Work quiz

The other day at work I did another little experiment. We all had to take some stupid test on the computer about proper lifting procedures and crap. But on one of the screens there was a picture of the human spine, including the tailbone. So I asked My manager if she knew why we have a tailbone, and she didn't have a clue. I told her it's what's leftover from the days when we had a tail. She gave Me the strangest look. Then I asked her if she believed in evolution or that we came from Adam and Eve, and she said she had no idea.

So this kicked off My project for the night. To ask everyone about this picture on the computer screen, and get their answers on why we have a tailbone, if we evolved from apes or if they think we came from the biblical story.

The correct answer is the tailbone is what's left from the days when we had an actual tail. Our tailbone serves NO practical purpose at all, in fact it's kind of a pain in the ass (pun intended). It's just a useless vestigial organ that our DNA has basically turn off the switch for 'making a tail'. And YES .. there is a mountain of evidence supporting this claim!! Let's just say that around 97% of all the scientist in the world agree!

So as the night progressed I ended up asking everyone the same questions, and was amazed at the results.

- 1 person out of 8 got the answer right. Her answer was "Because we used to have a tail???" Her tone was very uncertain and she gave the answer in sort of a questioning form. But I gave her credit for it so at least one person got it right.

- Do you believe in evolution. Again, 1 out of 8 people said they did. 4 said they didn't have a clue, and the other 3 said we came from Adam and Eve.

And one person actually threatened Me!! She was highly pissed that I dare say that she came from a monkey!!!! Her exact words were, "Don't you dare say that I came from some fucking monkey! I ain't no fucking monkey!! And I didn't come from no fucking caveman either! I came from Adam and Eve, and people can fuck off if you they think otherwise!!!!" WOW ..... such nice christian language I thought. Needless to say I had to back-pedal a bit and assure Her that she was right and that most Americans think the same way so she was in good company!

But in reality, this whole test was a little scary for Me. I've seen the statistics on the internet, but it's much more frightening to see it in real life. To know that most Americans don't have a clue about evolution but I bet they can tell you who's sleeping with Brad Pitt! I mean a few of these people are in college!!! I would have hoped that at least college would be teaching the scientific facts! It was either the fact that they had NO idea about it, or the violence that came with it that really made Me see how people can be stuck in a rut about bigger ideas in life. Our lack of knowledge is really scary, and YES .. this was Me a few years ago too, I'm no better!

The next thing I'd like to do is ask everyone about the "Noah's Ark" story, and if they believe it's true or not. This should prove to be incredibly difficult since most of the people at work are onto Me and know that I'm not asking this stuff out of just everyday conversation. Might I say that My 'study group' has reach it's breaking point. Might be time to get a new job!!

So from My little miniature study on people, it's sad to say that the next generation is probably not going to be any better than what we have today. And the decline of America seems to be inevitable. So I guess the rest of the world will continue to kick our ass when it come to forging ahead with science and knowledge, meanwhile our country will believe that we all came from MAGIC, and in a few years Sarah Palin will lead us all to Armageddon.

Yeah ...... the future looks bleak.

John 3:16


Get it ?? Today is March 16th, or 3/16. What a perfect day to talk about a famous bible verse.

So what exactly does John 3:16 say? It says :

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
-------------------

Hmmmmmmm. I don't see what is so special about this verse, it seems just as stupid as any other bible verse if you ask Me.

-God so loved the world. - I doubt that, all evidence points to the fact that God hates the world. He's pissed off, jealous, and angry that we always fuck up (but He invented us). Doesn't it seem odd that an all powerful being has such petty human emotions as jealousy, and anger??

-He gave His only begotten Son - Well now, I never asked you to give up your son. Nor did I say that He had to be an only child! I mean - your God ... why didn't you just magically impregnate 100 women instead of just one?

- And you really didn't give up your Son .. because your son is YOU! And since you know everything, then you already knew that after 3 days you would rise again and go right back to heaven where you came from in the first place. What kind of sacrifice is that?

