Secrets, Religion, Science!
Today we have a sweet and savory mixed bag of websites - secrets, religion and science! Here is 5 faves from metalhead39 who resides in California. Enjoy!
5. PostSecret
everyday people submit their deepest secrets to the artist/blogger on a postcard — the most creative and profound of those get posted every Sat night
4. Jesus’ General
weekdays, it’s dark comedy/satire/commentary on religion, sexuality and politics. weekends, the guest bloggers post book reviews and miscellaneous
3. A Pagan’s Blog
a mix of the political and spiritual from a Pagan’s point of view
2. Pharyngula
biology with big dollops of political and theocratic criticism from a scientist’s point of view
1. Amritapuri.org
one of the 10 most amazing people alive today. Spiritual leader of the Hindu faith, an ambassador for Hinduism to the rest of the world as well as a dedicated humanitarian. I visit when I’m feeling run down and it’s not Sunday.

I also liked the Pharyngula site - I can tell this 5 faves feature is going to suck up waaay too much of my time!

LOL, I was checking out the sites, glanced over site five, read the caption, glaced back again & wondered for a moment why the Hindu would have a site called armpit? Armpit? But no, it was my eyes, only picking up that letter combo in a glance.

Every Sunday morning I curl up with my morning coffee and open my browser to PostSecrets. It’s my favorite site! I happened upon it not long after it made itself a web presence and I’ve been hooked ever since. Interestingly, I submitted this site as one of my fav 5’s as well! The books are lovely and make great gifts. Browse around the books store and flip through the copies. If you’re lucky, you’ll stumble upon a “secret” someone has left in one of the PostSecret books.

Great choices. I am familiar with the Pharyngula site which I like for many reasons, not the least of which if one digs around in there one comes across my daughter’s work.
I’m being shamelessly proud, I’m afraid. But it is Mother’s Day so I’m indulging myself.
