How God and the bible started.

I posted quite a while ago since I have been very busy lately. I will try posting at least once a month from now on. I have had this idea for a while now on how God was "created" and with that the bible.


It was 2000 years ago on a day much different from today, these people were bored out of their minds doing boring stuff like working and just slaving around. When this strange elderly man came into town and announced his name to be God. The people obviously didn't care much about this guy and the king send him to work. So this cunning man devised a plan how to get out of the work. He declared he was a superior being and was to be worshiped, the people off coarse listened to his stories and he was quite convincing to those micro-brained people of the biblical time and honestly they were quite baffled with everything and would believe any explanation. 


He started the story at it's illogical beginning where he created the earth and then the life source (the sun) after that he bragged about how he created this guy and women who lived in a garden, but he forbid them to eat the apples, not because of a magical talking snake but because he really loved apples.The story went on and he became famous and so he thought of more, he asked the biggest believers to write down how great he is so everyone would now this (this guy had a massive ego by then). He then started making up rules and by then also raped a young lady and then he claimed she was a virgin and she was giving birth to his son because it was a miracle he made. Everyone believed him once again and he started making crazy rules like a man can have a very young wife because lets face it this guy was a pedophile then later he disliked the people that were smarter and killed them saying it was for there best will.


He was also quite the prankster and one of the biggest ones was when he got this guy to build a big boat and take a lot of animals with him. He sailed away thinking there was a flood while god sat there laughing. Nine month past and he saw this guy, Josef, moving in on his girl he got a bit jealous but then relished there would be no parental responsibilities (like work ) for him. 


As we know genes passed on and so did his manipulating genes to his son named Jesus. They would often pull pranks together like when he multiplied the fish Jesus told them to close their eyes and count to 20 then God put down already caught fish and so they thought it was a miracle while the two men sat snickering behind a rock. He would often tell blind people they were also deaf and he cured them. This went on for years and so God went on a holiday and when he came back he relished Jesus had become more popular than him and then forced them to "kill" him. But this prank for Jesus's side only made him more popular when he pretended to be resurrected. God got revenge by killing him himself a second time. All those other laws was what god enjoyed like eating babies, they were his favorite meal after all. Yes, god said it's fine to eat kids as long as they are well-done and have nice spices. ;) ;)


This a good speculation on how this insane story started wouldn't you say :)


Coming in my next post --> contradictions 


Hope you enjoyed a piece of my strange imagination and thank you for reading.

My history... Part 2

As Carl Sagan famously said, “Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.” Something I learned to be very true as I got older.

As I entered my first year in high school and made new friends, I found myself with friends that were all very religious and the would not go one day without mentioning God. One of my friends I didn't get along with so well even lived at a church and would basically not be able to stop talking about being so religious.

I soon found myself going to the teens for Christ meeting and even once or twice I went along to the morning prayer sessions. It's not that I wanted to go but rather because I didn't know how to say no to them without seeming horrible. I never found this to be fun in the very least and would normally find myself staring out the window admiring my crush outside. My high school years past quickly and I started my tenth year in another new school. My grade 10 year was probably the most boring school year I ever had.

Now we get to the revolutionary part when I started my 11th year. For the first time ever I had my own laptop which was my gateway to research and everything else I wanted. I started to find my passion for science and could simply not stop doing research about it, you could almost call me obsessed. I found myself asking many question about the bible, god and religion because it all seemed to contradict the one thing we had more than enough evidence for Science. No one could answer my questions and simply told me to ignore it, but I couldn't so I went to ask my trusted friend, Google.Then I stumbled upon yahoo answers and found some people debating about Religion. This is when I added a new word to my vocabulary "Atheist ". My natural curiosity made me look up the definition and what I found was absurd to me at that time. I mean people not believing in god, they must be mad, no wait crazy, I could  not believe there were people that didn't believe in God. WOW. Is all I could say but then I found my curiosity tempting me to find argument for religion, proof of god. I wanted to learn and I had an alarming thirst for more knowledge. I guess I was fortunate to have been quit open minded and that was the very source that prompted me to do research on both sides. I soon learned that the bible and everything religious made no sense and dared to argue with my hero Charles Darwin the very man to have come to tell us how we evolved.

 As time went on I found religion getting more and more ridiculous to me and I found myself quickly drawn to be more agnostic. Then I realized something, something almost revolutionary that every religious written website simply ignored various facts. When I started to find my own holes in religion I relished how ridiculous it all was and myself to now be an Atheist.

One of my favorite website which simply read my mind was "50 reasons god is imaginary" http://godisimaginary.com/ .

I now faced an whole year since about March full of prayer and many other religious things which I had no interested in but I still respected it at respectfully pretended to pray.

Tomorrow I embark on my last year of high school and it will be a long one as not only an atheist but also as I am the exact opposite of any teenager.

I enjoy writing this because it's the only way I can say what I want because here there is no one willing to listen to my story.

My History ... Part 1


This must be my favorite  creation story and it certainly makes more sense than the Jesus one. Well since this is my first post ever please bear with me. I should probably tell you more about myself. Firstly I'm still a teen in high school and more specifically I'm 17, I live in a country were being christian is the norm and everybody else at least has a religion. Being an atheist is practically unheard of and everybody just accepts you believe in a big guy in the sky.


 So I have been an atheist for a year, the only one knowing being my mom and at first she didn't quite get it. She told me very concerned that she doesn't want me to be a sinner and praise the devil to which I replied " I can't be a sinner, because I don't believe in him either". My mom never confronted me directly again but would rather add small things to her conversation like ghosts are proof there must be a god. I must say my mom has started to doubt herself and now replaces the "must" with "if". My sister on the other hand is quite a bit younger than me and it makes it a bit awkward when she starts talking about heaven, angels and god. She off course got enlightened with all of this from her school. I don't think there is a non-religious school in the whole country.


 I, myself have been in religious schools my whole life and they brainwashed, I mean learned me all about religion and wonderful god. I always found the story quite peculiar and could never quite get to it make sense to me. When I was little my parents did not educate me about god and we never went to church. They would sometimes talk about it, but I didn't really care much. When I started school in 2001 everything changed to be god included. The morning would start with scripture reading and prayer and then when we had assembly once a week we would do the same but then they would explain it in only a way that could make it sound good, at the end we would sing multiple Christan songs and then the day would resume. Now we skip to 2004, I was doing well in school and started my 4th year in my new school. This school was definitely a Christan school. The morning would start the same as any other one but now we were blessed with a bible studies class ( Funny enough they never taught us of the erotic content, I wonder what the message is there). At Christmas, Easter and who knows how many stolen holidays they would make us colour and draw pictures of fictional characters.


As soon as I entered my sixth year I had a teacher which didn't believe in the bible, much like my mom. I think that was the closet I ever got to atheism before I enlightened myself. They would always involve god every where they could and would sometimes express the ridiculousness  of multiple gods clearly failing to see the holes in their own. I started to become as christian as possible and for me not much work was needed as I was well behaved. I even thought I heard gods voice in one of the bible classes in my seventh year, OK, I pretended to since everyone else was hearing it, I was talking to myself and I knew it. I thought is was funny when everyone claimed to hear god.


I think I have written enough and will try to come back tomorrow. I will tell you about my high school years next then I will start with what I really want. This is just to show you my background. Any and all suggestions are always welcome. Have an Amazing day.
