Proving once again that Jesus is a mamby-pamby little sissy boy that can’t even cast fire and brimstone on one little courthouse, the poor little carpenter’s Son ran home to his Virgin Mommy, crying like a schoolboy that just got beat up. What a fucking loser!

We’ll be back tomorrow to crow some more over our huge victory and rub some more salt in the wounds of Fundamentalist hate monger losers everywhere.

Now please turn to page 549 in your hymnals and join us as we lift our voices in praise of His intolerance:

What a Loser We Have in Jesus

What a loser we have in Jesus,
All our hate and lies to bear!
What a privilege to carry
All our lies to Him in prayer!
O what truths we often forfeit,
O what bigotry we share,
All because we do not carry
Any facts within our prayer.

Are we tired of harsh reality,
Are thy neighbors festive too?
Precious Savior, still our bigot;
He will give them all AIDS too
Do thy friends all call thee stupid?
Take it to the fags today!
To his hell he’ll surely send them;
Then our bigotry shall pay.

A letter written by Einstein will be auctioned off this week, it is a letter which reveals the contempt Einstein felt toward religious delusions.

“The word god is for me nothing more than the expression and product of human weaknesses, the Bible a collection of honourable, but still primitive legends which are nevertheless pretty childish. No interpretation no matter how subtle can (for me) change this.”

Religion has always been of the stupid, by the stupid, and for the stupid. Survey after survey has demonstrated a clear correlation between advanced education and freedom from religious delusions.

It makes sense that people who are not stupid would do better in the educational system, and they would therefore be represented in greater numbers among persons with advanced degrees. Stupid people, having less ability to differentiate between superstition and fact, are less likely to recognize and rid themselves of false ideas learned by naive children.

So be careful about the lies you tell to your children involving invisible fairies that live in the sky. It is possible that they may never learn that there is no Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny is really a person, and there are no invisible fairies up above the clouds.

And for the Fundamentalists who try to claim that the smartest man they ever heard of was suffering from religious delusions like theirs, this letter represents epic failure.

Of course they could always pray that their Imaginary Bearded Sky Daddy will use his magical ink re-arrangement powers to rewrite Einstein’s letter so that it conforms to their favorite fantasies.

Maybe he means the distorted kind of Christianity in which people that publicly criticize the world’s wealthiest pedophile ring are not burnt at the stake. The Cardinal may be longing for the good old days, hundreds of years ago, when the religious options included Catholicism or death.

Atheism, beyond any shadow of a doubt, is the natural state of all living things.

The word atheism combines the prefix ‘a’, meaning without, with the word theism, meaning a delusional belief in one or more Imaginary Bearded Sky Daddy(ies). If you made a nearly infinitely large chart, and you listed all of the gods that have ever been imagined by a human being on the left side, and all of the gods that a newborn baby believes in on the right side, the chart would be empty on the right side. A newborn baby is without any delusional belief in invisible fairies, therefore all babies are born as atheists.

Let us now compare what Cardinal O’Connor calls “modern atheism” with, say, the atheism of a newborn human baby born 27,521 years ago.

The modern atheist does not believe in any Imaginary Bearded Sky Daddy. The newborn baby 27,521 years ago also did not believe in any Imaginary Bearded Sky Daddy. So far there does not seem to be any difference.

It must be very lonely running the regional profit center for the Church in modern day Britain. The British people are not constantly awash in idiotic Fundamentalist drivel like some other nations. The average man in the street in the UK today has no interest in anything to do with Christianity. Brits really are good at recognizing bullshit when it is being shoveled.

There is one consistent note to every attempt by Christians to denigrate atheism, they must always begin by misrepresenting the definition of the term. Cardinal O’Connor, commenting on Richard Dawkins:

“The interesting question about atheism is what is the theism being denied? Have you ever met anyone who believes what Richard Dawkins does not believe in? The God that is being rejected by such people is a God I don’t believe in either.”

Here is the interesting answer, the theism that atheists do not believe includes all delusions about all imaginary deities no matter who is being delusional or what they have to say about their delusion. For each and every Imaginary Bearded Sky Daddy, all atheists everywhere throughout all time do not believe in that delusion. Modern atheists and ancient atheists do not believe in exactly the same number of Imaginary Bearded Sky Daddies - all of them.

So Cardinal O’Connor, whatever color you may think your invisible super pal’s beard may be, we do not believe that it exists.

A person that does not believe in any God at all, even the ones that have not been imagined yet, is an atheist.

A person that only disbelieves in a subset of invisible super pals, but who does believe in one or more Special Friend(s) is not an atheist.

No belief in any God = atheism. Belief in more than zero God(s) = theism. We hope this is clear enough that even a professional Catholic can understand it.

Magdalena Rouco Hernández stripped off to embarrass her uncle, who is head of the Spanish Episcopal Conference and also a friend of Pope Benedict XVI [ed: Rat in a Hat].

The mother-of-two posed topless on eight pages of Interviú magazine, whose curious formula consists of generous helpings of female flesh combined with serious investigations.

The 27-year-old, who went to mass every day as a girl, said she chose to do the photoshoot to expose her uncle’s “hypocrisy” following her father’s death. “My uncle never tires of repeating that the family is sacred and that you have to respect it. But then he does not respect it and abandons his own,” she said.

“When my father died, [Rouco] did not come to the funeral, didn’t send flowers or tell my mother of his sorrow. He told us he had a meeting with Pope John Paul II, but it was not true.

