The Heaven & Hell on Earth

It is rather incredible that all those who think they deserve to live in an eternal paradise with the creator of the universe, and all because they "behaved" like good human beings were told to during their life (as if they were essentially dogs), are also perfectly okay with the idea that there are any number of people who will, at the same time, be burning in hell for all of eternity - some of whom they will most likely know and care about, and perhaps even one of their own parents or children.

That such "believers" never seem to care if people will be roasted alive for all eternity, in an oven created by the very "loving God" they claim to worship and adore, is perhaps one of the greatest "miracles" religion has ever performed. And it is a miracle, because religion has apparently succeeded in never letting such a thought enter the mind of the Christian. Or where such a thought has entered, it has placated the "believer" using the very same kind of justifications for such eternal torments, that any number of serial killers or genocidal dictators have used for inflicting similar such suffering, only on a finite scale.

Hence, for a person to "believe" they will go to heaven, means they hope to spend eternity with a God who has created a place where their own children will suffer in unimaginable torture for all eternity. And it is this same God they celebrate every Sunday, whom they pray to endlessly, and who they insist "loves" us all.

Of course, they explain all of this to themselves, and anyone who sees such a setup as being a kind of spiritual Stockholm Syndrome, by naturally blaming the "unbelievers," who all apparently and knowingly, misused their God given reason and free will to arrive at the very kinds of conclusions that would only guarantee they should burn forever in hell for reaching.

Or worse, the Christian will at times suggest that perhaps no one is in hell, as has been argued by some priests and pastors. But if this is the case, then why should anyone become a Christian at all?

To capture such an idea in terms of the world we know, the Christians who seek to live in heaven forever are essentially all hoping to live the lavish lifestyle of Donald Trump, with Donald Trump, while being utterly convinced that all those who are suffering the most in the world - from disease, poverty, war, famine, crime and all the rest - simply deserve it.

Why Ben Shapiro is Wrong About BLM

If Ben Shapiro really wants answers to his condemnations of BLM, he should start by reading a few books, and then some. For example, he can find all of the answer's he's looking for in: Slavery By Another Name , by Douglas Blackmon, which shows how "thousands of African Americans were pulled back into forced labor with shocking force and brutality," right up until the 1970s, when I was still in grade school. The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness , by Civil Rights litigator and legal scholar, Michelle Alexander, which explains how "mass incarceration" under the ruse of a War on Drugs, has effectively created a caste system that is as pronounced in America today as it was in the Jim Crow south, if not more. Ghosts of Jim Crow , which was written by Constitutional Law Professor, F. Michael Higgenbotham, which explains in great detail how "the shadows of Jim Crow era laws and attitudes continue to perpetuate insidious, ...

Father Mike's Omniscience About Transgenderism

The major problems in the world are the result of the difference between how nature works and how people think. Gregory Batson I f my perception doesn't match up with reality, it's not reality that has to change, it's my perception.   Fr. Mi ke Schmitz Despite the ever growing mountain of evidence about the nature of transgenderism, Fr. Mike Schmitz simply refuses to change his perception. And that's because his "perception," is not only based on nothing but his "beliefs," but because selling those "beliefs" is his one and only job! The problem, if he were truly trying to follow in the footsteps of Christ, is he would stop trying to sell people what he "believes" is the truth, and he would try to actually start trying to FIND THE TRUTH instead.  NOT DOING SO, however, is simply an act of his own spiritual pride, and nothing else. WHY DO CHRISTIANS PREFER THEIR BELIEFS TO THE TRUTH?  Probably because th...

The Height of Arrogance of Christian Humility

 "To think that the ruler of the universe will run to my assistance and bend the laws of nature for me is the height of arrogance. That implies that everyone else (such as the opposing football team, driver, student, parent) is de -selected, unfavored by God, and that I am special, above it all." Dan Barker, Losing Faith in Faith: From Preacher to Atheist (Madison, WI: FFRF, 1992), p. 109. What could be more arrogant than to believe in miracles? To believe that the supreme ruler of the universe has not only bent the laws of nature by which everyone else is bound, but that such a ruler did so as a special favor to you, and also as a special message and invitation to you, which that ruler intentionally withholds from everyone else.  Even the person who believes they know something is a miracle believes that their knowledge of miracles is itself a special knowledge, amounting to a kind of miracle in and of itself, that the God who performed the miracle bestows to his chosen ...
