Atheist knowledge

I think most know at least some surface info on Egyptians, is there other more obscure but 'full of surprises' mobs to have a gander at?

The surface info is about the same as a single grain in a bucket of sand.

 

No worthwhile twenty second grabs I'm afraid, just steady studying.

Sister Mary Katherine entered the Monastery of Silence.

 

The Priest said,"Sister, this is a silent monastery. You are welcome here as long as you like ,but you may not speak until I direct you to do so."

 

Sister Mary Katherine lived in the monastery for 5 years before the Priest

 

said to her, "Sister Mary Katherine, you have been here for 5 years. You can speak two words."

 

Sister Mary Katherine said, "Hard bed." 'I'm sorry to hear that," the Priest said, "We will get you a better bed."

 

After another 5 years, Sister Mary Katherine was called by the Priest. "You may say another two words, Sister Mary Katherine."

 

"Cold food," said Sister Mary Katherine, and the Priest assured her that the food would be better in the future.

 

On her 15th anniversary at the monastery, the Priest again called Sister Mary Katherine into his office.

 

"You may say two words today".

 

"I quit," said Sister Mary Katherine.

 

"It's probably for the best", said the Priest, "You've done fook all but moan since you've been here.."

Yenn, the sun really is a god, at least its a flaming chariot driven by the god Apollo. One day he let his hoon son Phaeton have a go and Phaeton went too low over Africa and made the folk there black.

 

I reckon that is a more likely story than the Genesis account of " a greater light to rule the day" set into a "firmament" which has water above it.

God was created to explain the inexplicable, as we learn more, his/its/her job will become less demanding and he/it/she will not be credited/blamed for so much. This must require some readjustment of our thoughts. Atheist knowledge must grow as we learn more. Is there a limit? I don't think so, except any we impose on ourselves. Nev

I had an insight into religion when I came across computer viruses. That's what religion is, a computer virus which acts on the brain . It is even spread the same way.

 

The root cause is a side-effect of how our brain works... our thoughts feel like they belong to an internal spirit. Yes the illusion is totally false but it is very strong, so of course all primitive people believe in spirits.

 

The logical outcome of this line of thought is that religion is actually a disease.

And like all diseases it should be the subject of government action to remove the malady from the face of the earth for the sake of all. Yes I know unlike Polio it will be difficult but at least we could identify it for what it is - a delusional state of the mind.

vaccine ? anyone?

I'm currently having a look at "Flat Earthers", I didn't realise it had such a massive following and their explanations for why the world is as it is is just incredible, steeped in logic and very convincing surface arguments - nonsense of course but very entertaining!
