@abeeftec vicarious redemption is disgusting, anyone who would accept a human sacrifice to void them of the responsibility of their own sins (sins according to you, correct?) is a wicked piece of shit

@abeeftec

You're talking about The Mafia Boss again. He can do whatever he pleases cuz he's The Mafia Boss, right? Sorry, no. If he actually existed (he doesn't), we'd have every right to look him in the eye and tell him he's an unmitigated asshole.

I use his line all the time where appropriate: no thinking person can say this is moral or it can't be believed by a thinking person. Christopher's use of the English language was a great work of art. I hope to even approach his mastery of the written and spoken word :D

so if Illuminati says that murder is cool, being a pervert is cool, selfishness is cool, love of money is cool, greed is okay & deception is an evolutionary virtue and they're just flukes of nature with no value greater than a rock... that's okay. But if you tell your kids that morality, self-sacrifice, a rational mind, humility, cause-effect reasoning & selflessness is good...CRUCIFY HIM!

holy shit, that man could really say it how it actually is, not how some would like us to believe it to be.

Rest in sweet nothingness Christopher Hitchens, as we all will do one day.

I always thought of atheists and pantheists (such as myself) as a tag team! Atheists are the ones with the big guns on the the back of the car like in Mario cart hahahaha :D

@ZariNation if you'll allow me to be assuming: you sound more like a pantheist. Which I think is a perfectly noble idea - complete atheist myself but I can understand it much better than these nonsense cults with "holy books" and "holy men".

All those who claim the bible is factual: really? Are you fucking serious? You ever study history and understand the concept of "sources" or "cross-examination"? Brain dead morons.

@abeeftec You'd be funny if you weren't so pathetic.

[YY4Me133]

Historical evidence for the "resurrection?" That's rich, considering it's impossible. But, never mind that, there's no evidence for a historical Jesus, man, god-man, or some weird combination. There is not one contemporaneous writing about Jesus during his supposed lifetime, including the books of the christian bible.

@IndigoVagrant No,nothing is false in the Bible. If there is you show me where it is.
