‘Dawkins, Hitchens and Harris Islamophobic,’ says Salon Magazine?! These men are RELIGIOPHOBIC due to the infectious idiocy of blind faith! I, as an anti-theist, agree with them fully and DON”T CARE what the ‘New SS’ says about my opinions; the New SS being the complete Left Wing nut jobs that patrol the PC universe. Let me remind my readers that I am a completely independent thinking middle of the road politico. I subscribe to common sense and reason over knee-jerk Left or Right reactionary bullshit. I weigh the issues and think before I draw a conclusion. Example: Obama is same old politics as usual. George W. was an idiot legacy child of a political dynasty, there!  Obama is just a crooked Chicago lawyer, is that too hard to fathom in politics?

Now back to the subject. Hitchens said in his book, ‘god id NOT great’ that religion poisons everything, and he was right. Dennett, Dawkins and Harris continue the ‘Four Horsemen’ fight against religious oppression by attacking the idiocy put forth by the religions in particular! They are simply pointing out what is obvious on today’s religious fronts. Right now Islam is responsible for many of the world’s ills. All religion poisons, it’s just that Islam is particularly poisonous right at this juncture. Thank the above-mentioned scholars for telling the truth about these awful blind-faith diseases and getting the sizable press coverage. Thank you to Salon for just playing into the game and further publicizing the atheist agenda.

Right now you have these PC idiots trying with all of their might to legislate EVERYTHING that a human being says so that they can control free speech. These are the very same people who drive the Suby to the Whole Foods to get the green smoothie for the acupuncture session and talk about ‘Moderate Muslims,’ oblivious to the European Imams publicized remarks about just ‘sitting back and breeding out; the Infidel. 

Religion is bad no matter what! Why?! Because you DON”T see scientists ‘just blindly’ following facts! Facts are right in front of the face! It doesn’t take blind faith to look into a microscope or a telescope and identify what you are looking at, it takes intelligence! Religion promotes blindness and always will regardless of how many religious institutions teach science. They also try to screw up the works with unproven mythology and faulty religious doctrine. The only reason that these institutions have great science programs is because the churches are more loyal to the dollar than they are to GOD!

Astronomers Anticipate 100 Billion Earth-Like Planets

Apr. 3, 2013 — Researchers at The University of Auckland have proposed a new method for finding Earth-like planets and they anticipate that the number will be in the order of 100 billion.

The strategy uses a technique called gravitational microlensing, currently used by a Japan-New Zealand collaboration called MOA (Microlensing Observations in Astrophysics) at New Zealand’s Mt John Observatory. Their work will appear in the Oxford University Press journal Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society.

Lead author Dr Phil Yock from the University of Auckland’s Department of Physics explains that the work will require a combination of data from microlensing and the NASA Kepler space telescope.

“Kepler finds Earth-sized planets that are quite close to parent stars, and it estimates that there are 17 billion such planets in the Milky Way. These planets are generally hotter than Earth, although some could be of a similar temperature (and therefore habitable) if they’re orbiting a cool star called a red dwarf.”

“Our proposal is to measure the number of Earth-mass planets orbiting stars at distances typically twice the Sun-Earth distance. Our planets will therefore be cooler than the Earth. By interpolating between the Kepler and MOA results, we should get a good estimate of the number of Earth-like, habitable planets in the Galaxy. We anticipate a number in the order of 100 billion.”

“Of course, it will be a long way from measuring this number to actually finding inhabited planets, but it will be a step along the way.”

The first planet orbiting a Sun-like star was not found until 1995, despite strenuous efforts by astronomers. Dr Yock explains that this reflects the difficulty of detecting from a distance a tiny non-luminous object like Earth orbiting a bright object like the Sun. The planet is lost in the glare of the star, so indirect methods of detection must be used.

Whereas Kepler measures the loss of light from a star when a planet orbits between us and the star, microlensing measures the deflection of light from a distant star that passes through a planetary system en route to Earth — an effect predicted by Einstein in 1936.

In recent years, microlensing has been used to detect several planets as large as Neptune and Jupiter. Dr Yock and colleagues have proposed a new microlensing strategy for detecting the tiny deflection caused by an Earth-sized planet. Simulations carried out by Dr Yock and his colleagues — students and former students from The University of Auckland and France — showed that Earth-sized planets could be detected more easily if a worldwide network of moderate-sized, robotic telescopes was available to monitor them.