- Shall not perish, but have everlasting life - BULLSHIT! Everybody perishes. Anyone and everyone who has ever lived has perished. And what's this everlasting life stuff? Do you have any proof that there is everlasting life? NO! That's the beauty of religion ... all the magic happens AFTER YOU DIE!!! Wow .... what a concept! No way anyone can ever prove you wrong!

--------------------

I'd like to propose My own bible verse that makes about as much sense.

For Les so loved the world, that He sent a spaghetti monster to watch over you during your time on earth, and that all who believe in the pasta fairy shall never die, but live eternally forever in the big meatball in the sky.

Notice any similarities??? Yeah ... you can't prove ME wrong either. Enough said.

Genesis 1:16

And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.

--------------------

Now I know I've talked about this already, but it really bugs Me. How do Christians read this and not say "Wait a minute .. this don't make sense? This is something man would write back in the day when they didn't know any better!"

- God made 2 great lights - WRONG

- the lesser light to rule the night - WRONG

- he made the stars also - AS IF THE STARS ARE ANY DIFFERENT THAN THE GREATER LIGHT! They are all suns !!!!!!! How could God be so stupid? Oh yeah, it wasn't God .. it was man who just didn't know any better. Silly Me.

-And people would say "It was written by man, not inspired by God, so of course they are going to make some mistakes" To which I would reply, "Then what the hell are we doing looking for the divine answers in it for????????"

ConfusLes think it odd that He reads the bible more as an agnostic, than He did when He was a Christian.

Another damning video




Yes another fascinating video on proof for evolution, and extinction, and speciation. Real scientific evidence as to how things evolved, when it happened, what was around during these different periods, and how life branched out into different life.

I post these videos because I am extremely confused as to how religious people say that the earth is only 6000 years old, and everything just appeared in a magic *POOF* !! I'm uncertain as to how one can argue the validity of the Bible when they are up against the mountains of evidence pointing the opposite way. I mean ...... evolution is NOT that difficult of a concept to grasp! Dare I say, it doesn't even require 'FAITH' !!

I mean WHO CARES !!!! So the Jesus story and the Mohammad story have both been proven to be nothing more than old mythological folk lore!! So you believed in something and it turned out to be wrong! Big deal .. why try keeping it alive just because of ignorance? That doesn't mean you can't believe in a 'creator' or some 'higher maker' out there somewhere. But lets put to rest this bullshit that Jesus talks to you and answers your prayers and heals the sick, and causes earthquakes in the lands where people sin too much. I mean enough is enough already!! Amen.

WHAT A DAY!!!!!!!!!!!

*Warning* - long posting .. but well worth it!



Ohhhhhhh some days I'm just happy to be alive! I lead a pretty quiet, uneventful life so I'm pretty easily amused.

Today 3 Jehovah's Witnesses came to My country door. First of all, I think you gotta be pretty desperate to go out to the country where there's only a house every 5 miles. I mean how are you going to meet your Jesus quota that way????

So they tell Me they're here to talk to Me about God, and hand Me a couple of brochures, one of them is about 'What does God think of alcohol?" to which I replied, "Didn't Jesus turn the water into wine? Oh yeah, and weren't some of his disciples so drunk they passed out butt naked?"

And the reply was "Yes, people have messed up this world something terrible."

And My response "Didn't God create people?? Isn't God perfect? Why would God create something that didn't work just so He could punish it? Is God that sadistic? If I built a car that blew up every 3 feet, wouldn't I just start over with a NEW car instead of just blaming the old car (that I created) as being a piece of crap?"

*** at this point the poor ladies knew this wasn't going to be the 'average' house call.

Then they pointed out that all the earthquakes and hurricanes are God's way of saying that the end times are near.

