Only with theists who "want to save us from our own evilness"

Sorry El D but yes..I am a "Grumpy old W.H.O.R.E of Babylon"

I wish he would just "Fuck Off" or wank or what ever gets his gonads happy. Not proselytising on this forum. I have had a bad enough experience with jeebus freaks to not like the tenor of this imbecile.

A little conversation I had with my theology professor after his lecture on Christian ethics...

Me: Sir, God is omnipotent do you agree?
Professor: Of course!
Me: And you dedicate your life to his will?
Professor: Yes
Me: And good and evil is not opinionated?
Professor: Yes that's true
Me: So what if God wills you to do something evil?
Professor: .....???.........???..............
Me: Like Abraham who attempted to kill his son?
Professor: Ah... that's not evil... just get its meaning

...

...

Me: What the...???

God is good - NOT all the time!

Evil would be masturbating... Or pre-marital sex... Or not worshipping an egotistical, megalomaniac.

I know right? Religious morality is flawed big time and virtually no one see it. I am really happy I saw it beforehand - hope more people will see it too.

When why are they deserving of worship?

A god by title alone is not a god.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Depends on the meaning of your title I guess.

"King Nothing" comes to mind.
