Once there was a time when all people believed in God and the church ruled. This time is called the Dark Ages.
"I contend that we are both atheists. I just believe in one fewer god than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours." - - Stephen Roberts
Psalm 137:9: Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones.
"A tyrant must put on the appearance of uncommon devotion to religion. Subjects are less apprehensive of illegal treatment from a ruler whom they consider godfearing and pious. On the other hand, they do less easily move against him, believing that he has the gods on his side." -- Aristotle, "Politics"
Old Yiddish proverb: "If triangles had a God, He'd have three sides."
Sacred cows make the best hamburger. -- Mark Twain
Making fun of born-again Christians is like hunting dairy cows with a high powered rifle and scope. -- P.J. O'Rourke
"I don't believe in God for the same reason I don't believe in Mother Goose." -- Clarence Darrow
Hindu speaking to a "Born again" christian:
"Of course I am born again. And again and again and again."
"The only difference between God and Adolf Hitler is that God is more proficient at genocide."
What a f iend we have in Jesus!
Trinity -- a three for one sale on deities
Absolute power corrupts absolutely;
God is all-powerful.
Draw your own conclusions
etc. ad nausium

I learned something new today, that I had never known. (department of redundancy department). Being a former Lutheran, I thought I should have known this.
Luther didn't think Esther belonged in the Bible, but he thought highly of 1 Maccabees and Sirach. He had a low opinion of Hebrews, and Revelation he thought to be of little value, being neither apostolic nor prophetic. The Epistle of James he termed "an epistle of straw."

So now I have been back at school for several days now. I got drunk two nights ago with the zetes and yesterday was really bad. I went to get my OSAP and they said I hadn't applied. I told them I applied last year. They told me that you had to apply every year. I said that can't be because I phoned them and asked if I had to and they said no. They said you phoned the wrong people. That I phoned the lender and they know nothing about what is going on.
So now they tell me. I had to do lots of shit to get it togeather again. I hate the system. God damn! Long live the revolution.
