Comment #217240 by Philip1978 on July 24, 2008 at 4:54 am
I regret that many atheists comment with great assurance about the "fuzzy" or "good" feeling that accompanies the experience of God. Clearly they are choosing to ignore the dramatically life-changing, world-view threatening nature of being touched by the love of God. Even atheists should stick to talking about what they know about!
Richard I know a lot about God from reading the Bible and it is more than clear that he is not a loving God! I dare you to show me how his repeated acceptance of rape, murder and torture is in anyway an indication of a loving God.
You atheists have difficulty taking Christians seriously, because they are Christians.
NO! I have difficulty with religion as a whole! All of those believers who think that by making ridiculous and impossible claims to knowledge which can never be backed up is in some way laudable or clever baffles me completely!
You see, so many people here told me to "Get a life" that God ended up by giving me one!
Er Richard, WHICH god was that? Yahweh? Allah? Thor?
This sort of thing really irritates me, nothing has been thought out at all - its just mindless acceptance!
For crying out loud HOW on Earth did your God (and not the other billions of gods that humans have created down the ages) manage to get the intellectual property rights to the workings of the universe in order to manipulate the workings of said universe so that you, out of the 6.5 billion other people, were chosen to be one of his "special people"?
You have just assumed it was the Christian God and never looked back!

I would also like to add that I have proof of Quetz's power and existence as I have witnessed his miracles first hand.
An ex-girlfriend of mine had a bad headache, I said to her have a cup of tea in the name of the Almighty Quetz and lo her headache went away and we did praise his excellence - what more evidence do you all need?

I would put a lot of money on Jesus not ever having existed simply from what I have been studying of late.
Jesus Christ - Name literally means Anointed One who will rescue, there are millions of religions that came before Christianity, there are loads of anointed ones and rescuers.
Jesus is a character meant to fulfil a previously understood idealised notion of what a king, prophet or god-man would get up to based on the antics of earlier civilisations who also embraced EXACTLY the same ideas as to how one of the above should "work" in a narrative.
Think of it as a Shakespeare character, his plays are reflections of society, of what was happening at that point in history. They are devices to show particular themes that direct the outcome of the play, human traits in character form if you will.
If you were look at how a character like David, Isaiah, Job, Moses, Noah, Abraham, Jesus, etc acts in the bible. There are patterns galore and they are all very similar to previous Near Eastern religions, I find it very difficult to look at it otherwise.
Christianity was started by word of mouth, how easy would it have been to incorporate stories from previous religions to then fit with what they eventually came up with 60-150 years after Jesus is supposed to have lived?
I will accept the "idea" of Jesus existing but nothing more than that, there is no historical evidence to show it yet. I will obviously accept I am wrong but it all looks far too coincidental to me :)
I hope that helps a bit

TO THE BLIND FOOLS - MORE PAIN AND SIMMERING FOR YOU
Joe, you are an moron.
Do you actually know what you are doing? You don't answer questions, you threaten, plagiarise, and refuse point blank to accept facts when they have been presented to you.
You seem to think we should respect you for that and it really confuses me why you would think such a stupid thing.
I have said it before, you are an arrogant bully, fuelled by your misogynistic and dangerous religion that you think gives you license to be such an intolerable bastard.
I would also like to reiterate that I am not in the slightest bit scared or intimidated by you, I really do not give a shit what ridiculous diatribes you hurl at us - really, can't you see its not working.
We are all laughing at you! You and your religion are a complete joke!

The Council of Nicaea was a shambles, it never sorted out the civil war twixt the Arians and the Cathars and the vote itself was a fix anyway. A Spanish prelate called Ossius, a Cathar, managed to bend Constantine's ear long enough for the vote to be influenced yet Constantine died an Arian! It goes to show the Christian religion is a total joke, plagiarised from ancient religions that the humans in later centuries managed to add bits on to as and when it suited the brainwashing of the people. Crusades good, crusades bad, Slavery normal, Slavery un-Christian, Limbo exists, Oh no it doesn't, sorry! etc etc
God doth seem to change his mind a lot and only tell a select number of people one thing and a load of other people another, what an IDIOT!

