For well you know that its a fool who plays it cool

It irritates me that the religious crazes have done a carbon copy of the design/format of the Atheist but campaign logo.  Only this time, instead of saying “there probably isn’t a God” they say “there DEFINITELY is a God etc.”  It’s not the fact that they carbon copied someone else’s idea that fucks me off, it’s the fact that they have been allowed to say “definitely” were as the atheists were only allowed to say “probably.”  This really fucks me off.  

There’s this little thing called science that gives the atheist lobby quite the leg to stand on when the imaginary man in the sky debate is brought up for the gazillionth time.  I would like to think it’s all the actions/ death throws of a dying beast but I think it will be a number of years before we can see this in a conclusive fashion.  Blatantly Christianity will be the first to go.  It’s the most ridiculous.  Don’t get me wrong, I love a good story but the bible is not a good story.  It’s just bloody boring.

Oh dear, dear Freud:

“The idea of God was not a lie but a device of the unconscious which needed to be decoded by psychology. A personal god was nothing more than an exalted father-figure: desire for such a deity sprang from infantile yearnings for a powerful, protective father, for justice and fairness and for life to go on forever. God is simply a projection of these desires, feared and worshipped by human beings out of an abiding sense of helplessness. Religion belonged to the infancy of the human race; it had been a necessary stage in the transition from childhood to maturity. It had promoted ethical values which were essential to society. Now that humanity had come of age, however, it should be left behind.” A History of God
