Horizon Oasis Lodge, Ordo Templi Orientis | Doubting Mark
https://doubtingmark.wordpress.com/2013/08/05/horizon-oasis-lodge-ordo-templi-orientis
An atheist's adventures in a land of faith. Horizon Oasis Lodge, Ordo Templi Orientis. August 5, 2013. Http:/ www.seattle-oto.org/. Sunday night I went to view a Gnostic Mass performed by the Horizon Oasis Lodge. Why am I mentioning this? This means that it’s not likely that I’ll be able to give them a score. But given what I think I know about their degrees, they’d probably score pretty highly on my humanist scale. So there you go. This blog is officially a Masonic Conspiracy! The space was (obviously) ...

St. Luke Parish | Doubting Mark
https://doubtingmark.wordpress.com/2013/09/09/st-luke-parish
An atheist's adventures in a land of faith. September 9, 2013. Well, it’s been a few weeks, I’ve been enjoying my summer, and a little break from posting on the blog, but now I’m back at it. Saint John’s in Seattle, in contrast, was truly a grand, magnificent, old space. Personally, I like Saint Luke better. Saint John’s makes you feel small. Saint Luke just feels like a place to hang out. It’s more comfortable. I would totally go to a church that had Cylons as saints. This Little Heart of Mine. When I t...

Review Criteria | Doubting Mark
https://doubtingmark.wordpress.com/review-criteria
An atheist's adventures in a land of faith. Following is the criteria I’m using to judge and grade various religious institutions on. There are four categories, and it’s possible to get a score of -1 to 2 in each, yielding a range of -4 to 8 for an institution. If you’re wondering why I’m doing this, read the About. What I’m looking for is religious leaders (pastors, priests, imams, rabbis, etc.) who preach something that I consider to be ethical and moral, using the following criteria:. Chill out, relax...

Sanctuary Christian Reformed Church | Doubting Mark
https://doubtingmark.wordpress.com/2014/07/13/sanctuary-christian-reformed-church
An atheist's adventures in a land of faith. Sanctuary Christian Reformed Church. July 13, 2014. Http:/ www.sanctuarycrc.org/. After a nice long hiatus, I’m back! And I’m still doubting. Downtown Greenwood is filled with shops, apartments, offices, restaurants and way more coffee shops than you’d think one neighborhood could handle. But this is Seattle, after all, and coffee is kind of what we do here. As with most churches I’ve visited, the folks there were pretty friendly, and several other people...

Epic Life Church | Doubting Mark
https://doubtingmark.wordpress.com/2013/07/28/epic-life-church
An atheist's adventures in a land of faith. July 28, 2013. Well, I certainly wouldn’t want to be responsible for a riot, so I left right away. So, taking that as my queue, and realizing that I wasn’t exactly minty fresh, I walked back home, took a shower, shaved, and made myself a little bit more presentable for the Epic Life guys. I still dressed like a tourist, however. They didn’t seem to mind. In the middle of one of the songs, the lead singer spoke a hymn that had a response part, and the audience r...

An atheist's adventures in a land of faith. Be Good To Your Fellow Human. Be Good To Yourself. Good and Timely Advice. Grn Lake 7th Day Adv. Jehovah’s Witness Ballard. 2 thoughts on “ Scorecard. Pingback: Radio Interview, Mormon Conspiracy, and a Scorecard Doubting Mark. August 6, 2015 at 11:41 pm. It would be really interesting (if you’re done with finding churches to visit), to revisit them and find out about various points you learned from the others. Those kinds of things. Are there moral absolutes?

Saint Nectarios Orthodox Church | Doubting Mark
https://doubtingmark.wordpress.com/2013/08/04/saint-nectarios-orthodox-church
An atheist's adventures in a land of faith. Saint Nectarios Orthodox Church. August 4, 2013. This morning, I got up early, put on my Sunday best, and went to church. Turns out putting the sneakers on was a good idea. Not only because I walked a little over a mile to the church, but also because you don’t sit down during an orthodox service. You stand. Well, this group left the Greek Orthodox organization, and joined Russian Orthodox for a while, but the Russian head guy switched to the modern Gregorian c...

St. Nectarios Orthodox Church kicked me out | Doubting Mark
https://doubtingmark.wordpress.com/2013/07/28/st-nectarios-orthodox-church-kicked-me-out
An atheist's adventures in a land of faith. St Nectarios Orthodox Church kicked me out. July 28, 2013. I was improperly attired. I guess if you dress like Jesus, in sandals, they get rather. I’ll give them or some other Orthodox church another try in a future week. And I will dress better. I do intend to go to another church that’s nearby later this morning. This entry was posted in Review. The Saint Germain Foundation Told Me To Buzz Off. Epic Life Church →. July 28, 2013 at 9:12 am. This is so cool!