Ah, tis Robert again!
Robert, I have a small question for you, how come it HAS to be your god and your denomination of Christianity that makes you so right above the 30,000 plus denominations of Christianity and the celestial hypermarket of gods created down the ages?
Having so many denominations of Christianity in itself shows just how crap your god is at making his believers aware of what it is he wants of you, but I am very interested as to why yours is The Truth.
Roland_F's post is a prime example of a God that came before yours did, there are plenty more where that one came from, same myths, stories and metaphors used to create the idealised version of a king or ruler in the form of a god. People worshipped that god as much as you worship yours - yet you make the claim that somehow that god is not as good as yours - I think that deserves a proper explanation don't you?

I am happy for you being all happy, I honestly am and bravo on the music, it is still at your usual great standards, but please don't think the rest of us want to believe in your god.
I for one do not for one second think that your God, were he to exist, be the loving delusional fantasy you claim he is.
It sickens me that you would even claim such a thing, the Christian God is despicable - Don't believe me? I can give you the Bible quotes if you want.
So can you please stop doing that, its annoying and its untrue.

Using your "reason" and "logic" has got you making baseless assumptions that you cannot back up unless you keep referring to your magic book.
Unless your knowledge and understanding of the universe is better than that of experts like Richard Dawkins I suggest you stop making claims based on nothing more than mere fantasy.
Sorry if I come across as rude, I honestly don't mean to, but I simply cannot get my head around invoking "Gods" as the best explanation when you clearly don't know what you are talking about.

So
WOW I was "refuted" by Joe...what was it he said
Your referring to cowboy sites carries no weight beyond your wishful-thinking. (Corrected for spelling!)
Hehehehhehhehhe hahahhahahhaha LOL!
I was quoting mostly from the Qu'ran, hahahahaha! It actually says all that shit in there, I didn't make any of that up! So the Qu'ran is "cowboy" is it? Cool, for once we are in agreement!
Your religion hates women and treats them like shit, even to the point of condoning rape and beating them up - that is a fact!
Your religion, as stated in the Qu'ran encourages those who believe to kill and destroy those who do not believe - that is a fact!
Your religion encourages martyrdom - it has encouraged people to blow themselves up and kill innocent people, it encouraged people to fly planes into buildings killing thousands just because of the Qu'ran and your religion. That is a fact!
Your religion will kill anyone who wants to leave it, its called apostasy and there is a penalty for it - death. That is a fact!
Please tell me Joe, where was I making all this up? Islam is not a religion of peace, it is a religion of subjugation, death and brutality.
It gives you the impetus to act like a belligerent, arrogant fool, always insisting you are right. Just because you insist it is true, does not in the slightest bit show you are right!
All this "AS ALLAH SAYS IN QU'RAN": is bullshit, it means nothing, that is just another fairy tale book that plagiarised Christianity and Judaism who had made up their religions from ancient Near Eastern religions. That is also a fact, do some bloody reading, I did, I am a historian, I am not a perfect one by any means but I checked the facts before I made my assertions- you don't, you simply assume!
Billy was right, you could look at Harry Potter and claim The Truth, it would still be a work of fiction, J K Rowling would still be just a human author who wrote using her imagination but no, turn it in to a religion and somehow it all suddenly becomes The Truth which nobody is allowed to touch after that.
I am sick and tired of being TOLD all the time that every single religion is THE TRUTH and bad things will happen to me if I don't follow it all. All this GAME OVER BOYS is just utter dribble, I have had worse and more convincing ultimatums from my 4 year old cousin, let it go!
Grow up!

I will hunt the book down and hopefully post something on here later today, internet permitting.
Its just a phrase that is one of those top 5 that they dismissed elsewhere saying it wasn't.
The Jesus seminar stuff weirds me out, they cannot even decide what Jesus was, was he a philosopher - then he would have said this - was he a priest? - then he would have said this - was he a politician - then he would have said this etc etc
All this time forgetting that most of those phrases can be found in Near Eastern ancient religions, its madness I tell thee!

I find the idea of me owning a gun a bit scary - I can't shoot for piss for one thing :)
I guess the one thing is that I have not grown up with guns as you have done. In England, if you have a gun related incident, the armed police squad pitches up to sort the problem out and even that's quite a recent thing.
I live in a one bedroom flat, if some idiot wonders in looking to nick stuff I am going to thwack him with my cricket bat, simple as that. I would be too worried if I had a gun, if I shot him, I might end up killing him and I personally could not do that.
I am not saying you are wrong, far from it, in America your burglar will probably be armed himself and for that I understand the self defence bit.
We still have shooting clubs etc people shooting clay pigeons etc which whilst growing up in the countryside I heard this a lot, even done it myself (hence the reason I know I can't shoot for piss!)
I guess its just something I personally will never get used to, I mean we are having a knife epidemic at the moment, kids are taking knives out on the streets and stabbing anyone who could "look at them funny". I worry about these kids, this is how they think they can solve problems, the consequences have been devastating.
I get what you mean though, the USA is slightly bigger (understatement!) than England and things are a heck of a lot easier to to smuggle in, getting hold of them even more so. Do you think there is a solution to gun control at all?

