Angels For Those Who Don't Believe

RE: Angels For Those Who Don't Believe
I like how she offers how indoctrinated her child has been as proof. I'll never understand how that aspect is overlooked by the followers of any given religion.

RE: Angels For Those Who Don't Believe
This makes me think of some especially poetic song lyrics by Rush.


"I wasn't walking with angels
I was talking to myself
Rising up to the surface
raging against the night
starless night."

Sweet miracle- Rush, 2001
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

For fucks sake. Indoctrination makes me so sick. Parading it around as an achievement is pathetic.

"I believe everything my child tells me!"

"...as long as it fits in with my delusions, of course. I'm highly sceptical about everything else."

That was actually the face palm moment in an otherwise excellent episode. 24/7 somebody is looking at the Statue of Liberty. If that's not true, it certainly would be if it ever moved.

I had a dream my dog was driving my car, that must be proof that dogs can drive!
The meek shall inherit the Earth, the rest of us will fly to the stars.

Never underestimate the power of very stupid people in large groups

Arguing with an engineer is like wrestling with a pig in mud ..... after a while you realise that the pig likes it!

No. Don't be ridiculous. This is proof that dogs can drive:

'The more I learn about people the more I like my dog'- Mark Twain

'You can have all the faith you want in spirits, and the afterlife, and heaven and hell, but when it comes to this world, don't be an idiot. Cause you can tell me you put your faith in God to put you through the day, but when it comes time to cross the road, I know you look both ways.' - Dr House

“Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom

"If my good friend Doctor Gasparri speaks badly of my mother, he can expect to get punched.....You cannot provoke. You cannot insult the faith of others. You cannot make fun of the faith of others. There is a limit." - Pope Francis on freedom of speech

Not only can your seeing eye dog get you to your car, but he can drive you to the store and back.

I had a dream that my dog came back after I took him to the vet after he was put down. Does that mean dogs have souls?

I want to see what the mom says if the kid ever has a nightmare instead of a happy fluffy dream. I bet then all of a sudden it's all "Sh, sh, it's not real, it can't possibly effect you!".
