The Hubris of Religous Humility: How Faith turns Lies into Facts

People who "believe" that you must love and accept God/Jesus or go to hell are simply confessing that, to them, NOT believing in the fairy-tale of how right/smart they are is pure torment.

Such people are so truly terrified by the reality of their own mortality and limited understanding, in other words, that it is far more comforting for them to imagine people being roasted alive for all of eternity rather than consider for a single second that they could be wrong.

Such extreme emotional addiction to a psychotic lie only ensures that such "holy" and "humble" believers are far, far more comfortable with blaming all of the worlds problems on those they are convinced (because Jesus convinced them, of course) are the REAL reason for why the world is going to hell in a hand basket.

It's not because Christians have started wars and condone drone strikes, it's not because they militantly support pro-life politicians who wage more wars and kill more people and children than Satan could only ever dream of, it's not because they condemn homosexuals as sinners despite deriving all of their understanding about sexuality from saints like St. Augustine (who openly wrote about how he supported slavery, felt women were as evil as the devil himself, and that torture was one of the best means of converting people to Christianity). Indeed, it's not even that Christians praise the money lenders and condemn any Christ-like-figure who ever suggested that poor people should have access to any healthcare they didn't directly pay for themselves.

No, it's none of that. It's because gay people cause hurricanes, and economic collapse. It's because "baby killing democrats" are pissing off their psychopathic father in Heaven, who in turn has decided to smite us all for ignoring his demands, regardless  of our "free will."

And that's how faith in god turns the greatest lie ever sold into a fact all must believe...or be killed.

Why Christianity is More Unnatural Than Homosexuality

I grew up in a family that is about as homophobic as Phil Robertson and the Westboro Baptists, only they're not quite as boisterous about it; at least not in public anyway. They have also conveniently convinced themselves  that their homophobia is really just their unique Christian ability to "hate the sin, but love the sinner" (even though these very same Christians adamantly refuse to accept that people can "hate Christianity, but love the Christian").  The sexual superiority complex necessarily relied on by such Christians is, of course, blanketed beneath the lambs wool of the Christian humility of serving "God." They interpret their fear of those who are different, in other words, as simply proof of their intimate knowledge and love of God. And the only thing such Christians are more sure about than that their own personal version of "God" exists, is that such a "God" would never want people to be homosexual - no matter how ma

Christianity: An Addiction of Violence Masquerading as Love: Part II

"But God by nature must love Himself supremely, above all else." Fr. Emmet Carter   This is part  two of a look at an article written about the "restorative and medicinal" properties of punishment, as espoused by Fr. Emmett Carter (https://catholicexchange.com/gods-punishment-is-just-restorative-and-medicinal/).  Ideas of this sort in Christianity go back to St. Augustine and Thomas Aquinas - two saints who saw the suffering of Christ as sure fire evidence that God needed humans to suffer to balance the cosmic scales of his love for us. Sure, he could've come up with a better game, or made better humans, but its apparently the suffering he really enjoys seeing. Carter's essay raises countless questions, especially about the true nature of God's blood lust, but lets stick to just four simpler ones. The first question deals with the idea of "free will." According to Christians, God designed us with the ability to freely choose to obey or offend h

Christianity: An Addiction of Violence Masquerading as Love: Part I

If the Holy Bible proves anything at all, it proves that the Christian God has a blood-lust like no other God in history. From Abraham to Jesus to the end times to eternal hell, the Christian God loves suffering even more than, or at least as much as, said God loves Himself. And if everything from the genocides in the Old Testament and God killing everyone on the planet with a flood, to Jesus being tortured and murdered (rather than the devil, who is the guilty one) and the fiery end of the world followed by the never ending fires of hell, are not enough to convince you that Christianity is really an addiction to violence masquerading as "love," just consider the psychotic rantings of a Catholic priest trying to convince his faithful flock that murder and mutilation - which he calls "punishment" -  are proof of just how much his "God" is pure love.  In an article published on https://catholicexchange.com/gods-punishment-is-just-restorative-and-medicinal/,
