Just remember that you're standing on a planet that's evolving
And revolving at nine hundred miles an hour,
That's orbiting at nineteen miles a second, so it's reckoned,
A sun that is the source of all our power.
The sun and you and me and all the stars that we can see
Are moving at a million miles a day
In an outer spiral arm, at forty thousand miles an hour,
Of the galaxy we call the 'Milky Way'.
Our galaxy itself contains a hundred billion stars.
It's a hundred thousand light years side to side.
It bulges in the middle, sixteen thousand light years thick,
But out by us, it's just three thousand light years wide.
We're thirty thousand light years from galactic central point.
We go 'round every two hundred million years,
And our galaxy is only one of millions of billions
In this amazing and expanding universe.

The universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding
In all of the directions it can whizz
As fast as it can go, at the speed of light, you know,
Twelve million miles a minute, and that's the fastest speed there is.
So remember, when you're feeling very small and insecure,
How amazingly unlikely is your birth,
And pray that there's intelligent life somewhere up in space,
'Cause there's bugger all down here on Earth.

It is an interesting song..and obviously a tribute to Intelligent
Design to think the Cosmos was created so WE could have a place to
call home (earth) . Or ... is it more rational to force oneself to
believe that the scientifically verified 250+ extremely narrow
tweaked Physics Constants of our Cosmos which are are ALL needed,
simultaneously, because each depends on the other for its own
sustainence so Earth can be here so we can be here.....was just 'a
fluke of an accident with no purpose' ? At one time i thought
perhaps i did have enough faith to be an atheist...but I just dont
have that sort of required faith . Actually, no one else does
either...so, why are you a proclaimed atheist ? Because you dont want
a personal Creator to exist ? How come ? Thanks.

Bullshit. Let's see a list.

This makes no sense. Can you give some examples of what you mean?

> so Earth can be here so we can be here.....

Fallacy of assuming one's conclusion.

>was just 'a
>fluke of an accident with no purpose' ?

There are hundreds of billions of galaxies, each with hundreds of
billions of stars. Why would you find it a "fluke" that at least one
of them has a planet capable of supporting life?

> At one time i thought
>perhaps i did have enough faith to be an atheist...but I just dont

No faith is required to not believe in something for which there is no
evidence. (Hint: your personal incredulity is not evidence for
anything).

> Actually, no one else does
>either...so, why are you a proclaimed atheist ?

Because I see no reason to believe in unsupported claims of magical
beings.

> Because you dont want
>a personal Creator to exist ?

Actually, I really don't care one way or the other. Reality is
indifferent to our desires.

> How come ? Thanks.

A couple of my favorite quotes on the subject:

What do you expect to see? A universe which - isn't - suitable for
our survival?!
-- unknown

Miraculous Constant - Many theists use the existence of the constants
to argue for God, but what they fail to realize is that these are just
properties of the universe we live in. It is like saying : "It's lucky
that pi is exactly 3.1415926... otherwise circles would look funny!"

What is it with you and this whole 'creator' fetish, anyway? It's really
kinda freaky. Could it be that it is because you *want* a personal creator
to exist?

As for the rest, when you understand why puddles 'just happen' to reside in
little holes 'exactly suitable' for their shape, maybe you'll understand how
it is humankind exists in an environment that 'just happens' to be suitable
for us. It really isn't rocket science - kind of sad that you don't get it
despite it being explained to you so many times. Or maybe you don't want to
get it, because you really REALLY want a personal creator to exist? Life and
death are just so scary otherwise, aren't they?

So sad.

It really does boil down to this simple truth. For all their claims
of what their imaginary god supposedly said, the religious zealots
can't produce a single syllable that was directly uttered by any god,
only hearsay of what they think their so-called god might have said,
if it happened to exist.

As far as we know right now, this tiny little planet is the only place in
the universe where humans can live without technological protection. Even
on earth, much of the surface is salt water and humans cannot live there
permanently without protection. On the dry land, much of it is too cold,
too hot, too high or too dry for humans.

If the universe was created for humans, how come most of it will kill an
unprotected human, sometimes within seconds?

Yes - I don't understand how they can say this universe was designed

I challenge superstition/religion, magical belief systems vs. critical
thinking and the
validity of so-called "sacred texts." I dare to ask the question,
"Is it true just because most people believe it?" Science
is not for emotional irrationalists; it's for thinking adults who
aren't afraid to
question their own deeply-held religious beliefs. God is just an
imaginary friend for adults after thousands of scientific
experiments there is no evidence for a god.

