Good Evening Comrade

Sometimes, when I am standing in the street watching some religious preacher spouting forth their usual brand of flibbertygibberting gobbledygook, I wish we were back in Soviet Russia.  Back then the Soviets had a major alcohol addiction problem. But the police had a unique way of dealing with it. They would arrest a drunk, take them back to the station and put them in a cell with a camera with sound recording facilities in it. Everyone knows what they look like. They are often shown after a big trial when the convicted person is denying everything when they were intially being questioned. They would then let said drunk ramble on all night long in that cell. The next morning, when the unfortunate drunk had slept it all off, the police would replay the footage and sound back to the drunk, so they could see, when completely sober, what a total arse they had made of themselves. That would very often shame them into seeking treatment for thier addiction, and of course, gave the police ...

Just a question

 Dear Believer,  As you waste your life away practicing your religion, has this question ever occurred to you?  Have you ever wondered why, when you are faithfully carrying out all the wholly pointless tasks that your faith demands of you, that nothing happens to those who DO NOT practice your religion?  Just look around you. Wherever you happen to be while reading this, you will notice that you are surrounded by people who are not doing what you are doing.  Are they coming out in boils? Is your (non-existent) 'God' raining bolts of lightening down on them? No! In fact, nothing is happening to them now. Nothing happened to them in the past. And NOTHING will happen to them in the future.  Oh hang on, I hear you say, but what about the AFTERLIFE?  WHAT 'afterlife'?  Apart from the rubbish that your religious leaders tell you, have you ever seen any independently verifiable evidence that there IS an 'afterlife'? Oh, and we are not talking about 'near...

Religion and Racism

Religion is the last respectable face of racism.  One of things religion does is endue believers with the deluded belief that because of the opinions they hold, (and never forget that religion IS only an OPINION) they are somehow superior to those who do not hold them.  And what is the difference between that and someone believing their their skin colour makes them superior to someone else with a different skin colour? What is the difference between someone thinking they are superior because they take part in a set of wholly ridiculous and pointless rituals every week and thinking that their geographical location puts them above others from a different location?  This racism is most obviously displayed in the public wearing of religious symbols.  Here in the UK, we see women from Muslim background wearing what I call 'The Rag of The Racist Pig' around their heads, in the form of Niqabs and Burqas. It is their way of saying 'Fuck You, I am better than you because I be...

Britain is a SECULAR state! Don't make me laugh!

So yesterday, being Easter Sunday, I took part in my annual Easter tradition of spending 15 minutes in the car park of my local big shopping centre.  It always gives me a good laugh to watch the streams of cars and people arrive at the front door of the two major supermarkets on the estate and then scratch their heads in amazement when they find them closed.  "Sorry, its closed" I said to one Muslim woman. "Its Easter Sunday and in case you have forgotten, Britain is still a Christian country". I'm not sure her English was good enough understand me, but the very old English guy certainly did.  "Of course its closed mate" I said to him. "Its Easter Sunday, shops are legally required to be closed on Easter Sunday".  "Really?" He said "Well how long has that been going on then?" Well, perhaps he has not lived in the UK much. However, I have lived here all my life and I've always known that. No one expects big shops to be ...

21st Century Life: The Promise and the Reality

Image
I came across this annual recently and it reminded me that I used to devour the TV21 comic that came out every week. This was published by the makers of Thunderbirds, Stingray and Captain Scarlett, all the shows I used to love watching as a kid.  These puppet shows were all set in the 21st Century, where everyone lived in gadget-filled houses and wore sharp suits and angular glasses, while driving flying cars. Life it seemed was going to be great when we got to the 21st Century. It was going to be modern and enlightened.   Well, here we are. Already in the first quarter of it, and what do we have?  No sharp suits, just loose tracksuits produced by slave labour in countries like Bangladesh. Gadget filled houses? Well, yes we have them.  I have two laptops, four tablets and several Alexa devices. But the houses are still pretty ordinary.  But do we have enlightenment? Sadly not. Thanks to weak minded politicians, we are still dominated by religion.  And ...

Stop Spreading Sh*t - a comment on the Bondi Beach atrocity

The easiest way to stop shit spreading is to stop spreading shit. If you stop spreading the shit that says that there is a God, and that yours is the only ‘true’   religion, then this shit will stop spreading.  And when the shit stops spreading, kids will stop growing up to become terrorists who kill people in the name of the pile of shit that is religion.  Its very simple. God does NOT exist now. God did NOT exist in the past, and God will NOT exist in the future.  Furthermore, all religions are a pointless waste of time. The best way to stop spreading the shit is to grow up and become an atheist!

Rocking Horse Shit

Rocking Horse Shit is the best fertiliser to use for growing cucumbers, courgettes and tomatoes. Rocking horse shit also grows strawberries the size of tennis balls. If you spread it on your lawn, your grass will become lusciously green. And because rocking horse shit is sparkly with the aroma of Parma Violets there are no nasty smells to worry about. So where can you get it?  You can’t because rocking horse shit does not exist. Furthermore, by the very nature of what rocking horses are (inanimate objects) it CANNOT exist.  God is like Rocking Horse Shit. Not only does god not exist, but the way believers describe God (as existing outside of space, time and matter – the three ESSENTIAL ingredients for existence), God CANNOT exist.  As Stephen Hawking has noted “time did not exist before the Big Bang, so there was no time for God to make the universe in”. He also said (the universe) “did not need a god to create it”.  Of course, desperate believers could still try to ...
