Blasphemous Blogging: The Blog of Edwin Kagin

Blasphemy is the crime of making fun of ridiculous beliefs others hold sacred. This blog is about satire, truth, inquiry, and critical thinking. It is about enjoying life before death. It is about how some try to control many through their notions about a make believe supernatural world and imaginary rewards and punishments after death. This blog says that blasphemy is a good thing, a healthy thing, and a good antidote to harmful superstition. This blog is about freedom. Edwin.

Being the Beginning of Blasphemeous Blogging.

May 29, 2005.

This blog might never have been created had not my brilliant and beautiful daughter decided to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro.

But she did so decide, and thus ventured to visit her presumptive sire (your blogger) for the purpose, inter alia, of borrowing from same some of the finest outdoor gear in the world. Upon being equipped with down sleeping bag, Filson duffel bag, and other goodies accumulated from diverse adventures yet to be reported, none of which involved an activity as romantic as climbing Kilimanjaro, she decided I had lived long enough without a blog in time and, utilizing technology and skills which did not exist when I was her age, assisted in the creation of this electoric impossibility.

So, with some fear of the unknown, the Edwinian Blog Adventure is hereby offically launched.

Edwin.
