God is great…..so are we.
An invisible man? Really??
Bringing us one step closer to a world with no religion (non religion).
God is great…..so are we.
I could not agree more. Stealing from the poor to keep and give to the rich is exactly what God had intended.
“God knows you better than yourself. So if you really want to get to know who you are, you’ve got to get to know God.”
God doesn’t exist. I do.

Does that mean either fuck your god or There is No God?
It’s 6:06 a.m. and I have gotten very little work done and not slept at all, but have nonetheless enjoyed the past seven hours in one of my favorite people’s apartment discussing everything from European history to policy debate to boys. Still, I REALLY need to start being productive.
Funny…you are not married so why you thinking about sex or talking about boys? I thought good religious girls don’t do things like that. After all you run a “Jesus blog”.
It should be satire, but it’s still risky. Because I wouldn’t be surprised if this passes.
I personally think that religion and commercialism have SO much to do with marriage failure rate.

God…If you are up there…can you maybe send down some brains or intelligence or shit while I am talking to myself…how about some honesty for your followers.
Church creates more worries than it solves. I cannot have a bad thought, I cannot think about having sex, I cannot think about anything except for God.
Very hard to do when you live on planet Earth.
PS...You now need permission to delete a kick ass blog about George Carlin.
An ongoing study by a well-respected Baptist university has found that local churches may not be the best place to receive counseling or support for mental illness.
Baylor University researchers built upon a 2008 study that found nearly a third of those who approached their local church in response to a personal or family member’s previously-diagnosed mental illness were told they really did not have mental illness.
In the new study, investigators discovered individuals experiencing anxiety and depression were dismissed the most often.
The finding is important as research consistently shows that clergy — not psychologists or other mental health experts — are the most common source of help sought in times of psychological distress. Furthermore, authorities believe 50 percent of individuals suffering from depression or anxiety go undiagnosed.
The Baylor researchers surveyed 168 pastors affiliated with the Baptist General Convention of Texas (BGCT). As a whole, the sample consisted of large, affluent congregations in suburban settings with senior pastors who were highly educated, predominantly Caucasian and theologically conservative.
The Baylor study found that despite recognizing a biological basis to all mental illness, the views of the BGCT pastors surveyed vary across disorders in how much they believe environmental or spiritual factors, such as personal sin, lack of faith or demonic involvement, play a role.
Major depressive disorders and anxiety disorders were viewed by pastors as having greater environmental and spiritual involvement and were more often dismissed than the more “severe” mental illnesses like schizophrenia or bipolar disorder.
The study also found that pastors viewed inconsistent parenting as the main driving force behind ADHD.
Pastors viewed medication as more effective in disorders seen as predominantly biological, compared to those with greater environmental or spiritual involvement.
“The results are troubling because the demographic of this sample is considered to have the most and easiest access to mental health care, but yet, by their admission, they seem unwilling to access mental health care that is available to their congregants,” said Dr. Matthew Stanford, professor of psychology and neuroscience at Baylor, who led the study.
“A majority of them also do not believe they come into contact with very many congregants that have a legitimate mental illness, however we know roughly one in four Americans will be diagnosed with a mental illness this year, making it likely that they will come in contact with it.”
In addition, the study found for those congregants with mental illness, the BGCT pastors surveyed were reluctant to refer to mental health professionals who the pastors perceived or knew not to be Christian. When a mental health professional was known to be a Christian, the likelihood of referral by pastors was much higher.
I would say they increase the mental illness.
This is the spam and was somehow submitted to my lego blog….what the fuck.
Why am I bringing this up? Simple. Because if I was religious I would have donated money to her because of the “dearest in Christ” and God Bless and whatever other brainwashing signals there is embedded in here.
ฉันมีที่อยู่อีเมลใหม่!ขณะนี้ คุณสามารถส่งอีเมลถึงฉันได้ที่ monica_110williams@yahoo.com - Dearest in Christ, with due respect and humanity, I am contacting you under a humanitarian ground. I am Mrs Monica Williams; I was born in Baltimore , Maryland in America , and was married to Mr. John Williams, Director J.W Industries Cote d’Ivoire . We were married for 36 years with an only child who later died in a ghastly car accident. My husband died in 2006 after a Cardiac Arteries Operation. Recently, my Doctor told me that I have a precise time to live due to my stroke and cancer illness (cancer of the liver). Before my husband died, there is this sum of Five Million, Five Hundred Thousand Dollars (US$5.500.000) which he deposited with a Private security company here In Ivory Coast . Presently, this money is still in the custody of the Security Company. I want someone who will use this fund according to the desire of my late husband, that is; to help the less privileged, orphans, widows, victims of war, terrorist attacks, natural disaster and most of its all, propaga ting the word of God. Though I have a precise time to live, I am not afraid of death hence I know my reward before our Almighty. Please always remember me in your daily prayers for my up coming cancer surgery. Looking forward to hear from you soon. God bless you. Mrs Monica Williams.
They have gone TOO FUCKING FAR.
