The impossibility of atheism : Comments

By Peter Sellick, published 29/1/2009

The God that atheists do not believe in is not the God that Christians worship, but rather an idol of our own making or unmaking.

I must admit that the way most non believers lives gives more proof to the devil than God. Funny however that at funeral time they all want everyone to believe they are in heaven. After thousands of years of trying to deny God all we have is the hopelessly inept and flawed fantasy of evolution in trying to explain our existence. Their really is nothing new under the sun.

How bizarre. This implies that I need to research something in order not to believe. I don't like eating chicken's feet which is a material item that I have tried and now choose not to eat again. God is perceived as a non 3D element - I choose not to acknowledge such thing in my life. Atheism is the norm. Society/culture adds religious elements.

Christianity is a lie and has always been so. The basis of Christianity is the old scapegoat theory where you take an innocent being, animal or human, praise it and lavish gifts upon it. In some way this transfers sin from the one doing the praising to the praised. When the object of praise is sacrificed the sin dies also.
In the Christian version original sin came about because a woman disobeyed God, and original sin is passed down through the female line. The object of praise, Jesus, could not be free of sin as claimed because he must have, according to Christian dogma, inherited original sin through the female line. If original sin is true the purity of Jesus fails. If the purity of Jesus is true original sin fails. Either way Christianity cannot be true.
The Christian churches have always known that its dogma was a lie. That is why in 1854 Pius the ninth issued a papal decree saying that by a special act of grace Mary had been declared free of sin from the moment of her conception.
What this hideous piece of retrospective church legislation did was to;
1. Give Mary an immaculate conception eighteen hundred years after she died.
2. Give Mary absolution for being a woman.
3. Confirm that all other women, singularly and collectively, are responsible for all sin and suffering in this world.
Christianity is not a religion. It is a legal system. It is one of the three Abramic religions (with Judaism and Islam) that owe there origins to Abram, and each claims to be God's lawyers on Earth.
Christianity does not teach the teachings of Jesus, it uses Jesus to claim legitimacy for legal power it does not have.
Son of God or not Jesus once freed from the prison of Christianity Jesus had a lot to offer. This include;
Woe unto you Pharisees, you are the keeper of the way of knowledge. You do not enter yourselves, nor do you allow others to enter. And the key lies rusty in the lock.

Sells,
The God you describe is not the God of the Old Testament.(Does the OT mention a Trinity?)
If you do not accept the God of the OT Don't call yourself a Christian.
