M.I.A. [Missing in Atheism]
So you may have noticed that I've been off the grid for awhile.  Everything is fine, just busy with work and other time consuming crap. 
And I might be quiet again soon -- but just for a short while.

My website hosting provider is pulling the plug on the piece of crap site editor that I've been using for the past 5 years, so as of August 1 I will no longer be able to update the site using the old application.  (I think Jesus had a hand in this.  He can be such an a-hole sometimes.)

At any rate, I'm working to get the site rebuilt as a WordPress blog as quick as possible.  (Yes, I'll still be using the same web address.)  I'm targeting early to mid-September for completion.

Send me an email if you'd like to be notified when the new site is up.

Ya just gotta love them Corinthians.

Godless Michelle from Georgia took the time to proof-read this gal's ass.  She writes...

"Being the bitchy grammarian that I am, I couldn't help but laugh at the scripture tramp stamp picture.  Did she pay extra for that apostrophe in the "it's" that shouldn't be there?  Gotta love stupid people."

Sermon #3: Good Reasons to Believe in God  MP3  [7:36]

Bunk & Boobs
Meet Shelley Lubben, former stripper, porn star, prostitute.  Now she's a Christian crusader and hypocrite.

gb-08 shelley bible.jpg

You see, Shelley (shown left) believes that porn objectifies women as sex objects, yet she has no problem objectifying herself as one with her MAMMOTH FAKE BOOBS (which she's still more than happy to show off with her less than modest and not so godly tank tops).  Sorry cupcake, but you can't have it both ways.  Lose the chest balloons or shut your pie hole.  And I'd rather you shut up.  (I'm a leg man anyway.)

On a related note, how intellectually dishonest must one be to say that porn objectifies women (singling out women) as sex objects without recognizing that it objectifies men as well?  And equally.  I mean, what do you think those men are doing in those videos?  Making potpourri?  Um, and what about gay porn?  They're ALL men, you moron.  There's not a single vagina in sight.  For the love of sod, find a logical argument please.

Personally, I don't think that porn "objectifies" anyone one.  Objectification is something that an offended party (such as Shelley) infers.  How about boxing?  Does the sport "objectify" big, dumb, brawling meatheads?  No.  But as for porn, it either objectifies all involved or it objectifies no one.  And whether the participants entered the industry voluntarily or whether they were tricked or seduced or whatever (as Ms. Fakebags loves to argue) is wholly irrelevant.  While I agree wholeheartedly that porn does seem to lure in troubled young girls, Shelley's crusade is just an obfuscating excuse for not accepting personal accountability for what she chose to do in life.  Lubben is intellectually damaged goods looking to wash her guilt [not sins] clean by saving others from her own mistakes that she just can't get past.

If you're a member of Facebook, add her as a friend.  Trust me, her wall postings are pure entertainment.  Her zombie-like incantations and photo comments are a spectacle to behold.  If you keep repeating the same mantra over and over again, it eventually becomes your truth and reality.

To illustrate the depths of poor Shelley's delusion, on her website you'll find a picture of her posed in front of a moving train.  This one particular shot captured an American flag on the rail car directly behind her.  Shelley's predictable comment of the photo implies that this is not a coincidence, and that god had a hand in this most miraculous sign of his involvement in her life.  But Shelley is too mind-numbingly stupid to realize that a country flag is not a holy symbol.  And even if it were, why would an American flag be a sign of divine intervention?  Would she see divinity in the flag of Latvia?  I'm sure she'll likely claim that the connection is found in her trip to Washington DC.  Well Shelley, there's a Latvian embassy in DC too.  I'm afraid that all you're doing is seeing what you want to see.

And in her comment Shelley asks, "What are the odds?"

Well, let's see.  There are at least 300 photos posted on your site, and no photo reveals any clear and patent sign of divine intervention.  Well, Shell, I'd say that given your very subjective and open-ended interpretation of god's involvement in your photo shoots, I'd say that the odds are about 1-in-300.  Not terribly impressive, statistically-speaking.

Of course I can see what I want too.  Here is Shelley with a halo above her head.  And other with devil horns.  And here you can see quiet clearly that god wants Shelley to help porn, not destroy it.  And all three sightings begin with the letter H.  Just like HELL.  Well slap my ass and call me Malachi!  What are the odds?

Like all else that fuels Shelley's delusion, the poor gal manufactures in her mind what is most comforting and that validates what she wants so desperately to be true.  It's her confirmation bias in play.  This is what we call "counting the hits and ignoring the misses."  Read about it here.

Subject: Your website...

Heya' Mr. B!

Found your website one night when I was just zinging about the web using search terms like: "christian", "idiocy" and "bullshit". I like it.  It's given me hours of amusement.

I will say upfront that I dislike christianity (Yeah, I too refuse to capitalize certain words and have been asked, rather belligerently at times, whether this is intentional.  It sure in the hell is.)  I am more...forgiving of some of the other religions.  Not that I necessarily agree with them, but I am more willing to adopt a live-and-let-live attitude toward those who are willing to do me the same favor.  [c]hristianity draws my ire in particular.  It is one of those systems of belief that it's followers feel they have every right to use as a weapon in any way that they see fit.  Further, because they are automatically "forgiven" for their "sins", most of them feel entitled to break every precept that they claim to hold dear even while they threaten others with the dire consequences of doing so.  That and the total ignorance of that which they profess to live by--most of the illiterate cretins have never even read the bible, know nothing about what the book actually contains, and then have the nerve to admit as much even while claiming that it is what legitimizes their sorry ass faith ("Maybe I haven't read the bible, but I know I am saved anyway because the bible promises me that I am and the bible is god's word.  I know this is true because it says so in the bible!").  Whatever can be said about religion in general, this is something that in my experience is much more true of christianity than it is of other belief systems. Be that as it may, you have a very entertaining website.

Now, in your piece on asshole Patrick Tolle you happened to mention that if anyone wanted to redesign your website pro-bono for you to drop you an e-mail.  I'm not entirely sure if you were joking, but in any case if you would be interested in discussing that with someone, my boyfriend Ben would be more than happy to talk to you.  He has experience in web design, and he is often willing to take on projects like this just for the pure enjoyment of doing so.  I've shared things from your website with him and he has enjoyed them very much.

If you feel like it, you can reply either to me or you can contact Ben directly at [withheld].

Either way, thanks a lot for the entertainment.

Peace!

When Bible Colleges Go Oopsies!
When the Citadel of Delusion known as Liberty University featured this May 2010 article on its graduation traditions, their powers that be failed to notice the appalling gaffe in the featured photo.  Fortunately for you, I snagged a copy of the original article before someone brought this manifestation of a quality Christian education to their (semi-lucid) attention.
