 If everything depends on God, then nothing can exist independent of God.

That means neither heaven nor hell can exist independent of God, nor can any of the "souls" that are said to occupy either one. 

Such a god only gives life while wanting something in return. That god wants either life long devotees or wants to punish those who failed to become such devotees for all eternity. 

According to Christians, this same God is the moral example that all not only should follow, but indeed must follow to save themselves from eternal torments. But to follow the example of such a god is to be willing to torture those who do not devote themselves to him, which is why Christians burned "witches" and "heretics" alike in the name of "love" of their God. 

Who's love? Theirs, for their "beliefs," about their idea of what the word "God" means to them, even if it doesn't mean the same thing to anyone else.

Of course, to follow such a "God," according to Christians, you must follow Christianity, even though Christians have been killing even each other for centuries because they can't agree about which version of Christianity leads to salvation and which ones are devilishly fabricated knock-offs that lead to hell.

And Christians claim that such a God must exist because a "God" that exists is greater than a god that does not exist. 

The problem the Christian never thinks to address, however, is the fact that a God who gives without wanting anything in return is far greater than a god that requires instagram followers to feel "loved," and is infinitely greater than a god who also feels justified in torturing anyone who picks the wrong brand of religion through which to show that "love."

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 ...
