After dark late Sunday night we get a knock on the door only to find two MORmONS on the other side asking if we wanted to hear about Jesus. I told them I used to be a CULT recruiter like them and I knew far more about their CULT than they wanted to know. They laughed and asked if there was anything they could do for us. I told them, no and said goodbye, which saved me a lot of time arguing wi

Like Einstein said, "A man's ethical behaviour should be based effectually on sympathy, education, and social ties and needs; no religious basis is necessary. Man would indeed be in a poor way if he had to be restrained by fear of punishment and hope of reward after death. (Albert Einstein, "Religion and Science", New York Times Magazine, 9 November 1930) I cannot imagine a G

If they identify as MORmONs, they should be called MORmONs. But if they identify as "Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints" who are they trying to kid? They're still MORmONS. Don't expect me to use 11 words when one works.

The Mormons killed near the US-Mexico border appear to be members of a fundamentalist sect that is separate from the mainstream Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. CNN reached out to LDS-Church spokesperson. Here's what he said: “This does sound like a terrible and tragic thing. Unfortunately, I don’t have any information, as from what I can tell, these were members of a polyga

The Deist framers of America's Constitution decided that religion was good for society and needed to be protected, because without it people would not feel compelled to obey the law. However, our jails are not filled with Atheists, they're filled with believers. That and more secular societies, like Northern Europe and Asia, have much lower crime rates than more religious societies, like Ameri

"Richard Dawkins has now come out and repudiated his previous belief that Christianity should be banished from society even more firmly. In fact, he told The Times, ending religion—once his fervent goal—would be a terrible idea, because it would “give people a license to do really bad things.” Despite the fact that Dawkins has long argued that the very idea of the God of the Bible be

Mormons maintain racist 19th Century myths that were used to justify enslaving blacks and genocide against American Indians, whom they continue to dehumanize by propagating the racist myth that they are degenerate Jews who were cursed with dark skin due to the sins of their fathers. Mormon scriptures are vastly more white supremacist than any other scriptures, consistently associating whiteness

I don't believe it did require a god, since Viruses have DNA in them and they're not alive, perhaps the DNA in viruses got here via frozen comet from another part of the universe

Saw this on FB "Every atheist should watch this!" Basic premise, it would be crazy to believe a book could be written by accident and DNA is far more complex than any book, so its even crazier to believe it got here by accident or came from nothing. So it had to be God, obviously! It has a clip of Richard Dawkins saying that obviously it didn't come about by accident, or from not

We are all hybrids. Africans are hybrids of the 12 different sub species of humans (Homos) who coexisted in Africa over the past million years. Non-Africans are hybridized with the sub-species of humans who coexisted with us in Europe (Neanderthals) and Asia (Denisovans) over the past 60,000 years, who predated Homo Sapiens in Europe by 200,000 yrs.

My list: How many wives did Joseph Smith have who were really married to his followers? And would your Dad be cool with letting Rusty Nelson have his way with your Mom? If so you are a son of a cuck who sings the praises of a rapist. What about you? Would you let Rusty Nelson abuse his power over you to rape your wife or teenage daughter, without consequences? If so, you are just as bad

So the JW's dropped by and naturally my atheist wife saw them and said, 'You handle this'. I opened the door and they started rambling on about God and asked me what I thought of God. I said, "I quit believing in God on 9-11, when He failed to intervene to stop it. I believe God is what we call Nature." They asked if I believed in the Bible. I said, "I believe it's a poorl

"The success of Mormonism depresses me. I mean, we KNOW that Joseph Smith was a charlatan. Everything about him screams charlatan and yet, plenty of respectable people, including Presidential Candidates, men in suites, appear to believe it." Then he goes on to explain why he was such a charlatan. The BoA has nothing to do with the original document. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v

I should add that this is proof of nothing but how super fake, super exaggerating (Lying) MORmONs are when they lie about how successful and happy they are. Everything about it is fake and it shows.

What I find interesting is that Joe Rogan loves Mormons and says they're his favorite type of people. Richard Dawkins shrugs his shoulders and says yeah maybe? Maybe being nice is fake A.F? I really don't think they're the nicest kind of people. I think they lie for a living. And their tribal. They're not very friendly unless they want you in their cool.

Sagan's god, "Yes I believe in god, if by the word, 'god', you mean the embodiment of the immutable laws that govern the universe." Which was also Hawking's god, "When I use the word, god, I use it in the same sense that Einstein used it, in the impersonal sense of the word, as in, the laws that govern nature. So to 'know the mind of god' is to know the laws that govern nature. I