The "fine tuning" myth has been thoroughly debunked. Nature is
indifferent to life. Human life is simply a by-product of the current
local environment. We fit the niche so here we are. The universe
and the earth were NOT designed so we could exist.

Given a different environment, life would be different (silicon
based?) or like Mars where no complex life forms at all exist (as far
as we know).

..becuase the belief in a Creator makes people stupid. Its an excuse
to remain ignornat and lazy. Faith in a non-exitent entity provides
zero answers about nature. That's a dangerous concept to base your
life on.

Ice Ice Baby lyrics

"Ice Ice Baby"
by Vanilla Ice
from "To the Extreme"

Yo, VIP, Let's kick it!
Ice Ice Baby
Ice Ice Baby
All right stop
Collaborate and listen
Ice is back with my brand new invention
Something grabs a hold of me tightly
Flowin like a harpoon daily and nightly
Will it ever stop?
Yo--I don't know
Turn off the lights and I'll glow
To the extreme I rock a mic like a vandal
Light up a stage and wax a chump like a candle.
Dance
Bum rush the speaker that booms
I'm killin your brain like a poisonous mushroom
Deadly, when I play a dope melody
Anything less that the best is a felony
Love it or leave it
You better gain way
You better hit bull's eye
The kid dont play
If there was a problem
Yo, I'll solve it
Check out the hook while my DJ revolves it
Ice Ice Baby Vanilla (4X)
Now that the party is jumping
With the bass kicked in, the Vegas are pumpin'
Quick to the point, to the point no faking
Cooking MC's like a pound of bacon
Burning 'em if they're ain't quick and nimble
I go crazy when I hear a cymbal
And a hi hat with a souped up tempo
I'm on a roll and it's time to go solo
Rollin in my 5.0
With my ragtop down so my hair can blow
The girlies on standby
Waving just to say HI
Did you stop?
No--I just drove by
Kept on pursuing to the next stop
I bust a left and I'm heading to the next block
That block was dead
Yo--so I continued to A1A Beachfront Ave.
Girls were hot wearing less than bikinis
Rockman lovers driving Lamborghinis
Jealous 'cause I'm out getting mine
Shay with a guage and Vanilla with a nine
Reading for the chumps on the wall
The Chumps are acting ill because they're so full of eight balls
Gunshots ranged out like a bell
I grabbed my nine--
All I heard were shells
Fallin on the concrete real fast
Jumped in my car, slammed on the gas
Bumper to bumper the avenue's packed
I'm tryin to get away before the jackers jack
Police on the scene
You know what I mean
They passed me up, confronted all the dope fiends
If there was a problem
Yo, I'll solve it
Check out the hook while my DJ revolves it
Ice Ice Baby Vanilla (4X)
Take heed, 'cause I'm a lyrical poet
Miami's on the scene just in case you didn't know it
My town, that created all the bass sound
Enough to shake and kick holes in the ground
'Cause my style's like a chemical spill
Feasible rhymes that you can vision and feel
Conducted and formed
It's a hell of a concept
We make it hype and you want to step with this
Shay palays on the fade, sliced like a ninja
Cut like a razor blade so fast
Other DJ's say, "Damn"
If my rhyme was a drug
I'd sell it by the gram
Keep my composure when it's time to get loose
Magnetized by the mic while I kick my juice
If there was a problem
Yo--I'll solve it!
Check out the hook while Deshay revolves it.
Ice Ice Baby Vanilla (4X)
Yo man--let's get out of here!
Word to your mother!
Ice Ice baby Too Cold
Ice Ice baby Too Cold Too cold (3X)

Quintessential closed mindedness and hatefulness in its passive
aggressive form.

But as long as you're going to do it anyway, you can try this fun
experiment at the same time.

Message from TCDun's Wife Kathy:

Homemaking with Kathy! --presents--
Kathy's Book Corner

Bob Avakian "Away with all Gods"
Hi. I'm Kathy. And this is Kathy's Book Corner.

Unlike most book clubs where ladies only read books that they like,
Kathy's Book Corner looks at ugly books that are dangerous to
Christianity and should be banned. I read them, and then I burn them.

