No kidding man, that is a LOT of punch cards! God would be snapping His fingers for weeks.

Also wrt designing evolutionary processes, He also made sure that sex was a primary motive for competition, rapists, societal shamings, divinely inspired punishments… and nobody wants to talk about this but I’ll bet that Satan has a huuuuge penis to help him win some people over. Maybe even several (penises and people at once).

I never really wanted to control my dreams, but preferred to try to understand or at least learn something from them, believing that they’re graphic representations of my subconscious communicating to my consciousness. Sometimes I’d get insights into feelings or issues that were previously eluding me while awake. I feel like I’m opening my mind to…[Read more]

Yeah I’m not in a hurry to see that, because I’ll bet we’re already on the same page. I tend to switch between Amazon Prime Video and Netflix, and The Family is at the top of my list when I switch.

The thing is, I think both religious authoritarians and political authoritarians usually choose to sleep in the same bed. It makes sense for atheists…[Read more]