I simply said, "All the earthquakes and stuff are the cause of 'climate change' that's probably caused by HUMANS and it's the earth's way of saying "KNOCK IT OFF!!" I also pointed out that driving around in the country telling old folk tales is not helping their 'carbon footprint' either! And why is this end times the right one? What happened to 1988, what happened to 2000? Are you now selling 2012 as the magic time??" I also pointed out that the odd weather that we are seeing ain't NOTHING .... just wait another 10 or 20 years and watch the fun! Oh yeah, I also pointed out that IF God creates these earthquakes, it was sure nice of Him to slaughter 200,000 innocent people in Haiti. Nice guy!!!

Then I felt obligated to point out that their Bible says the earth is around 6000 years old even though every single branch of science has unanimously agreed that the earth is around 4.5 billion years old and is whizzing through the universe which is around 14.4 billion years old.

They said "God created MAN around 6000 years old, not the earth and stars and stuff."

My response "BULLSHIT ...... In the beginning there was a endless VOID, and God created the earth, and the stars, and the planets, and the trees, and the waters, and , and , and. Then He was exhausted so He took a nap on the 7th day."

And they tried to say "It doesn't really say how long man has been around in the Bible."

And I responded "BULLSHIT ..... it's one of many fatal errors in the bible. They put a genealogy chart that can be traced back to the days of Adam and Eve, and that same time God made them, He created everything else too!! Nice try!!"

** At this point I started to realize that they didn't have much of a leg to stand on with their questions, so I decided to turn the tables around and throw out a few questions of My own.

So I asked THEM - "How come God never answers prayers? How come Christian people who get married have a higher divorce rate than non-Christians? How come there is NO evidence of a world wide flood? Wouldn't it be safe to say that if you were in Pakistan right now doing the same thing you'd be handing out brochures of how Mohammad is the son of Allah? Why are there unicorns mentioned in the Bible? How come the Bible says the earth is the center of all the universe and everything spins around us, when it clearly doesn't? Do you really believe that Noah lived to be 950 years old, and at around 500 years old He took on the task of building a 450 foot ark made up of gopher wood? Isn't it odd that God's 7th commandment is 'thou shalt not kill' and yet God himself commanded the death of millions of people?"

Oh yeah .. needless to say, I don't think these poor Jehovah witnesses were quite up to the task of dealing with a prick like Me! If it wasn't the middle of winter, I would have taken them on the tour of "Noah's Ark" that I measured out on My property. I think I could have spent a few hours with these ladies ... hell, I might have even convinced them to become agnostic!

And as we parted ways they asked if they could come back some day and discuss God with Me again (must be part of the contract to get to Heaven). To which I kindly said "NO". I pointed out that I would enjoy them coming to My door spouting religion to Me just as much as they would like it if a bunch of naked men had a gay orgy on their front doorstep. I wished them luck, and told them you don't need religion to be a good person, it's OK to just go out in the world and be good person all on your own!

And My last words to them were the best sound advice I thought I could give, and that is "I don't know all the answers .. but YOU DON'T EITHER! And that's OK! Take care and good luck."

----------------------

So all in all, that was a hell-of-a-lot of fun. I'm kinda disappointed I didn't tell them to come back. But I guess if I ever want to get into a heated debate about religion with someone, I shouldn't have to go very far to make that happen.

Praise Jesus


Oh praise the Lord! Jesus I give thee thanks! God answers prayer! The Lord is so awesome!!

As I'm writing this, I'm slowly recovering from the worst case of strep throat and flu that I can remember having. I won't mention the fact that I probably got it from work, which is reason 153 of "Why Work Is Stupid!" Anyway, within a matter of about 2 hours, I went from feeling normal to laying flat on My back in bed with no strength! Now that's impressive! The next day I headed to the Doc and got on a pretty powerful dose of azithromycin, and sure enough a couple of days later I have some strength again, My 104 degree fever has broke and I'm returning to normal. Please note that I am NOT writing this for sympathy that I'm sick! I couldn't give a shit if no one knew that I'm 'under the weather' .. it's just not that big of deal!!!! I'm writing this as an example of observation of human stupidity by comparison.

