I don’t understand why you all hate God. Why don’t you believe He exists? I read in an earlier message that the Bible is filled with historical errors. Actually, it is very historically accurate. Christianity has been around since the beginning of time - it just didn’t have the name Christianity. The belief in God was the very first religion, until man sinned.

An elaborate spoof on Intelligent Design, The Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster is neither too elaborate nor too spoofy to succeed in nailing the fallacies of ID. It's even wackier than Jonathan Swift's suggestion that the Irish eat their children as a way to keep them from being a burden, and it may offend just as many people, but Henderson, described elsewhere as a 25-year-old "out-of-work physics major," puts satire to the same serious use that Swift did. Oh, yes, it is very funny. -- Scientific American
Dave,
First off, don’t insult our intelligence by packaging your trite ostentatiousness as sagaciousness from the kindness of your heart.
Your attempt at making unsolicited edits on an online comment thread worthy of no more than an unseen roll of the eyes and reciprocated snideness, but for you to focus the three paragraphs of half-wit redundancy conjures images of a fat, sweaty, unshaven man with, “pathetic” stamped across your forehead and an underlying testimony of a pseudo Michael Moore disciple who’s self worth is centered around asininity of his body of work online.
I author my posts in the 5 or 10 minutes breaks between appointments with clients or working on my column and the fact that you’re clearly unable to even considered this universal logic of the employed….. *wink*…
Second, you clearly have absolutely no clue as to the inner-working on denominational religion and any understanding you do have is a matter of casual research where you mine that which supports your bias views, while shutting out the rest.
For the past 70 years the Esoteric Restoration Movement has been working to remove the fraudulent teachings which have contaminated Christianity for 400 through the advent of annual republications of the scriptures and over the first 55 years of the movement there have been drastic changes into the teachings far surpassing all expectation & the decline of all Fundamentalist Denominations spawned from British and American Protestantism. Yet this is nothing compared to the multi-denominational alliance of Christians who have now began meeting on a semi annual basis, once in the summer to hold multi-theist revivals across the nation, while in the winter the heads of all Christian denominations (i.e. with the exception of Roman Catholics, Protestant, and a fraction of Evangelical Denominations) with the sole purpose of reinserting original teachings of the common foundation of teachings.
In the past 15 years we’ve seen unprecedented changes in teachings, the most dramatics of which being the Azusian Pentecostals who are the fastest growing denomination in the world, who have gone from burning all literature not pertaining to their religion, banning televisions, censoring all music except that recorded by Azusians, forbidding their women from wearing dressess above the knee, fprbidding women to cut their hair, while their men can’t wear shorts, tank tops, forbidding beards or hair past the shoulders… are now introducing classic literature to their youth, advocating universal righteousness throughout Christian and non-Christian religions, taking monthly trips to art museums, play houses, and have brought Buddhists, Hindus, and many other monks and priests to offer understanding of various religions.
So when I say Fundamentalism will come to an end by 2030, with the exception of a few singular churches with no national denominational links, it’s supported by facts, statistics, and careful research.
Third, you clearly have no clue about who, what, or why people to practice religion because your own conditioned pre-programming and desperate need for intellectual validation leads you to be equally as narrow minded as Fundamentalists.
People participate in religion because it promotes friendship, family, and community.
They practice religion because it brings them comfort.
They practice because it gives them the opportunity to help others in need.
Iconic deities is a small fraction of Christianity and if I discovered certain proof that there was no God on Saturday, I would still show up to Church on Sunday morning with the rest of my Esoteric Christian Brethren.
The last thing that is on our minds is death. If I was worried about death, then I never would have worked as a defense officer protecting UN and Peace Corp relief convoys, As an officer in a defensive unit at the start of the Liberia’s 2nd Civil War, served in Afghanistan, or Iraq.
What makes you an intellectual parasite and impostor is the fact that you haven’t considered the concept of religion past the same point that the Fundamentalist considered their own literalist doctrine… the only difference is your conclusion.
You’re just another puppet in this conspiritorial counter culture where men like Oliver Stone, Chris Carter, David Icke, and Lucien Wolf provide your with pre-packaged absurdist views, hustle you into buying into some grand scheme, send you on archival scavanger hunts, and sprinkle in just enough truth so that you’ll send them every penny of the 8 dollars an hour you make at Radio Shack. So that you can feel like you can see past some non-existence zionic curtain of what of is right infront of our eyes and know that this world is really being ran by a bunch of jewish bankers, dead bovarian drunkards, Ivy League Frat Boys, and a bunch of 35 year old accountants who get together on weekends in a clubhouse to play knights of the round, while wearing purple sashes, perform pagan rituals, and run around making intergalactic back alley deals with ET. When the fact of the matter is that they’re just a bunch of jerk off’s who like to sit around reading the wall street journal, smoke cigars, drink double malt scotch, and play card games.
Ramen, brother.

