Commentary: It is all in the celebration of contradiction
Jason Spaceman
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Of course, I do not believe in atheists. I have never met an atheist
in my entire life. I have met people who said they were atheists, but
I never believed it. Every time an atheist gets in trouble, he blames
it on God. Remember 9/11? Now, if he really does not believe in God,
why does he blame things on God?
I must give credit to these people who think they are atheists. They
firmly believe that there is no God despite the evidence to the
contrary.
Take the controversy between evolution and creationism. After all the
efforts by so-called experts, nobody has come up with any solid proof
supporting the theory of evolution. Despite the labors of many to
prove otherwise, the evidence supporting creationism is overwhelming.
For someone to reject solid facts and then cling on to an unproven
theory has to be the epitome of foolishness.
Then, on the other hand, we have Easter Sunday. This is a
well-documented event in the history of mankind. Certainly, many have
tried to disapprove the resurrection of Jesus Christ, but all to no
avail. Very few events in history have more collaborating evidence
then the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
As my wife and I continued talking about this, she made a very good
point. Her point being, that after 2,000 years of vicious attacks on
the Bible to prove it wrong, nobody has ever come up with any proof
that it is false. Not one word of the Bible has ever been proven to be
false or in error.

"They" did not blame "god', and if any did, they blamed it on the
*concept* of "god".

What "solid facts" support creationism?

A Pagan ritual adopted by christianity to ease the incorporation of
pagans.

In one book.

How does one "disprove" a myth that, by it's nature, leaves no
verifiable evidence?

The Bible is not really 2,000 years old.

"Genesis Flood".
I like how the author claims his religious beliefs are supported by
evidence and facts, yet presents none, other than his apparent
personal religious convictions.

Anyway, perhaps someone should complain to the publisher about the
blasphemy (the name of the blog).

Weren't actually the religious fanatics that blamed it on God?

Like a book which tells the story multiple times inconsistently.

Like when they used to burn at stake those who doubted of the Bible
accuracy.

Actually, the Bible proves itself to be false since it contains
contraddictions.

More like two groups of believers burning each other at the stake, with both
sides proclaiming that they had a duty to do it because only their
interpretation of scripture and dogma was theologically sound. When the
other side had the upper hand, the same thing would happen but the original
first side was the one burned.

It is so bad that it could be that the paper was taken by a troll. It
wouldn't garner many loki points here, but if they thought that the
guy was serious and published it, that would be something. Submitted
by "godspenman." Sounds suspicious, but it wasn't publish April 1.
It might have been late or they didn't have room for it on April

That statement, in itself, shows a total lack of the ability to use the
brain for reasoning and thinking.

There is a legitimate newspaper that allows a lunatic to use a pen
name like godspenman? Why would the various denominations not object
to something like that. Is there only one church in town with this
boob leading it?

But Iwould take that up a notch...
Of course, I do not believe in aatheists. I have never met an
aatheist
in my entire life. I have met people who said they were aatheists,
but
I never believed it. Therefore, I must be an aaatheist, but I digress.
Every time an aatheist gets in trouble, he blames it on an atheist.
Remember 9/11? Now, if he really does not believe in atheists, why
does he blame things on atheists?

I don't think we can determine whether you are an aaatheist. I am an
agaaatheist.

It looks like an unkind "April Fool's Day" parody. The article
uses the word "Creationism" where an actual Creationist would have
written "creation."