A few weeks ago, a man came to the Best Church of God to spread his
Communist Anarchistic Atheist propaganda in the form of the book. This
book, titled "Away With all Gods,” was written by one Mr. Bob
Avakian.

For those of you who are smart and don't pay attention to such loony
toons living in Crazy Town, Bob Avakian is in charge of the
Revolutionary Communist Party. In other words, Bob Avakian is not
American. (And he is going to Hell)

I found "Away With All Gods" to be scary and wrong. This book is the
transcription of two speeches which leads me to believe that Bob is
lazy and doesn't know how to write. He just scribbles down the
heathenous speeches he gives to pot-smoking college students. And his
grammar is atrocious! He doesn't capitalize the word "God". Not once.
It's always supposed to be capitalized, but only when it's referring
to our God. pagan gods and muhammad are all lower case.

Evil Bob Avakian believes that all religions are bad for you and that
they pollute our minds with superstition to turn us into mindless
drones. Mindless drones? Mindless drones. Mindless drones...

Where was I? Oh yes. bob avakian's stinky book of paganism:

Because bob is a stupid anti-Christ, he asks a lot of questions. As we
all know, in Proverbs the bible says “Trust in the Lord with all your
heart, in your own intelligence rely not.” So what’s the use of
questions? Oh. I just asked a question. Ooops! See how easily the
devil can spread his evilishness? There it is again! Shoot. Let’s all
take a moment to say 3 “Hail Mary’s.”

Now that we’re protected by Christ Power, we can confront one of
avakian’s sinfully contageous questions. Page 24-

"Why not tell people the truth, and help them understand reality as it
actually is, including the real causes of sickness and affliction?"
Well, bob, that's because the Bible is the truth. It's an ancient book
of true things that are always right and accurately define our
reality. Everyone knows that the real cause of sickness and affliction
is Satan. And that the only cure for feeling crummy is God. See Psalm
41:3: "The LORD will sustain him on his sickbed and restore him from
his bed of illness." Not a doctor, the Lord!

A lot of things angered me in this demon manifesto. For instance, Mr.
Avakian says on page 27 that Jesus' words and actions should be
"evaluated just like those of any other human being which is what
Jesus was and all that he was". That is so not true. Jesus is the Son
of God. So He is the Christ- He is God AND Man. At the same time and
with a ghost named the Holy Spirit. It's the Trinity. And all of Them
Are Equal. And the Same Person. But not A person. A God. But a Ghost,
Too. And The Christ. Look it up in the Bible, ladies.

You may be thinking, "Wow, Kathy! This book is bad news bears!" But I
haven't gotten to the very worst thing yet. It's on page 666. I mean,
page 225:

"There is no God- therefore there is no sin."
If there is no sin, then there can't be a death penalty. And then what
about all those evil criminals?
Speaking of criminals, Bob Avakian is also a baby killer. That's
right. He is pro-choice. Bob says this on page 182:

"What lies at the heart of the issue of abortion, and of the Christian
Fascist's unrelenting attempt to make it illegal, is not the killing
of babies (which is scientifically wrong in the first place) but it is
the chaining of women in oppressive relations in which their essential
role is reduced to that of being the property of men and the breeders
of their children, according to "god's plan" and the dictates of
theocratic interpreters of "god's will".
Except for the part about him hating babies, I didn’t understand a
word of that. Did you, ladies? Silly Bob Avakian. If you want to
convert people to your satanic cult, you need to use smaller words.
God wrote the bible so everyone could understand it. That’s why it’s
so easy and fun to read. Not to mention concise. Looks like Mr.
Avakian has a lot to learn from Christianity!

Well, that was Kathy's Book Corner- telling you to rush to the nearest
bookstore and buy "Away with All Gods" by Bob Avakian. But before you
open it, burn it. Burn it hard.

Praise Jesus!

You're not missing much. Think of the riff from the start of Queen & David

Another one of Chick's amusing tracts! Thank you; I had not read that one
before. It is interesting in that for the first part of the tract,
Charlie and other construction workers raise very valid reasons to
doubt the accuracy of the claims of the Bible, which are never addressed.
The most obvious is that the vast majority of the world's population will
die without ever having heard of Jesus. According to Chick, those people
will be condemned to eternal torture, when their only "crime" was being
born in the wrong culture. How could such a God be considered anything
other than a sadistic monster?

Typical Xtian deep thinking: raise valid objections to the
bible, then, in the end, Jesus tells him that since he didn't believe the
bible, he's fucked.

