Atheists should not have to compete in the marketplace of ideas
because they have nothing of value to exchange.

The Sheltered Workshop and rest home for tired atheist 'intellects'
henceforth known as Atheist Pleasantville, must go ahead so that
atheists don't have to have their idea challenged any more.

The rest of USENET urges atheists to seek the peace and quiet of a
controlled atheist orthodoxy.. freedom of thought really is not your
thing, you find the ideas of others to be annoying and want them
eradicated... this is a far more humane solution.. like a giant
Killfile where atheists retire en mass to the parlour and lock
themselves in.

B^]

Think of the endless self-congratulation, backslapping and mutual tool
fondling with no one making fun of you!

alt.atheism.satire has increasingly become a place where ATHEISM is
satirised, rather than atheits satirising everyone else.. so it should
be abandoned.. oh hang on.. I'm told it already has been! B^]

But you have overcome your objection so long as it's your posts that are
allowed, because you are an Atheist Pleasantville Regular, and it's the
other guy who gets censored.

Atheist democracy: only the Party Members may speak! B^D

Oh, you wouldn't want to exclude racism, sexism, misogyny,
threats of violence or any other perversion from 'regulars'
like this:

Exhibit A:

# From: "John Fraser" <jfr...@ns.sympatico.ca>
# Newsgroups: alt.religion.christian.pentecostal,alt.atheism
# Subject: Merry Christmas
# Date: Thu, 25 Dec 2008 10:21:03 -0400

# Hello Folks;
#
# I'd like to wish all of you a very Merry Christmas

Exhibit B:

Now exhibit A is rude, provocative and an affront to the Sensibilities
of the Pleasantvilly Chamber of Commerce and the Central Party
Committeee, it should obviously be rejected as noise, or 'preaching'
or some other pretexh.

Whereas exhibit B is a reasonable response and should be allowed.

You just want to screen out the ideas you don't like..

like EVERY ATHEIST REGIME in History, you want CENSORSHIP! B^]

Go for it, I say!!!

Show the world that atheism IS afraid of the open exchange of ideas,
that it opposes FREEDOM of THOUGHT and BELEIF and that the Atheist
regimes were not abberrations, but the ATHEIST NORM! B^]

But only a majority of the Card Carrying Regulars And Partymembers
(CCRAP). B^D

You don't want a real democracy! No atheist regime ever had one!

Precisely how counter-revolutionaries were dealt with by the Bolsheviks,
and Galileo browbeaten by the Church! B^]

And there you have it.

Galileo was a believer, he wouldn't have qualified as a Regular Guy.

Regulars define who is 'Regular' in Pleasantville!!!

Galileo's ideas would be too radical, not Regular enough.

BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHHAHAHAAAAAA

Note the Difference between the USA, other free, open and democratic
states, which all allow atheists the SAME RIGHTS to FREE SPEECH
as the majority theist have, and Atheist Pleasantville, where
theists and agnostics that are not approved by the Central Party
Committee would be SILENCED.

Just like every atheist tyranny in history!

And to think, for two years these atheist hypocrites have been
pretending that the atheist tyrannies were tyrannies because of the
Communist ideology, when clearly the anti-theist propaganda
and elimination of even the agnostics and other dissenters, is the
ATHEIST'S work!!!! 8^o

Aren't we all glad that is now out in the open.

B^]

But the USSR also used to brand dissidents as 'mentally Ill'
and have them incarcerated in Asylums and drugged...

surely Atheist Pleasantville wouldn't want to miss out on that fun?

>> rejected those from the loonies

BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA

Every TYRANNY defines the ideas they don't like as lunacy and
persecutes those who challenge the orthodoxy.


This is the new billboard when entering Atheist Pleasantville:

Oh, you think? B^D

A decade ago a small group of racist rednecks applied to have
aus.culture.true-blue become a moderated NG under their control.

Fair Dinkum true-blues opposed such an assault on free speech and told
them to fuck off and create their OWN NG,
aus.culture.true-blue.controlled or
aus.culture.true-blue.sheltered-workshop

They lost the vote and realising they were a tiny rump
which would probably wither and die they never proceeded
with creating a new, moderated sheltered workshop.

I urge the atheist purists, who really are too good for the rest of us,
to launch themselves ina hermetically sealed pod so they are free
of the annoying majority and the majority are FIANLLY, FREE OF THEM!

Yes, trotsky complained bitterly about the way Stalin acted on his

Why do atheists get married when its a religious notion controlled by

Not even dogs marry except in China.

Telos [122J3W1D] = Arch [3W1D] + c² [9(9²+1)/2]

If the circumference of the circle is PI (or rational PI), what then is
the centre?

Well Yes, it will bring about the global collapse of the Catholic Church
How should we the Free, Celebrate this the Queen's Jubilee?

We are not free and endure human rights abuses from catholic dogs.

"We have Jesus on the cross
Your cold love put him there.

What gives BroilJAB (Design...@wmconnect.com) away is his unusual
capacity as a claimed atheist, to call the Pontiff holy when he is in
fact perverse.

