Pastor Compares Atheists to Sex Offenders.
|
Oh dear..
I can't but be a little bit amused by the fact that atheists are compared to child molesters etc. It just shows how ignorant these morons can be. I myself have been called on several occations (by religious people, I might add) a saint, angel, good and kind.. Well, I think you get the gist of it. Now, if I said to those people that I am an atheist, I wonder if they'd take it back and start calling me a rapist instead, no matter how "good" I was seconds before.  As for the branding, I think it's a horrible idea. On the other hand, my next tattoo will be the Darwin-fish, so I guess I don't actually have a say in this matter. Though, I want it because of my love for biology, not (only) because I'm an atheist 
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
Hi Kayenneh...try the linkys below for ideas. I know that my daughter wanted one with the evolution of marine life on the outside of the circle...be buggered if I can find it atm.

Oooh! Thanks, KichigaiNeko, those pics are pretty awesome! The one that I have in mind though, is the Darwin-fish drawn by myself in my own style so that it'll match the style of the tattoo I already have. And I want it to have an mischievous smirk

Marvelous piece of inking

According to Stahl, the nation should set up an “Atheist Registry” in order to provide an updated list of anyone who is a “self-proclaimed atheist,” just as you would do for people convicted of sex crimes or associating with terrorist groups. If this was a catholic priest calling for this, I would be saying "your are calling the kettle black". (September 4, 2011 at 8:43 am)KichigaiNeko Wrote: Hi Kayenneh...try the linkys below for ideas.

In The Greatest Show on Earth by Richard Dawkins had a photo of a female professor having a tattoo of this image ![[Image: tree_of_life.jpeg]](https://images.weserv.nl/?url=scienceblogs.com%2Fpharyngula%2Fupload%2F2010%2F06%2Fradial_tree_of_life%2Ftree_of_life.jpeg)

Interestingly enough I have tried to read a YEC reponse to that book by Jonathan Safarti called The Greatest Hoax on Earth. The cover of the book gives you an indication of how bad it is with it's author calling himself Jonathan Safarti PhD FM (FIDE master which is a master chess player title) on the title. ![[Image: img972.jpg]](https://images.weserv.nl/?url=usstore.creation.com%2Fcatalog%2Fimages%2Fprodimg%2Fimg972.jpg) Do Richard Dawkins, Jerry Coyne, Sam Harris, EO Wilson put Dr at the start or PhD at the end of their names when they address themselves?. No despite they have doctorate degrees.
