A "Designed" Brain?


The problem with the theist's comments is that he already assumed that the brain was "designed" to think. He just can't imagine how the brain could have the ability to think if the brain just came from some "random process of evolution." That’s why he was asking, "If the brain wasn't designed to think and it just came out from natural process, how can you trust your thought?"

"Gap Filler"

 


OK, so I got another comment from a Christian who wanted to shove his god right through my a**.

I don't even know where this comment came from. It was too far from the issue. Maybe he just got so pissed off with me. Anyways, since I really don't have enough time to type an answer to his comment at that time, I just stated (in a question form) that this is a "god of the gaps?" Instead of getting a rebuttal, the guy tried to make a slur, saying that I'm the filler. Too lame. 

Enough of the guy and let's talk about the comment.

Objective Morality


First of all, I still don't get the "justice" part on killing babies, the elderly, and livestock.

Anyways, there were talks about objective vs. subjective morality when I saw 1 Samuel 15:2–3 in the Bible so I asked a question:

"If the killing was commanded by god, will it make killing good?"

Satanism Again?


So what's with Satanism and atheism nga ba? I've noticed that a lot of god-believers seems to connect atheism with Satanism. Maybe because they think that Satanism is all about being against god. They think that if you don't believe in their god, then you're against their god. This implies that they don't know what atheism and Satanism is all about.

First of all, there's nothing in the Christian holy book that says Satan and his devils doesn't believed in a god. In fact, according to the General Epistle of James, the devils also believe, and trembles. (James 2:19) Ancient Israel can't imagine someone who doesn't believe their god - obviously, ancient Hebrews aren't that philosophical compare to the ancient Greeks.

When we talk about Satanism, what kind of Satanism are they trying to connect? The Church of Satan that was established in 1969 by circus artist Anton Szandor LaVey? Michael Aquino's Temple of Set, or is it DeGrimston's Process Church? Most of these churches are into theatrics and are know to be symbolic - Satan is just a symbol for indulgence. I really don't know what these people really believed but LaVey's Satanism is more of a parody against the hypocrisy of the Christian evangelicalism in the 70's.

Just like other religions, there maybe atheists who are members of these Satan churches, the same as atheists who are members of Buddhism, Unitarian Universalism, Christian atheism, and even a Jedi.

So saying that "EVERY ATHEISTS ARE SATANISTS" is quite ridiculous.

Until next time.
