Stuff God Hates is not your average blog. Whereas most weblogs write about technology, blogging, and kitty captions, this blog holds an auspicious status no other blogger can attain—it is written by God.
Well, not really, but hearing that last sentence does catch people’s attention. Stuff God Hates is actually a hilariously (if blasphemously) satirical corner [...]

Today, July 27, marks the 94th anniversary of the Iglesia ni Cristo (Church of Christ), one of the biggest Christian denominations in the country and arguably an incredible (some would say impossible) success story. The INC was registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 27, 1914, the same day World War One broke [...]
