  By: D. Scott Shultz
  
  (SNN) - There seems to be a misunderstanding in our society about what being brave, staying strong and having faith in God actually means.

• Blind, Stupid, Irresponsible Faith
  By D. Scott Shultz
  
  (SNN) - Brad Pitt is a moron and Angelina Jolie is an idiot. There, I said it. Some of you were thinking it. Before I am accused of being another chauvinist ass mourning the loss of a beautiful pair of breasts, let me explain.
