Crucifixion as substitutionary atonement is barbaric and ridiculous. I want no part of it.
They tell me that their Jesus died for me. But that’s absurd. A scapegoat can’t pay the price for someone else’s sins. It’s barbaric and ridiculous and I want no part of it.
If I said I’d risen from the dead you’d say I’m playing games, If I claimed 500 witnesses you’d want to know their names.
If you want to convince me that something is true, If you’re making the claim then the burden’s on you. If I said I’d risen from the dead you’d say I’m playing games, If I claimed 500 witnesses you’d want to know their names. And if I said God wrote my diary, I’d anticipate inquiry. How you’d react to my diary, Is how your Bible seems to me. Of course, my diary’s bollocks, as you knew, As to the Bible, the burden of proof is on you!
All decent people loathe the things you do in your God’s name!
I neither hate nor fear your God, but here’s the real shame: All decent people loathe the things you do in your God’s name!

Do you think Bishop Budde’s sermon reflects true Christian values or should she have refrained from asking the most powerful to have mercy for the powerless?

He no longer makes lightning, volcanos or trees,
No divine visitations bring us to our knees!
He’s the God of the gaps,
And that’s all you can say.
As His hiding places shrink,
He will soon go away!

So many Armageddons past,
So many days that weren’t the last,
For you the end can’t come too fast.
My death is just the price you’ll pay,
So gladly to be on your way,
And if I’m damned – well, that’s OK!
I’ve written a little poem for all those Christians who love to gloat about their salvation and my alleged damnation. It only lasts two minutes. Have a listen and tell me what you think in the comments.
Two people who I never knew did something that I didn’t do, so I deserve to burn in Hell!
I can be forgiven for what I didn’t do, because some other people crucified a bloke who didn’t do it too!
He is risen!
So He’s not dead?
Was all that ‘sacrifice’ stuff
Just in your head?
There’s nothing ‘good’ about ‘Good Friday’!
There’s nothing ‘good’ about ‘Good Friday ‘. It’s an illustration of the unimaginable stupidity of the fictional God of Abraham and the barbaric sado-masochistic fantasies of the authors who dreamed Him up!
This Friday isn’t good!
