His God does love the smell of Blood just ask Jeptha's daughter lol.

Seriously he's showing signs of a nervous breakdown I hope there is someone near him to call for the men in white coats before he does anything drastic to himself.

True.
Whatever you do, don't read the Bible for a moral code: it advocates ... atheists — and nothin' will get you there faster than readin' the damn Bible.~ Penn Jillette

Still there was someone else, long ago who said nearly the same thing. I'm thinking maybe Mark Twain.

A nice long vacation wouldn't hurt him. Maybe he will get a chance to actually read the bible, without having his witch doctor there, translating every word into another coin or two, into the collection plate.

The 10%'ers want a nice safe fluffy lubby-dubby soft god for themselves and a monstrous spitting cobra god for the rest of us. I imagine it would shake him to the core, to even consider that the god probably said exactly what he wanted mankind to hear. LOL! It's not the unbelievers who may have need for rugrat recipes. We'll not be the ones obeying old crack head Jehovah.

You can’t understand it anyway. It’s like way over your head. The Bible reading requires an objective reader. And any atheist is far from being objective. Understanding it is beyond your scope of understanding.

I think he said it advocates racism intolerance and slavery. Something along those lines. And he is right.

yeah...that must be it.

That and the fact that your bible teaches how to keep slaves, beat women and children and demonstrates your peaceful living god's violent and bloody rampages against his own people..

Yeah, a great rag of a book you're got there, a pity it's a pack of bullsh*t unproven lies and stupid and ignorant people follow blindly and arrogantly.

You remember your idol Mary Madeline O'Hare.

You remind me of her. A old worn out and cantankerous woman. Ready for the nursing home. There is nothing more ugly than an old women who is miserable and hates life. The only wisdom you have is snarling criticism of people who kept it together had made a better go of it than you.

At one time you may have been considered beautiful. But those days are long gone. They have been gone for ages. That’s the way youth is, it’s here one day and gone the next.

All that’s left now is a miserable old witch with no hopes of a better tomorrow or afterlife. You played your hand on the table of life and lost. Your free lifestyle has left you with nothing but brokenness and darkness.

Yes, Atheism has served you well. You have absolutely nothing to look forward too. Nothing………….

So no proof of god or that you're not a religious liar, lying about your god, claiming it is absolute truth, with no proof, all the while recruiting for your desperate cult of liars.

Making excuses for the bible's screw ups must be exhausting for the religious. Today I was reading the myth of Moses again and interesting to note that God hardend the heart if Pharaoh! That's right people perhaps Pharaoh would have been receptive to let the Hebrews go but God wanted to show off. Commit some infanticide oh what an awesome God!

Slaves, never owned any.

Never beat a women, never been arrested for domestic violence. I’m not sure you can say the same thing. I wouldn’t have been certified to work in law enforcement with a criminal record. My record is clean. Again I can’t say the same for you.

I did spank my children when they were children but there was never any beatings. Never did I hit my kids in the face or head. Today they are both grown and with college degrees. One is a Teacher working on his third degree, his second graduate degree.

The other was a masterful surgical nurse who now works for an insurance company.

I have been married to the same woman for 35 years. How many divorces have you been through now? At least two or maybe three? Women don’t like to live with tyrants who are also a**holes.

I seems if you would have read the bible and lived a Christian life you wouldn’t be the miserable soul that you are today.

I actually enjoy this. I enjoy going toe to toe with religious bigots who have an IQ no higher than a Buffalo.

You know that got the big heads like the Buffalo, the horns like a Buffalo but the brains smaller than a field mouse.

You're working defense. It's never a good place to be.

Daily Horoscope for May 18

Virgo

Matters of the heart take an unexpected turn today. You might be strongly attracted to someone you've never looked at twice until now, or you could fall for someone who's much older or younger than you. If you're already involved in a relationship, either you or your partner will want to make it more exciting and spontaneous. Is this a suggestion that will go down well?
