No religious system can be founded otherwise than upon the nature of God and man, and upon the relationship, they bear to each other. However, in order to judge the reality of these relationships, we must have some idea of the Divine nature. However, everybody tells us that the essence of God is incomprehensible to… Continue reading

We are not born religious or deistical.
All religious principles base their ideas on a ‘God’ which does not act upon any human senses. The idea is convenient because no man can comprehend such a being. All our ideas are but pictures of objects which strike us. What can the idea of God represent to us when it is an idea without… Continue reading
What is theology?
Theology is the science whose object is only incomprehensible things. Unlike all other science fields, it occupies itself with things that cannot be seen or touched. Theology must be called “the kingdom of darkness.” In this kingdom, everyone obeys laws opposed to those which men acknowledge the world they inhabit. In this marvellous region, light… Continue reading
Religion keeps illusions alive
Sometimes people don’t want to hear the truth because they don’t want their illusions destroyed. That’s ok if you are an adult. You are free to choose, but you are not free from the consequence of your choice. Children don’t understand the consequences of their decisions. Just as children believe in Father Christmas and the Easter bunny, they blindingly believe in Jesus. They also believe in eternal hell if they don’t believe in him. Father Christmas and the Easter bunny do not have these threats weaved in as part of the philosophy, so they lose interest and realise it’s not true. Religion has the fear factor for which children have no answer, and they are too scared to say no.
Re-evaluate your morals
Imagine a chicken farm or broiler farm. Replace each chicken with a puppy. It does not look good does it. Broiler and poultry farming is a crime against innocent animals. The owner is not a farmer, he’s a brutal sadistic torturer and narcist. I can only imagine that in 1000 years’ time this will be illegal. Let’s hope. I don’t see it happening in the near future. Big companies are making too much money without environmental consequences.
Do Eskimos go to hell?
You can only go to hell if you know God. It’s one of the most significant flaws in religion. The same applies to babies and children. At what age do children understand the concept of God, faith and going to hell for your or their sins? If not knowing means automatic entrance to the Pearly Gates, why would missionaries feel the urge to crush that privilege? Is it just better not to ever know?
You cannot vote as you believe
“Obviously I don’t vote as I believe democracy is a pointless spectacle where we choose between two indistinguishable political parties, neither of hwom represent the people but the interest of the powerfull business elites that run the world”

Seeking a positive in social media
I wonder if there is anything positive that comes out of using social media. What benefit do we get browsing mindlessly through an insane amount of unimportant posts from people we never engage with physically. On many levels, social media has lifted the gossip channel to a higher level. We have an insatiable curiosity about… Continue reading
Just say “Hi!”, God, and I’m in.
If God is so great and mighty, why doesn’t he say ‘hi’? Does this small emission from the whole faith movement not bother one believer? Is that what is called blind faith, follow blindingly without any proof. So may I ask why not follow The Flying Spaghetti Monster instead.
The Myth of the Latest and why the second-best is best
We are not driven by what is positive in our lives. Our action comes from what is negative. We are negative driven. Which I think is sad, but that is how society has evolved. If we all strive for what is positive, the world would be a completely different place. For one, there would be no wars.
