Atheist on the Blog - Nick Gisburne

1.	Here is an irrelevant quote by Stephen Jay Gould that proves that evolution is wrong.
2.	[Atheist: Uhhh, that quote is a bit out of context. Actually, if you read the whole page from which the quote is taken, you'll see that-]
3.	Since evolution is wrong, creationism is true.
4.	Therefore, God exists.

Consider this
Religion devalues critical thinking except when it comes to being creative about justifying belief in ridiculous fairy tales.

Atheist on the Blog

The more I look at religion, the more I dislike it and what it does to the world and its people. This blog will help you understand why religion is something you shouldn't accept as a good thing in our lives. Above all, don't respect religious beliefs when their practitioners refuse to respect you.

Blasphemy! Songs 6-10

7 September 2008

Short extracts from five more of the songs in my forthcoming book, Blasphemy! The Musical. Today...

They'll Say Anything
I'd Do Anything (Oliver!)

They'll say anything
To please God, anything
And all things Biblical are true
They're taught that
Satan's everywhere
There's no good anywhere
We're evil sinners through and through

God Is Never There
Walking In The Air (The Snowman)

Your God is never there
You pray but you don't wonder why
He cannot say hello
There's no-one to reply
...
Now your mind cannot grow
Prayers make it sleep
Understanding has its price
Faith is cheap

Their Religion Is Insane
There Is Nothin' Like A Dame (South Pacific)

Their religion is insane
Foolish and absurd
File the Bible under 'lame'
Christianity's quite insane

It's so easy to explain
In a single word
Read the Bible and proclaim
That its followers are insane

So You Wanna Be A Baptist
So You Wanna Be A Boxer (Bugsy Malone)

So you wanna be a Baptist
We're a big success
Any laws God didn't issue
We will suppress

If you drink or you bet
Turn around you're a threat
We don't need you
Smokin' weed, sellin' dope
If you don't think the Pope's
Gonna lead you
Into Satan's great pit
Bible says you ain't fit

Praying For The World To End
Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend (Gentlemen Prefer Blondes)

The rumours of war
Will be so instrumental
When praying for the world to end
The past had far more
But that's coincidental
Now they take delight
The end's in sight, the timing's right

Famines grow and we all know
This is far from a new global trend
But they think the food link
Ties up with God's time sync
Praying for the world to end

More tomorrow!
