Religion...

the Epicurus quote is one of most flawed pieces of logic ever, as it presupposes how God should behave in the confinement and interpretation of human behavior.

“You think when you die, you go to heaven? You come to US.”

Life sucks, then you die, then you're turned into a dwarf.
(That is funny MC.)

I enjoy the quote below which I can find no flaw.

"The truth is that the greatest enemies of the doctrines of Jesus are those calling themselves the expositors of them, who have perverted them for the structure of a system of fancy absolutely incomprehensible, and without any foundation in His genuine words. 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 classified with the fable of the generation of Minerva in the brain of Jupiter. But we may hope that the dawn of reason and freedom of thought in these United States will do away with all this artificial scaffolding, and restore to us the primitive and genuine doctrines of the most venerated reformer of human creatures."

I was just talking with God the other day and the divine being said to me ... "DD you need to spend more time moderating and less time working."

I explained to him that I already spend WAY too much time here as it is so he told me "then my son go forth and copulate and post the occasional review to demonstrate what is expected ... oh and be honest and truthful in your reviews and make sure that you fill in ALL of the required areas and provide details linked to the activities that you list because verily if you do not your review will not be given credit."

He also told me to "stop being so damn mean!" but I can't share with you what I told him because I'm still recovering from that fucking lightning strike! ... BUT I did say I'd work on it

I now realize the flaw of my poll. I neglected those who worship the Devil. My apologies!


Funny... God has the Bible, Torah and Quran but we never here the Devil's side of the story. Slayer at the gym for me for repentance.

I would argue it presupposes how God should behave within the confines of behavior, human or otherwise. But if you wish to limit it to the confines of human behavior, ok. Then, however, it only goes to also point out the hypocrisy of God.

I don't think God would require anyone to contribute anything. But i do think he would not look too kindly on those who would sit back in their own greed and allow people to starve, while also insulting them at the same time.
