irreversible

Let us for a moment consider what the Christian is necessarily guilty of "hoping for" if we reverse the arrow of time.

By this I mean, if "God" decided to reverse the clock of time itself - which a "God" who can do anything can do as easily as He can create a universe from nothing at all - so that in two thousand years Christians would eventually find themselves living in the days of Jesus, those Christians would suddenly be faced with a dilemma that demonstrates just how utterly useless, and therefore how utterly false, their modern version of Christianity really is, especially when it comes to defining morality.

This is because, if time suddenly did move in reverse, and the past became the future, the Christian would suddenly be faced with the question of whether people have free-will, and what they should therefore do with it, if in fact they do. And this question would then be followed by an even worse question: what to do about Jesus himself?

For if people had free-will, and were likewise aware that Jesus was the "son of God," as Christians claim, they would have to decide if they should torture and murder Jesus all over again, in order to save their own souls from eternal damnation, or spare him instead, and risk their own everlasting souls to do so in the process. 

In this situation, the Christian today would still "hope" for their salvation, as it were, but they would also be forced to accept that the only way they can obtain that salvation is to further "hope" that, two thousand years from now, the Christians who encounter Jesus himself will nevertheless torture and murder their "lord and savior" anyway, even though they will be just as aware as Christians are today that Jesus Christ is the undeniable "son of God."

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...
