It would be easier if the religious would just admit the one fact the lies at the root of their belief system – “facts don’t matter”. Once we shove that sideways down their craw, unravelling the rest of the bullshite will quickly unravel. A good place to start that sort of discussion is with AntiCitizen X and his dissection of christian apologetics.
Enjoy :)
I love cartoons, and Discern4 has come though and delivered unto me what I love…it must have been an act of god. :>
Riiiiiiiiiight.
Happy Bunny Day or Happy Easter as the deluded like to say. :) This merry bunny day, we have a short, but telling expose on how much bullcookery you have to swallow if you really want to get down the Jebus and hang out with him on Easter.
God is quite the bag of dicks, it would seem.
Shocking.
There has been a poster knocking around that illustrates every contradiction (with footnotes) in the bible. I’m posting it here as a resource so not only can we tell the deluded that their magic book is inconsistent, we can show them how inconsistent it actually is. Aaaaaand it is a pretty picture to boot.

Superstition, and it’s ugly codified twin brother religion, rely on the suspension of one’s critical faculties. When someone is going on about how jeebus talks to them or they are feeling the power of god or <insert prurience for inane godbaggy here> or whatever, the topics covered in this video by Qualia Soup come to mind. Confirmation bias, what we all struggle against (or should be struggling against) robs us of the capacity to evaluate situations and events around us in a reasonable way.
You may be “good with god” but you look pretty stupid to the rest of us because we lack the cognitive barriers of faith you’ve erected against reason (aka the world as it is, as opposed to how we want it to be.)
Anyways, QS says this much better than I, thus on to the video!
There is a horrendous series of advertisements for the moron mormon church which centres around the ‘appeal to authority’ fallacy. The ads each feature one person (that’s one person for each ad, in case I’m confusin’ ya) and this person goes on and on about how they are a wonderful person. At the end of the ad, the featured person finishes by affirming ‘I’m a mormon.” Of course, nothing in the first part of the ad has much to do with actual mormonism. That would defeat the purpose. The ads are supposed to gloss over all the ugly bits (and there are mountains of ugly bits), build up a bunch of warm fuzzies, then sneakily latch the happy feelings onto their religion. It isn’t a new tactic. Stealing credit from others is a solid ingredient for the foundation of any strong religion.
Enter the latest episode of ‘Way of the Mister’. This series is an offshoot of the wonderfully fantastic web show ‘Mr.Deity”. If you haven’t checked it out yet, I strongly recommend you remedy the situation as soon as possible (YouTube channel, Website).
This video is all about those mountains of ugly bits I mentioned earlier and it brilliantly highlights everything the church of LSD LDS doesn’t want you to know.
All former believers, whatever religion you were freed from, are more than welcome to put their own “I no longer believe” lines in the comments.
I’d like to make the Disservice your point of contact for identifying and mercilessly mocking all of the whigged-out religious tom-foolery that exists out there. The idea that a cloth has the power to cure cancer is ludicrous on its own. Worse, mated with crass commercialism that some churches have instituted, make the whole church based prayer – cloth industry morally repugnant on just about every level.
Profiting by selling false hope to dying people is just wrong. Just another shining example of what jebus can do for you…for a price. Yet another fine example of unethical behaviour on the part of some christian churches.