Coincidentally, just such a network of 1m and 2m telescopes is now being deployed by Las Cumbres Observatory Global Telescope Network (LCOGT) in collaboration with SUPA/St Andrews (Scottish Universities Physics Alliance), with three telescopes in Chile, three in South Africa, three in Australia, and one each in Hawaii and Texas. This network is used to study microlensing events in conjunction with the Liverpool Telescope in the Canary Islands which is owned and operated by Liverpool John Moores University.

It is expected that the data from this suite of telescopes will be supplemented by measurements using the existing 1.8m MOA telescope at Mt John, the 1.3m Polish telescope in Chile known as OGLE, and the recently opened 1.3m Harlingten telescope in Tasmania.

The article will be published in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society. 

Sam Harris and Islam

Standard

Sam Harris is as you state, anti-theist as am I. I am not interested in pandering to Islam or to any other religion. The plain truth as demonstrated by the followers of these faiths is that we are all better off without them.

I don’t wanna be a little bitch, buuut….

Aside

“Only a complete fool accepts things as fact without proof.” -G.Olson, thebraveatheist.


Why this blog!?

This blog is here because I thought that my co-workers and my boss might be a little put off by my atheist thoughts. I don’t want people to leave my Facebook just because they feel uncomfortable with my views because I respect everyone’s freedom to believe whatever they want. If you believe in the Easter Bunny then that is your prerogative and none of my business . 


Do I hate theists?

I don’t! I have nothing against religious people but despise the lies and deceit of religion. My belief in logic and reason relegates religious practice to a mindless belief in something to avoid the inevitability of the unknown/death. We created GOD in OUR image to believe that our infinitesimal asses do not disappear at the end of the physical being. My version of “Hate the sin, love the sinner” is “Hate the deception, love the deceived” so I’ll try not to offend to much, but the promise is thin, even if it is not always an easy task with all those religious idiots such as Pat Robertson and Joel Osteen out there. Besides, if I was not insulting, religious people would not stay here and listen to my arguments in order to give a response unfounded in science, reason or proof and I actually WANT that. People tend to listen to your opinions more when you are hypercritical and challenge the core of something that is the cornerstone of their being, and I serve the purpose of trying to enlighten the lemming populace that they have been hoo-dooed by the vast machinations of the religious juggernaut. So, MOVE OVER Milquetoast! You will need a quick mind to try and Bill O’Reilly my ass!


Atheism Explained

Atheism is often used disparagingly to describe an angry person who is denying god for whatever hateful reason they can conjure. This is an absolutely biased, untrue position on a very sensible choice. Atheism is nothing more than the absence of belief in a deity-Period! 

Many times theists claim atheists have no basis for non-belief and try using science against them. Clever educated believers commonly use circuitous explanations of revisionist pseudo-science to confound atheists not skilled in the art of debate or research. They pat themselves on the back for every non-believer that they skewer who has no scientific background or one who is easily overwhelmed by a strong personality, so I recommend that if questioned, the novice debater should employ a more experienced orator.

‘To know for certainty that god does not exist, one would have to search the whole world,’ it is said. This is the straw man fallacy. Atheism as a system of non-belief, does not deal with evidence against god, it concerns the lack thereof. The only logical position is not to believe in anything without concrete proof, and this is exactly how we describe weak atheism. Unfortunately there are a multitude of weak atheists who are only atheists for lack of belief in anything. These people usually have no idea how to defend against a theist attack and are basically reformed atheists/christians in the making. Lemmings come in all shapes and sizes and from the entire spectrum of beliefs. 

Moreover, you don’t have to search  the whole world to understand that things which are intrinsically impossible, such as invisible old fairies in the sky, leprechauns, unicorns and and other complete fallacies that chase to fringes of insanity!

A few good reasons to consider common sense( Atheism ).

