Before Your Very Eyes

Jesus.

Ask 3 theists what Jesus means to them and you’ll get 3 different answers back and almost always good, I’ve always wondered why this is. A couple of verses in the bible stick out in mind as to why I think differently about him:
Matthew 5:21-22
21 Ye have heard that it was said of them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment: 
22 But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.

Being angry is a sin? This is like 1984, (a shitty version albeit but there it is) thought crimes are a sin. How does one rationalize this and equate any of this as a deserving punishment for anyone? Murder someone=hellfire, think the wrong way and your ass is burnt bacon for all of eternity. How is that loving and just? What person in their right mind would adhere to those kind of teachings in the first place?

A Christian would thats who, a person that shuts his/her brain off and blindly accept the “teachings” of Christ. I know I asked more questions than I answered but it confuses me as to why anyone would follow that. I plan on dissecting many of christs words of “wisdom”. Let me know what you think.

1st time doing something like this

Hello, before I begin let me introduce myself.

Some of you may know me as @Roc_Star_Don on twitter, My real name is Fidel Castro(yes thats my name) and I’m in the U.S. Army. I have deployed 3 times and been station at places the world over. I’m also an atheist and have been for going on almost 15 years.

Heres my story to atheism:

Like most atheists I grew up in a traditional christian home, everytime the doors were open at church we were there. I was drunk off of the Jesus juice. I did everything you could imagine, from singing in the youth choir to helping my father with getting communion ready and everything else in between. At about age 10 I started having my doubts about religion and being the natrually curious person that I was, I started to question it. I used to ask people the “tough” questions in my church and no one could answer them. 

5 years later I became an atheist. The final straw was seeing how adults acted over a title that had no meaning to anyone outside of that church. There was fighting, slut shaming, people “repenting” to shame other people when they were just as guilty. At that age I saw that religion only divides people and I couldn’t take it anymore. One day I finally broke down and told my mom and dad that I was an atheist. They seemed okay with it at first, they said they understood and that was that. A few weeks later they told pretty much everyone that I knew and then some that I was an atheist and I need to be “helped” back to Christ.  I was ostracized by all of my friends, girlfriend at the time (she was a cunt in hindsight), and my family. At 19 I joined the Army and got the fuck outta there.

So thats my story and theres more to follow, mostly drunk ramblings.

 

Twitter Annoyances

“I don’t like what you said it offended me.”

“Do you RT things so your followers can attack them?”

“You’re are giving Atheism a bad name.”

 

These are all things I have heard during my time on Twitter and I’m sure you have too. First of all I don’t plan on changing a thing, and if you don’t like it you can fuck right off and unfollow me. No harm done. But to tell me what to do with my own damn account will get you a one way ticket to getting cussed out because I don’t remember agreeing in the TOS that I had to @ anyone and ask my permission to post anything.

Secondly, atheism is the lack of belief in a god or a deity. How people decide they want to do this is solely on them. Morality, how someone acts, posts or any of that is irrelavent to atheism. The only thing that make us all the same is that we don’t believe in god. Who the flying fuck are you to tell me how I should do it on Twitter of all places? I became an athist to get away from the dogma and that sounds suspiciously like it to me.

Lastly, I don’t RT things to start fights with people. I post it purely for my entertainment and if its stupid enough I will RT it. What my followers do after that is beyond my control. I am not sitting at my phone thinking “Hey! This will get that fucking theists panties in a bunch by siccing my followers on him/her!!!!111!!!” That is never my intentions but if people think that I’m doing that I want to reiterate that no, I am not here to start shit with anyone. Theist, or otherwise.

Well thats all for now folks. Remember Keep calm and reason on.
