Baron von Knifty |
Why doesn't god ever speak to an Atheist? After all, you'd think he would be hounding the non-believers the most.
|
|
Dictionary |

I have no need for religion, I have a conscience. |

If there was a God, surely he'd stop messin' us about, and tell us! |
|
Bob Allen |
A belief is an idea around which we close our minds |

Creationism, stupidity in a brand new package. |
|
David J. Constable |
Fundamentalism, of any type, due to its prerequisite lack of intelligent thought, could prove to be the worst weapon of mass destruction, of all. |
|
EA Miller |
When human beings didn’t have the means to explain things, they invented gods. Today there is no excuse for such nonsense. |
|
EA Miller |
According to the Bible, God created the ultimate bad guy, the Devil. Does anyone else understand the conflict of calling God the "good guy" here? |
|
EA Miller |
Help other human beings in need for the sake of humanity, not as a guise for indoctrinating vulnerable people. |

I would love to replace all of the guns current NRA members claim are their "God given 2nd Amendment right to own" and replace them with the pea-shooters the Founding Fathers actually possessed when they wrote the amendment. |
|

Jesus was a composite character created from attributes of much older fictional characters. Happy Easter! |
|
EA Miller |
"Jesus is the answer!"
Yes, but only if you give up on science, rational thinking, and reality itself.
|

Dr. Idel Dreimer |
The development of varied, extraordinarily complex, conscious living creatures from inanimate matter is nothing less than miraculous. But there is nothing inherently moral about the process or the result. Most living creatures are caught up in a ruthless scheme of necessary murder -- and morality is a rather rare concept derived from the lives of a few of the most complex creatures who live in social groups. The great error of religion is to assume that what is miraculous must also be moral. It simply isn't. (Observation #1714) |

Why would an all-powerful, perfect deity require constant praise to mollify its evidently deep insecurities? |
|

The Earth will breathe a sigh of relief when a stone from the last church falls on the head of the last priest. |
|
Dr. Idel Dreimer |
Gods are created for our purposes -- to do our bidding. They are used to terrify, to justify, and to explain. Consistency is not a requirement. Sometimes we expect a god to be a beneficent purveyor of egalitarian mercy -- a comforting emotional haven -- a refuge from the real world. That world, of course, is simply the outcome and embodiment of the evolutionary principles of ruthless competition and necessary murder -- it is the very world he is assumed to have knowingly created in the first place. (Observation #1857) |

Christians: “I’m fighting for my religious freedom.â€
What they’re saying in reality: “I’m fighting to inject my religious dogma into every aspect of society (e.g., government, schools, medical field) and I could give a royal fuck about anyone else’s beliefs!â€

The Christian "Abeka" series of textbooks used in the United States are a joke. Their science books definitely don't teach actual science and often mention "God made" in them. Their history books give Biblical timelines, praise Republicans, and demonize Democrats. This type of brainwashing is child abuse and perpetuates ignorance. |

WANTED FOR CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY. "GOD" and his two accomplices Jesus Christ (aka) "GOD" and the Holy Spook (aka) "GOD". If you see these three don't try to approach as they are extremely dangerous. |

Science in a religious school. Teacher, what causes thunder? It's caused by God being angry with boys and girls that have sinned. Teacher, how are babies made? God makes all babies of course. Here endeth the lesson. |

It's a fact all priests, monks and nuns are celibate. But in name only. |

Age related: Talking of old age. I don't want to live 'til I'm a hundred. That is unless I get to the age of ninety-nine.

Scientology is an even worse contagious disease than Coronavirus.

The "free will" Christians claim their god gives them always baffles me. Telling people to either accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior and repent or burn in hell forever is a threatening ultimatum, not free will in any respect! |
|
EA Miller |
Apparently, according to some pastors, I am experiencing a “faith failure†because I prefer to get my answers from scientific inquiry rather than their grand fairy-tale. |
|
EA Miller |
Of course having ashes smeared on your forehead isn’t part of some weird cult ritual! *wink* |

If you hate gays because it says so in the bible that's not a reason to hate gays thats a reason to hate the bible. |
|

Statistics show that non -believers stand as much chance of surviving disasters as believers.
That's gotta mean something. |
|

Religious leaders have fought adamantly against education for centuries because education removes the childish need for superstitious beliefs. |
|
EA Miller |
Years ago in college, I took a blow off class "Understanding Fairy-Tale" as an elective during the summer when there weren't many courses available. I imagine that's pretty much the entire curriculum for a "theology student". |

Anthony W. Allsop (Genesis) (admin) |
He who sees wrong being done and yet ignores it is also a wrongdoer. |

Odd how church folks’ definition of truth is the complete opposite of what it actually means…
“The truth always overrides the facts.†-mega rich televangelist Joyce Meyer |

The Bible, Quran and Torah religion for dummies. |
|
EA Miller |
Faith does not perform open-heart surgery. Faith does not feed the starving masses. Faith does not stop gun violence. Faith does not make climate change non-existent. What faith does do is breed false hope, divides people, causes bigotry and hatred, and puts a halt to critical thinking and analysis of the world. |
|
Pat Simons |
Few people terrify me more than politicians whose world view is shaped by inflexible religious belief. |

If prayer worked, churches wouldn't need collection plates. |

"Biblical Truth"
an oxymoron |
|
EA Miller |
It would appear that many priests and pastors fail to mention this before beginning the wedding ceremonies they preside over:
"A marriage shall only be considered valid if the wife is a Virgin, if the wife is not a Virgin she shall be Executed "
- Deuteronomy 22:13-21

EA Miller |
When one religious group finds other religions dangerous while not taking a closer look at their own beliefs, we have a concrete example of true irony and hypocrisy. |
|
EA Miller |
To stomp all over someone’s civil rights and declare that it’s “god’s will†is a faulty premise as well as morally bankrupt. |
|
Pat Simons |
Those who would break down the barriers between church and state always imagine their own religion holding sway and making the decisions for everyone. They should be imagining the sect they dislike most having control over their lives. |
|
EA Miller |
David killed Goliath with a sling and a stone; there was no sword in David’s hand. [1 Samuel 17:50)]
Then David ran and stood over Goliath; he grasped his sword, drew it out of its sheath, and killed him; then he cut off his head with it. [1 Samuel 17:51 ]
Killed again? And where did the sword come from? Oops!

Humans are older than gods as WE created THEM. |
|
Pat Simons |
Few things afflict the human species more adversely than does absolute certainty regarding the supernatural. |
|
Anthony W. Allsop (Genesis) (admin) |
Life is a lot like being a marble in a pinball machine. To get the most out of either we may require a nudge now and again. |
|
EA Miller |
Despite weekly gatherings and ridiculous amounts of prayer, mythological gods cannot magically solve any of the world’s problems. That would be up to ‘flesh and blood’ human beings. |
|
Anthony W. Allsop (Genesis) (admin) |
"Like all good believers I believe in resorting to using gobbledegook in defence of my belief." Said no believer EVER. |
|
Dr. Idel Dreimer |
Morality has no need of Gods -- it is socially derived -- a clause in every social contract. There is no practical morality for the lone castaway on a desert island -- for he can neither be sinned against nor sinning. (Observation #1428) |
|
EA Miller |
God’s perfect plan?
I’m sure the thousands of impoverished people in the world, starving to death and just hoping for a bowl of protein slop once a day from some charity relief organization, really appreciate god’s perfect plan.