My second favorite rational wrinkle: the old "Jesus had a shitty weekend
for your sins." He's God. He's "all powerful". He lives forever. He
spends one afternoon being tortured, as so many mortals had also
suffered, and we are supposed to be impressed by his great sacrifice? We
are supposed to be obliged to him, when we had no choice in it?

And like I said,if you refuse to see the truth ,because you are brainwashed
or because it is easier to remain ignorant and irresponsible ,so that you
can remain in your sin and fallen state without changing your heart and mind
and lifestyle ,then how sad for you.But perhaps some will investigate and be
saved,even if you wish to remain ignorant ? Those who refuse to see the
truth of the evidence that Christ provides are the ones who probably believe
in things like the tooth fairy and darwin and Santa Claus,etc.
Investigate,search and find the life boat or go down with the Titanic (the
World and it's brainwashed ignorance).And as I said,I will pray for you as
you attack and hate me (and Christ).

He's not a xian, and because he is not a xian he has learned to accept
life as it is. To include those that like you, cannot survive without the
remains of invisible support.

> Real Science investigates all possibilities.

So, you were never exposed to science in high school then? One of the
many things I learned about science in high school was, it answers
questions that have a basis in real and physical presence. It doesn't do
metaphysics, and theology, get real. Now when you can trot your god out
for science to observe, or point to activities that only a god would be
capable of doing, then science might have something to work with. But it
does not investigate very small words of three letters that have no
substantial support. Science is not required to investigate your
gullibility of matter what you call it. Now if you want to fund such
investigation, have at it. You might even get somebody that he is a
scientist in the appropriate field, whatever that might be, investigate
your claims. But as of right now, there is no discipline known as god
research because, there's no need. Until a
god/goddess/demon/spirit/Angel/bogeyman/otherworldly entity makes its
physical presence known, there's nothing to investigate
it's only when required for a god, it's such a common requirement for so
many things as to make the term useless. It must be supernatural. Strange
thing that, if it's supernatural, it cannot react with the natural. Once
it has done that, it becomes a natural event & subject to investigation
by science. Again, I'm not certain which disciplines would be involved,
but that's your problem and not mine. Science is not a unified field of
study but a conglomeration of many disciplines. None of which are
involved with, philosophy or theology.

> Investigate here,if you really don't have a closed mind...

I have been at that site, and my ribs are still sore from laughing. It's
pretty, and designed to appeal to the easily bemused, as well as the
ignorant. Apparently, in at least one case, it works.

Oh yes, another website I have failed to bookmark. I don't like
speculation presented as fact, nor do I accept as a working hypothesis,
anything that is not a hypothesis that can lead to a theory which can
lead to scientific investigation and verification. Save your mumbo-jumbo
& whatever you do, do not subscribe to any of the following. You may
accidentally learn something to your displeasure. Mind you, I wouldn't
mind. But the use of publications meant for people to actually study
mythology, primarily xian mythology.

> And like I said,if you refuse to see the truth ,because you are

You haven't said anything worth noticing or listening to yet.

The truth according to you, or reality 101. There is a striking
difference, one so striking that science does not even bother to deal
with your version of the truth.

> brainwashed or because it is easier to remain ignorant and

The man is not a xian, nor is it as I can tell, a follower of one of the
revealed gods of the desert. That would include the original, �l, and his
two redheaded stepchildren. Xianity Islam.

> irresponsible ,so that you can remain in your sin and fallen state

Sin? What mark have you given for him to miss? Are you attempting to use
the so-called religious term universally? If so, you have missed the
mark. You see, you're doing your posturing from apparently, one of the
sports groups. The only thing sharing commonality among members of the
atheist newsgroup & those groups, is a weird affection for sports. Maybe
I am one of the few that do not have that affliction, but I recognize it
for what it is. Like religion, it's big business.
As to a fallen state, fallen from what? Your phobias are not binding on
the remainder of the human race. And that's a very good thing I should
not need to tell you.

> without changing your heart and mind and lifestyle ,then how sad for

I have no need to change my heart, it's working very well thank you just
the same. I'm not existing, and therefore do not need nor desire another
chance at life on this planet and a delay in the so-called afterlife
which is heaven for those that have a fear of this life.

