I wouldn't be in a place of worship due to it.

Why are you atheists so wrong all the time. Stop assuming. At least try and convince us you are the more intelligent beings. Us god types are gullible so we shouldn't find it hard believing you.
Who says we're wrong? apart from you religious types?

At least we have some sort of evidence to back up our beliefs from Scientists, Bioligists, Fossils etc etc, what evidence do you have of yours and please don't mention that book again as it's hardly credible.

We have scientists, biologists, fossils. Pretty much the same as you guys. Furthermore you guys are not the authority on credibility either. Although you'd like to think you are. Much of the world laughs at your attempts of ridicule and see right through them.

There are two general differences in layman lingo:

1. You (not you personally, but Muslims in general) are multiplying, and Christians are decreasing in number with too many Christians converting to atheism. No wonder the fistful number of Christians are threatened by you (Islam, I mean).

2. Remaining Christians are historically tactful, whereas Muslims don't know jackshirt about tact.

Now you can see why you and them have different bandwagons, hm?
1. I can understand the nutters and mullahs bit why should they be threatenened.

2. We know lots about tact, well we used to

Really, where is your evidence of God then? which fossils do you have I wouldent' mind seeing them do you have any links?

Because we don't recognise 'your' God its now being classed as ridicule?

Why should there be evidence of the Christian God?

If you rearrange the letters in the words Faith and Religion, you can make "Microwave."

No, don't test it or question it, just believe me.

There shouldn't be, you're right.

Anyway, I got given a leaflet by a Johoba's the other day. The image of Jesus was controversial I thought. I mean, Jesus looked so ripped with no shirt on and full six pack (burger biceps included) that it looked a bit sexual tbh. I think it's wrong, and they shouldn't depict God's Son like that.

Yes, I agree. But fancy Johobas putting half-nakkid Jesus with Diet Coke body on top of their leaflet. Why attract such attention to someone who's holier they thou??

I reckon they are marketing this sort of Jesus to recruit desperate ladies and gay men, which is quite inclusive of them, to be fair. But then again, it's mental perversion technique, which is more human and less divine. Frankly, I didn't need to see it, as I'm perfectly fine with Mr. T. In less or no clothes on. I don't need Jesus doing striptease for me, thanks.

If he were, our Scoobynet male massive would burn is such jealousy, he was so super fit on the leaflet, Lisa. However, he shouldn't have been depicted like that for the chaste figure he is.

Also, I'm p!ssed off with the Johoba's because they've nicked my idea for our business to publish that magazine with half-nakkid guys for desperate and naive female market. If Jesus is really that fit and easy to do such poses, I'd recruit him. He's ageless for being divine, so he should fit our criteria. His pictures should sell well. You and I will mint some serious money, then.

Baphomet is smart.

This is my friend, the Cosmic Dancer >



He's looking a bit girly there ^, not so ripped. I told him not to watch Leonardo Decaprio's films, but he wouldn't budge! Interesting personality, though. Not Leonardo, my Cosmic Dancer, I mean.

I think we'd be ok. Most people don't like opening the doors to them, and they don't all post their leaflets, so the audience will probably be quite small. On the other hand we will have our pervy mags all over the shelves of supermarkets, newsagents etc. so we should be fine

Scientists are notorious specialists in generating theories about anything.

They don't know how it all started any more than anyone else!

But at least they admit they are wrong when proved so! Religious types struggle with that concept.....