If the world were *really* run by Jewish bankers, the world might be at least a little more solvent than it is as run by Harvard MBA’s, but that’s just a personal opinion. I did want to repeat that it would be interesting if you’d post a few more leads/links/whatever to the fundamentals (no slur intended) of your Restoration movement. They seem to rate stratospherically high on sanity and tolerance. That has really been the most important point of all your posts, hasn’t it????
Here is a little fun bit for you. Maybe you didn’t read the rest of the word…because it was probably God—–dess. The first religion was actually Paganism. The worship toward nature and a Goddess and a God. Maybe you should stop with the nonsense, open your eyes, believe what you want, and let us do the same. Don’t brainwash our minds because you aren’t completely happy with yours.
Hope you enjoyed that correction from an 11 year old girl.
Oh and by the way….look at christmas easter and all of your other hollidays…take a look at a Pagan calendar…
Yule (December 21st) Christmas (Dec. 25th)
Ostara (March 21st) Easter (usually around same date)
Here are two Pagan holidays….and next to them, two christian holldays…take a look…
Yule (dec. 21st) Christmas (dec. 25th)
Ostara (march 21st) Easter (around same time)
Either Jesus was playing copycat with his birthday or you have a lot of lies told to you. Also, if you want to say that the Christian holidays came first, I can bring up some interesting facts about the exact opposite. Do some research before you defend your homie, God.

Although you addressed this to Darkcitymedia, I would like to correct one of your comments, myself.

You asked, “Why is it that evolutionism, which is just a theory, mind you, and has not been proven as of yet, can be taught as fact, but the idea of intelligent design cannot be taught at all?”
.
I wish this were the last time this had to be said, but since anti-evolution writers keep making the same mistake (or is it intentional?), evolution is NEVER TAUGHT AS A FACT! Neither the process nor the concept are considered to be facts. Everyone who teaches evolution knows this, you should, too. Once you know this, you will not look so uninformed when you express your views.

5 or 10 minute break, my noodle. You’re just sitting alone in your room, with a dictionary on your lap and tears in your eyes, is my guess. ‘pathetic stamped across your forehead’? Dude… The way you choose to keep the spaghetti out of your heart really shows your narrowmindedness. I hope you can be forgiven by your placebo-deity…
Fatal error 33:
Does not compute
“all hate God” Object not found
Christianity will now shut down…
We don’t hate god. Thats like hating the easter bunny. You can’t hate something that isn’t real.
We dont hate him at all. We just think he isn’t real. You can’t hate something thats not real. Did you know that there is more evidence that bigfoot is real than that god is real?
The bible is historically accurate? So your trying to tell me that you think its historically accurate that Moses Parted water with his hands and a staff? Do you think its historically accurate that a guy rose people from the dead and then he himself was killed and he came back to life? DO you think its historically accurate that the whole world flooded? They did resaerch and found that even if all the worlds ice melted there still would not be enough water to flood the world. Your ignoring the facts of evolution and only seeing what your parents and preist want you to see. You’ve been brainwashed since infancy and you dont even know it.
Well we don’t hate God, we have a noodley God, and you may try it for 30 days, if you don’t like the FSM you can have your old God and be happy.
It’s called satire - get over it.
? I dont get it… are you all making a spoof of christianity??? or of any other religion? If you all really sincerely believe in this FLying Spagetti Monster, be my guest and believe in the beer volcanos and stripper factories. BUT, if you’re REALLY making fun of christanity, then i feel REALLY bad for you. I’ll explain why, but i dont want to say if you guys really believe in this beast… i mean “Diety.” And by the way, insulting someone that merely asks oyu why you hate God so much isn’t a true way to debate.. Not taht i know how to debate at all…
ANOTHER THING, too, ive also been reading around, and i just wanna say, it appears that you guys are for the evoltionists theory… if you arent, please accept my sincerest apologies.
We Don’t Hate God…It’s Impossible to hate something that does not exist. Religion is just a crutch for the week. For those simple minded people who have no sense of direction in life to be told how to live. Those who have no backbone or sense of self. Those poor disgusting individuals who can’t think for themselves or figure life out on there own. The need the operating manual to figure out how to use a toaster. Religion is nothing more than a group of people that fail at life and rely on promises of something better…Promises that will never come true.
It is not a question of believing or not in god, but of forcing anyone to adopt a point of view which does not admite questioning. Science develops on questioning and on being wrong. When was the last time anyone hear a preacher saying he was wrong? Which religion allows questioning of its bible?
That is why whe should only teach what has been stablished through centuries of criticism and reasoning, not that it is the ONLY truth but that is the only INDEPENDENT truth, whic a muslim, a cristian, a budist, an atheist, anyone can equally contribute and discuss. INDEPENDENT of their belief in god.
You may believe in whatever you want, but to allow free thinking let us not force our children to choose one faith or another. Faith is individual. Reasoning, logical thinking is universal. It is a way to work together without having to have the same beliefs.