It would appear that once again, we have mongrel catholic dogs engaged
in public campaigns of disinformation and vilification of the truth,
which diminishes our human rights.

In relation to this notion of The Decade is the meaning of Yom Kippur as
a ritual of nullification held over a 10 day period commencing a new
Moon on 18 September 2001 (as my particular interest for synchronising
the centre of the Grapple Temporal / Noumenal Reality for a 5 day period
being #41 on 13 September 2001 as a centrifugal model comprising septet
#369 magic squares with the solar / lunar chronological cycle and
rational representation of PI / ENNEAD) and the Dead Sea Scroll
chronological principle which is a cosmological straight line--hence
transcendent--in having a starting point on the Equinox of Wednesday 20
March 1996 with a new Moon on Thursday 21 March for a base 7 Numbering
system intrinsic to the cosmogony as rational representation of PI.

In that for 3 x 364 days = 1092 days there was a lunar/solar comparison
of 3 x 354 lunar years + 30 days = 1092 days. There are in a cycle of 5
x 364 days + 182 days (as a 1/2 cycle) two fragments in the Dead Sea
Scroll relics related to the 1st day of the 7th solar month as occurring
on 12 September 2001 and the 21st priestly course starting on Sunday 16
September 2001 which fragment also brings together an association of the
solar and lunar cycles which appear to have been a readily observable
phenomenon.

In that this has according to the Dead Sea Scrolls, a reprise in a 294 x
364 day years as 6 Jubilees or 293 x 365.2423 days (just short of the
tropical years, but technologically better than the Julian calendar of
365.25 days instigated in 45 BCE and reformed in 1582 CE (1751 CE in
British Empire) by the Gregorian calendar reforms due to an
intercalation error resulting in a lost of synchronicity comprising a
magnitude loss of one day every 128 years. This forms the basis for
arguing a metaphysical and cosmological origin of language as 22
elements of the Hebrew letters which is otherwise shown geometrically as
an indestructible object (atom) in the association of the 10 as Decade
(as Greek and Ennead as Egyptian notions) and counts (number) and the 22
letters as 3 horizontal (Mother letters), 7 vertical lines (Double
letters) and 12 diagonal lines (Single letters):

In many instances, the Torah also uses words and phrases in ways that
cannot be understood in their literal sense. There are a number of very
obvious examples of this in the narrative of the Creation, for the
metaphysical events that took place at that time were far removed from
the natural order of the world we know today. They could not have been
accurately described in ways that we can understand, nor in language
that we can relate to. For example, the Torah tells us how God brought
the world into being through speech, when in fact He created the world
through a form of thought. When the Torah describes God's thought
process as speech, it makes it easier for us to grasp the idea on our
own level. [Copyright © 2001 by Rabbi Daniel Travis and www.Torah.org]

dolf: “Fascist Dogs BroilJAB & Uergil discuss their creation denial!”

Or is it now Uergil?

Creationist denial has its roots in German political theatre.

Numerological and mystic speculation was especially rife amongst German
Romantics and Naturphilosophien during the nineteenth century and grew
out of ancient teleological speculations concerning the harmonious
distribution of the heavenly bodies. Such speculation was by no means
confined to the celestial motions; in 1818 the Kantian mineralogist
Christian Weiss even argues for a link between aspects of
rhombic-dodecahedral crystal structure and the musical scale of tones!
However, such flights of imaginative fancy generally had little impact
upon the work of serious scientists; with one notable exception.

In 1766 Johann Daniel Titius von Wittenberg was preparing a German
translation of Charles Bonnet’s Contemplation de la Nature. To the
section on planetary motions he added a now famous footnote pointing out
that the radii of all the planetary orbits can be generated by the
following simple algorithm, where r is measured in astronomical units (1
AU = 1.496 x 1013 cm):


rn = 0.4 + 0.3 x 2n; n = 0,1,2…


This formula provided a striking approximation for the distance from the
Sun to the six then-known planets: Mercury {Measured: 0.39, Predicted:
0.4}, Venus {Measured: 0.72, Predicted: 0.7}, Earth {Measured: 1.00,
Predicted: 1.0}, Mars {Measured: 1.52, Predicted: 1.6}, Jupiter
{Measured: 5.20, Predicted: 5.2}, Saturn {Measured: 9.55, Predicted:
10.0}. Their measured distances from the Sun at the time of the Law’s
inception are indicated together with Titius’ predictions. [Rediscovery

Thats EXACTLY how the poor atheist bastards felt like when,
after a very short time, having Lenin, Stalin, Mao or their
loyal stooges telling the mob what they can think and what
they can say they wanted to ESCAPE TO FREEDOM!

Screaming "We are sick of the atheist state conformity, misery and despair..

Yup that's how the atheists found it being CONTROLLED by an
atheist moderator LAST TIME !

BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAAAA

And it will be EXACTLY the same this time round, because lets face it,
THE ONLY THING ATHEISTS AGREE ON IS THAT THEY BLAME GOD FOR THEIR
MISERABLE LIVES AND HATE THEISTS!

