Theists should take note that NO atheists were involved in the crucifixion of their "god".
History tells us that Jesus broke local religious laws, tantamount to blasphemy. Edicts instituted by theist government.
He was arrested by theists, tried for his crimes by theists, found guilty and sentenced to death by theists, beaten, tortured and then made to carry his cross to a hill outside the city by theists, nailed to that cross by theists, had his legs savagely broken by theists and a theist soldier thrust his sword through his chest.
Not ONE atheist would have been involved in any of the above. Simply because it would have been against their "religion(?).
I would have to imagine that had I been around at that time I would've had to keep my atheist head down through fear of being nailed to a cross myself. But I dare bet that that atheist head of mine would have been shaking in total disbelief at the silliness of it all. |

The Sea of Faith
Was once, too, at the full, and round earth's shore
Lay like the folds of a bright girdle furled.
But now I only hear
Its melancholy, long, withdrawing roar,
Retreating, to the breath
Of the night-wind, down the vast edges drear
And naked shingles of the world. - Matthew Arnold |

"Many followers will claim their god is all powerful, all just, all perfect, all wise, omnipotent, and knows the past, present,and future. . .If this is the case, why didn't their god have the foresight to inspire the writers of the Bible so it would be filled with timeless morals and ethics that would apply to any culture in any time period of human history and written in such a way that nobody could ever misinterpret it?" - Eric Kincade |

It took God six days to create an entire universe. With all this tremendous power and knowledge why did God not do it all in an instant? |

Death, my son, is a good thing for all men; it is the night for this worried day that we call life. It is in the sleep of death that finds rest for eternity the sickness, pain, desperation, and the fears that agitate, without end, we unhappy living souls. ― Bernardin de Saint-Pierre, |

Many religions believe in an afterlife in which when a human being dies, their body stays behind and their souls go to a so called "Heaven" where you live for the rest of eternity. Our brain is our conscious being and thought centrum which also happens to be a part of our body. So in theory, if our body stays behind we will never consciously live in the spiritual realm. |

Science versus Faith.
There is good science and there is bad science. But at least when it's bad science the scientists are man enough to admit it.
Theists' should take note. |

An unbeliever's view on why he isn't prepared to keep his damn opinions on the subject of imagined gods to himself:
I endeavour to educate misguided irrational believers of false entities in very much the same way as I - as an adult - would be expected to teach children road safety awareness.

For too long tradition has shielded religion and given it a free pass. It is like a spoilt child that believes the rules do not apply to it. Ask it to prove itself historically and it blatantly exhorts, “I am historical but the normal rules of historical evidence do not apply to me;†beg it to prove itself scientifically and it mutters, “faith is all I offer you,†attempt to hold it accountable for its crimes and it will invoke tradition as a legal defense; and should you commit the crime of asking it to conform to the rules of logic, it will simply smile at you and hand you nothing but illogical arguments wrapped in a thin veneer of misappropriated logic. For too long religion has hidden beneath the emotional bonds of an intellectually dark tradition, but no more. From now on, let’s hold it accountable. Michael Sherlock author. |

How much longer are we going to be required to sing in tribute to imaginary deities?
We might just as well sing in praise of The Mad Hatter, Red Riding Hood and Rumplefuckinstiltskin. |

Centuries ago if someone did something to cause awe and bewilderment it was called a miracle. If someone to-day does something to cause awe and bewilderment it's called a trick. |

In Italy, the Inquisition was condemning people to death until the end of the eighteenth century, and inquisitional torture was not abolished in the Catholic Church until 1816. The last bastion of support for the reality of witchcraft and the necessity of punishment has been the Christian churches.

The catholic church teaches that it's a sin to masturbate it also says it's a sin to think about masturbating, is it therefore a sin to think that all priests regardless of there position in the catholic church, are all wankers. |

Similar to standing up to bullies and thugs and fearmongers of the weak and infantile minded, It is time to rise with the courage and intellect of adulthood, to dictate back to the dictators that defiled and indoctrinated our youth. |

There are many who lust for the simple answers of doctrine or decree. They are on the left and right. They are not confined to a single part of the society. They are terrorists of the mind. - A. Bartlett Giamatti

Dr. Idel Dreimer |
Religion is the great salesman of snake oil, the pious pitchman of healing nostrum, the pretending purveyor of chimerical panacea: it speaks of an oasis where, to the horizon, stretches only an unbroken sea of sand, of a voice where there is only silence, and of truth where there is only unfathomable mystery. |

Dr. Idel Dreimer |
Religion shows that the price of contentment is folly. |

Dr. Idel Dreimer |
At the heart of religion is deception; the range is from feel-good bamboozlement to wolf in sheep's clothing |

You have history, 13.8 Billion Years of it.
You are the stuff of the stars.
The bits and pieces of your ultimate being were churned
out in the unimaginable violence of the death throes of suns.
The ground you stand on coalesced from star dust, and from it
you can look up to the light that has warmed and nurtured it
for over 4.5 billion years.
You are the work in progress...
The current phase of some 4 billion years of evolutionary
change, the improbable survivor in a process that rejected
99% of your fellow creatures.
You are a human being, a product of the awesome power and majesty of nature.
Now, get up off of your fucking knees and ACT like it. |
