  9. How does an atheist deal with death?

    RedBait replied to jen42's topic in Hospice, Palliative

    Lee Strobel is a self described "former spiritual skeptic." This is different from an atheist. My problem with discussions like Mr Strobel's is: it is necessary to first believe in order to be...

    RedBait replied to Lauren3249's topic in General Nursing

    Remember, all work is important work...if the electrician doesn't take the job seriously, your building burns down! If the plumber does sloppy work, you flush the toilet and it ends up in the walls...
