  • Oh, continuing down that line of thinking leads to far worse then “kinda fucked up.” If the judeo christian deity exists and is accurately described by their books than it is a total monster not worthy of praise or devotion…

    What I understand about the judeo christian god is that they are believed to have created everything that has ever been or will ever be. They have total knowledge of everything past present and future, and they “knew me” prior to them creating me, knew what kind of person I would be, and knew without doubt that I wouldn’t believe in or worship them… so they created me with full knowledge that I’ll spend eternity being tortured in hell. What kind of benevolent deity brings a creature into existence just so they can be tortured? If that’s not full blown fucked up, then I don’t know what is.






  • How about we start calling them out on all the foolish things the Bible forbids, but they ignore and do anyway such as:

    • Wearing clothing made of blended fabrics - leviticus 19:19

    • Wearing ripped or torn clothing - leviticus 10:6

    • Eating shellfish - leviticus 11:10

    • Eating pork - leviticus 11:4

    • No short hair cuts, and no shaving beards - leviticus 19:27

    • No tattoos or piercings - leviticus 19:28

    • No alcohol in church - leviticus 10:9

    • No working on the sabbath - leviticus 23:3

    • No divorce - mark 10:9

    • No wearing jewelry - timothy 2:9

    • No lying - leviticus 19:11

    • Don’t mistreat foreigners - leviticus 19:33-34

    • Buying or selling land - leviticus 25:23

    I could honestly do this all day as there are so very many things to write here, but I feel this is sufficient to demonstrate my point.

    Don’t let these people use their faith as justification to be terrible humans until they follow every word “written” by their infallible god in their hypocritical self contradictory book that none of them have actually read.


  • There have been over 18,000 different gods, goddesses, and various animals or objects worshipped by humanity since we started writing our history, and likely countless more that have been lost to time. The majority of these worshipped deities are no longer believed in, and the fact we as a species have been unable to move beyond the fairytales of omnipotent gods told during the bronze age will never cease to amaze me.

    Religion in all its various current forms is a tool of manipulation used against the masses to keep them complacent and scared. That being said, even though I tend to lean towards an atheististic view, I will concede that the possibility exists of a higher life form we may consider as a god. If such a life form does exist, it would be so far beyond our ability to comprehend that any claim to know what it expects of us is pure human foolishness or intended maliciously to control the ignorant.

    I live my life by the simple principle that if a god exists and is a just god then I’ll be judged by my actions in this life, whether I caused harm to others or lived well doing what I’m able to make the world better, and not on whether or not I believed in and worshipped them. If a god exists that would punish me for all eternity for not worshipping them, then they are not a just god, and as such would be unworthy of such devotion. Bottomline is we will never know as long as we live, and with as short as our lives are, why waste them worrying about what we can never know. Just live your life well, be kind to others, and be the best you that you can be.