Now there are several fascinating things to observe about this. The fact that a microscopic germ can bring a man to his knees is pretty damn impressive. The fact that a person can go from 'well-to-hell' in a matter of a couple hours all because a little microbe is reeking havoc inside his body is also pretty cool. Or the fact that it doesn't always have to be a volcano or massive tsunami to wipe out a big chunk of people. But I'd like to focus on the fact on just HOW I got well in the first place.

So many people today, in fact, I'd say a dangerous percentage of people, would give thanks to Jesus for healing them of sickness ... just like the Bible says. These same people don't even bat an eye to the fact that the FIRST place they went was to the damn MEDICAL DOCTOR to see what science and biology could do about it! In fact .. if you did corner these people about the fact that science made them feel better, they would just argue that JESUS gave us the knowledge to create antibiotics. It's really a no win situation with these people. It just pisses Me off that people are this ignorant to the truth in this day and age. That there is REAL, testable, demonstrable evidence as to why we get sick and how medical science can fix it. But these ignorant assholes would rather take the medicine, but give all the credit to the fact that their church put their sickness on a 'prayer chain' at the local church! Fucking assholes!!

If I had one wish, it would be that all these religious nutcases out there were not allowed to use man-made science in ANY PART of their lives. Everything and anything they need will have to come out of their magic book. Going by that theory, you wouldn't have a car, or running water, or electricity, or your tennis shoes, your cellphone, or your computer. Yeah .. I think a 1 month course in reality would shock you back into the real world. I would say that all you'd have left in your life would be to go live at your church ... but since there is so much science involved in that building too ... you wouldn't be allowed to stay there for shelter either.

So as I continue to feel better and recover from a massive ass whooping of strep throat, I would like to give a huge shout of thanks to all the people in the medical science field who have dedicated countless hours of their lives, just to ensure that other people don't have to suffer from ailments. No doubt, your efforts have made the world an incredibly better place to live in. And sorry Jesus ... since you had NO part in this equation what-so-ever, I give you NO praise, NO thanks, and NO worship! Sorry to pop your ego bubble. Amen.

Facts you'd probably not guess about Me

Here's some facts you may be surprised to know about Me.


1. I have cried over the loss of a loved one.

2. I donated money to the people in Haiti

3. I think human companionship is a necessity for survival. (just not for Me)

4. I believe there might be a creator of everything. I'm agnostic, not atheist.

5. I think there are thousands and thousands of extremely intelligent people in the world.

6. I understand why people in extreme situations fall into needing a belief in Jesus for support. I just wish I they would wake up to reality.

7. I have had countless heart to heart talks with friends and family.

8. I believe we need a government to have a functioning society. Just that it needs to be about 1/20th as big.

--------------------

So if you want to think I'm a cold hearted prick, that's fine and dandy by Me. A lot of the times, I am. I'm blunt, to the point, and rude. But I also feel that the world needs a bit of a reality check to be 'put in it's place'. I'm sick of the stupid ideology that this world is making reality. We should be forging ahead on to bigger and better things, but instead we are becoming dumber by the day, while religious dogma is on a violent increase in the world. Yeah .... without some shaking up to facts in the near future, we could all truly be fucked. I don't like to view Myself as a dooms day seer, but with our country butting in to everyone's business, Islam wanting to take over the world, and top it off with the fact that we live in a nuclear age .. well ... we might just be in for an interesting lifetime indeed. And if one day the missiles start to fly, and the world drops to it's knees looking for an invisible being to come and save their ass from the Armageddon that they are all praying will happen anyway .. I can sit back and say with pleasure, "I told you so!", just before a nuclear warhead hits My roof. Amen.

In the News (voting)

Sarah Palin says she might run for president in 2012. Assuming both Obama and Palin win nominations, who would you vote for?
Obama
30%
Palin
47%
Neither
22%

------------------------------------------------------

Let's see ... 4 one way tickets to Switzerland $2500.00, moving expenses $5000.00, pay realtor and fees to sell house $6000.00, living in the land with 85% atheism and smoking weed is not illegal .... PRICELESS!!!!!