Stupid idiots managed to claim sentences from Luke were attributable to Jesus whereas the same phrases in Matthew were considered not attributable!

Joe
I don't know who taught you that just simply repeating "The Qu'ran is real, so is Allah" is anywhere near fact, how can it be?
No, fact would be if you looked at the Qu'ran and found out your holy prophet Mohammed was a paedophile because he married a 6 year old and shagged her at 9 years old! BRAVO!
I keep hearing that Islam is a religion of peace but then I had a quick look at this
http://skepticsannotatedbible.com/quran/cruelty/long.html
It seems your religion is a bit anti non believers, why is that? What are you guys so scared of? Is your religion that frail you have to offer such violence?
Hang on, you mentioned that the Qu'ran has science in it, you don't happen to mean this do you?

27:61 Is not He...Who made the earth a fixed abode
I don't think so... as far as I know the Earth is in constant movement, The rotational speed of the Earth at the equator is about 1,038 miles per hour.
41:12 Then He ordained them seven heavens in two Days and inspired in each heaven its mandate; and We decked the nether heaven with lamps,
Hmmm again, I think 21st century has got the drop on you, stars are not "lamps" by any stretch of the imagination. They are more like big exploding balls of gas, mostly hydrogen and helium - hows that?
You guys don't seem to like women very much do you?
http://skepticsannotatedbible.com/quran/women/long.html
I particularly like this one
2:223 Your women are a tilth for you (to cultivate) so go to your tilth as ye will,
That's it, have sex whenever you like, regardless of what they want, they are not important! If she does not want sex, well, go for it anyway you big stallion!
You said you went off to pray earlier, I do hope you didn't touch any women on your way, heaven forbid!
5:6 O ye who believe! When ye rise up for prayer, wash you faces, and your hands up to the elbows, and lightly rub your heads and (wash) your feet up to the ankles. And if ye are unclean, purify yourselves. And if ye are sick or on a journey, or one of you cometh from the closet, or ye have had contact with women, and ye find not water, then go to clean, high ground and rub your faces and your hands with some of it.
Make VERY sure you don't "cometh out of the closet" or you will certainly be killed! :)
I did a bit of checking on what happens to apostates, it all sounds a bit nasty - like once you join the club your are in it forever OR ELSE!
http://www.answering-islam.org/Silas/apostasy.htm
I get the feeling that Islam is not all it is cracked up to be, its violent, its horrible to women and above all it knows bollocks about science.
Judging from your insistence that Harun Yahya knows what he is talking about, despite evidence provided to the contrary, I doubt anything will get through to you as per usual. You may even write back, say a few things, possibly in capitals and then imagine that you "trumped" me.

I am very confused as to how you could possibly be praising this place, I think it epitomises just how wrong and deeply disgusting it is to lie to people in such a manner. These people cannot be cured by some magic rock, life simply doesn't work that way.
As Tyler said, the 67 supposedly registered miracles since 1860 is a bit of a crap set of statistics isn't it? The thousands upon thousands that visit the place to be lied to after a promise of a chance of a cure makes me want to vomit.
What irritates me the most is why it took a financial scandal to get people to stay away from the place and not some exceptionally duplicitous and disgusting charlatanism of the people who promote this horrible lie.
I would give it some serious thought there Fides, I don't think your reasoning holds much weight to it in face of the facts that show the place is a lie.

