A challenge to any and all religions collectively.

It WOULD be fun to set up an Atheist version of the James Randi Challenge . . . you know, PROVE that your God can do something, anything, just get it scientifically verified and you get a million dollars.  AND you get to be rich and famous and forever special to your particular religion.  

It really is too bad I don't have a million bucks to put up for grabs, because I would do it in a heartbeat.  It's also too bad that you would almost certainly get no takers.  They would stand back and yell that they don't need proof, and quote scriptures like "thou shalt not put the lord thy god to the test".  (Deuteronomy 6:16; Matthew 4:7; Luke 4:12)

If every religion is confident in their respective correctness, then why should a neutral lab frighten any of them?

Funny how we never see a mix of a multitude of religions trying to settle who is right without violence or political violence. Funny how while some religious people claim to value science, and some try to say it points to their respective clubs, but we never see a collection of a mix of worldwide religions willing to find a neutral setting to settle who got it right. 

If a Buddhist and a Christian and a Muslim and Jew and a Hindu all think they got it right, wouldn't it be less violent to set up a neutral method and agree to a neutral lab to see who is right and who is wrong without all the tribalism?

I don't want to hear shit about legal rights, or human rights, I agree to those things regardless. But I am tired of my species shouting "I AM RIGHT' fine, all you fuckers think you got it right, ok, can you do it without all the tribalism and political violence and come up with a neutral setting?

Judaism claims that everyone else is the Devil's spawn and that they should tear down their religious artifacts and steal their land because they are God's chosen people (First Commandment stuff).

Christians claim that the Jews are full of it and that they killed Jesus and everyone hates them.    

Islam claims that Judaism and Christianity are right but that it's more right than they are.  Various muslims claim that other muslims in different sects are evil and try to kill them whenever they get a chance.  

The Mormons claim that Judaism and Christianity are right but that Mormonism is more right than they are.  They "say" that Islam is BS because they don't mention it.
They hate Catholics.

If you don't mind, I'm going to print this and hand out copies promoting Interdenominational Brotherhood Week.
