I think it’s amazing that perfectly intelligent people think that anyone who doesn’t believe that the slick talking Mr. O should be president is a racist. I saw black teenagers getting knocked down with a firehose for trying to get in to a public swimming pool, now that is racist. Me making a choice to not vote for a man because I disagree with his “policy” is simply my freedom of choice. Mr Byrne thinks we should allow people who are not citizens to vote???? He sounds like a nitwit.

Religious “thinkers” often like to haul up Einstein quotes… but I am not sure why. To prove what? Smart people can have faith?

This “argument” can go on forever, because your “arguments” don’t need proof. If you believe something exists, for you it does, and you can point to the similarly deluded and say “See! they think the same thing!!!”

There is a transcendent beauty in existence that your religious self-deception does not allow you to experience because it means letting go of the myths you depend on to structure your life. “If Jesus isn’t real, then what is?”

And there it is: you’re afraid of what you don’t know, and that fear of the unknown is the source of all myths. You need the myths to explain away the darkness, and to give you hope in this “confusing” world.

Your mythic worldview is simply no longer adequate, not open enough to encompass our ever expanding perspective of our place in the universe. You have to fight back the creeping awareness that you spent too long dreaming about heaven, and not enough time living honestly.

I don’t need faith, belief, or anything external to directly experience the pure, simple, beautiful truth of what it is to exist. Direct experience is not science and it’s not intelligence: it is what is. You don’t need a church, a leader, or a book.

You need only courage, curiosity, and honesty.

Anyways, I am more interested in the pope’s golden throne than his Jesus costume.

Ever wonder who pays for the golden throne that every religion’s leader sits upon?

Your mom also has a loop.

What, in your opinion, is progress?

I like this one. Leading lines, very good

I dunno. My currency converter widget tells me it’s $1.579/euro. I feel like that’s just wrong.

In other news: post more stuff on your blog. (ENTERTAIN ME!)

Why does Phil think it’s fake?
