Welcome to the official ZJW kick off post. Today, along with the classical musical interlude we shall celebrate the banal excellence of christianity in all of its delusional grandeur.
Of course, if you are part of the underclass female gender, your pretty lady brain might not be able to handle the video and all of the manly wisdom on display.
One of the reasons that religion still clings to humanity, not unlike a pesky fungal infection, is that parents teach their children the religion they themselves have been brainwashed with. The true believers really do not have an answer to the problem posed as thus: If you were born in India you would here arguing for Vishnu and the primacy of the Hindu Pantheon of Gods as a opposed to Zombie jesus and talking snakes. So the determining factor of the ‘one true faith’ has much to do with where you were born as opposed to which mythology you intend to internalize.
Feckless claims of the ‘one true religion’ aside, the real problem is that children do not have a chance to gain their critical faculties before being dogmatically ‘educated’ into a particular delusional sect of belief. The ritual poisoning of children’s minds needs to stop as it can have quite disastrous consequences.
We can safely file this entire shit for brains episode under “how religion makes you stupid and how it makes you do stupid things” or even “religious belief = full on pants-on-head retarded”.
Islam the aptly named religion of peace is responsible for the recent riots and the killing of (more) innocents in Afghanistan. Of course we almost instantly know when Westerners are killed in Afghanistan. Contrast this story with the media coverage of the native people are slaughtered every day in Afghanistan if when they are counted. Pro-innocent civilian death concerns aside, the general assholery of war seems to have gone exponential as of late. People are losing their minds because some crack pot christian god-bag in Florida burnt a Qur’an or two. It is therefore logical to riot and kill people because you burnt their magic book. (!)
“At least nine people were killed and dozens more injured Saturday after protests took a violent turn in Kandahar city, the office of the Kandahar government said.
On Friday, Afghans protesting the Qur’an burning stormed a United Nations compound in northern Afghanistan, killing seven foreigners.”
Unbelievable. People have to die because the extra-deluded are getting their shit in a twist over the actions of a christian
Captain deluded to the resuce!
fundy-loon in Florida. It gets better though. Pastor Dense as fracking Neutron-star has the gall to say this:
Wayne Sapp, a pastor at the church, called the events “tragic” but said he did not regret the actions of his church.
“I in no way feel like our church is responsible for what happened,” Sapp said in a telephone interview on Friday.”
This epitome of douchatude does not “feel like our church is responsible” for what happened. Out here in rational land the stupid meters just fused solid. As a self appointed spokesperson of the atheist rationalist community let me spell this gordion knot of a problem out for you.
Many muslims are batshite-crazy deluded over their magic book. Given previous incidents (cartoons etc) it takes little in the way of worldly knowledge to guess what would happen if you well..oh say..publicize and then burn their mystical tome of puerile foolishness religious righteousness. I may have spoken too soon, perhaps this wisdom of the ages does escape the religious as they do have the tendancy to avoid facts when dealing with reality. How many other groups of people that, with the fracking Everest sized mountain of evidence for evolution crammed sideways up their ass, can still bray about the veracity of the biblical flood and the other assorted creationist mind-farts they purport to believe in?
I’ll be charitable and say only a select portion of christians are as ass-backwards as their Islamic counterparts. Don’t get too smug my christian friends, this slots you only milimeters above those with a profound belief in Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy.
So essentially, this is a story about two religiously addled groups who possess only the IQ necessary to breath and pray, insulting each other and seeing who wins the title for committing flossing-baby-out-of-your-teeth evil.
“An Associated Press photographer estimated the crowd at a few thousand and said demonstrators had smashed his camera and roughed up other journalists.
We want you to live in the Dark Ages too!
The desecration of the Qur’an has outraged millions of Muslims and others worldwide.”
The level of backward, barbaric, nuclear grade stupidity has also outraged the non addled worldwide.
The Roman Catholic Church is a corrupt institution that continues to support the rape and molestation of children on top of preaching bat-shite crazy baffle-gab to the deluded. Such malignant evil has no place in the 21st century.
The Westboro Baptist Church is the face of religion moderate religious folk prefer not to see. Intolerance, hate, and ignorance are all lauded values that are encouraged and propagated through this vile system. This clip is from 20/20 a mainstream documentary show in the USA. 20/20 gave a lot of air time to the fact that the WBC often protests at military funerals with its screeds celebrating the deaths of American soldiers. Patriotism is one angle that you can still attack religion in the US.
The clip is horrendous. The father and mother have the faces of the true believer (and they pass their hate on to their children), you can imagine they would be the ones happily torturing heretics and witches during the inquisition, or happily performing ethnic cleansing in the name of god. This is the twisted syrupy-sick hate filled face of Theocracy.
We at DWR stand and denounce this behaviour, in the name of decency, morality and rationality; concomitantly announcing to the world that Religion has no place in the 21st century.
Religion and the religious sure are zany. I’m glad people like Thunderf00t take the time to explain why.
The furour brought about by threatening to burn the koran has made it all the way to youtube as Thunderf00t has recently had to deal with assertions he is ‘bigot’ and endorses genocide for the nations of Islam. Of course, he was misconstrued and most likely misunderstood by the people in question. The key part of Thunderf00t’s message is simply this: We cannot take a step back from our rights to free speech (a cornerstone of civilized society)when they cause a violent reaction in the Islamic world. It is they who have the erroneous expectation that they have the right to apply their religious laws to the rest of the world. Once the centre of learning and advanced civilization the nations of Islam allowed the radical fundamentalists to plunge their world into a backward state of being resembling the Dark Ages (thank you christianity) of old.
When I rail against religion is precisely because of its threat to modernity and civilization. Religious thought is antithetical to most human rights, free speech and progress.
Thunderf00t comes to similar conclusions in his video, but of course multi modally thanks to the wonder known as youtube.