Of course you don’t become an atheist if you really believe in God. But if you logically have come to the conclusion that there is no god you shouldn’t continue the charade! Honesty with oneself only frees the mind and clears to guilt placed by religion. A false belief in god/gods has several disadvantages. As an atheist:

  • You don’t have to believe the priests and pastors at funerals when they tell you that your loved ones where sinful. (I find it extremely rude and inappropriate for the clergy to constantly bring up sin, unworthiness and all the other mythological bullshit when laying a person to rest.)
  • There is no one watching you when you masturbate, have sex, go to the bathroom or do anything else private. If I believed in such a god, I would certainly be watching the skies every time I choked it! Only Superman can see though stuff! Oh, he isn’t real either? Shit
  • You won’t be punished eternally for your transgressions. (i.e. Hell is a fucking myth and you aren’t going! Heaven is also a myth so when you die yer feedin’ the fucking worms!)
  • You won’t be conned into buying $500 prayer cloths and you won’t be giving all of your money to buy god a satellite dish!
  • There are no hideous devils to fear (except for religious fundamentalists. Some of them are really dangerous, such as people that blow up abortion clinics and buses, kill doctors or issue death penalties on authors)
  • You don’t have to waste your time reading Bronze-age myths to decide on how to live a moral life.

Thank GAWD!

I saw an interesting but tragic news story on Saturdat that featured a man who was swallowed up by a sinkholewhile sleeping. The funny thing was is that 2 days after this had happened they called off the search and are assuming that the guy is dead. On the sidelines the guy’s family is seeing it as a sign from god that the family bible made it out of the house intact! Maybe, just maybe the LOGICAL thing to do would be to ask why oh why the fuck did ‘you’ have to take whats-his-nuts and save us the fucking BIBLE?! These idiots probably go with the Gawd’s Plan explanation anyway. Also, it seems quite clear that Tebowing is no longer helping Tim Tebow as his star is already on the wane! Should he file a grievance or just change gods? If you can fire your agent for not doing his job, can you not fire your GOD for not living up to ‘his’ promises? I would! Hey Zeus! Yaweh just ain’t cuttin’ it these days regardless of how often I make myself look like an idiot Tebowing to him. You want the job? Show me da munny!! No less than $20 million to sign! I am also fiddling with my hitchens67 youtube channel to put up some special effects and get it more interesting. Please visit if you have an inclination, I would greatly appreciate it and I comment in return! I will be adding some historical points and some debating info for the non-believer to use in arguements so look for this as well. I will catch up to y’all later and peace out!

4th of July and freedom

Standard

Hello all,

I write today to celebrate the freedom that we are to enjoy on this coming 4th of July, our independence day. I write to celebrate all of the illusions that we hold dear and are willing to protect , even unto death, against the onslaught of the actual free thinker, that bastard that tells us that we are not truly free, that it is all just smoke and mirrors. I feel enormous pride that my system has allowed me to be brainwashed into a culture of debt and indentured servitude that puts the rich far above me at a record pace year after year. I feel pride that banks have invented fee after fee and ATM charges so that they may sit on their asses and collect hundreds of billions of dollars a year without even working for it! I love it! I also love how liberals ignore it and how conservatives say that we have our wills we can take it or leave it! Really!!?? If we were smarter than the brainwashers we would not have an average personal debt of 25-35,000 dollars!

Since 1950, credit cards have brought us into the era of financial slavery and convinced us that it is normal to have running balances! My grandma used to say that debt was a sin and a SHAME! and most of our grandparents were raised to believe that way and usually wouldn’t buy something unless they could pay for it in cash! As a matter of fact a passage in Proverbs even says that ‘the borrower is a SLAVE to the lender!’ I am an atheist but that is the most intelligent quote that I have read in the bible( not capitalized because I do not revere it in any way shape or form). Even the freakin bible says that debt is a mistake!

