beyond religion

beyond religion < joegriffo >
There is a place beyond religion. Beyond doings things to "earn"
points with God. Beyond trying to "pay" off our sins. Beyond trying to
get a "ticket" to heaven.
God wants you to have that, but has so much more for you. More than
just "being good" or avoiding hell. He wants to be your Friend,... more »

...What happens when a fly falls into a coffee cup? The Italian - throws the cup and walks away in a fit of rage. The Frenchman - takes out the fly, and drinks the coffee.

the Decalogue was for WHOM?
|
| |

"others" who were invariably "their enemies."
On page 215 of the Joseph Campbell book, The Power of Myth, Bill... more »

|
| |
There's been a fair amont of talk on the "undeserved respect" that we
supposedly have for religion lately. In the second part of my

Dawkins' examples):
"The second example is where Dawkins is most blatant about his lack of
respect for the right to freedom of religion. In his comments, he... more »

The Foolishness of Trying to Prove Whether God Exists!
|
| |
I am always bothered by the arguments between theists and atheist
about whether god exists. It is completely pointless! Even though I

there are simply logical arguments that undermine the existence of... more »

The Lord's Boot Camp
|
| |
I recently watched a frightening documentary on CBS called "The Lord's
Boot Camp," which is about a bible camp located in Florida for teens.
I was frightened by this boot camp because it is so dogmatic; it takes
the position that Christianity is the only acceptable belief system,
and it strives to impose this belief system on others. I find it... more »

Fuck Mohamed in the ass with a Koran while he sucks Jesus' cock. You can't
get your Muslim censorship here. We respect free speech. Deal with it.

Generally when you want to have something done, you should threaten people
with things they DON'T want to happen. You'd think you, being a Muslim,... more »
