The Top 10 Reasons Why the Bible is Repulsive

This video should probably have been added to the first post in this Blog. I think it speaks for itself.
These are teh reasonsI could never even considder being a Christian. Many Christians I talk to say things like, "Well, that is in the Old Testament.", when asked about these verses, and some say that they are outdated. Well, I do things rigth, which means 100% to the best of my ability. So, being a Christian to me would HAVE to include these things as well, because they are in the Christian Bible for Christ sake! Picking and choosing which parts of the Bible I would want to follow wouldn't be Christianity, it would be Ericanity. And,if I were to creat Ericanity it would not in any way, shape, or form include the promoting of stoning of children to death for backtalking their parents! Yet this order from God, the order to kill children for disrespecting their parents, is in every bible in every Christion based church in the world, and that IS REPULSIVE.
If you didn't know this, you should read your Bible, it is the quickest and most convenient way to see that The Bible is a Fairy Tale.

LiveLeak.com - Penn & Teller : Bullshit! The Bible (Full Episode)

I know I saw this video years ago, and I'm sure that it subconsciously played a role in titling this blog so I figured I owed it to Penn and Teller to post this here. This is a good way to look at some of the bullshit in the bible with a chuckle. I hope you enjoy.

Two of my favorite one liners from this video are:

Smart people are very good at rationalizing things they came to believe from non smart reasons.

...we need more Atheists, and there's nothing will get you there faster than reading he damn Bible
Penn Jillette

Open-mindedness

Here we have a very good basic insight to critical thinking, open, and close-mindedness.

Genesis 2

Genesis 2:

2:2 And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made
** I am really surprised that God needed to rest. If he needed a rest, then there is a physical limitation limitation to how long he can work. I find this more comical than anything, after all, this IS God we are talking about.

And God Said:
2:17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
** However, Adam ate from the tree of knowledge and yet he didn't die. In fact he lived for another 930 years or so. I f I can geat from that tree and die....in 930 years, then sign me up! ounds like more of a reward than a punishment, however we have to keep in mind that in The Bible people seem to live longer than we have ever seen (Which is initself a totally different blog post).

2:19 And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof.
**So, Adam named ALL of the living creatures on Earth. Amazing! and, Impossible! Current estimates of the total number of species on Earth range from 5 to 30 million, of which, the 2005 Millennium Ecosystem Assessment notes approximately 2 million have been formally described.
But animals were not created instantaneously from the ground, but evolved over millions of years. And we still don't have names for all of them. Ten thousand new species of insects are discovered and named each year!

Genesis (2:4-25) "These are the generations"**The second creation account. Compare with Genesis 1:1-2:3 in which the order of events is entirely different.

 Had this book been written by the hand of man, guided by an all knowing God; we wiouldn't see these mistakes in Genesis. It would be a perfect account backed fully by science and reason.

See the magic

See the magic

When you look at different religions, they usually contain "magic." For example:

The Mormon religion contains the magical golden plates, the magical angel, the magical seer stones, the magical ascension of the plates into heaven, etc.

The Muslim faith contains the magical angel, the magical flying horse, the magical voices, the magical prophet, etc.

The Christian faith contains the magical insemination, the magical star, the magical dreams, the magical miracles, the magical resurrection, the magical ascension and so on.

The presence of "magic" is a clear marker for "imaginary." For example, how do we know that Santa is imaginary? Because (among other things) he has eight magical flying reindeer. How do we know that Jack and the Beanstalk is a fairy tale? Because (among other things) the story contains magical seeds. In the same way, how do we know that God is make believe? Because God is surrounded by magic.

Proof that A) prayer is as fake as 'God' OR B) You don't truly believe either

This simple test of prayer will prove one of the following:
A) Prayer is fake and has absolutely no effect on anything  physical, OR
B) That you, the reader of this post, do not truly believe.

Before we get to the test, let me me show why this will be evidence, according to the Bible.
Mark 11:24 says: "Therefore I tell you whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have recieved it and it will be yours."
Now, before doing the test, be sure that you believe as much as you possibly can. the usual Xian excuse of 'I wasn't worthy.' will be no excuse. Your perfect god said if you believe it ill happen, his words not mine.

Here is the simple test. You will need a penny, a pen or pencil, and a piece of paper. on the paper make 2 columns, name one heads and one tails. Each column should have 50 rows, to mark each flip of the coin.
Next, here is where your faith comes in, pray to God that the coin always land on heads. Now, flip the coin repeatedly, in attempt to reach 100 flips, all landing on heads. You will see that by the tenth flip, the coin has landed on tails several times. If not, continue. I, as a mere mortal human, already know for a fact that you will not reach 100 flips, all landing on heads.
Also, just for giggles, and to avoid any controversy, if you are uneducated enough to think you will get to 100, i beg of you to record your test, so you can prove your miraculous results to the world. Recording this would provide a great amount of evidence to freethinkers, Athiests, Agnostics, and many other non believers to prove your God. YOU could be the one to PROVE GOD EXISTS! Or, and this is much more likely, you may actually see the evidence that God is as fake as Santa Clause,The Easter Bunny, Ra, and an endless list of made up characters.

People ignore reality in order to 'believe' in god

  Wow! This amazed me when I saw this video. This is Christian Fundamentalism at it's best.  If this is not brainwashing I don't know what is! 

   First, I want to point out that the pictures of the 'Grandparents'. These people are trying to make these kids think that a belief in evolution would actually support that picture as being representative of scientific evolution. Grandparents!?! Really? If this is not brainwashing, then what is?

