The Naked Truth



     Religion is like going to an entertaining
play and finding out at the after-party that
most of the audience thought what they saw 
on stage was real.

Brevity Is the Soul of Wit



     The Four Gospels are essentially four piles
of gossip, spreading misinformation, contradictions,
botched translations, questionable sources, 
anachronisms, desperate extrapolations, plagiarism,
and disinformation.  The Word of YHWH needs
editing and a rewrite.

Man Has His Desires--As You Like It




     St. Augustine of Hippo was baffled by the
sorrowful mystery of the creation of Eve. 
How weary, stale, and flat all the uses
of a woman seemed to St. Augustine of Hippo.
     Eve?  Eve was dirt to him.  Soil that helped
the seed of the man to make the world populous.
     For a good man's life, Adam would best
be served by a lovely boy, enjoying 
companionship and conversation in a
life shared together in a noble-ending love.
De Genesi ad Litteram IX, v. 9*

In a Fool's Paradise



     If the Lord is your shepherd, you see yourself
as a smelly, timid, exploited animal with a herd
mentally.
     The green pasture of YHWH is a defined, restricted
enclosure, not the wide open spaces of a creature
possessing freewill.
     The rod and staff of YHWH are instruments
of coercion and control.  Surely ignorance and 
fear shall follow you all the days of your life
for his name's sake.  Selah.

The Seven Lively Reasons to Believe in Nothing




      I.   Nothing is absolute.


  II.   Nothing is everywhere.


 III.   Nothing is timeless.


 IV.   Nothing does not have a physical existence. 


   V.  Nothing was not created.  Nothing
         always is, always was, and will
         always remain the same.


  VI.  Nothing is perfect.  No thing can be 
         added to nothing or subtracted from
         nothing to perfect it.


 VII.  Something has dimensions and does
         not last forever.  Nothing is infinite
         and eternal.


     Because mankind knows nothing, mankind
has named nothing--YHWH --which means 
nothing. Selah.  Revelation 22:22
