Odin doesn't rape your wife.

Zeus is a cool guy, but no bro.

Moms spaghetti
Let's all be honest with ourselves. If we die and wake up in heaven with Peter staring back at us, first thing we're thinking is "fuck me".

"flaming nipple chops"-Your host, the man they call Ghost.

To say, 'nothing is true', is to realize that the foundations of society are fragile, and that we must be the shepherds of our own civilization. To say, 'everything is permitted', is to understand that we are the architects of our actions, and that we must live with their consequences, whether glorious or tragic.
*Cringes*

Besides, God knows everything, we don't.
There wasn't anything cringey about it.

Besides, God isn't real, we are.
This might be shocking news to you, but humans have these things called opinions.

and, shockingly enough, opinions can be wrong.

the idea that people worship a levantine war god as the singular, all-powerful deity is laughable. its almost as funny as someone who still sacrifices goats to apollo.

i mean, you could still do it. im sure you'd be rewarded with his favor, being the first person in like, forever to even acknowledge him. he'll probably send a plague after your enemies or teach you how to play good music or something

im coming at this from a historical perspective. yahweh was a minor god who stood as the canaanite answer to chemosh, a war god; yahweh was a legendary figure who led heavenly forces against the enemies of israel/canaan. eventually, he was seen as a deity. the yahwists worked for a long time to push him to the forefront of the canaanite religion, eventually pushing for a monotheistic tradition (much like the amarna revolution).

i dont think there is any logical reason to believe that yahweh, the god of christians, exists in the capacity that they believe he does. i dont believe he exists at all, but when you consider the history of yahwism, its pretty fucking obvious that the story has changed wildly over time. that isnt consistent with the popular rhetoric about "god."

I don't take it you have some sort of source or reference that I could look at to judge the accuracy of what you're saying? It's not really that easy to provide a counterargument when I lack the references you must have.

♥ stephen fry

wasn't he supposed to have a debate with russell brand over this very subject

I'd love to see Fry argue with Russel Brand, people seem to think he's some kind of revolutionary Jesus figure.
