He refererd to you as 1ProudAtheist. Not 1ProudFEMALEAtheist. I guess we should start talking about how religion is by nature mysogenistic and anti-woman as well.
What is up with that anyway? Women are slapped down in religion, but priests have sex with male children? Why does that make sense?
LMAO! Indeed….indeed.
I guess because they know they only have to ask for forgiveness, and they will be forgiven. Makes sense, right?
Would you just please shut the fuck up you moron? NO YOU DID NOT GIVE ME A LIST OF EYEWITNESSES OUTSIDE OF THE BIBLE WHO WROTE ABOUT WITNESSING JESUS RISE FROM THE DEAD OR SEEING HIM ALIVE AFTER HIS DEATH. You are DELUDED.
i read it wrong actually, and i’m a woman so that kind of just kills your argument
I’m a woman you twit! yes, i am sexist against my own gender…..that makes sense! and for the record the Bible teaches that all are equal and it does nothing but promote the equality of men and woman. esp the Gospel of Luke
Nope, if you read through all the comments you see that i didnt start this – i was simply asked a question by 1Proudfemaleathiest and i answered it. she didnt like my answer and now she’s arguing with me. please dont start cristising me, she asked me a question and i answered, thats all so im not just saying “no its not”, she is to my reply!! she hasnt even give me anything to say that to!
No it doesn’t – it tells women to submit to their husbands!
Every single miracle or healing in the gospel of Luke has the healing/miracle of a man and then a similar healing of a woman. and there are countless references which state all are equal – woman, men, slaves etc. if you’re making that comment then you seriously havent read the Bible – it states that in a marriage the man should be the head figure of the house, that doesnt take away the equakity of all, thats saying it is his family and he should do whatever to preotect them
I said “no historical evidence Jeus existed”
You simply say “Yes there is” and fail to produce it.
That’s your rhetoric. You make claims and offer no proof!
Note the examples she just laid out for you about job, the kid ordered to death for teasing abald man, and god’s penchant for genociding the earth once in a while… WHy does this asshole deserve any respect? Fuck that celestial scumbag if he’s going to be like that! He’s useless until he decides to murder everyone?
I did provide proof. =)
One murder is never enough for Yaweh. He’s like a lawn-mower of death when you step even slightly out of line.
“You had intercourse in a way I find awkward!!! For that I shalt curse your entire nation with leperacy!”
Well, he’s sooo generous isn’t he?
Makes me want to get on my knees and smile like a doughnut.
I’m so glad yaweh is there to not kill us all the time and maybe throw our pathetic incompetent selves a bone now and then.
I love being subjugated by an imaginary monster!
Remember last time that guy came back from the dead?
Yeah, me niether.
Guess what,pal. the bible hasn’t accurately predicted anything. The human brain looks for patterns in everything. Usually people extrapolate belief from things that are in no way connected to what is written. It’s as simple of a con as a card trick.
“Neither is yours” See? Just turning tables again! You didn’t even consider the facts in order to assert your claims against it!
How did they know? B/c inf you’re into business (as bronze-age farmers most definitely were) your mind thinks of ways to improve business. Certain ideals are created and even discusssed with other people and soon ideas are considered long into the future with many “what-if” possibilities. It’s called “Creativity” look into it, sheep of god.
Prove that. Find some links and we will consider them.

Gemz, I see you must get off on getting your ass kicked, seeing how many bloggers make you look like the idiot you are.
I wonder what it would be like to see Hitchens sober. Could you imagine? His accent going all southern. It would be hillarious.
Damn, gotta love the Hitch.
Indoctrinating children with religion should be illegal and considered a crime against humanity!! Religion infects young minds with reason-crippling absurdities before they’ve developed the critical skills and maturity to analyze and sift assertions for themselves. We ban youth from watching movies whose violent or sexual content may harm mental and emotional development;,so too should religion be banned from childhood!
@Hottides We don’t need a government to “ban” anything. We need to reach a point in our development as a species that we don’t require something to be “banned” for us all to avoid it like the plague.
@Gemz8 What about the passages marginalizing raped women and illustrating how best to keep a human slave obedient (turns out it’s by also enslaving his family) written all over Deuteronomy?
A Hitchens in time saves all.
Hitchens is my religion!
@gargamel6699 Hahaha, I’d say grumpy, pretty grumpy. If I were that smart I’d have to drink that regularly to keep myself sane amidst the worlds stupidity.
