Christians Hope God is Nothing Like They Are

We are the gods to everything else. We are the superior intelligence to all other forms of life, so we believe, and we are the ones who "intelligently design" our world, our zoos, and even ourselves. Yet look at how we treat all those species in our care, whom we see as less evolved, less intelligent, and less cultured than we are; even among our own species, let alone all the others.

We are the Nazi's to all of the other species on the planet, as one writer put it. Indeed, we are the monsters, and by believing ourselves to be the central Claymation in God's diorama, we cast ourselves in the role of the gods of all we survey. Like tiny little Napoleons, then, we think we are the most special species of all. And all because like Narcissus, we have fallen in love with the beauty of our own self importance.

Christians are quite mistaken to think that they are made in Gods image, therefore, for if they were, they could only expect that God would eventually throw them on the barbecue, much like we throw the chicken, the pig, the fish or the cow, instead of into a palatial mansion in heaven that has all the opulence of an Arab sheik. Indeed, it is perhaps the most extreme exercise in hubris for the Christian to think they are made in Gods image, even as they hope like hell that He is not made in theirs.

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...

Why Are Republicans Pro Life?

Most people don't realize that the Supreme Court has been in the hands of the Republican party since at least 1970! In fact, even in the landmark case of Roe v Wade that legalized abortion, SCOTUS was inhabited by 6 Republicans and 3 Democrats, and the vote was 7 to 2. One of the reasons is that the Republican Party has absolutely ZERO desire to win on the abortion issue. And that's because abortion gives the GOP a clear focal point with potentially unlimited organizing power. And it's an even simpler message to sell than religion, since we are "pro-life." (if that was true, however, they wouldn't be actively trying to repeal healthcare for up to 30 million Americans, nor would they be so pro-gun, pro-war, pro-death penalty, pro welfare cuts, pro- social security cuts, pro- drone strikes, etc). The Republican party officially became "pro-life" in 1976, thanks to Jesse Helms (R-NC). The only reason no serious challenge was brought within the pa...
