EA Miller EA Miller “The difference between parents ‘educating’ & ‘indoctrinating’ kids: If they’re teaching you facts & teaching you to think for yourself, then they’re educating you. If they’re telling you to believe things without evidence & to reject facts & evidence, they’re indoctrinating you.”

-Reality Revolutions
EA Miller EA Miller Christians often claim that the bible is the “undeniable” word of god. Yet their book is filled with numerous contradictions and words that were obviously crafted by men of the Bronze Age to favor them specifically. Seems they don’t understand that the prefix “un” means “not”. The bible is quite deniable!
EA Miller EA Miller Why would a ‘perfect deity’ ever be unhappy or angry? Couldn’t it just think anything displeasing out of existence?
EA Miller EA Miller The Bible states:

“Thou shalt have no other gods before me…” (Exodus 20:3 KJV)

Who are these other gods? Thor? Ra? Zeus? Aphrodite? I need to know!
EA Miller EA Miller There is NO heaven or hell, just us humans with only one life to live in the best possible way we can manage in our given circumstance.
Younes el yadari Younes el yadari If one time , god shows up to me and proved me that all the religion stuff are true , i will certainly do one thing ! which is ; .. going to see a psychiatrist .
Clint Murphy If the bible is the good book I would hate to see the bad book.
Unknown There is no commandment that is simply "Thou shall not lie." At least the guys who made up God and the Bible weren't hypocrites in that sense.
Skip Bazile Question everything about religion and you will discover why others don't.
Charlie Chaplin By simple common sense I don't believe in God, in none
Voltaire Voltaire If God did not exist, it would be necessary to invent him.

I choose to show more respect to the meekest human than to the most almighty of gods, for my fate may be in their human hands but never in his.

Baron von Knifty Ever notice this about religion: The bigger the hat the bigger the bullshit.

Dr. Travis A. Erickson Organized religion is the ball and chain around the leg of science
Wilson Mizner I respect faith, but doubt is what gets you an education.
EA Miller EA Miller Next time you hear someone say "That is the work of the devil" remind them: ...I make peace and create evil; I the lord do these things. Isaiah 45:7

Christians avoid that Bible passage like the plaque for good reason. They constantly condemn the devil (aka "The Enemy") yet also state that their god is omnipotent and omnipresent. This means that he not only knew what his creation would do ahead of time, but also that could have prevented it. Definitely not the sign of an all-loving god!
EA Miller EA Miller More often than not, religion gives people the excuse to seriously abuse other people. Its bigoted, destructive nature knows no limits and is a very serious threat to us all.

EA Miller EA Miller Happy Winter Solstice fellow rational thinkers!
osirisnut osirisnut Happy Yuletide everyone.
EA Miller EA Miller In life, I am guided by what is observable and testable rather than ridiculous ancient fairy-tales.
EA Miller EA Miller Religion is child abuse. It denies children the chance to rationally examine the world around them and places them on the path to narrow-minded bigotry.
Dr. Idel Dreimer Dr. Idel Dreimer The conventional, hopeful construction of "God" requires a clinical re-assessment. It is claimed he created this world of ruthless predation -- where most life forms must survive by eating others. He then appears to the top predator, and -- in return for reverence, obsequious praise, and undying devotion -- offers a compensatory escape -- paradisal and eternal -- from the unsavoury cauldron. No -- not just yet -- only when you are -- conveniently -- dead. The gullible murmur "saviour." The narrative says "psychopath." (Observation #1996)
EA Miller EA Miller The level of just how self-serving and morally bankrupt politicians are seems to be directly related to how often they mention god and quote religious texts on large media platforms.
EA Miller EA Miller People need shelter, food, water, science and empathy for other human beings. What they don’t need are propaganda-absorbing, religious crackpots telling them how to live their lives.
osirisnut osirisnut No theist satires the god he believes in and no atheist believes in the god he satires. Lord Byron
EA Miller EA Miller John 3:16:

“God so loved the world…”

…that he sent himself (remember, the myth book states that Jesus is God, the great “I am”) to sacrifice himself knowing full well that there would be no long-term repercussions and that he would soon be off to paradise to sit beside himself.

EA Miller EA Miller "Nowhere in the Bible does Jesus mention America. And nowhere in the Constitution does America mention Jesus." -B. Bowers

Dr. Idel Dreimer Dr. Idel Dreimer Belief in nonsense can be a powerful force. The lack of facts and logic requires an over-compensation in steely stubbornness and desperate determination. (Observation #1839)
Pat Simons Pat Simons What good thing has any member of the clergy ever done, that could have only been done by a member of the clergy?
Pat Simons Pat Simons The preachers are a protected class of social parasites. One of the things that disgusts me most about them is the way they come crawling out of the woodwork after every disaster, natural or man made, to explain god's motives to we lesser individuals. God's motives always have a remarkable similarity to the personal biases of what ever preacher is speaking at the moment.
EA Miller EA Miller Religion:

When one gives up entirely on thinking!

The very fact that many hundreds of gods and their religions have been well and truly consigned to history should give us hope that today's gods and their religions will - more than likely - follow suit in the near future.
EA Miller EA Miller Persons in powerful government positions who base their decisions on invisible gods in the sky are not of sound mind to be in such important positions. They often effect the lives of many rational thinking people in very adverse ways.
Dr. Idel Dreimer Dr. Idel Dreimer Nobody has all the answers -- but questions are essential. Nothing further will be discovered by those who find truth in fantasy -- and stop asking questions. (Observation #1471)
EA Miller EA Miller Reality frightens Christians because if they accepted it they would come to the inescapable conclusion that all living things are finite in their existence.
EA Miller EA Miller Ever notice the Bible is the only book that claims to be non-fiction and contains no references to back its claims?

A little basic math…

Zero + $1.00 = $1.00

Prayer + $1.00 also = $1.00

Curious that
EA Miller EA Miller God is sugar-free, fat-free, and has zero calories. Oxygen can also make this claim, but only ONE of these two things is real!

The only way a lie can prosper is if it's convincingly disguised as the truth.

Which makes one wonder how the BIGGEST lie ever got off the bloody ground.
EA Miller EA Miller God is NOT love…

Hosea 13:16 "They will fall by the sword; their little ones will be dashed to the ground, their pregnant women ripped open."
EA Miller EA Miller Religion was created to control and keep people subservient while cruelly reducing the value of certain groups of individuals and elevating the status of others who haven’t earned it.
EA Miller EA Miller Maybe it's just me, but I prefer to think for myself rather than let a fictional character dictate what I do with my life!
EA Miller EA Miller Funny how both sides (North and South) of the United States Civil War thought that God was on their side and yet only one side won.

"The greatest minds are often the most open minds." ~Bill Flavel~

Very well said, Bill. Obviously that doesn't mean minds should be open to the obviously ridiculous.
EA Miller EA Miller “Religion is the millstone around our necks, dragging us into the past and giving authority to those who deserve it least.”

-Harry McMahon
EA Miller EA Miller “If a believer demands that I, as a nonbeliever, observe his taboos in the public domain, he is not asking for my respect, but for my submission.”

-Flemming Rose
EA Miller EA Miller If god is invisible, who’s to say that he’s not naked and watching you this very minute? Fictional characters really can be quite creepy!
EA Miller EA Miller “Forget Jesus. The stars died so you could be born.”

–Lawrence Krauss
EA Miller EA Miller “No one ever finds Jesus before being told about him. Odd that.”

-Adrian Briggs
