In the beginning, the elohim created skies
and earth.
Welcome back. Normally, I do not write on the Bible Sabbath
Day.
It's nice to take a day off, but something has been jangling
inside my head since I have been writing about Freddy Nietzsche.
The subtitle of my blog is "Christianity for the Next 1000
years."
I truly believe that Christians must accept the natural life we
live if we want our faith to avoid going the way of Zeus and his gang.
Our message will mean nothing if it sounds ignorant and stupid.
I do not write that in a mean way. I am writing about how
our faith is perceived, for the world needs us to truly be Christians and not
these blood drenched, hate filled blasphemers.
The only way the world of men and women should judge us is by our
love for them and one another.
Yet, they are being told that the only way they can share in our
love is to believe ancient superstitions such as:
·
The
world is six thousand years old…plus the few decades since fundamentalists
began making this claim.
·
All
organisms appeared in their present forms by the word of a sky god.
·
Adam
and Eve birthed all the people on earth, or they had help from their children
minus one.
·
People
and dinosaurs co-existed. People were
vegetarians. Luckily, the dinosaurs were
too.
·
Sky
people descended to earth and had sex with human women. Gay men, black people, and gay black men were
born. Carnivorous dinosaurs may have
been born too.
·
A
flood drowned everyone and everything except eight people on a boat and two (or
seven?) of every kind of animal.
·
Noah,
his wife, three sons, and their wives account for all the people on earth.
·
One
of Noah’s sons, ironically named Ham, was cursed by Noah so gay men, black
people, and gay black men started up again—this time without the carnivorous
dinosaurs.
·
Organisms
preserved on the boat account for all life on earth today.
· Fundamentalist Christians will suddenly be
kidnapped into the sky, any second now, by a sky god.
·
The
sky god's son will return to earth as a conquering Caesar, riding on a horse
with an army of horse bound, pissed off good people and win a military
engagement against an enemy, the Anti-Son of Sky God, armed to the teeth with tanks,
drones, and nukes.
·
The
sky god is our God of love.
·
The
sky god’s son is Jesus, the Prince of Peace, delivering a bloodbath in the
final chapter of earth’s existence so Jesus will govern a new planet as a
benevolent dictator under a new sky.
·
All
who are saved, and whose relatives perished in the bloodbath, are exultant with
nary a feeling of remorse.
·
Everyone
also rejoices that their relatives and loved ones will join other hardheaded
infidels inside their benevolent dictator’s concentration camps built within a
lake of fire.
·
A
sacred anthology of 66 books contains no errors. Not one.
·
Places
where the sacred anthology says the earth does not move and stars are lights in
the sky are only apparent errors.
·
Apparent
errors are not errors, apparently.
·
A
literal interpretation of that sacred anthology may contain a few errors, and
that’s a mighty big maybe with very few errors…no more than three.
·
...and
so on and so forth...
But seriously folks, if no one can participate in the love that
comes from our God of love unless they believe such nonsense, then our faith is
doomed to the pages of Webster’s Dictionary of Popular Superstitions.
So how does Nietzsche liberate Christianity? The answer lies in what I am about to post
next.
Blessings…
