Joe your version of the "truth" seems to just be attributable to your own personal feelings rather than actually anything that could be tested, proved and demonstrated. Following Islam does not make life any more truthful than it does the King James Bible's unicorns!

Take the book above - it has been mauled, it has been discredited because of its false and highly incorrect information showed within.

You are backing this guy up due to personal feelings rather than fact - there is a great difference and it is a great mistake to make.

So stop trusting the unicorn type arguments and look at proper, reliable, demonstrable facts in front of you.

I got this from the article http://www.wftv.com/news/16806050/detail.html

"We've been praying about that," she said.
(Carol Brinati with the Diocese of Orlando)t

So right, with this praying, did God at ANY point start hurling the lightning or do ANYTHING to get what supposedly is his son back?

Do these people not think at all? If that really was the Body of Christ, God would have smote Cook's arse before he got the sodding wafer back to his room!

GIVETH ME MINE SON BACK! KAAAAAAAAAAAABOOOOOOOOMMM!

End of story

But no, the ones who want it back are getting frantic that it is THEM God is going to punish unless the perform the right ceremony to sort it all out??

Gonzalez said intentionally abusing the Eucharist is classified as a mortal sin in the Catholic church, the most severe possible. If it's not returned, the community of faith will have to ask for forgiveness.

"We have to make acts of reparation," Gonzalez said. "The whole community is going to turn to prayer. We'll ask the Lord for pardon, forgiveness, peace, not only for the whole community affected by it, but also for [Cook], we offer prayers for him as well."

Catholicism is a religion of FEAR, they are utterly nasty to themselves, they really are - the more "hurt" they feel the more appropriate it seems, why? Are they sadomasochists as well as into ritualised cannibalism?

He was convicted in a court of law Joe, so no I will not forget about it!


From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harun_Yahya

According to the indictment of the prosecutor's office, cited by the daily Cumhuriyet, Adnan Oktar and associates raped young women many of whom were under the age of 18 on camera and blackmailed them by threatening to release the sex tapes to their friends and family members. Many of these young women were then forced to to entice select young men from wealthy families with the promise sex in exchange for attending events organised by the BAV. The court heard how in turn these girls were formed into a group called of what they referred to as Odalisques and were ordered to videotape their sex sessions with these young men and deliver the tapes to Oktar.

So do you condone Oktar's raping of these women? Or do you just want to put it down to "ruffling a few feathers?

Comment #206083 by Philip1978 on July 8, 2008 at 4:50 am

Here is how I see the Bible and its some of its message to its readers

Genesis - Knowledge and the acquisition of it makes god very angry, despite the fact he places the tree of knowledge in easy reach of his credulous creations.

Moses says rape of virgins and killing a lot of people in God's name is good, no false gods, no coveting they neighbour's wife's shapely arse, no killing, no blaspheming - or ELSE! (Confused about the killing bit yet? I am!)

Abraham -is told to kill his son and bbq him in order to prove his faith, stopped at the last second then he proceeds to advocate mutilation of genitals because they have not been designed well enough. (More killing is good if God tells you to

Isaiah - An "unclean" man begs to have hot burning coal over his lips before he even deems himself worthy to speak to one of god's messengers. He is then told that those who don't believe in God are deaf, dumb and blind with closed hearts - God apparently is the only one to help the non believer out of this. Isaiah dons the sack cloth underpants and takes to the streets before he becomes a better man who apparently believes in god much better after that.

King David - Beats the shit out of those who disagree with God, gets a man killed so he can marry that man's wife - becomes a king, shouts at the disabled saying they are not worthy at his dinner table - then dons the sackcloth under pants, takes to the streets, becomes nothing, gets ridiculed, gets to know God's message better and he goes back to being king


Jesus - Preaches that only subservience to God can encourage love, only the wretched are worthy, the more fucked up the better - if you want to be really "special", have your friends and family hate you and also despise your own self a heck of a lot in order to be persecuted. If any part of you is not worthy of god, you cut it off, best to get rid of the sinful bits! Then Jesus dons the underpants, dies a horrible and painful death, comes back and then sods off again - all supposedly to prove you have to suffer because god has made you a sinner until you love him for it


So there you have it folks - fear, misery, pain, ridicule, sack cloth underpants, knowing only what god tells you or else you die and go to hell. I think there might be a clause in there somewhere by which if you don't try and scare the crap out of others to think the way you do, somehow that also gets you into trouble with god.


Look at the above posts from our esteemed believers and think about how much they are shitting themselves over evolution and science, its bloody scary!

Is knowledge such a bad thing for you, is learning about evolution just too much, does your god really want you guys to be satisfied with knowing nothing except fear?

How is this possibly going to educate someone? I share everybody's astonishment as to how this book got published and distributed FOR FREE!

Is this chap looking for the "even bad publicity is good publicity" move, where if he sends his book to the likes of Richard Dawkins and gets a mention, even as to how incredibly inaccurate and misleading it is, he gets publicity?

That is one thing I don't think I will ever understand - if I wanted to change people's minds on here about proving natural selection is wrong, I would HAVE to bring the proper evidence along, its plain and simple!

Something weird is going on or am I giving the religious too much credit here and that they are THAT stupid?

So who do we have defending this book?

I don't know what year exactly Christ was born in, but that question doesn't really matter, because Jesus is a historical figure; that's a fact most professional historians don't debate.

I say it does matter, this is supposed to be the Son of your God and I would have thought that having an exact date would help, instead the Bible claims he was born on two separate dates, either 6 BC or AD - Who was right Matthew or Luke?


