The Curse of the Soul

By John Drover ~

So humans are the ONLY ones with souls. If Christianity is true, then humans are the only ones CURSED with souls. Let me explain:

To be very generous, let's say 10% of all of humanity make it to heaven, (only 1/3 of the world human population are christians, and out of those, only a small percentage will be in the correct denomination and live up to the requirements to get into heaven, so 10% overall is VERY generous) so the other 90% goes to a FIERY HELL TO BE TORTURED FOR ETERNITY - that's right, for EVER, AND EVER AND EVER AND EVER AND EVER, in CONSTANT PAIN AND MISERY FOREVER!!!!!

Yet, every dog, every cat, every worm, every bird, every shark, every snail, every mosquito, every rattlesnake, every orangutan, every honey badger of South Africa (considered the meanest land animal) and even every piranha (considered the meanest fish) will NEVER have to go to Hell. They all get blessed with the avoidance of ETERNAL torture after they die, and have the privilege of entering the state that all living creatures experience for billions and billions of years before birth ... the calmness of unconsciousness. Please tell me HOW being a human and having a soul is a "good" thing? Think about it, the worst that can happen after death for a snail is the peacefulness of being unconscious. And the best that can happen is the peacefulness of being unconscious. As a human, the worst that can happen is being one of the 90% that get tortured for ETERNITY in HELL, yet the best that can happen is being one of the 10% that live an ETERNITY in servitude to a jealous, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic dictator.

Personally, I envy the snail.

Celebrating life beyond belief

From The Australian : THEY came from everywhere, the true unbelievers: from Perth, Sydney, Brisbane, the Sunshine Coast, New Zealand and beyond. There was a honeymooning couple from North Carolina who had met on an atheist internet site; and two friends from rural NSW, both extroverted women who had been raised Catholics and were now seriously annoyed with it.  Author Richard Dawkins had a few words to say about the sanctification of Mary MacKillop. An Iranian man who had seen unspeakable things done in the name of religion asked a speaker, philosopher A.C. Grayling, how it was that humans could be so kind and yet torture and kill each other. An Iraqi who migrated to Australia 40 years ago gave $4000 of his money to support this unusual gathering: the 2010 Global Atheists Convention, held in Melbourne at the weekend. The idea of atheists congregating seems counterintuitive. After all, they are defined only by an absence, a belief they don't have. But congreg...

Suffering For The Will Of god

By TheRedneckProfessor ~ I magine, if you will, a seedy hotel room in the dirty part of town.    In the corner there is a small table, the drawer of which contains a Gideon bible.    A garishly ornate lamp casts a pool of dingy yellow light upon the wall behind it, covered in peeling wallpaper, the fading floral pattern now more a study in browns after decades of dust and cigarette haze.    In this room we have a 10-year-old girl: a singular expression of innocence and unfettered hope.    Beside her, on the bed, is a 39-year-old pedophile rapist: the epitome of sociopathic sadism, a monster.    He is neither her father, nor her uncle.    He is, in fact, no one with whom this little girl should be alone.   We know what is going to happen in this room; there is no need to provide further detail.   This is the essence of meaningless, purposeless, gratuitous suffering inflicted upon innocence, examples of which can be s...

Are You an Atheist Success Story?

By Avangelism Project ~ F acts don’t spread. Stories do. It’s how (good) marketing works, it’s how elections (unfortunately) are won and lost, and it’s how (all) religion spreads. Proselytization isn’t accomplished with better arguments. It’s accomplished with better stories and it’s time we atheists catch up. It’s not like atheists don’t love a good story. Head over to the atheist reddit and take a look if you don’t believe me. We’re all over stories painting religion in a bad light. Nothing wrong with that, but we ignore the value of a story or a testimonial when we’re dealing with Christians. We can’t be so proud to argue the semantics of whether atheism is a belief or deconversion is actually proselytization. When we become more interested in defining our terms than in affecting people, we’ve relegated ourselves to irrelevance preferring to be smug in our minority, but semantically correct, nonbelief. Results Determine Reality The thing is when we opt to bury our ...

Paul the Apostle: The Original "I" Connoisseur

I magine for a moment scrolling through your favorite social media feed, only to find that every post is a selfie—with a divine twist. That’s Paul the Apostle for you. His letters, replete with the singularly majestic "I," might just qualify him as the original poster obsessed with himself, albeit with heavenly credentials. The Many, Many “I’s” If Paul were alive today, his Instagram bio might read, “I, me, and I—delivering divine revelations one letter at a time.” A quick glance at his epistles reveals an unabashed love affair with the first-person singular. In a literary world where collaborative spirit is often celebrated, Paul’s incessant “I received,” “I saw,” and “I declare” almost reads like the ancient equivalent of a Twitter feed completely dominated by his own thoughts. Is it narcissism, or is it just really, really, really confident storytelling? One might joke that if self-absorption were a sport, Paul would have been the undefeated champion of the apostolic ga...