So those like Chris Lee, are bound to bang heads with anyone who
tries to shut him up... (See the violent sexual sociopaths style in the
example below ) B^D

As soon as they are caged up with each other it will be like rats in a
maze when the maze space is steadily decreased... before long they will
be eating one another...

Up until now they have had the COMMON ENEMY, but once they
go into a padded room with nothing but each other to talk to,
they will GO INSANE.. because as you all know.. rabid nutters
like Bukakke or Chris Lee, NEED creationists to SCREAM AT!

BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAAAAAA

As every atheist regime has shown, atheists can't sustain even one
decent democracy, let alone a civilisatiuon.. it just isn't a stable

Theist liars keep claiming that atheists claim that no gods exist, but
that is false.

What atheists actually say is merely that they lack faith that any gods
exist.

And as atheism makes no claims about whether any gods actually do or do
not exist, it has no need of proof.

On the other hand, those theists who claim that their gods do exist
are each claiming something that presupposes objective
physical evidence, but for which they can provide absolutely none of
that needed objective physical evidence.

To reprise: Lack of belief in the existence of something, as in atheism,
is only problematic when there is a plentiful supply of objective
physical evidence that that thing actually exists. Which is NOT the case
with anything that atheists fail to believe in.

Presence of belief in the existence of something, as in theism,  is only
problematic when there is a total lack of objective physical evidence
that that thing actually exists. Which IS the case with most of what
theists claim to believe in.

Alain de Botton, is a Swiss writer, philosopher, television
presenter entrepreneur and atheist... he has published bestselling
books including:


How Proust Can Change Your Life (1997)
The Consolations of Philosophy (2000)
The Art of Travel (2002)
Status Anxiety (2004)
The Architecture of Happiness (2006)
The Pleasures and Sorrows of Work (2009)
A Week at the Airport (2009)
Religion for Atheists: A Non-Believer's Guide to the Uses
of Religion (2012)

And his main thesis in that last book is that theist religions are no
longer of any social use, since all of their virtues are readily
available to modern societies, and are quite often already incorporated
into those societies, but without any of those theist vices.


"One can judge from experiment, or one can blindly accept authority. To
the scientific mind, experimental proof is all important and theory is
merely a convenience in description, to be junked when it no longer
fits. To the academic mind, authority is everything and facts are junked
when they do not fit theory laid down by authority. The whole principle
is wrong. It's like demanding that grown men live on skim milk because
the baby can't have steak."

hyponomic cosmological anthropic principle

However as Gadamer (1976) suggests when the layman wonders what
philosophy really is, he has the idea that philosophising means
defining, and taking responsibility for the need to define, the concepts
in which all men think as homo[ios] sapien[tal]. Since as a rule we do
not see this happen, we have helped ourselves by means of a doctrine of
implicit definition.

In reality, however, such a “doctrine” is a mere verbalism as is the
neologism starting with the German word: Dasein--which is not another
name for ‘consciousness’, ’subject’, or ‘human being’. Heidegger
introduces a vocabulary that challenges the reader [Stambaugh
2010:xviii]. To say nothing of the Hebrew word: Dashen {(#4 - Daleth;
#300 - Shin; #50 - Nun = #354 / #390 as H1878) specifically to anoint;
figuratively to satisfy; denominatively (from H1880 ) to remove (fat)
ashes (of sacrifices):—accept, anoint, take away the (receive) ashes
(from), make (wax) fat}. For to call a definition implicit obviously
means one finally comes to notice, on the basis of a number of sentences
that someone has spoken. And he or she was thinking something
unambiguous by means of using a concept. In this respect, philosophers
are no different from other men, for other men too are in the habit of
thinking definite things and avoiding contradictions. The lay opinion
appealed to here is in fact dominated by the doctrine that universals or
general ideas are mere names without any corresponding reality as
nominalistic tradition of recent centuries, in considering linguistic
reproduction as a kind of application of signs. It is obvious that
artificial signs need an organisation and arrangement that excludes any
ambiguity. Thus the demand arises that the illusionary problems of
“metaphysics” must be unmasked by establishing the univocal use of
language. [Gadamer 1971:125-126]

Atheists have neither honesty nor integrity.

They behave like this because they cannot win a rational debate,
and they think their cheap tactics will enable them to silence the

I'll leave Ravin1's forged abuse and ad hom here as evidence of
what LYING trolls the atheists are:

Text forged by Ravin1, atheist troll:

'forged' is the accurate term for the activities of atheist trolls
such as Vurgil and Ravin1

Fasgnadh has neither honesty nor integrity.

Alain de Botton, is a Swiss writer, philosopher, television
presenter entrepreneur and atheist... he has published bestselling
books including:


How Proust Can Change Your Life (1997)
The Consolations of Philosophy (2000)
The Art of Travel (2002)
Status Anxiety (2004)
The Architecture of Happiness (2006)
The Pleasures and Sorrows of Work (2009)
A Week at the Airport (2009)
Religion for Atheists: A Non-Believer's Guide to the Uses
of Religion (2012)

And his main thesis in that last book is that theist religions are no
longer of any social use, since all of their virtues are readily
available to modern societies, and are quite often already incorporated
into those societies, but without any theist vices.
