One thing that does bother me about Christianity however, is that it so widely accepted as the norm and that if you are a non-believer, many people see you as some type of deviant who needs help.
of course evolutionists are exactly the same...
they defend their precious theory as if it is a fact...
both groups however are religions as far as i'm concearned and i'm not a big fan of either group, but i have freinds who are both...
and at the end of the day it's no different to sexuall orientation or race...
it doesn't matter... it's just a shame that everyone is condescending to anyone believes differently... i think it's a totally weak thing...
what ever you believe is circumstansial...
anyone who thinks any less of someone for what they beleive is asshole who is irretrevably stupid... and reeched the depths of uninlightenment...
don't get me wrong... some beliefs are totally lame...
i just read about a mentally handicap girl in Iran who was sold by her mother as a sex slave, and ended up being bought and sold, to several sick fucks, one of which got her pregnant at the age of nine, a crime for which she was flogged, passed down the line some more and now has been captured for more flogging and execution for her crimes against her religion (and just to remind, against her will)...
now there's a political-religeous system no one has to respect... and at the risk of sounding 'politacally incorrect... i'd like to say those people are fucked!!!

oh, and if i were god... i'd pretty much leave everyone to their thing, otherwise you'd just have a world of usless political slaves who suck up to you and acheive nothing... i mean you could duck your head down and say "oh by the way i exist"
then people would write it down, and pass that message on to generation after generation until people would say "if he really wants us to beleive in him he should duck his head down and say "oh by the way i exist"... then what? people would write it down, and pass that message on to generation after generation until people would say "if he really wants us to beleive in him he should duck his head down and say "oh by the way i exist"... so to proove my existance i'd have to duck my head down every 20-30 bloody years (which in mortal terms would be the equivilant of every 20-30 seconds...), and then i'd be a slave to them...
me: "oh by the way i exist everyone"
them: "cool... can we have stuff"
I'd be their fucking slave!!! and i'm suppose to be god...
so nope! if there is a god, he's doing exactly the right thing by not getting involved... (not to say that there wouldn't be the odd zapping of assholes if i were up there... but then that's why no-ones offered me the job - not buhdist enough i guess)...
and if there isn't a god, he's doing an even better job getting all these people to worship him, when he can't even be bothered existing... now that's the australian way...
just i thought...
