Do you also unto me

You say that your morality comes from that book you read.

“Whatsoever you do to the least of my brethren, do you also unto me”

(Matthew 25:41-46)

You say that your morality comes from that book you read, its pages stuffed with guidance for the living and the dead. But if that’s true then why do you ignore so very much? What other moral guide informs your choices as you clutch your pearls and criticise, condemn your fellow men and hang on to your riches instead of helping them?

Did not Jesus say to sell it all, give proceeds to the needy? Conveniently you forget that part, it’s all so very seedy.

You focus on the Bible bits that let you judge your neighbours, judging trans men for their lack of tits and trans women get no favours. They can’t even use a public loo without explaining it to you.

You oppose sex education but insist girls go full term after a night of uneducated enthusiasm when her ova met his sperm. Some of you even shun the girl to raise her child alone. Is that really what your Jesus wants whose guidance you have overthrown.

You long for resurrection when you say I’ll go to Hell

But if your Bible tells the truth then you’ll be there as well.

By the book

By the book… a book most Christians have never read.

“It’s by the book!” Those Bible-bashing God-botherers said,
But if you look you’ll notice it’s a book they never read!

They’d better hope they’re wrong. They won’t enjoy the judgement half as much as they think.

The end is not nigh

There’s no second coming. There wasn’t even a first. And there will be no stars falling to earth. That’s impossible.

The world isn’t ending – really, it’s not. Bible literalists like to claim that we’re in the end times. They claim to have prophecies to prove it. You know like Jesus’ prophecy that says “There shall be wars and rumours of wars”. Yeah, well show me a time – show me a single day since the New Testament was written down when that hasn’t been true.

That was Mark 13 verse 7. But the real reason not to take Jesus seriously here is found in Mark 13:25…

The end really isn’t nigh – at least not by any ‘second coming’