All My Rowdy Friends Have Settled Down

All My rowdy friends have settled down ....... AND TURNED RELIGIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!

What the hell happens to people when they get older? Are they all afraid to die or something? Did they just reach a point in life where they thought "Hmmm, I'm getting older, I better get My shit together with God!"

I have yet another friend who apparently has gone 'Bible' on Me. Yeah, someone who I could call up and bullshit with, joke around about stupid stuff, and even make a couple dirty jokes now and then. But not anymore .. now I'll get scorned for offending Him. Really?? I've known this prick for over 15 years .. and all of a sudden God came into His life and changed Him? BULLSHIT!!!

It's strange, the older I get the more I want to know the TRUTH about stuff. But it seems like the older other people get, they just want to fall into the pattern of what everyone else does. I guess everybody else is worried about being such a good person here on earth because they believe in the fairytale that they are going to live forever in the next life. Well I sincerely think God will be able to see through the bullshit of 'acting good now just to get a reward later' but what the hell do I know?

I guess each one of us has a choice to live any way we want, and for that I'm happy to be in the country we're in. The part that pisses Me off is that FACTS AND LOGIC overwhelming conclude that an invisible space daddy does NOT exist!!!!!!!!! YES ... there MAY be a creator out there ... but NO, you are not having a personal relationship with it. Nor did it send His Son down one day to die on a cross!!!! If there is a magical creator out there, NONE OF US have the slightest frickin' clue about Him, nor does He seem to give a shit about intervening in our personal lives, nor can you pray to 'it' and expect an answer!!!!!!!!

I predicted awhile back that all My friends would eventually fade out to next to nothing .. and sure enough it's coming true. Granted a big chunk of them finds Me too offensive and just a plain prick. Even still, a lot of them are just 'too busy' in their lifestyles to keep up on being friends, or have 'found GOD' and so friendships become second place I guess. Well, at any rate, at least I can say what I always say .. People are fucking stupid!!!! Because if your life is too busy because of God, or because of work, or because of your hectic lifestyle, then your living a very stupid life. Which is why I've disciplined Myself over the past couple years to just shut out the rest of the world and be happy with My dog. A good dog is all any real man needs in life anyway!!

So all you 'past friends' out there who now spend your days talking to thin air ... good luck to you. I predict that well over half of you will be right back in the gutter with Me in a short time, and the other half will go on and create a God in your head to get you through the rest of your life. I guess maybe it's a good thing, because anyone who needs to create a delusional entity in their heads to get by in life is probably not someone I could have stimulating conversation with anyway.

ConfusLes


ConfusLes wonder: What Jesus thinks when He realizes that the image of His grizzly death on the cross has been turned into the most lucrative, money grubbing logo in human history. And that 2000 years later, it's still raking in mountains of cold, hard cash .. mostly from poor people.

Pray for Me


Why the hell does everyone pray? Is everybody just F-ing stupid? Why don't people see the link between 'praying' and 'prayer NOT working'? What the hell is wrong with everyone?

These are big questions that may never be answered, but they still piss Me off.

Prayer has been scientifically proven to have NO BETTER ODDS than that of random luck! They have done double blind study after study on this! Maybe it's just God trying to trick us. He doesn't like being put to 'the test', so when we test Him .. He makes it not work! Yeah .. that's it.

I cannot prove that there is no God, nor can you prove that there is. But I can prove that prayer does not work .. and yet everybody still does it! I just don't get it! To go one step further, I prove that there is no God because prayer doesn't work. The bible talks about prayer and praying all the time, and how important it is. Well now ... if prayer has been proven to NOT WORK, then I might add that your magic book don't work either! But people won't put that together for some reason. Hell, I can't even get them to believe that prayer is full of shit!

I once again must come to the conclusion that I always come to, but wish I wouldn't. And that is people are just plain fucking stupid!