Jesus was NOT a historical figure, he is a myth, a metaphor for what passed for the ideal king or prophet which was taken from previous, Near Eastern religions. Look at his name meaning "Anointed One Who Rescues" - I hate to sound sarcastic but golly, what were the chances of that name popping up? What I suggest you do is take a long hard look at the Egyptian God Horus who was around 2500 years or so before Jesus, if you go and look at the similarity between those two you will understand my scepticism a little better.

There is no record of him ever existing in the 1st Century AD other than in the Bible claiming so and the Bible is the worst historical document I have ever had the misfortune of reading. If it can't even get Jesus's birth or death down to an accurate spot or trace his lineage properly etc what possible credibility could it have as a historical document? I just don't understand how documents written AT LEAST 60 to 100 years after the event could possibly be accurate.

Lets take Nazareth for example, it is highly improbable that Jesus could ever have grown up there, there is no historical evidence of his ever being there or even it being mentioned until the end of the 4th century AD:

http://teafueledmadness.blogspot.com/2008/07/history-lesson-1-nazareth-part-2.html

or here

http://www.jesuspolice.com/common_error.php?id=4



Or if you want just a critique on the Bible and its origins go take a look at this:

http://www.bidstrup.com/bible.htm



The only group of "historians" I know who debate Jesus are those 150 from the Jesus Seminar who somehow managed to attribute sayings from a gospel like Matthew to be authentic but not in Luke when he says roughly the same things!

I will accept a human Jesus only when the evidence is more concrete, I will never accept a miracle worker, that is far too complex and improbable to even discuss. I still find it absolutely amazing that for a guy to be as famous as Jesus has so much evidence pointing at his not existing, the mind doth boggle!

You are not far off by a long shot, as I said in an above post, your religion is the product of a multitude of "stories" made up way beyond when your religion was.

Really, if you have studied history as well as you claimed to have can you explain to me why historical characters in the Bible be they prophet or holy man suddenly act in exactly the same pattern?

If you are a historian, there is one thing I would like to clear up is when Jesus was actually born, was it 6 BC or AD? The Bible cannot seem to provide an answer.

My studies into this whole thing have convinced me that the role of Jesus, Elijah, David etc in the Bible are all metaphors of roles from previous civilisations, the role of the king or prophets always follow a certain pattern.


You look in the Bible at any of the prophets or kings - how do they act?

Prophets seem to have a large bent on feeding an inordinate amount of people, finding obscure families for whom they get magical food to etc but most importantly the raising of the dead and the healing of the sick. the whole Bible is full of this stuff.

Just one cursory glance at previous civilisations, just one look at how a king or a supposed magical prophet man works and behaves in the narrative of previous religions is EXACTLY the same as can be found in the Bible. Mesopotamian, Babylonian, Egyptian (If there was a heavier influence for Jesus or the Bible prophets, kings (eg David) or ordinary folk like Job I would be hard pressed to find it anywhere else)

This tablet is nothing new to me, it only confirms that the Jesus story is only following a pattern, a pattern of a king, a pattern of a prophet or philosopher, a pattern of a set of ethics all channeled from previous religions and sects.

If the religious population would actually wake up and read some proper history for once and learn about the past - sometimes 3000 years plus before the birth of their stories, I do mean stories here, then the world would be a less confused place.

Here endeth the lesson! :)

I think I will have to add my own "oh for fucks sake!" on this one, I am really just boggled at just how dangerous Simon Butcher type people are.

Watch that video again and look at that man's eyes, he really,really, really, really, really, really, really, really,really,really,really,really,really,really,really believes it. Jesus is going to save his arse, even if he is not wearing his nice shiny white robe, Jesus will be there for him in his life time. No doubts, no nuffink, Jebus wuvs him vewy vewy muchly!

I hope there are more Sam Harris shaped people in the world, I really do. Just enough to shovel the batshit in the right direction, just enough to give the next super-power leader the chance to think, if I give that order, perhaps, just maybe, Jesus will not arrive on his fiery chariot and actually the world would be more screwed than a Soho prostitute if I sent it to nuclear hell.

That is the bit that got me in the End Of Faith, that leader with his or her finger on the button, getting more dewy eyed at the prospect of fulfilling the prophesy - to be the one to call Jesus or Allah down to supposedly save the Earth by destroying most of it by starting world war 3.

Part of me, in fact most of me, has more confidence in humanity than to blow itself to shit, no conspiracy theory will ever get the best of me, I am not that sort of chap. But, nonetheless I am concerned that people take an almost orgasmic pleasure and desire to go blow the world up for their religion.

Despite that, I am about to watch Dr Who, if anyone can save the world, he can surely! :)

Oh balls

When I wrote it i thought I had added enough exclamation marks to ensure I wasn't trying to chew Txpipers head off, looking back at it, I went over the top and I feel somewhat stupid.

Txpiper, I will rephrase my challenge a bit, I think its best if I don't look like I want to chew your head off, its not who I am. I basically wanted you to look at all the civilisations present around the time the flood took place and see if you could come up with an explanation as to how they survived despite the Bible's claims otherwise.

I hope that clears things up and I am sorry about my earlier outburst

I absolutely promise, not a word of what I did type was in anyway delivered in tension, I promise I was being my usual silly self, sometimes I may type badly, but the madness is still here :) - I just have studied enough History and English to know that Timmy is lying and I do not approve of his telling me otherwise.

The nutters will not get to me, the Tea eventually will! :)

Philip wakes up in strange haze, how come earlier did he have the loquacity to deliver short but decisive sentences to demolish his opponents?

Why is it I now have to use 50 words instead of one...I guess I need more Tea or something! :)
