Closing Comments – 4 – Rejection of the God Lie. 8226;•••. This is the 39th and final post in a series dealing with what I call “the God Lie”. For this final post, my goal is to add some closing comments on the rejection of the God Lie. When convenient, I’ll illustrate my comments with insights entertainingly created between 1985 and 1995 by Bill Watterson. Of rejecting the God Lie seems to be the Sumerian statement from approximately 4500 years ago:. In the garden of a humble person a priest could cut a...

Clerical Quackery 7 – Physics versus Metaphysics in Ancient Greece – 3 – Aristotle.

To try to reveal some of Aristotle’s astounding accomplishments, I’ll first sketch a little historical background for his ideas and summarize a little of the basics of Aristotelian logic, which in an earlier chapter. God is love;. Therefore, God exists.

Clerical Quackery 9 – Greek Influences on Judaism as illustrated in Ecclesiastes and Daniel. And The Book of Daniel. Such transformations were beyond those aspects of Zoroastrianism incorporated into Judaism during the approximately two centuries that the Persians ruled the Jews, from 540–332 BCE. The Greek-induced transformations occurred after the army of Alexander II of Macedonia (356–325 BCE) conquered the Persian Empire and the Greeks began their approximately two-centuries rule over...8226; And aft...

Basic Ideas Borrowed for the Bible. If humanity could thereby eliminate the entirely unnecessary problems in the world caused by religions, then we'd have much better chances of finding intelligent solutions to our real problems, with sustainable development, diminished violence, and liberation of the potentials of every human. In his amazing 1921 book The Story of Religious Controversy,. Which is available at a number of internet sites (e.g., here. I do not wish to press any particular theory of the ori...

Clerical Quackery 12 – The Corporate Christ. Demanded that they should be rewarded for their “altruistic” behavior. Consequently, when a group of con artists offered an absolutely fantastic reward (namely, eternal life in paradise) simply for behaving in a normal, social manner (plus, of course, paying 10% of their income to the con artists! Then people leapt (and still leap) at the opportunity. In the Beginning…. Originally, Christianity appears to have been. How unsearchable his judgments, how untracea...

The Pathetic Muhammad (pbuh). 8226;••. The alleged founder of Islam was Muhammad (c.570–632 CE). In contrast to the cases for Moses and Jesus, there’s not much doubt that Muhammad existed, but similar to the cases for those alleged “founders” of Judaism and Christianity, existing stories about Muhammad are of questionable reliability. His “official biographies” (called sira. Allegedly containing the traditions and sayings of Muhammad (called the hadith. An illustration is the story. Of Ibn Ishaq (750), b...

Closing Comments – 2 – Promotion of the God Lie. 8226;•••. As I briefly reviewed in the previous post, the origins of the God Lie seem to have been a series of mistaken ideas by primitive people, mistakes that clerics later manipulated into lies. These mistakes can be organized into two broad categories. One category includes misinterpretations of experiences and misunderstandings of natural phenomena, including:. 3) Their mistake that they, too, would experience an “afterlife”,. 6) Their mistake of perm...
