Jesus will save you - not.

If someone was brought up in a controlled environment where information was filtered and they were given zero information about god, what would their belief/value system become?

Does god have a way of communicating with people or has he devolved the spiritual continuence on the parents of the child to bring said child up in said faith?

I wonder how many children who are brought up in faith A, sudenly denounce it and adopt faith B? The lack of wholescale movement to the 'one true god' suggests to me that god has no active involvement in which faith children are brought up in. This becomes an issue whern we consider that children could burn in hell for eternity if they do not accept jesus. Why is god so devolved from the process?

Jesus could have a little chat with every child when they get to 5. He could introduce himself and explain about sin, redemtion and eternal life. Instead, he leaves this to mere mortals, many of whom dress up in sily costumes and insist that their congregation eat crackers and drink wine, not a child friendly activity.

The christian faith is dying. The Anglican church is mortally wounded by the inclusion of women and the pope is nothing more than a pimp. Does anyone still beileve in the salvation of jesus?

The One True God

Does God exist?

Someone asked on my local forum, "Does God exist and if so, where is the proof? This was my response. View the thread here.

One only has to look at all the beautiful plants and trees to know that this couldn't have just happened. It needed intelligent design. What about an eye? How could that have just appeared? If a tornado hit a car breakers, it wouldn't leave an E Type in its wake.

However the designer was a bit naff. Putting sex organs next to the sewage system and indeed having them operate as both is novel but not the best design option. I know the childbitrth thing weas a curse from god but really - A hinged door over the stomach opened by a code provided by god on 9 months would be better and would save a fortune in healthcare.

Why not have parents needing to spend a year in close proximity before the female could get pregnant? That would solve a lot of social problems. Bones break too easily. A good god would have thought of this before the seventh day or would have fixed it after. If humans were bendy and could bounce from great heights, there would be a lot less to go wrong. Needing blood to carry oxygen round the body is a bit of a no-brainer. Fine until someone gets accidentally opened up or those white cells get a mind of their own.

I suppose god was a bit limited because he had to make us in his own image for some reason but hey, got to give the guy a 6 out of 10 for effort.

The bible is the word of ..... desert dwelling fools.

The bible is a load of drivel. Ray Mears Survival Guide or Animal Husbandry by Jethro Tull would have served people better. Where is the wisdom of god in the bible? He is all powerful and it just talks about boat building and who begat who. Is that all he wanted people to know? Where is he now when things are really hotting up? He could sort out the BP oil leak without even breaking wind but he does nothing. Why, because he is a figment of your imagination you dumb twat.

I posted this on someone's blog and must learn how to calm down. The more I look at religion and the peple who buy into it, the more scared I become.

God likes Black Holes.

I had never heard of Richard Carrier before but I'm pleased I came across him.

Is the bible literally true? Two kinds of people ask this question;
those who believe that it really is and they then go on to quote from it
and those who are about to rip it to pieces.

This is my comment to the blog piece here;

The bible is full of contradictions and reads like an essay in Geneology. How can it be the word of god? It contains what god is supposed to have said to people who he appeared to when no-one else was there. Couldn't he have written it himself? Was he dyslexic? There weren't any tape recorders at the time but he could have improvised.

There have been no further releases in the last many hundred years. Has it ever occured to you that the bible is at best a collection of writings by desert dwellest trying to explain how they got here and how to look after their own and at worst, a tool to manipulate and control?

Want to guess which category I am from?

My picture of Mohammed.

This is my picture of Mohammed. He is sitting on a nice porcelain toilet, the likes of which are mentioned in the Koran over a thousand years before they were discovered. You would think someone would have taken out a patent before Mr Crapper.

Notice the psychedelic art that has been added to the picture. It is well documented that Mohammed was a pot-head who invented the electric guitar when inserting wires thin enough to break in his 'wife' Aisha. Her writhing caused harmonic distortion that Mohammed was able to utilise through a Marshall stack and a humbucker pickup. The rosewood neck followed later when Aisha was able to be more accommodating.

He went on to tour extensively throughout the Middle East, developing an extreme reputation as a hedonistic pleasure seeker, taking on many male and female lovers. He was also rumoured to experiment with satanic worship before turning his back on sex drugs and paedophilia and opening up an antique shop in Eastbourne where he became friends with Ronnie Barker.
