Just look at the representations of saints with the aureola on the head.

Good way to shake down the local population for more church contributions, and press them into unpaid labour -- "Lookit all the pretty saints!  They're spiritual.  Don't you want to be spiritual, too?"

Say what you will, but now i can't shake the image of st peter with an areola on his head from my (very much physical thank you) brain
"Every luxury has a deep price. Every indulgence, a cosmic cost. Each fiber of pleasure you experience causes equivalent pain somewhere else. This is the first law of emodynamics [sic]. Joy can be neither created nor destroyed. The balance of happiness is constant.

Fact: Every time you eat a bite of cake, someone gets horsewhipped.

Facter: Every time two people kiss, an orphanage collapses.

Factest: Every time a baby is born, an innocent animal is severely mocked for its physical appearance. Don't be a pleasure hog. Your every smile is a dagger. Happiness is murder.

Vote "yes" on Proposition 1321. Think of some kids. Some kids."

Great. Now where's the evidence for these physical effects?

A calm and relax feeling but most of all a lot of spiritual strength.

Unfortunately most atheist are plagued with the CANARY SYNDROME and you seem to be one of them
but let me explain what is all about.

[Image: 3833539919_3bce8a4988.jpg]

The little bird would be lost if left outside the cage all of a sudden.  Bird
He would be afraid to cope with procuring food and drink, avoid predators and so many other problems so
the only way is to slow down his freedom.
A bit at the time and the day will come when the bird will manage to cope with all problems but there is a
BUT.
Inside the cage he feel protected.  Indubitably

He got food and drink and beside he never knew what freedom is all about so who cares after all.

Most atheist got the same mentality.  Shake Fist
They don't know what the real freedom is.
They confuse a physical body which is a cage with freedom.
Just like little birds inside a cage they don't wish anything else.
They are falsely happy as it is.  Smile

So says you. But I kinda think I know myself better than you know me.

Of course, that won't stop you from making broad, sweeping generalizations. Enjoy!

So you think that I'm a canary in a cage.  So. Fucking. What?  I think you're a religion junkie living a life of false hope, and that at the end of your life on Earth you will simply lose consciousness and not even know you ever believed.

Until  and unless your alleged god shows up in person and talks to Me directly, without any dumb-ass self-appointed mortal middlemen such as yourself, I'm just going to sit here in the "cage" and enjoy My life.
