Happy Birthday, Gwaithmir!

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Happy Birthday!
The first revolt is against the supreme tyranny of theology, of the phantom of God. As long as we have a master in heaven, we will be slaves on earth.

RE: Happy Birthday, Gwaithmir!
I got a call from my housekeeper, Sherry, today. She told me she wanted to bring over some pillows to replace the old ones in my bedroom. Needless to say, I was surprised when she showed up with my brother Bill and Dane, my houseboy. They brought along a sugar-free birthday cake made with Splenda. We went to my enclosed front porch to visit and enjoy the cake with coffee. While we chatted, I drew everyone's attention to my Eastern Phoebes' nest under the eaves, still under construction. Afterward, we played Mahjong for a couple of hours. We all had a wonderful time, and I thanked Sherry profusely for setting the whole thing up. She gave me an electric eggbeater before leaving. This was the best birthday I've had in several years.  Party Time
