself I was hoping you could help me out with something I have been thinking about. Some of my friends as well as people I have met in passing who come from the same background as yourself, strict religious upbringing, that are now very opposed to religions, why is that they are so completely against religion? Its like comparing ex smokers who whine more about smokers that people who never smoked at all?
I was not brought up religious and was rather left to try them all and pick what appealed to me. I just find it interesting that they are so much more aggressive/passionate in being anti religion than those that have not been through the apparently traumatic ordeal of church.

Anyway your thoughts would be appreciated.</description>

		<description>Well that&#039;s one way of taking a look at things. It is good to have ones thoughts shaken up now and again so that you can re-examine your personal bias and habits in thinking. I might not go along with everything, but I value your personal insight.</description>
