Bizarre things my mind conjures up

[Bucky Ball]

"The two greatest frauds in history were Jesus and Mohammed"

Maximilian II, Holy Roman Emperor 1564-1576

He said this in private correspondence to like minded notables, including other rulers.

He used his authority to seek to curb the religious strive going on at the time.

Someone else, during the same period, said:

"There are three factions: Protestants, Catholics, and Atheists, and the Atheists are by far the majority"

Martin Luther said:

"These people should be killed wherever they can be found".

He was talking about Atheists.

In the latter part of the 14th century it is said that there was more atheist-style thinking going on (that there is "no God") in England than there was over the next 400 years. This freedom of thought was suppressed in the early 15th century.

Lying again. Zhaitan loves you!

Maybe I'm possessed?

Maybe you can't post without screwing it up?

This is more bizarre than the individual threads as all were merged.

I doubt it's more confusing than before.

Trying to tidy up a bit.

Do we have an Official Atheist Forums Captain Anecdote Sash?

I retract my condolences, Go fuck yourself.

According to the Muslims (some of them at least) Jesus was a very smart baby. The moment he was born he started preaching.

Silly sods.

None of them had ever met a baby...apparently...which beggars fucking belief.