I think about George Carlin and what He said about prayer and can't help but chuckle a bit. He talks about how God has a divine plan for each and every one of us .. all laid out so perfect. And here we are on earth with billions of prayers going up in the sky all the time, each and every one of those prayers will alter God's divine plan in some way. Why the hell would you expect God to answer your feeble little prayer just to fuck up His master plan??? Not to mention, with all those prayers you'd have some people wanting rain, some people not wanting rain, some people wanting the Vikings to win, some people wanting the Saints to win, some people wanting to win the war, but the other side is praying to win the war too.

STOP THE FUCKING STUPIDITY ALREADY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Holy crap people are dumb!!!! People in this country have got things so fucked up backwards that if you dare say you don't believe in prayer your looked at like some evil nutcase .. when just the opposite is true!!! AND I CAN PROVE IT!!!! But that doesn't seem to matter! America just insists on being a backward ass country compared to much of the rest of the world that is leaving us in the 'bronze age' dust! Is it any wonder that on a scale that shows how many people believe in scientific evolution, we rank 34th out of 35 of industrialized countries. How sad.

I'm doing My part to try and change the world, but I can't do it alone. In fact some days, all I can do is sit back and observe all you idiots while every time you pray, you get let down .. again, and again, and again, and again.

I leave you with a quote that just about says it all.



TWO HANDS WORKING CAN DO MORE THAN A THOUSAND CLASPED IN PRAYER - ANONYMOUS

In the News (Haiti Aftermath)

Haiti amputees face desperate quest for limbs.

-----------

Now I'm not making fun of Haiti here. What they got just plain sucks! It's a shitty, tragic situation down there, no 2 ways about it.

BUT!

I would like to 'CALL OUT' to God to finally put this debate to rest! That prayer really DOES WORK!!! I pray that all the Haitian people who lost their limbs be miraculously healed by the Lord our God. For it says in the bible, that anything we ask for in His glorious name, shall be done.

Well now I can't think of a more perfect time than to give back their limbs to the poor children and adults of Haiti. Surely a loving, just, and true God would find it in Himself to magically make their arms and legs grow back again! Would a God be so cruel that He would let innocent children go through their entire life without any legs or arms?? Haven't these poor people been though enough??

So My prayer has went out! There aren't many clouds in the sky so reception shouldn't be a problem. I'll check the news tomorrow and see if any 'magic' has happened down there. Amen.

God Evolves, beer is good, people are crazy

Now continuing on from yesterdays country bumpkin, sister kissing song that I jokingly put up, I would like to expand on a topic of God, and how the God that we invent in our heads, evolves with each generation. To do this I would like to take apart this stupid song word for word. In case you missed it, see yesterdays blog and watch the video. Let's begin.

"This old man and Me,
were at the bar and we,
were having us some beers
and swapping 'I don't cares'."

"Swapping politics,
blond and redhead chics.
Old dogs and new tricks and
habits we ain't kicked."

"We talked about God's grace,
and all the hell we raised.
Then I heard the old man say,
God is great, beer is good, people are crazy."

"He said I fought 2 wars,
been married and divorced.
What brings you to Ohio,
said damned if I know."

"Talked an hour or two,
bout every girl we knew.
What all we put them threw,
like two old boys would do."

"We pondered life and death,
He lit a cigarette.
Said these damn things will kill Me yet,
But God is great, beer is good, people are crazy."

"Last call it's 2 AM,
I said goodbye to Him.
I never talked to Him again."

"Then one sunny day,
I saw the old mans face.
Front page obituary,
He was a millionaire."

"He left His fortune to,
some guy He barely knew.
His kids were mad as hell,
but Me, I'm doing well."

"And I dropped by today,
to say thanks and pray.
And I left a six pack right there on His grave.
And I said, God is great, beer is good, people are crazy"

**cue the church choir adorned in religious clothing**

Repeat "God is great, beer is good, people are crazy" about 6 more times in unison with the church choir.

--------------------

Wow ....... what a stupid, ass backwards, country song. But that part is a gimmie.

