SemiRant - Annoying Emails

SemiRant - Annoying Emails
So, occasionally, I get annoying religious emails from grandma, and I feel like semiranting to you. But I am not a ranter...




What kind of argument goes against that?
hmm, take the amount of 'untimely' deaths after we ridicule a god of somesort, then divide it by the total number of atheists...
then take the amount of 'untimely deaths' for everyone else and get the percentage for them also and comare both results... wouldn't they be nearly the same?

I hate cherry picking.

My grandma saw my status on Yahoo! the other day, and it read "Religious follwers are persitant, annoying, and illogical... ;\' then she gets all mad and starts telling my gf that she (gma) herself wouldn't be able to stay in a relationship with someone of a different fairytale book (religion), and says that I am too smart to let 'God' go... I should not be ashamed of her god and all that usual junk.

Whatchall think...? My status was then "What can be asserted without proof can be dismissed without proof" and it is currently "I don't need fairytales."

Also, my mom recently found out about my awesome mental achievement of becoming an atheist, just not in a positive way... ;\\ Love and live life.

The underlying measage reads:

Quote:"I am so insecure and frightened and I want to feel better about my self that I will boost my pathetic ego by spaming the world with my belief system that deperately NEEDS more numbers because that way we all get to hide and don't have to face this god we go on about cos our god can't reach us until a certain day in a certain building when we are doing a certain ritual and only THEN if we get that ritual right; so in the interim we will bleat like the stoopid sheep that we are about how YOU are making our deity angry by NOT conforming to our petty little fairy stories and bowing down to us cos we NEVER left the school yard bully metality and we still want to kick arse but we are afraid to...unless we are in a big group cos there is always safety in numbers and that validates our position and make us feel better cos YOU ARE WRONG and WE ARE RIGHT...(so gnerrr) "

I am currently getting 'Rant 101' lectures from my daughter....she is very goodDevil

Funny how since we have taken on Poiltics, Religion is having an identity crisis.

And it leaves out the atheists who lived long, happy lives, like Bertrand Russell, who became an atheist at 18 and lived for another 80 years, pipe smoking, extramarital affairs and all. Of course, a long life isn't everything.
And really, killing people for speaking out against you... doesn't the Mafia do the same thing? Oh yeah, that's right, it's God, whose name is Jealous (seriously, read Exodus 34:14), and everything he does is by definition good because he's God.
