krissthesexyatheist, as he calls himself and his blog, is mocking Christianity, and particularly some biblical literalists, with mocking voice and spelling meant to show that Christians don’t know what they are talking about. And he does?
Lies and deception are just a couple of the reasons we have for turning from Team Belief to Team Atheist. Really man, was there really a guy named Jesus that walked da erffs, did that Exodus thing really happen . . .
[ . . . ]
Let’s line up some bible stories and check out the truth factors. Let’s virgin birth, probably not, and that goes for the resurrection also. Those are both highly unlikely events. Did the Exodus happen, mmmm, probably not because dontcha think we would have seen evidence of a great migration in the way of pottery, poo poo, skeletons, food whatever by now. I think so. Howz about the Shroud of Turin. Fakey fake, yo.
So we have all these lies, or if you want you can call them untruths, that the bible supposedly told us. Jesus was born on december 25th.
Actually, such postings only help convince me that I’m right.
“The fool says in his hear, ‘there is no God.'”
Two comments:
1) The guy is clearly a narcissist – [“Look at me – I can blog about nothing!”] As for “Team” Atheist – I couldn’t get to see any comments on his site so far, could be the other atheists are ignoring him – how frustrating that must be for a narcissist!
2) He’s a specific example of the predictable reaction against Biblical literalism. The literalists bring true religion into so much disrepute, that they themselves inadvertently create the myth of implausible religion, with the result that guys like this think they’re doing a world a service in lampooning it. I note his emphasis on “dinosaurs on the Ark and the myth of the Great Flood” – this is the natural fruit of the creationists’ doctrine. I bet he’s never heard of the Epic of Gilgamesh and the Babylonian survivor of the Great Flood, Utnapishtim. I don’t know that any rational person believes in the God that Krisetc doesn’t believe in. “Faith without Rationality is Fanaticism” and maybe deserves lampooning! Unfortunately, he’s spreading his net too wide. Probably from a natural inborn ignorance!
I love that picture of “The Fool” all decked out in his pretty best, complete with swag over his shoulder, (no doubt he’s remembered to bring his toothbrush). It’s a clear sunny day, and the little dog is barking his warnings, but the Fool doesn’t see he’s about to walk over the precipice and plunge to his doom.