Who has Family Values? Is it the daughter who loved her parents dearly and later posed in a risque fashion, or is it the Family Values Cardinal who does not even give a shit about his own family.

The Cardinal loves to spread lies and hatred, he is after all a Catholic Cardinal, so he says idiotic things like “gay marriage is the worst disaster in 200 years“. No doubt because of the millions of deaths in Spain since gay marriage became legal. Altar boys know that the more a priest complains about homosexuals, the more dresses he has in his closet. I bet the Spanish altar boys don’t ever let him get them alone in a corner.

One thing I really do admire very much about Spanish culture is that they do not tolerate fascist pig religious leaders messing with their government. They have learned from experience.

a camp where non-combatants of a district are accommodated, such as those instituted by Lord Kitchener during the South African war of 1899-1902; one for the internment of political prisoners, foreign nationals, etc., esp. as organized by the Nazi regime in Germany before and during the war of 1939-45.

Today an innocent man arrested without due cause was released. Sami al-Hajj had been held prisoner by US forces for 6 years without ever being charged with any crime. Before he was illegally detained by imperialist invaders he was working as a photographer for Al Jazeera.

During the first year he was held in the US concentration camp without being charged with any crime. He had no rights according to Our Glorious Christian Leader.

During the second year he was held in the US concentration camp without being charged with any crime. He had no rights according to Darth Cheney.

During the third year he was held in the US concentration camp without being charged with any crime. He had no rights according to Donald “Death Star” Rumsfeld.

During the fourth year he was held in the US concentration camp without being charged with any crime. He had no rights according to Co-Conspirator Rice.

During the fifth year he was held in the US concentration camp without being charged with any crime. He had no rights according to Alberto “Torture Time” Gonzales.

During the sixth year he was released from the US concentration camp without being charged with any crime. Nobody has apologized for holding him prisoner for 6 years with no charges.

We do not know how often he was tortured, but we do know who authorized the torture.

Since he was never charged with any crime at all, not even littering, what shall we presume about his guilt or innocence? Is there any presumption to be made about a person’s guilt or innocence? How about if a person has not only never been convicted of a crime, suppose they have never even been charged with a crime - are they still guilty?

So, once again the all powerful creator of the universe turns up as a loser in court, a place where only facts matter. Take that, Jesus!

The Rat in a Hat has every good reason to be ashamed of the history of conspiracy, cover ups, enabling, and white-washing of felony crimes committed by his associates. He is especially entitled to be ashamed of his personal role in ordering the coverups and then later seeking legal immunity for his role. In 2001 then Cardinal Ratzinger, a/k/a God’s Rotweiler, he sent a letter to US bishops ordering them to cover up the crimes of his employees.

So yeah, Ratzi, you do have plenty to apologize for, and maybe some more cash-bleeding court cases to suffer through too. But at least we know that when it came to choosing between protecting the church from the testimony of victims, or protecting children from child molesting priests - you made the choice to protect the Vatican instead of the kids.

Back to today’s interview over the Atlantic, the Rat in a Hat did have the good taste to make it clear that these felon priests were pedophiles, and that this was not the same as being homosexual. Maybe it is the small miracles we should be thankful for, don’t seem to be a lot of big ones.

God will pass judgment on a nation that allows this kind of mockery aimed at holy icons. Help preserve the Sanctity of Crucifixes. Only priests, bishops, cardinals and The Rat himself should be allowed to feel up Jesus. They are the guys who are sort of married kind-of to the Son of God, by signing on as priests they publicly renounce girls as being icky and having lots of cooties, it’s an all boys club.

These construction workers are not sworn to a life of celibacy (except altar boys) like a priest is, so they should NOT be feeling up Jesus like that.

Don’t you just love the imaginary harm posed by imaginary threats from the imaginary enemies of their Imaginary Bearded Sky Daddy? I sure do.

In the mind of this buffoon, and in millions of other Christian minds, to teach evolution is synonymous with atheism. It’s just not a good idea to smoke cheap crack. Among the many thousands upon thousands of Imaginary Bearded Sky Daddies, Imaginary Virgin Sky Mommies, and all of the many other forms of deities people have pretended about over the last million years, certainly there are some that are compatible with evolution. And of course as long as a person believes in just one Tinkerbell or other deity, they are not an atheist.

Christians do themselves a disservice when they incorrectly identify evolution as the principle threat to their fairy tales. In reality all forms of education and science threaten the fragile shell of their crumbling fairy tales.

A 2007 revision of the Arkansas marital code had extended marriage privileges to all heterosexual infants, toddlers, pre-schoolers, and students as long as Mommy or Daddy signed a permission slip. In their mad rush to protect the citizens of Arkansas from adult gay couples that love each other and wish to commit to each other, the legislators forgot to read the bill they had rushed through the legislature by a margin of lots and lots of Jesus.

With elections coming up, legislators all across the Booble Belt are desperately trying to Out-Jesus each other in order to get the Imaginary Bearded Sky Daddy client vote, estimated at 93% in Jebus-rich Arkansas. But when news got out last year that they had accidentally Jesused the law incorrectly, the Party of Jesus dominated Arkansas legislature had a bit of Jesus egg on their faces.

Children as young as just born were permitted in the Jesus-modded law until the correction was made this week.

Meanwhile in nearby Oklahoma Sally Kern is expected to comment on the threat posed by the Toddler agenda.