  I have to ask: Do YOU believe in this?

  I also have to point out the woman's comments at around 1:20 of the video, she says she believes this: because it's easier to believe this. Holy shit!! That is plainly stating she accepts ignorance over proven fact, simply because it is easier for her to understand! Religion breeds ignorance. Religion teaches ignorance. Religion preaches ignorance. If you don't believe me, you must believe the things in this video. If you believe the things in this video; that just makes you uneducated.   

Genesis 1:1 -

1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. 1:3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. **in a void space this is where a sun should come in creating the light that is the day, right? Of course it is. We all know day is caused by sun light and night is caused by the earth blocking the sun's light from us. This is basic common sense to humanity today.  There is evidence of this. 3rd graders know this. (evidence: yet another important word to keep in our pocket through this entire journey) Let's move on... 1:5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. ***Based on our knowledge and common sense we know, based on 1:5 that the Earth and sun are created by this time. 1:6 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. 1:7 And God made the firmament and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so. 1:8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day. **I can't help but to notice that God just created a second Heaven.  Gen 1:6-1:8 1:9 And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so. **There could be argument here that there is, in fact, water on other solar bodies, thus the water under heaven is not all in one place at all. 1:10 And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good. 1:11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so. 1:13 And the evening and the morning were the third day. 1:14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years: 1:16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also. **Uh Oh!! If these one of these lights is the sun....all that precedes is flawed!! Remember, there were fruit trees already. We all know fruit trees can not grow without photosynthesis. I'm holdiong my breath! If this is the sun, the bible is wrong!!! 1:17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth, **I THINK IT IS THE SUN!!! 1:18 And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good. 1:19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day. **We are a full 19 verses into the Bible, and the initial creation theory is debunked! With nothing more than common sense!! There were no trees before the sun. If you say there were, that is self-induced ignorance. This knowledge would have been known by a creator god, but not by a man on a rock 3500 years ago. Had god directed the hand of this man, the information would be accurate.Only makes sense, right? 1:21 And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. 1:23 And the evening and the morning were the fifth day. 1:25 And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good. 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. **God SAID let's make man in OUR image. There was another God present? It can't be part of the trinity, as that would be talking to himself. 1:31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day. *** god is omnipresent,being everywhere at every time, thus he would have, at creation, even been present today. He thinks this current worlds state of affairs is good? Just sayin'.

Eric, why do you say these things?

   I am very anti religious person because I know that people need to take responsibility for THEMSELVES. We need to face life on life's terms, with no belief that a cosmic zombie that died and came back to life can fix things for us. That is just an irresponsible thought. As Normal Bob Smith puts it, it is, in fact, a criminals wet dream. It is a downright perversion to think that an innocent person can take responsibility for your 'sins'. The Bible is a book written my man, who is imperfect, and often immoral. the Bible is written by imperfect men, also.  I have heard the mumbo jumbo that the Bible is written by the hand of man, which was directed by God. Most Xians agree, and this is a VERY IMPORTANT piece of information to carry in your pocket as you read this blog, because if god is perfect, and all knowing, and the Bible is his message to us; it only makes sense that the Bible would be free of interpretation, plain and simply matter of fact. It's 'truths' would be obvious and non deniable. It would be written to make God just as appearant as if he were to part the clouds each day and say 'Goodmorning' to me as I was headed out to go to work. Yet it is not written this way. The bible is nothing more than 3,500 year old snake oil
   Let me set some expectations on this blog. I am making a point here, not taking you to the Doctor for a tune up on your self confidence, you may get offended here, but you will be offended by reality hitting you in the face. Reality dissolving your deluded thoughts that there is a sky fairy waiting for you with gold laden streets. I may come off as many of the following: an ass hole, a retard, a moron, a heretic (This one I take proudly, Thank you!), a devil worshipper (Pretty silly and ignorant of you top call me this one. Remember, I said I was an Atheist. Carry a dictionary through this blog too, if you need to) , and a host of other things.
  I welcome ALL comments, however, please keep the following in mind:

• I will be respectful to all PEOPLE, but maybe not your thoughts, after all the point of this blog is show reality. If I let you remain ignorant to reality, reveling in your self-indulged ignorance, I have wasted my time. Respect to other people will be a 2 way street in this blog. No name calling. call it like you see it, but be respectful of PEOPLE.
• If you comment, or email me, that I am an ass hole, I will remove your post, remember, I already admitted to that one. (Look up this page)
• I am not here to prove there is no god at all, that is beyond our human capability. I am here to disprove the BIBLE, to show it as the human written, mistake laden, brain washing tool that it is, and that there is no need for religion to have ethics.
• If you post something really stupid, please know that it will be mocked. So THINK before you post. I may even share some of the stupidest stuff with other web sites, just for fun. Using spell check counts here too.
• Remember, this god crap is all a fairy tale to me. It's fake. not real. Made up. So, please don't be too surprised when I commit Blasphemy against your sky fairy, his zombie son (who is himself), or the cheating wife, Mary.

Last, but not least:

• Stay on point. If the Blog that day is about an action in Genesis, please do not start talking of exodus, unless there is a tie to the subject. We will get to the other books soon enough (At least I am hoping we can, I mean it's not like we live to be 969 years old like Methuselah did(Genesis 5:27), and there is a lot of bull shit in this book to uncover!)

Now, on with the show.....
