I was abused by my christian parents.

I would like to live long enough to see humanity mature out of superstition and free the world from human greed.

  • I have to consciously remind myself that my parents were and are wrong.

    Sometimes I imagine the versions of them that live in my head gagged and bound in cages.

    No, dad, it was not a self-fulfilling prophecy that ruined my life, it was child abuse. No, mom, I should not repress my own emotions to please others. I am a human being, not your fucking possession.

    They’ll be part of me for as long as I am alive, but sometimes I can shut them up.

    I am trying to make something out of the ruins of my life. Not much luck so far. Therapy hasn’t helped yet. I wish people would stop normalizing abuse. The bible belt is a cesspool of stubborn, deadly ignorance.





  • There is, stop strawmanning it to “magic”

    Can god make something out of nothing? That is magic. Can god reverse death? That is magic.

    What’s up with the blood sacrifices and rituals? Totally-not-magic?

    The Son of Man as in the Messiah. Matthew 26:64 Jesus said to him: “You have said it. Yet truly I say to you, hereafter you shall see the Son of man sitting at the right hand of the power of God, and coming on the clouds of heaven.”

    Messiah meaning savior? To save us from the punishments god created for us?

    Jesus told him to “feed my sheep”.

    Jesus was kind of a dick like that, yeah. If we believe the gospels.


  • How do you know the canonical catholic interpretation is correct? Because some guy said so? Even if some guy was “officially” entrusted with that task, how do we know he didn’t make mistakes?

    How do we verify any of it?

    How do you know islam is false? Some guy said it’s true. That’s not enough for you anymore?

    What about mormonism? That guy had magic rocks. Is that any more or less ridiculous than a talking bush?







  • Have you even read one chapter of the bible? Genesis 1:

    28 God blessed them. God said to them, “Be fruitful, multiply

    Psalm 127:

    3 Behold, children are a heritage of Yahweh. The fruit of the womb is his reward. 4 As arrows in the hand of a mighty man, so are the children of youth. 5 Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them.

    If God was as “evil” as you portray him to be, why would he bear unbearable torture for our sake?

    You’re mixing up two things here.

    Jesus was crucified. A real man was murdered. That was not god, god is not real.

    The god described by the bible is 100% evil. He had all the power, chose to make us suffer, guilts us for it, and calls that “love”.

    The idea that god sent himself to die to solve problems of his own making is a later addition that makes him seem weak and stupid. Nothing is necessary to an all-powerful being.




  • Well, there was the global flood that killed most life on the planet. Or was that just allegory?

    How about these?

    1 Samuel 15:

    3 Now go and strike Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and don’t spare them; but kill both man and woman, infant and nursing baby, ox and sheep, camel and donkey.’”

    Hosea 13:

    16 Samaria will bear her guilt, for she has rebelled against her God. They will fall by the sword. Their infants will be dashed in pieces, and their pregnant women will be ripped open.”

    Numbers 31:

    17 Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman who has known man by lying with him.

    It was arguably worse for the girls:

    18 But all the girls, who have not known man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.

    And of course, 2 Kings 2:

    23 He went up from there to Bethel. As he was going up by the way, some youths came out of the city and mocked him, and said to him, “Go up, you baldy! Go up, you baldy!” 24 He looked behind him and saw them, and cursed them in Yahweh’s name. Then two female bears came out of the woods and mauled forty-two of those youths.






  • Especially considering he was already all-powerful. He knew what would happen and he did it anyway. Seemingly, he’s a cruel piece of shit who just wanted an excuse to eternally torture his weird little dolls.

    Without knowledge of good and evil, how were they supposed to know that god was good and snake was evil? It was entrapment.
