Funny anti-religious Internet pics

[doctorsun]

As I've gotten older, I've become more and more anti-religious. I see religion as a cancer on society. Even in the best case scenarios, people use it as a placebo to numb their fear of the unknown. Logic and reason are set aside for pacification. This thread is amazing to me. Religious people - particularly Christians - need to be called out on their bullshit. No magic man in the sky is going to save them and they need to grow up and accept that.

What's interesting to me is that religious people, especially the ones that post in this particular thread, can look a fact in the face and deny its truth in the name of faith! That is BAFFLING to me.

That they are as entrenched and in their position is as baffling as the fact that you two are so in your own, and ask them to get "called out on their bullshit", just as they think exactly the same about you.

This is not a bout religion or enlightenment, this is about conviction, about the strong need to clinch to what they FEEL is THE truth, and no matter what it is or how you call it, it will be the mental position to avoid the strain of continuous thinking and the feeling that everything is true and firm and lasting ONLY to a certain point: for people who want the absolute here and now, which is MOST people everywhere anytime, it is a lost battle.

Even if they pretend to admit that they do not actually know everything, and that they are not holding the absolute truth, they are still holding an absolute position as the unshakable cornerstone of all the rest (cornerstone usually accounting for the BIGGEST part of their whole fabric) and THAT's the problem.

I understand your point, but I feel that my position is changeable. If there are new facts brought to light, I will certainly consider changing my opinion. I do believe in flexibility, but I'm not open to the supernatural unless something presented is absolutely irrefutable. As yet, I have seen nothing of the kind.

You whore!

I love Calvin and Hobbes.

Apparently my job at the bordello is in jeopardy.

What?! I was not defending religion or anything, or relativizing the fanatism derived from it, much less trying to convince anyone of anything: all I was saying is that the evil is deeper and it is not exclusively, nor even mainly related to religion, but to obdurately lazy, ignorant minds... like in politics or other cases, remove religious dogmatism and you will find the same thing under a different vest (or just the same vest turned around) to take its place.

You might agree that religion is merely an efficient vehicle for evil rather than its primary cause?

BTW, I love the word "obdurate." I've yet to have occasion to write it or say it, but it is one of my favourites.

It is officially a perfect synonym for "obstinate" but it means something different to me: I'd think of "obstinate" as active stubbornness, emphatic rejection. Whereas "obdurate" sounds much more dull and potato-like; given to unthinking inertia.

Ex-actly... even if someone else might say it is not quite so To English-shattering people like me, it helps that a fifth of Latin is somewhere there inside the language to make oneself understood.

Gorier than The Passion of the Christ ...
