Peoples and nations still kill in the name of God/The Lord/Allah/Jehovah, etc.. This is as true today as it was in Biblical, Torah, and Qua'raanic times. Religion has always been used to deflect from the monstrosities that man inflicts upon his fellow man as God's will or Allah's will. Even today in the "21st century" over two thousand years since Jesus supposedly came to save people, the world is in much more peril. The God of The Holy Bible is indeed a psychopath and maniacal figure who commissions untold atrocities on a regular basis. It is no suprise to me that some followers who are inclined will take the teachings to the level of killing. The proof is right there in the book. The problems is that Christians don't read their own scriptures, nor do they read any of the Quaraanic scriptures to see the non-moral teachings for "the Chosen" to adhere to. Just in case you haven't noticed yet after over 5 years in Iraq this invasion/war is indeed a Holy War of mostly a Christian nation against a Moslem nation. God Kills. Since Jesus is God to many, Jesus Kills and since Allah is God to many, Allah kills. By the way, Jehovah kills too. Come on now start thinking. Use your evolutionary built neurons!!!!!!!

Playing gods advocate for a moment; These two would probably have committed the murders with or with out a belief in Yahweh. What ever reason why serial killers kill, they would still kill regardless of what justification they use or even if they have one at all. Serial killers are evil and like to kill. [end gods advocate] How ever many have killed in the name of one god or another and if they hadn't believed in that or any other god(s) they would not have killed. Once people put there morality in the hand of a god anything that they think that god wants become morally right.

i've got no problem with everyone saying "merry christmas" on christmas day.  however, they've turned it into an entire holiday season where it lasts a month or more.  in those situations it should be perfectly acceptable to say "happy holidays" or call it a…

My first funeral as an atheist

Posted by Two Cult Survivor on May 21, 2013 at 11:30am 0 Comments

I posted the bulk of this on another thread, but wanted to add some context separately.

I finally confronted my faith and embraced the fact of my atheism late last August, 2012. Days after I revealed my "epiphany" to a few friends who knew me from another message board, my sister died from Lou Gehrig's Disease (which pissed her off because she hated catching a disease from someone she never f---ed).

THAT was my sister, understand? She was a beautiful, life-loving, potty-mouthed…

Death of a family member

Posted by Larry Taylor on May 20, 2013 at 8:15pm 7 Comments

OK. I am venting. My mother died two weeks ago. She was a “god fearing christian.” Before her death she refused all medical treatment. She wanted to be left alone. She even refused to speak with my brother who is a methodist minister. He is a pip, let me tell you! I suspect she did not believe, but a woman born in her time could not and did not state her actual beliefs. This is the opening salvo to all christians; FUCK YOU! I had so many people come and tell…

Unbelievable!!!!!!!!

This probably should not have shocked me as much as it did (especially since I am in Texas). I actually thought my coworkers were playing a joke on me because they know I am an atheist. Sadly, this was no joke. This actually happened.

I work in a psychiatric hospital. The doctors who admit patients are general MDs. (Psychiatrists see patients after admission) Yesterday evening we received several calls from irate parents. A new doctor who was doing admissions yesterday actually…
