The Sin of Thinking in Colors in a Religion of Black & White

 Christianity is based on the belief that God designed us to behave in a way He commanded us not to behave. While He designed us with "free will" and a preference for disobedience, according to Christianity, He also commands us to only use that "free will" to obey. If we do, we go to heaven, and if we don't we go to hell.

This is like asking a dog trainer to train your dog not to obey your commands, just so you can see how much the dog really loves you through its willingness to resist its programming. And if the dog fails at this task, you douse it in gasoline and set it on fire.  

 And if anyone asks you why you would ever do such a thing, you insist it is because you love your dog so much that you need it to show its love and devotion to you in return. And when it fails to do so, you choose to feel so hurt by this - even though you could easily choose not to feel hurt at all, especially since this was all part of your "plan" -  that you feel the only remedy is to torture the dog for all eternity. 

And to the Christian, that their God can treat his  human "children" the same way the hypothetical dog owner above treats his dog makes perfect sense.

Put another way, Christianity wants people to believe that the very same God that "intelligently designed" us to see in color, with a brain that has an overwhelming preference for, and can only grow by, being as both curious and creative as an artist with an unlimited number of colors at their disposal, then commands us to prove our "love" for Him by only thinking in the black and white tones of right and wrong, good and bad, as defined by a Church - the same church that put protecting its own reputation over protecting children from the pedophiles and pederasts operating within its ranks. 

From this perspective, the many colored coat of Joseph reflected his ability to think outside the binary box of black and white. And the hole he was thrown into by his brothers is the hell God threatens to throw us all in for failing to obey the command to renounce our biology and follow a religion of black and white thinking, even though we are designed with a need and a preference to learn and grow the branches of our brain by committing the sin of thinking in colors.

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 ...
