Apparently "Jesus" is Jewish, and this video makes more sense than BW's nonsense does

sometimes ignorance is not bliss, it instead causes people to place there pride ahead of themselves forever preventing them from becoming knowledgeable about that in which they out of their own ignorance make fun of, or scoff at.

it is them that are really making as ass of out, and not that in which they are trying to poke fun at.

The reason the words can be warped is because they are.

You can keep your rotten curses for yourself, sir, and kindly swallow them. With this, I consider our conversation to be over.

See? Now you know my placing BW-userx in the limbo of Ignore was at the very least, provoked. I actually wish him well, but since no actual conversation is even remotely possible, it is fruitless and he can get mean. At least he is consistent. He is always sanctimonious.

someone does not even know what a curse is, and a double negative is as well. its no surprise they're logical reasoning is off.

as far as curses go, I've never heard of a ripe curse as appose to a rotten one.

-----
sanctimonious,that is a self derived perspective of another by that ones own perspective of themselves compared to the other.

If someone thinks me sanctimonious, then they must not only think they are, but believe that they are less moral than I.

He's so consistent that he might deserve a marginal place in "The Atheist's Reference Book of Stereotypes About Religion".

Muslim countries officially punish atheism or apostasy by death, while "the overwhelming majority" of the 192 United Nation member countries "at best discriminate against citizens who have no belief in a god and at worst can jail them for offences dubbed blasphemy".

from the mouth of an atheist:
Quote:

This post certainly struck a nerve, particularly among atheist readers. One writes:

Sharing Kevin's sense of never having felt the need to believe in God, perhaps my answer will be of interest.


I have always felt that when I die, I am dead and gone, my conscious life will end, my interactions with others will
end, and I will be simply GONE. I don't know what causes consciousness (call it spirit, call it soul, I don't mean to
pick sides with my words), but I expect that it will end. My afterlife will be in the memories of those I knew, those
who loved me, those who carry me on in their hearts. I, myself, cease to exist.


This gives me a beautiful, shockingly beautiful sense of the Now. Being in the present, the here and now, is the
ultimate reward of life. I am constantly gobsmacked by the minutiae of life; I stand in awe of the things around me
right f&#%$ing now. There's no reward, no judgment, no heaven, no hell. I live right fu&#%@$#cking now.
quoted:
" I, myself, cease to exist."

Go to living a life of death. just live, do whatever, die and rot in a hold way of thinking and living.

that is exactly what that one atheist writes is doing.

At lest he can admit it.

"religion is a marketing campaign for a product that does not exist" - author unknown

and despite my atheism i like this next quote

"god is a comedian playing to an audience thats too afraid to laugh" - author unknown

even one of the most brilliant jews in history was an atheist

Prior to nominating David Ben Gourion to be Israeli president, the Zionist council approached Dr Albert Einstein for the job, which he turned down. Now we know why. It seems that one year before his death, Albert Einstein, Nobel Prize Winner, wrote a letter spelling out his beliefs. In the letter Einstein wrote "For me, the Jewish religion like all other religions, is an incarnation of the most childish superstitions." Addressing the idea that the Jews are God's chosen people, Einstein wrote that "the Jewish people to whom I gladly belong and with whose mentality I have a deep affinity have no different quality for me than all other people. As far as my experience goes, they are also no better than other human groups, I cannot see anything 'chosen' about them."

We are not what we eat( so to speak), we transform that to fat, energy &c; but, you definitely are what you're taught to be!
Why so many religions‽
If you fear dying, you fear living, no wonder their needs for cults!!!!!

Of course I can't claim anyone to be a sucker without everyone, considering what they believed 200 years ago... 1.0?!.
