The Abomination of Belief

 There can be no greater form of abomination than to believe in what can be neither demonstrated to exist nor made any actual clear unambiguous understanding of. 

For to "believe" in things that only invite our reason to crucify itself in knots of nonsensical logic pretzels is to blaspheme against the gift of reason one has been given, and all out of a desire, and a devotion, to need the fairy-tales one was taught as a child to be true, because we have been taught to depend on those fairy-tales for all of our emotional support.

 Selling such 'beliefs' is to invite grown human beings to remain children, in other words, not out of a desire to remain as fearless as children are when they are born, when they are wholly as innocent as Jesus himself, but out of the fear that children are taught to have, by Christianity and other religions, that they are sinners all headed straight to hell and damnation.

 And the only road they can travel to assure their salvation comes from trusting a Catholic priest. 

And each and every Catholic priest, by belonging and supporting a religion that cultivates in the minds of innocent children a dire need for salvation by instilling in those same children a fear of eternal damnation, only empowers every pedophile within the Catholic Church by creating spiritual dependence in its victims. 

And to protect the profits it makes from instilling such fear, effectively mind-raping innocent children for its own glory and gain, the Catholic Church has made it a moral imperative to protect the pedophiles it employs, rather than the children it poisons with ideas of "original sin" and damnation for its profits.

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...

The Clash of Religious Beliefs with Reality: Over Simplicity in a Hyper Complex World

God is the anthropomorphism of  our hope that life has a "happily ever after" ending, where there is no such thing as death and suffering, which we anthropomorphize in the form of the devil. In a sense, we are taking ideas and turning them into phantom figures of our selves, with angles and demons being projections of our own souls and our penchant for good and evil.  We see this when we anthropomorphize the act of gift giving into Santa Clause and think in terms of "old man winter" and "father time." We even reverse this process by describing ourselves as living in the springtime of our youth or the autumn of our years.  Religion takes this habit to another level, however, and teaches people to "believe" that the personifications we rely on to describe our hopes and fears are actual "beings;" beings from whom all of the characteristics we tend to associate with ideas of life and death, good and evil, necessarily emanate.