Clearmind,
READ for crying out do some bloody reading!
Stalin did not do the things he did in the name of Atheism!
Sam Harris was right, no matter how much you tell people till you are an amusing shade of puce that people like Stalin did what they did because they were evil manipulative bastards, people like clearmind will still trot out this crap!
I quote Christopher Hitchens just for the sheer plain hell of it:
For hundreds of years, millions of Russians had been told the head of state should be a man close to God, the czar, who was head of the Russian Orthodox Church as well as absolute despot. If you're Stalin, you shouldn't be in the dictatorship business if you can't exploit the pool of servility and docility that's ready-made for you
Clearmind dribbled:
Atheism is a delusion that is based on not to believe in God.
Lets just change that shall we
Christianity and its multiple denominations is a delusion that is based on the belief that some Jewish cosmic zombie can make you believe you can live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him that you accept him as your master so he can remove and evil from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree.
Clearmind I base my observations on reality, not the invisible, there is a clear difference between the two that you have a sufficient blindness to.
You logic is nothing, you claim to have a better understanding of Life, the universe and everything based on a Bronze age myth. You claim to know better than experts like Einstein, Hawking and Dawkins about subjects which you know so little about its laughable.
You have been shown repeatedly where your logic fails and have been given careful and easy to understand explanations for many subjects. Experts from all fields of study have given up their valuable time to explain things to you.
Have you read and understood any of it? NO you bloody well haven't.
You keep trotting out garbage like this
Philip so you notice that evolution has got less and less chance against MY LOGIC.
I dont know how many times you have been told that evolution by natural selection is not chance and that it is the mutations in the gene codes that are the only random change. If you had actually bothered to just once in your life accept that not all mutations are for the best and that it is only those with the genes favourable to the conditions set against them that will survive I wouldn't be so disappointed with you.
You churn out drivel like the above as if you have access to some amazing bits of information us mere mortals could not possibly grasp. It all sounds very exciting until when we ask for the evidence for this you keep spouting out the same thing but demanding that it is logical to do so.
You have no proof for your fantasies, they are just true to you because you want them to be, not because they are in fact provable and truthful.
You have 1 last post to make a real difference, I gave you 3, you have squandered 2, this last one had better be an apology for your reluctance to accept that you are wrong and that your logic is actually floored.
Either that or you provide the best evidence that would convince the experts on this site that you know what you are talking about which backs up your highly improbable and arrogant claims.
I am fed up with reading your posts when they serve no purpose but to tell people that they are wrong and yet never explain exactly HOW they are wrong.

It goes to show just how much you do not know about me or what atheism actually is, you haven't got a clue.
How many times do you need telling that none of us use atheism as you do your faith?
Do you do things BECAUSE of your faith, that it will put in God's good books - yes I bet serious money that you do! I bet you turn to the Bible to justify your actions sometimes, don't you.
I bet any Muslim can pick up the Koran and justify killing people should they so wish.
I bet Jews could turn to the Torah and justify cutting the tip of small children's genitals, which they do.
Do I do things in the name of atheism - no I do not! Atheism is not a religion, there is nothing to base your lack of faith on is there? Don't be sodding stupid, if I was to take up drugs or beat women up it would be because I am a drug taking, violent bastard who deserves to be locked up - Richard Dawkins and the God Delusion or Sam Harris and The End of Faith would have not have made a jot of difference in influencing my actions!
Please stop treating atheism as a faith, you could not be more wrong if you wanted to be.
That's one email down, you have 2 left to convince me not to troll you.

My guess is someone lied!
I think religion just might have had something to do with it, but that's just me jumping to massive conclusions! :)

Do you have trouble with answering questions in a straightforward manner?
When confronted with even the simplest of tasks you start typing out meaningless conversations and resorting to incomprehensible drivel which is why you then get told to poshol v zhopu a lot.
If you would actually use the intellect that you so proudly announce to the world you have I would suggest using it to construct more meaningful sentences.
A lot of people have typed to you a multitude of times asking you very easy things for which they still do not have replies for. That is why people, myself included, are getting annoyed with you. I have had some magnificent conversations with religious people on this site which provoked good discussion, this is what this site is all about.
You have not learned a thing since you started posted on here and you continue to type utter gibberish whenever anyone engages you in conversation. You quote from the same websites all the time and every time we have dealt with those assertions easily but you refuse to listen, claiming you have better knowledge which you then refuse to produce.
You have 3 more goes at engaging people in honest discussion or its troll time yet again.
Decide now what it is going to be or discontinue posting because we are all getting very bored with your antics.

