Religion can be looked in two ways:
#1 God is real and you are really damning your soul to eternal hell by going against God's rules
#2 Religion is set of rules by ancient people based on best practices of good life. You are fucking up your life by going against it. Even with techological advances humans are still same inside.
1: there's no more evidence for the existence of any of the major deities than there is for the flying spaghetti monster. When will
you accept the FSM as your personal saviour and avoid eternal damnation?
2: ah yes, those ancient and best practices such as "don't eat shrimp", where would be we without those absolute gems
Let's not forget some more classics from the Bible:
- if you sin without knowing, kill a ram 'without defect and of the proper value in silver, according to the sanctuary shekel' as a 'guilt offering'. Animal sacrifice: absolving idiots of their sins since the dawn of time!
- cut off parts of your dick!
- kill your son if the voices in your head tell you to! ( A certified hood classic)
- don't eat pigs!
- don't have long hair otherwise you're a disgrace! (Some other religions say you may
not cut your hair - they're obsessed!)
- don't wear clothes made from two different materials!
- I had to quote this one it's so farcical: "Do not cut the hair at the sides of your head or clip off the edges of your beard"
- menstrual blood is scary fucking shit, anyone who touches it is tainted. Oh and anything the woman sits on is tainted as well - no sniffing those seats you fucking perverts!
- buy slaves and treat them like property!
- guys with crushed balls / severed dicks are not welcome in church!
