that came out of nowhere

What did? My ongoing and never ending hatred of many things and my nonchalant delivery of said hatred?

I can't get over the dumb **** some people believe hey. It's just truly, crushingly disappointing about the state of the species that we can advance thousands of years in some areas while simultaneously making utterly no progress in other areas, clinging onto things that by all rights should have been let go as part of natural growth.

How anyone can laugh at a bunch of islanders worshipping the sun, and then go sit in church every Sunday? Bad medicine.

Anyway, happier topics, I finally got a thing to let me do chin-ups in the backyard. Mad fun. I got a skipping rope too for a bit of light cardio, plus it'll double as transportation to stuffed animal tea parties.

God was pretty much invented by people to give themselves purpose because they were boring morons with no lives and they decided that by inventing the all purpose theist cop-out they would somehow be making their lives purposeful. Yeah.

I love stuffed animal tea parties.

yeah guys we obviously came from gunk after an interstellar kaboom created hot balls of gas over millions of years.

you cant prove that there is no god or how we came to be. we werent there.

You can't prove there is one. You weren't there.

I love that one, I really do. "I didn't come from pond scum!! Rar! Note my furrowed brows!" (aka cyanobacteria or something similar, I don't do science). No you came from your ****ing Mum; or failing that, a TEST TUBE IN A LAB, you know, that thing that SCIENCE can do.

I'm just venting.

Because billions of years of painfully slow evolution is SO MUCH harder to believe than we just appeared here one day and talked to animals and we all came from two people who ****ed and all our sins have been wiped clean by a 2000 year old zombie who will one day return with his invisible spirit friend to become a king or whatever the **** it goes. Makes perfect sense to me.

And people die every day. Regardless. Like it really matters.

You don't need to prove there is no god anymore than you need to prove that we aren't all steered around by giant purple zebras with puppet strings tied around their seven penises, because they all have seven each. Except for the females who have three.

The concept of god was invented by man to explain things that they couldn't explain at the time, that's it. (Well, that isn't completely it because there are numerous sociocultural and even biological reasons that religion spreads and persists, but I could spend my life analysing all that and I have better things to do, but I digress.) Before man dreamt it up, there was no concept of it. Anyone who can't wrap their head around that notion does not have a functioning cognisance as far as I'm concerned.

In other news, I just wiped out this spider in my house using the old Mortein plus open flame trick. I used a bigger dose of Mortein than usual and heard a pop when the flame hit it. For the life of me I can't find a trace of the creature. I now know what it is like to cast Disintegrate and have my target fail its save vs death.

okay im not going to discuss it with you since we disagree so vehemently

Just to be clear, I don't begrudge anyone their choice of beliefs. If I have a problem with something a person thinks or believes, it doesn't translate into a problem with them. That's just mean, I may as well hate someone for not liking potatoes.

I can't have blind faith. If you do you've pretty much been brainwashed as far as I'm concerned. Who believes in things that can't be shown? Seriously, you don't, I don't; we might say we do but we don't.

Blind faith and you're just supposed to "believe" that the corpse of Jesus will return to do... what? I forget. If I believe in something, or am going to be persuaded to be, I want some kind of guarantee. Like a warranty of sorts.

And why there are so many different religions? What makes yours better than anyone elses? And how is it that hard to at least comprehend the concept of evolution if you're open to mindlessly believing endless pages of bullshit.

People frustrate me.

I'm glad you said that because I would really get too carried away :P

Having said that a lot of my friends are Catholic.

I don't hate religion, really, I hate preaching.

I'd hate someone for not liking potatoes if they woke me up on weekends to hear about how bad they are and get heaps of pamphlets "confirming" that "fact".

See how I work?

Wait wait, tell me this one? Is this when you hose them and set them on fire?

My brother disintegrated a screen door doing that.

Haha nah.

I'm just using the flamethrower method.

The soak and light method does work too but damn it's sadistic. You sure as **** have to be careful where you try that one. There's very real collateral damage risks.

Trapping something on the floor within a ring of fire is worth doing at least once though.

If you have tiles.

Only if you have tiles, for the love of sweet Mary.

[QUOTE=TimJim;17479232]same. im religious but goddamn do i get tired of the same messages[/QUOTE]

I got into a debate of sorts about 4 years ago at my front door with one of these guys, he keeps coming back and I keep hiding/being annoying/not listening but he just doesn't get it. He thinks he'll get me one day.

Sometimes he brings his wife and daughter...

"Ever wonder why God lets bad things happen to good people?"

"Yeah, actually."

His eyes lit up and I never got rid of him.

Ahhhh. I would do that but I don't want to damage the paint. I hate the big mofo huntsman we get through here.

Apparently having one walk on your head is good for headaches... I don't know who came to this conclusion but I'll stick to panadol.

Someone who knows if he says that, at least one person is going to put a spider on their face.

:lol:

"Hey baby, you know what's good for a headache? Suckin' my dick."

I got an SMS before that is more or less to the same point as your little quote there. I've got my mojo back!

And no I wasn't the one implied to be doing the sucking. I already did that with the gay orgy who came through my work.

Should I or should I not see Wooten's clinic in my town?

Religion. I'm pretty "meh" about the whole thing. Everybody has their own set of beliefs, and there's no reason to infringe upon it. However, organized religion is where I have beef. At this point, it becomes a business, which slowly bridges the gap between government and religion, and has history has shown us, that is usually a bad idea. On top of that, the "sales calls" (like the church of LDS requires of all young mormons - to go out and preach and try to convert) feel almost rude - I don't solicit the churches with copies of [i]The Origin of Species[/i].

When they come to my door, I usually sit through their spiel and then tell them that I'm not interested and send them off.

[QUOTE=funkyhoney;17479246]Should I or should I not see Wooten's clinic in my town?[/QUOTE]

Absolutely see it. It'll be a good experience. Unless it costs heaps, in which case, think about it.

As retarded as religion is, I'll say one thing good about it. Catholic schoolgirls. Hosanna.
