According to some religions, not only does the serial killer go to heaven if he "finds jesus", his victim, if they are an unbaptized child, an Atheist, or anyone else who worships any other god will go to hell. It is unfathomable to me how anyone could find any of these gods to be loving or benevolent.

"Religion began when the first scoundrel met the first fool." Voltaire

[Krutchly]

"This is barking mad!" Sums up most religious doctrine.

[itsROMPERS...]

The idea that you can be absolved from your crimes by punishing someone else is the most fundamentally immoral idea imaginable.
If YOU do something wrong, YOU are to blame, and nothing can change that, not even God.

[itsROMPERS...]

Well put: religion developed as a social mechanism out of necessity.
It is now obsolete, and the negative effects are so horrendous it should be abandoned.

'Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by rulers as useful.' — Seneca

Religion is excellent stuff for keeping common people quiet. Religion is what keeps the poor from murdering the rich.” ― Napoleon Bonaparte

Science flies men to the moon. Religion flies men into buildings.

God: the last refuge of a man with no argument

Shermer is speaking with authority and common sense! love his honesty and critical thinking

[SuperFredAZ]

It's absolutely disgusting that a believer could think that Adolph Hitler would be excused by simply accepting Jesus 1 minute before his death!

[ravishirvaikar]

Very succinctly put. Should be heard by all theists! Not just Christians!
"That which can be asserted without evidence, can be dismissed without evidence."

Imagine trying to explain to your boss when you have done a bad job that you work in mysterious ways

Begging god for forgiveness is just talking to yourself, like all prayer. Lose the Delusion!

[Richard-brv]

It's quite simple. God was created by mankind not the other way around

[yvonaubertin]

i am a perfect living proof that you don't need a god, i raise my two sons outside of religion from young age i explain them what religion is all about and also told them that they can make there on choice, 30 years after my two sons are behaving perfect whit out religion and have a great sense of moral. to me religion is like a virus passes from parents to kids and the worst, in nearly uncurbable.

[TedLJones]

I like Matt Dillahunty's extension of "god sacrificed himself to himself to save us from himself", being (not as a quote, but in spirit, as it were) "so god sacrificed himself to himself to save us from himself, goes to hell, then comes back 3 days later? That's not a sacrifice, it's a crappy weekend!"

Religious People: "LA LA LA LA I CANT HEAR YOU LA LA LA"

[MrAgustos]
