If I Could Make A Deal With God

Kate Bush (born Catherine Bush; 30 July 1958) is an English singer-songwriter, musician and record producer. Her eclectic musical style and idiosyncratic vocal style have made her one of the United Kingdom's most successful solo female performers of the past 30 years.

She is one of my all time favorite composer/singers. Incredibly creative.

Look at all them cowards who are not sure. The religious nuts certainly have put the fear of the big imaginary sky daddy into people. All you have to do is believe to avoid frying for all eternity. How crazy is that? Just some silly consent is all that is required, nothing else. This god certainly has some big and odd ego.

Another odd thing is more women give god a favorable vote than men. How does that misogynous god do it?

Best Prayer Ever

Nascar July 23, 2011 invocation prayer by Pastor Joe Nelms

Lisa Helms - Am sure she was thrilled to be apart of this public prayer. If the Oscars are any indication, he just have screwed up with her and he was hoping this would make her happy with him again. Guys can be so dopey some times.

Doesn't this prayer really show how real these guys think this shit is? It is such a goof. He forgot to thank god for fast food which I would say he enjoys.

My hot wife and I were at a restaurant this past weekend. A middle age man was there with his pre-teen daughter where he was corrupting her in the ways of the magical sky daddy. When their food came he bowed his head, she followed. He prayed loud enough for us to hear. He quickly got over the thanks for the food part and then went into the longest plead for him & his to be blest. He even asked for his business to be blest. I am sure Jeebus was getting it all down quickly and was gonna get right on it. Never mind young children who were dying from starvation and malaria at the same time.

Matthew 6:5

And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men. I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full.

Christians Love Not To Know

The last guy nails it. Arguments from ignorance is the best evidence for a god and I would say Christians crave ignorance. The less you know the easier it is to believe. They love not to know to allude to a great Chris Rock bit. Irreducible Complexity. Tide goes in, tide goes out, never a miscommunication - You can't explain that. To Christians the brain is like the appendix. It has no apparent use and when it flares up it is best to get it removed as soon as possible, everlasting life is as stake.

Is it just me or doesn't the guy on the receipt look more like Mohammed?

How delighted they are that they had an "unexplainable" miracle happen. Aren't they special? The power of God is strong at Walmart. The guy claims he wants to know how it happened, but I am sure he is confident no one will step up to investigate because well what would be the point? He would deny whatever was found.

Ignorance is bliss. They have made up their mind, they don't want to be confused with the facts.

Proof God Does Not Exist Theodicy Argument

TGBaker on the Rational Readers Squad website has put together a logic proof for the non-existence of God. It is really good.

1) There is a possible world of only well-being (p).

2) A capable limitless good being (x) knowing of this world (p) would actualize (necessarily) it over possible worlds with evil and suffering (q).

3)x necessarily would not allow q

4)p-->; not q

5) It is possible that god is x

6)q -->; not p

7) Our world=q therefore not p

8)not p

9)not p--->;not x

10)not x

11)god= not x

Outsider's Test of Faith

The presuppositionalist argues Scripture cannot be judged since it is the judge of all things. We are born in sin and God choose us and never the other way around. You have to be an insider. If he doesn't pick you too bad for you. You cannot understand. You mind is useless to understand.

We are all atheist, we just reject one more god than you do.

Examine your own faith with the same level of skepticism you use when examining the other faiths you reject

Founding Father Quotes On Christianity

Thomas Jefferson - reason over religion

Letter to Thomas Law, June 13, 1814

If we did a good act merely from love of God and a belief that it is pleasing to Him, whence arises the morality of the Atheist? ...Their virtue, then, must have had some other foundation than the love of God.

Letter to John Adams, April 11, 1823

And the day will come when the mystical generation of Jesus, by the supreme being as his father in the womb of a virgin will be classed with the fable of the generation of Minerve in the brain of Jupiter. But may we hope that the dawn of reason and freedom of thought in these United States will do away with this artificial scaffolding, and restore to us the primitive and genuine doctrines of this most venerated reformer of human errors.

I have recently been examining all the known superstitions of the world, and do not find in our particular superstition [Christianity] one redeeming feature. They are all alike, founded upon fables and mythologies.

In a 1787 letter to his nephew and ward, Peter Carr, while at school, Jefferson offered the following advice:

Fix Reason firmly in her seat, and call to her tribunal every fact, every opinion. Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve the homage of reason than of blindfolded fear. ... Do not be frightened from this inquiry by any fear of its consequences. If it end in a belief that there is no God, you will find incitements to virtue in the comfort and pleasantness you feel in its exercise and in the love of others which it will procure for you. -- (Jefferson's Works, Vol. ii., p. 217)

In his 1787 Notes on the State of Virginia, Jefferson stated:

Millions of innocent men, women and children, since the introduction of Christianity, have been burned, tortured, fined and imprisoned. What has been the effect of this coercion? To make one half the world fools and the other half hypocrites; to support roguery and error all over the earth... Our sister states of Pennsylvania and New York, however, have long subsisted without any establishment at all. The experiment was new and doubtful when they made it. It has answered beyond conception. They flourish infinitely. Religion is well supported; of various kinds, indeed, but all good enough; all sufficient to preserve peace and order: or if a sect arises, whose tenets would subvert morals, good sense has fair play, and reasons and laughs it out of doors, without suffering the state to be troubled with it. They do not hang more malefactors than we do. They are not more disturbed with religious dissensions. On the contrary, their harmony is unparalleled, and can be ascribed to nothing but their unbounded tolerance, because there is no other circumstance in which they differ from every nation on earth. They have made the happy discovery, that the way to silence religious disputes, is to take no notice of them. Let us too give this experiment fair play, and get rid, while we may, of those tyrannical laws.

In an 1802 letter to the Danbury Baptist Association, he wrote:

Believing with you that religion is a matter which lies solely between man and his God, that he owes account to none other for his faith or his worship, that the legislative powers of government reach actions only, and not opinions, I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should "make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof," thus building a wall of separation between church and State.

Notes on Virginia, 1782

The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbour to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg.

To Benjamin Waterhouse in 1811, Jefferson referred to the Revelation of St. John as "the ravings of a maniac"

Letter to Dr. Thomas Cooper, February 10, 1814

Christianity neither is, nor ever was a part of the common law.

Letter to Roger C. Weightman, June 24, 1826 (in the last letter he penned)

May it be to the world, what I believe it will be, (to some parts sooner, to others later, but finally to all,) the signal of arousing men to burst the chains under which monkish ignorance and superstition had persuaded them to bind themselves, and to assume the blessings and security of self-government. All eyes are opened, or opening, to the rights of man. The general spread of the light of science has already laid open to every view the palpable truth, that the mass of mankind has not been born with saddles on their backs, nor a favored few booted and spurred, ready to ride them legitimately, by the grace of God.

Rapture Debbie Harry Style

Deborah Ann "Debbie" Harry (born July 1, 1945) is an American singer–songwriter and actress, most famous for being the lead singer for the New Wave band Blondie. My wife and I went to see her in a local club a number of years ago. As Shirley Manson of Garbage said of her she is really an approachable and genuine person. She was sitting at one of the tables in the club and we talk to her as if we were talking to a friend.

She is known mostly by more famous songs, but I like Rapture. She chose to rap on it which was pretty novel at the time.
