Interesting read. I have slowly distanced myself from religion all together. And the ironic thing is that I have just gotten tired the whole Superstitious thing...

 The biblical God character was simply the series of men who ruled the various dominant Middle Eastern empires in ancient times.  "God" was just a title.  The invisible sky deity is actually only referred to a few times in the Bible.  All of the "God" dialogue is the human rulers speaking.  

The ancient rulers did a very clever thing by elevating themselves to "God" because it gave them special authority beyond what they could normally possess.  By claiming that they derived their authority from some invisible sky being it created a sense of awe in the local yokels.  It helped to keep them in power.  The priests created a parallel system to sell the BS as religion, thereby brainwashing everyone into complete obedience to the ruler regardless of what commands he issued.

After thousands of years of such BS in all cultures local yokels still treat their rulers pretty much as "God".  Only a very few brave people are able to standup to the power of their "God."  In recent American history one such person that comes to mind is Cassius Clay, aka as Mohammed Ali.  During the Vietnam War he refused to join the military because he said that the Vietnam people had never done anything to him.  He paid a big price for that.  Meanwhile tens of thousands of men went to their deaths just because their "God" told them that the Viet Cong was their enemy although not one of them didn't personally know any or had never seen any.  That's the power of "God" because of the complete brainwashing everyone gets exposed to.  Only "demons" (or sinners who will end up in hell) are able to resist.  

One thing is 100% certain:  there are no celestial gods of any kind in this solar system.  There has never been any, and there never will be any.  But humans do tend to regard their rulers as gods, even today, everywhere on the planet.  When they say "jump" people tend to ask "how high?"  They just refrain from calling them "gods" because that has gone out of style except for maybe in North Korea.  The Japanese god died after WWII when the US demoted him to just a man.

We will get a new god in 2017 and live and die according to his whims.

Wrong LOL the planets are gods

What the hell?  My post has been ninja'd by some newbie troll who starts by defending the wholly babble . . . then claims that the planets are gods . . . then tells us all he's a magician.  

Make some of that "magic" work on live TV for the world to see, planet boy, and I'll take your posts more seriously.

But I was asking about the Huff Post article on rejecting "American Christianity" - and whether this state of rejecting literalistic xtianity was the last step towards becoming a new atheist.

So better yet, planet boy, start a new thread by telling us, up front, what you believe and how you want to discuss it, ok?

Slight of hand tricks and stuff yes but magic magic doesn't exist.