I found a great program by a christian guy named Dave Ramsey and it is AWESOME! I ignore the bible quotes and follow the complete fucking financial logic that this guy speaks of! I intend to be debt free in a couple of years and can see an end in sight. You guys out there can too as long as you follow a system that lets you see your money with your own eyes. The debit crowd loses money because they don’t see it leave their hands. They use a debit card or credit card and never see the true amount that they spend thereby getting themeselves over their heads in debt and paying minimal payments on 6 fucking credit cards and NEVER truly paying off the debt! You need to SEE the money! The bank has fooled you with the cashless system and even has people looking at you strange when you pay for purchases in cash! The cashless system was DESIGNED for this! The cashless system has tricked Americans and people from other civilized countries into living an entire life in debt to the fucking bank! TELL ME THIS SHIT IS NOT TRUE! Why would you not pay a few thousand for a car and then save the entire amount up for the second car that is almost new? Why? Beacause the bank WANTS you to spend on the interest rate! People who make money are encouraged to spend on interest rates and pay minimum payments, rent furniture, take out loans on shit and remodel on credit because it keeps them in debt and ALWAYS paying something into the banking system! I, personally have no credit cards, and for those scoffers, I am in the upper tier wage earners in the country and am working to have zero debt by 2014. I have my own house and two almost paid off late model cars, my own furniture and a great income. My aim is to maximize my incomes worth to me and quit being a slave to the billionaires of this world!

I have blazed the trail for my children. My oldest and my 10yr old have both come to me after talking to people about the bible and have tearfully explained to me that they do not believe in god. I replied that I was proud of them to make such an important decision on their own and that I didn’t judge them. I have not coached them but have found that educated kids who are not primed with bullshit will eventually use logic to come to a reasonable conclusion. Reasonable meaning that they believe science over fairy tale crap that has not a shred of proof! Anyway, I must go and make chicken for the salad and leave you good people alone for now. Peace out and keep reason in your mind!

Still about me!!

Hey Y’all! Me again comin’ ta you frum Wawshington Boy!!

I am totally fine with the mother unit dying in a nursing home because I havn’t known her in 30 years as I have been at war with her for 30+ years! I fell out with her when I first questioned her about the sanity of travelling without the means to do so about 32 years ago. I wondered how the vagabond lifestyle would effect a child of 9 in the long run and was told that I was the lone dissenter in the group. Lets ask the dependents if the leader is fucking up and see what they say having been dependent upon this fucking idiot for their whole lives! Good decision! No, I questioned the logic first hand and called her on the groupthink bullshit early! Obviously I thought that the people blindly following her had to be hoodoo’d by her and considered their opinions to be suspect! People from the outside had told me that the vagabonding was bullshit and I believed them based on what caring parents had provided for their children.

I have so far , not fed my children out of a trash can. That was my choice! I have striven for career work with stable hours and have done what it takes for my family to have what they need. I would also break any law that I had to to make sure that they eat well. I would do whatever it takes to secure their future regardless if it screwed my own future. I believe that my purpose on this earth is to make sure that my children have the best that is possible in this life. To challenge my children is to challenge me and if you want to win you had better damn  well kill me because you certainly will die if you falter! I will feast on your fucking head if you damage one of mine and I will then beat you to death. Caution to you. Kill everyone! If you don’t then I will methodically hunt you down and eliminate you in the most horrible way possible!

I just want to rectify the way in which parenting is executed. I will kill the child molester and be in the face of the  asshole! Just let me have a moment with one who is questionable with a child. I will prevail. I WILL know them if they are a piece of shit! Any parent will have ‘that feeling.’   No one can pay a debt to society for a crime such as child molestation! Know you if you come across me that I will  NEVER forgive you for a transgression against a child! You are not my friend or even an aquiantance! You are a potential dead fuck is what you are! NEVER CAN YOU EVER PAY A DEBT TO SOCIETY FOR YOUR CRIME! As a person who is innocent you are fine, but that is obvious. Most creepers are unable to hide themselves. I am there to help parents if they need it and respect honesty. My mom exposed us to  her bullshit and people tried to co-depend her bullshit. Fuck that! She had free will as described by the Christians, so fuck her and her idiot decisions. Where were we in all that? We just get to have her bullshit explained by ‘ she did the best with what she was given.’ FUCK HER and her fucking asshole friends! You fucks gave her the freedom to have kids and fuck them up!! If the explanation holds then fuck you assholes and fuck my responsibility to step in for her at at the end of her life!! She rots in a state run facility because she NEVER took responsibility for her children!! Where is her GOD at this time when he should have been telling her to stand up for her kids?!! Her youngest was trying to convince her that the oldest was molesting him and now the oldest has 4 counts of child molestation against him + prison time! Goodbye Mom and hopefully god bless if the bastard exists!!
