Stupid things religious people say

[Fake Messiah]

Not embalmed doesn't necessarily mean not preserved. The RCC is known to (quietly) mummify possible candidates for sainthood.

Not to mention how the bar for miracles has lowered. In the times before investigative journalism and the scientific method, god used to supposedly raise people from the dead, but now he is just keeping the corpse pretty.

Hindus sure love their cow shit

Scientists decry cow dung 'anti-radiation' claim

A group of Indian scientists has decried a Union government agency’s invocation of experiments by physicists at Gujarat’s Saurashtra University to claim cow dung can shield people from radiation.

The experiments purportedly showed that cow-dung cakes partially blocked radiation from radioactive caesium. The Rashtriya Kamadhenu Aayog, a unit under the Union fisheries, animal husbandry and dairying ministry and tasked with cow conservation, has cited these findings to support a claim made last October by its chairman, Vallabhbhai Kathiria, about cow dung being “anti-radiation”.

The scientists said on Monday that the experiments represent a “classic example” of a study designed to reach a predetermined conclusion, and that they are “sad to see” physics teachers in a state university willing to indulge in pseudoscience.

Some have likened the cow-dung study by the Saurashtra University physicists to “papers” on heaven and hell published by scientists in Pakistan in the 1980s during the reign of Zia-ul Haq.

Parallels have been drawn with what Pakistani physicist Pervez Hoodbhoy had documented in Pakistan during the 1980s. One university professor of physics in Pakistan had written a paper on the speed at which heaven was departing from Earth and another scientist had published a paper on the temperature of hell, Hoodbhoy had once recalled to this newspaper.

“Cow dung protects everybody. It is anti-radiation. It prevents radiation. If it comes home, the entire home will be eco-friendly, free of radiation. This has been proven through science,” Kathiriya had said.

A Facebook page called Christian Patriots posted the images and wrote, “Look at the faces on these children, I feel in my spirit, they even knew there was something satanic with making them be photographed with these clothes on. If you are a Christian and a parent and you shop at target, Lord, have mercy on you.”

Another Facebook user named Linda Vee Sado wrote, “Target has really gone over the edge. Not enough they are making girlie swimsuits for little boys to tuck. They need to go away too.”

Sado’s comment referenced a tuck-friendly adult swimsuit that right-wingers claimed was directed at children. Conservatives have also falsely claimed that Target was selling Satanic-themed apparel created by a transgender designer, leading to death threats against the designer. Employees at one Arizona store kicked out a bigot who called Target’s Pride merchandise “Satanic Pride propaganda.” Religious conservatives and conspiracy theorists have long claimed that LGBTQ+ people and culture are Satanic.

Nun’s body exhumed 4 years after death and shows no signs of decay. People are claiming its a real life “miracle”

Fun for the whole family. Imagine taking your child to touch an exhumed body that's been dead for 4 years.

[Anomalocaris]

napoleon’s body was also found to be intact and uncorrupted not 4 years but decades after his death. perhaps the great Corsican who seized his crown from the sulking pope, pronounced it far less stupid to worship the sun then christian god, was excommunicated by the RCC, was also working miracles?

Fox Host: There's an Afterlife So We Don't Have to Worry About Combating Climate Change

The GOP is against climate science because their corporate backers want to be able to pollute the planet. So they have to come out with reasons to ignore the clear damage that is happening to the planet. Fox News' Rachel Campos-Duffy came up with a doozy over the weekend.

The Fox host began by saying that the split between Republicans and Democrats comes down to faith. She said, "It changes the way you look even at politics. And sometimes, you know, we look at how hard on the left they play. They really play for keeps. They play in a way that's very, you know, a lot of times conservatives look at it and go, why don't we play as hard as them."

"Well, for them, where we live right now, this place, Earth is it. So everything's on the line here for them. They think, as you said, they can perfect this Earth. Those of us who have faith don't believe that. And we believe how we act here determines where we go after. And so we had to behave."

"And so even in politics, we don't, you know, we act within those moral limits. And you know, the ends justify the means is sort of the rules for radicals. That's not how Christians act."

The damage is caused by low income countries that emit 5 times more CO2 than the US. American corporations have nothing to do with climate change.

That is not true, so stop spreading misinformation. "The top five countries that have produced in aggregate the most CO2 since the Industrial Revolution are the United States, China, Russia, Germany, and the U.K."

Meanwhile... Good Christians at Fox News: the devil is getting inside people in the US, even into the president himself.

Future cumulative CO2 emissions would overwhelmingly come from low income countries since their emissions are growing while US emissions are falling