237. PLEASE WRITE IN SUPPORT OF PZ MYERS
Comment #208467 by Philip1978 on July 11, 2008 at 1:06 am
Here is a copy of my email I have just sent
Dear Sir
I am sending you this email in support of Professor PZ Myers as a result of the aggressive actions over the Eucharist Wafer fiasco that recently occurred in Florida.
Catholic League president Bill Donohue has called for a massive witch hunt in order to get Professor Myers fired from his position at Minnesota University and I would like to voice my opinion that Mr Donohue's unfounded views be ignored completely.
His main reason for this is "It is hard to think of anything more vile than to intentionally desecrate the Body of Christ." after a recent article posted by Professor Myers on his blog site in which he joked about what he would do to a wafer, making his point that it is just a wafer and not the Body of Christ as Mr Donohue claims.
Unless Mr Donohue can in fact provide irrefutable evidence that any normal wafer that has supposedly been blessed by a holy man of the Catholic religion then actually becomes the undisputed body of Jesus Christ I suggest that he call of this hunt and leave Professor Myers alone. Whilst Mr Donohue is entitled to his highly improbable claims, so is Professor Myers entitled to voice his opinion on the matter without resorting to hate speach, which I have seen no evidence of so far.
It has also come to my attention that Professor Myers has received hate mail and death threats over this, something which will only be stirred up more by the antics of Mr Donohue if he is allowed to continue provoking such needless behaviour.
I do hope this matter can be sorted out calmly and without any more need to provoke such angry reactions, there is no need for it whatsoever.
Yours Sincerely
Philip Priestley,
Maidenhead, Berkshire, England
I do hope this helps, I have nothing but contempt for the actions of Bill Donohue

Tyler,
Your argument is rendered invalid by the mere fact that none of that, especially the words you wanted to highlight as being important, was in capital letters. You only used italics and they are subordinate to that of BIG CAPITAL LETTERS IN BOLD! :)

Its so funny, its like talking to a person who is convinced that unicorns exist because they have read the King James Bible!
"UNICORNS EXIST!"
" I think you will find it is a mistranslation of the word oxen and cattle etc"
"IT SAYS IT IN THE KING JAMES BIBLE, ITS TRUE, WHY CAN'T YOU SEE IT!"
"That's because it is a mistranslation, I can even show you the correct Hebrew if you like, its not a problem"
"YOU WILL ALL PAY, FOR I KNOW THE TRUTH BECAUSE THE KING JAMES BIBLE TELLS ME UNICORNS EXIST. YOU ARE ALL SO BLIND, LOOK IT SAYS SO IN PLAIN ENGLISH, U-N-I-C-O-R-N! THIS PROVES IT, IT IS SO EASY!"
" You are obviously not willing to listen are you?"
"THE KING JAMES BIBLE IS NEVER WRONG, YOU ARE ALL BLIND, THE UNICORNS ARE THERE, THEY HAVE TO BE THERE, SERIOUSLY WAKE UP AND SMELL THE COFFEE!"
"You are a looney!"

I say you have one more chance to answer questions properly or its time to troll your disgusting, bigoted self off this site.
I am sick of hearing about how you want to abuse the world, especially children, with your arrogant,dangerous, fear and misery ridden religion.
You have no basis for it at all, just bluster and capital letters to cover up the fact you know nothing of the real world.
Shut up or go away!

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 dare you!

Do I sound like I am running scared from a book which has been shown to be full of holes and mistakes - it shows the author has not got a clue about what he is talking about and has made a mistake!
I am not scared of you, the idiot that made that awful book, allah, yahweh, baal, odin, thor - no deity scares me, no religion scares me - I will not be frightened into believing anything.
What do I have to do to get that through to you?

What are you so scared of? Really, is Allah going to punish you unless you frantically, in capital letters, inflict your religion upon us?
I am not scared of your god, I am not impressed by your god - I really do not care how much you rant, it will not change my mind one bit!
You have not produced any evidence, you have just bawled like some petulant child who wants his own way - when you stop doing that and want a discussion, the experts are here ready and waiting to answer questions.

Clearmind,
Just so you understand, poshol na khui! zaebal tovarishch!
You repeatedly turn up, repeatedly mess things up, despite repeated help and advice on how to understand evolution better. You ignore it by making grandiose assumptions which you can only back up from quote mining other deluded idiots who have piggy-backed onto the bandwagon by taking science and wanting to inject your version of god into it.
I could not care less if you think I am a piranha or any of the other ridiculous things you have compared me and others to - if you cannot take good, educated, expert advice, then what hope is there for 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?