Soooooooooo ... where to start. Hmmmmmmmm. Young guy meets old guy in bar, they start chatting small talk, politics, women. All is normal. But then they talk about God's grace (in a bar), and then all the hell they raised. (kinda offensive in the same sentence I think). Then the old man says "God is great, beer is good, people are crazy." Now this seems to really go off on some odd tangent if you ask Me. Those words really don't go together at any given time. I would boast that God might be a little pissed at this statement if He existed according to Biblical standards.

More small talk continues as they keep on drinking the night away. Old man comments that cigarettes are gonna kill Him, and oddly enough they do a short time later. But He still thinks God is great ... yada yada. Next thing you know, old man is dead, His obituary reads that He was filthy rich, and He left His kids nothing and gave it all to a person He hardly knew. (kinda rude, but then I'm not country, so what do I know).

So the young man goes to the old mans grave, says a prayer and puts a 6 pack of beer on His grave. Hmmmmmm, prayer, alcohol, and grave desecration. How is this normal? And as the song begins to close out an entire church choir appears singing "God is great, beer is good, people are crazy". Did you get that??? A church choir sings beer is good, people are crazy! Now this should piss off quite a few congregations out there for sure.

This entire song borders on blasphemy of the Holy God ... and yet, it's accepted as a number one country hit across the United States. In bars across America this song is played and everyone apparently raises their glass of brew in the air and shouts "God is great, beer is good ......"

Now if this would have been proposed 50 years ago, I think there might be a price out on the singers head. But it's not 50 years ago, it's today, and it's much more accepted. God is not the vicious, jealous, pissed off God of the Bible, He's changed .. He's passive, accepting, lenient, loving, care free. Why did God change ... well ... He didn't, people did. People have changed God into thinking whatever they want to describe Him. And this is how it's always been. Thousands of years ago, God said stone people to death for sinning (it's right there in the big book, look it up), but God don't do that anymore .. because WE don't do that anymore. Why do you think we have so many different religions about so many different versions of God??? Because God evolves right along with humans ... because when it's all said and done, God is a figment of our imagination.

Now you might find it strange that someone would dissect this song and analyze it the way I have ... but I'm just strange enough to do just that. But the bottom line is things like this are exactly what changes our view of the imaginary God over time. Someone has a new 'take' on what he/she thinks God is ... people like the idea .. it's accepted, and now God is a slightly different God than He was just a generation ago. The only thing that drives Me nuts is that people don't see themselves doing this and realizing that THEY are making up God as they go. Instead they'd rather believe that God loves it when your plastered in a smoky, seedy bar, holding up your glass of pale ale, singing praises to His name.

In closing. God is imaginary, beer is OK, and people are just plain fucking stupid.

More damning evidence


So the 'bible thumpers' out there think the world is 6000 years old, and that about 4000 years ago God flooded the world and Noah and family were the only human survivors.

Well now there are plenty of reasons to show that this story is complete bullshit, but I'll just dwell on one of them.

How about DNA and the gene pool? You see, science can look at different generations of people today and actually measure the changes in the gene pool from people. For instance, they can measure a Great Great Grandpa, a Great Grandpa, a Grandpa, a Father, and a Son .. and actually see the extremely small changes in the DNA with each passing generation. This is what's called evolution! Small changes in things over time!

NOW ... if you take all the diverse population of people on the earth today from all walks of life and from all four corners of the earth, you have a huge gene pool to deal with. And to 'bottleneck' all that into ONE FAMILY just 4000 years ago leads you to one conclusion. IMPOSSIBLE!!!

IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO HAVE THE VASTNESS OF THE GENE POOL THAT WE HAVE TODAY IF IT WAS SHRUNK TO 1 FAMILY ONLY 4000 YEARS AGO!!!!!!!!!!

Did you get that creationist???? Does is sink in your head yet???? This is a testable, plausible, demonstrable, provable scientific process that not only CAN be done .. but HAS been done!! Nothing could survive that much extreme change in the DNA sequence in that short of period of time!!! I just does NOT work! End of story. AMEN!!!
