Reality doesn't require indoctrination, it's self evident. No ancient myth required.

●▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ஜ۩۞۩ஜ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬●

If you think the invisible and the non-existent don't look very much alike, then you are bat shit crazy religious and can proselytise your make believe nonsense elsewhere.

●▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬๑۩۩๑▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬●

Being heretical is the initial sign that one is lucid of mind. Faith is the refusal to be lucid of mind. It is the desire of the faithful to feed their delusion and defend it from reason.

●▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬๑۩۩๑▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬●

This channel is for the victims of ignorance, Theist dishonesty, religious dogma and bronze age superstition.

About Me:
 
It is my disdain for religion that gives me the impetus to denounce all forms of delusion and self-denial of reality. I refuse to be impotent while frightened, indoctrinated people subvert the world in the name of their chosen aberration. The war on science and knowledge by these superstitious dogmatic halfwits is in stark contrast to their promotion of gullibility and wishful thinking. It is my mission to ridicule these fools into removing their god goggles just enough to glimpse what all atheists see clearly: the emperor has no clothes.

When you accept magical thinking as a baseline for your view of reality (god goggles), you are especially susceptible to any charlatan's lie. Faith is gullibility and ignorance, void of scientific evidence and analytical thinking. Think for yourself or someone will do it for you, to your peril and their benefit. Unfortunately this is not possible for some who are willfully delusional, indoctrinated, or dimwitted. To those I give my condolences.

It is the invalid and the dolt that needs their crutch to stand, and not the sound of mind. It is these pathetic, feeble cowards, who cling to false hope and contrived gods to comfort and shield them from their fears, imagined or real. Religious folks are the sewers of deceit. They infect children, the simple minded, and the gullible, instructing them to follow along with them as delusional slaves, for the will of their mythical masters from primitive cultures centuries past.

Christians proselytise their delusion by spreading fear, ignorance, intolerance, bigotry and cruelty in the name of a loving Jesus. Christianity revels in ignorance, and names it virtuous faith. It wallows in self-righteousness and calls it humility. These deluded imbeciles actually believe it is morally acceptable to lie to children by telling them that nonsense is divine truth, but only for the Jesus and Yahweh fairy tale, and not any other. All other gods are myths; only theirs is real. The simple fact that every religion must inculcate the young with its doctrine, principles, or ideology is clear evidence that this very dogma cannot be taken on its apparent value. It is therefore a false belief. If the theist's tenets were true, children would not require indoctrination. They would discover said truth the same way they discover reality for themselves: human interaction and investigation of our world through education, both self-learned and scholastically taught. Education is not indoctrination so no brainwashing is required.

All religions are incredibly dishonest and their proponents are deceivers. An honest theist does not, and has not ever, existed. The religious lie both intentionally and unintentionally. To lie to oneself is the foundation of religious blind faith. Faith is the unwarranted respectful label for wishful thinking. It is false hope for the simple-minded and gullible. If the only way you can accept an assertion is on faith, then you are conceding that it can't be taken on its own merits.
This is precisely why theists misinterpret words like fact, truth and faith, as though they were the same thing. The egregious statements concerning "god's truth" uttered by all believers are anything but. When these ignorant fools claim to know that their holy books are the inerrant word of a god, and are true, or fact, they have crossed the line between ignorance and dishonesty, faith and fact. Therefore, the religious are irredeemably dishonest. Anyone who claims and teaches others that an assertion is true and factual without empirical evidence to back up that assertion is, by definition, lying. Liars by definition are deceivers! Having "good intentions" is not a valid excuse for stating blatant falsehoods.

The futility of debating imbecilic theists lies in the fact that religious belief and faith are both unintelligible propositions. Ideas must be distinct before reason can act upon them. Make believe is for children, and should be relegated to the playground and not adult intellectual discourse. There is no evidence of any deist god, let alone a theistic one, so refuting any holy book or the insane religion derived therefrom would be as constructive as debunking the tale of Jack and the beanstalk. I prefer ridicule. What is there to debate? Theists are a joke and should be addressed accordingly. ©

It is most unfortunate to hear that you have broken your ankle. Perhaps you will think twice before kicking over church marquees in the future.

It's undeniable that the Right-Wing Abrahamics are the people with strong totalitarian religiosity and therefore are a direct threat to world peace. However, the millions of these haplessly, simple minded conservatives (who are not in an asylum) vote and donate funding to those politicians who share their vile immorality, callow fantasy and mental inability. The Abrahamic followers who are more moderate in their delusion are not exempt from religious atrocities. No absolution is warranted for those who shield others in the faith. These moderate types support the foundation and the protection from which the totalitarian types launch their attacks on humanity. The desert god they ALL worship is a totalitarian monster as documented in their holy books. Not all make believe is dangerous but the trinity of divine stupidity is without question the most intolerant, despicable and dangerous cults that have ever been conceived by mankind.

There will always be atrocities done in the name of 'God' by these folks as long as their god remains real to them. You can't control what is protected by law. We have secular laws in much of the worlds governments to restrict the Abrahamics actions but we cannot stop their protected religious intolerance and vile immorality. Do you think George W. Bush, congress and the American people would have been so enthused about sending American troops off to war if they had known that the soldiers that would surely be killed would not be going to heaven?

"have no qualms with people believing in religious myth as long as it does not interfere with politics or the rights of other cults."

I'm not naive. I know that delusional thinking is detrimental not only to the person, but to those around them. However, those delusional people who are harmless don't need that much security and can wander the grounds of the asylum, talking to imaginary people, with little supervision. It's the ones who are violent and destructive who need policing. The pagans are just as delusional but no one talks about them since they are innocuous and keep their crap within their clique. Out of the abes, it's the RWs who are the violent, destructive ones. People with strong totalitarian religiosity (who aren't already IN an asylum) tend to have low-IQs and are conservative.

Hello SCOTT!
somethingdiffereable (1 day ago)
Hey Scott, just dropped by to say hello. I've been in the hospital for the past few weeks and have had very little internet access. Nothing serious, just a broken ankle with some tendon and ligament issues. Almost 100% recovered at this point in time. Talk to you soon!