> you.But perhaps some will investigate and be saved,even if you wish to

Child, I have investigated the gods of humanity for close to 60 years.
There's only one thing they have in common, they can all be wrong. He
considers over 25,000 of the critters, that's not a very good brag to
make in public. But of course maybe you have a different god in mind that
the remainder of humanity. It also can be wrong but according to your
claims, he cannot be right if it's the xian god. Of course, you cannot
accept that because you believe otherwise, but disbelieving in your gods
gives you a woody when you encounter it in real life and you go into the
thundering power in moral inferiority indignation mode. You can't help
it, the responses are Pavlovian, and come with the territory of a true
believer are you your to be pitied, but you have crawled into the atheist
newsgroup group and bark like a dog that needs food and water, and
expects filet mignon and the finest of wines. instead of the dry dog food
they get. Get used to it. As long as you do to posturing here, someone is
going to hand you your ass with regularity. And they are going to enjoy
it.

> remain ignorant ? Those who refuse to see the truth of the evidence

Evidence claimed is not the same as evidence provided. Wait, you have a
holy book, a series of writings attributed to authors that were long dead
at the time of their authorship, or quite possibly one very sick
individual during his lifetime, had he existed. It's unknown with any
degree of accuracy whether Saul, the founder of xianity, really existed.
We find nothing about him from anywhere else except xian writings. Now
supposedly, because it's a holy book, you accept Rama as being real as
well. Well of course you don't, because that's not your pet god. Why
should you be given consideration that you refuse to give others is a
question only you can answer. And please, do the public a courtesy, don't
answer publicly.

> that Christ provides are the ones who probably believe in things like

Christ, the anointed one? When did he arrive? I'm sure the Jews would
have noticed or they have a long list of failed Messiah's. And yet, his
name is conspicuously absent in only to be found in the Greek Testaments.
What's that you say, what about all those supposedly contemporary authors
that mention him. Well no, they don't. They do mention Christians, but
are not contemporary in the first century when supposedly your man about
town was around. In fact, the whole story a recent fabrication and
misapplication of previous Hebrew Bible claims. The crucifixion, an aroma
law it could not have happened. If anything, he would have been stoned
for being a heretic, by the Jewish population. Crucifixion was not for
the ordinary criminal, that's what the mines were for. Along with various
other places where slaves were used. But of course that does not agree
with your myopic and limited understanding of your mythology, and frankly
I don't give a damn.

> the tooth fairy and darwin and Santa Claus,etc. Investigate,search and
> find the life boat or go down with the Titanic (the World and it's

The world isn't going anywhere without the intervention of people like
you within the next 5 billion years. And then it's going to go away. It's
going to be a rather spectacular finish if you are far away to watch and
not get burned. What's going to happen, the sun is going to go red giant
& then red dwarf and encompass the earth, and quite probably the
entire solar system in an envelope of expanding gases that will strip
away all atmosphere as well as surface material. That material, will go
into the universe at large where eventually, it will be recycled into new
solar systems. Quite possibly, systems are entirely unlike ours, less
likely, systems very close to ours. But for that, you need the
information astronomy, a discipline as well as a science, can provide and
I am not an astronomer. I could even be wrong about the sequence, for I
do not follow astronomy. But gods, and people like you that like to
pretend to be able to make god claims, then I have a mild interest.

How do you define your god? Big daddy in the sky, the source of all
instant gratification? It sounds like it. You know more understand your
mythology than I understand quantum physics.

Nobody's attacking you or your pet god, and hatred, well I suppose you
need to get your martyr points somewhere & claiming hatred where there is
none, is as good a way as any. You're not worthy of hate, and your
Christ, why would I hate your pet?

walksalone and had wondered how long it was going to take some bleater to
try and whizz all over what could have been a fun thread, and now I know.

By the way, should you respond to this, you will have removed any doubt
of the fact that your IT can control the atheist newsgroup because,
you're going where you belong, the trash file. What does it mean to
everybody but you, I will not even see your name let alone your drivel.

Bye-bye ,flush.

Ok, you win. You proved that your god is the best there ever was at hid

Now, trot him out here so that we can give him his reward.

A small favor & request on behalf of myself & other readers. When I get
long winded like that, & you respond, can you remove any text you are not
responding to? I, & I'm almost certain, others would appreciate that.

walksalone who does not snip nor set followups as often as he should, &
knows it.

Yes. If you have evidence for Jesus or God, trot it out. Let's look at it.
