    Atheist Business with Christian Customers.

    My grandparents lied. It was the 1940s/1950s and they owned a newspaper in the Bible Belt. Grandpa was atheist. Grandma more agnostic. They figured that they wouldn't be able to sell newspapers in the Bible Belt unless they joined a church. So they picked a church to join to sell newspapers...

    Judith, Cheese Latkes and Chanukah

    I've been trying to figure this out and need some feedback, discussion, theories of others. Chanukah used to be a minor holiday based on other texts. And the foods eaten on Chanukah, such as potato latkes, clearly were not the foods of the past. Potatoes only became a European food after...

    Telepathy , telepathy is possible???

    How odd. I thought that the telephone was the most common example of people who think that they might have experienced telepathy. The common story is that someone they know...they start thinking of that person, even if they haven't spoken to that person in awhile. Then suddenly the telephone...

    What is the difference between Atheistic Luciferianism and LaVey Satanism?

    OK. Now I'm confused. I went back over the thread and if I'm reading correctly, the other types of Luciferians are claiming that they don't feel that Atheist Luciferians stack up to their "quality" of what they think Luciferians are? Is that what everyone posting is saying, or have I...

    Paleo-Diet. For? Against?

    They shouldn't. The Paleolithic Diet by definition is a diet BEFORE farmed foods-- a hunter-gatherers diet. So any farmed animal is not to be eaten. Only wild game and wild caught fish. It's also supposed to eliminate all breads, anything with gluten. Only foods that you can gather. (nuts and...

    Greatest Atheistic Lyrics

    I beg to differ. BOTH concepts can be done in one song. Prime example... Depeche Mode's Nothing Sitting target Sitting praying God is saying Nothing Nothing What am I trying to do What am I trying to say I'm not trying to tell you anything You didn't know when you woke up today

    Getting to know you

    I'd be more concerned that Pastor Mike might be the precise thing he accuses others of. There's plenty of pedophile pastors out there. What better way to hide a pastor's pedophilia then by pretending to go vehemently after "pedophiles". Let's accuse thousands of people to which he's never met of...

    What is the difference between Atheistic Luciferianism and LaVey Satanism?

    How odd. He was Aaron Donahue's manager. And last I knew it was Donahue who pretty much came up with the religion Luciferianism.

    10,500b.c. what is so important about this date?

    To the ancient 10,500 BCE has no importance. It's really a group of people who think that the pyramids were constructed in that year who keep pushing the date but their archeology is invalid. And then the movies made the date (which the movie 10,500 BCE is not valid historically). The Edgar...

    A Question from someone part Native-American

    I'm part Choctaw too. It took me awhile digging around to figure out what their beliefs were IN THE PAST, before all the missionaries tried to convert them. I had to go digging around in a Native American library though--reading diaries of missionaries describing Choctaws at the time the first...

    Steven Hawking warns not to talk to aliens

    Well, this is going to sound a little strange. But I always figured that Stephen Hawkins was a victim of a foreign Remote Influencing attack (a form of influential telekinesis), most likely the same man who attacked Bobby Fischer. There is a type of Remote Influencing known as "Stage XI" where a...

    Any other Tellurians here?

    This site looks great. :tigger: Just about every religion on it! I haven't quite figured out how to modify my profile yet though. I keep getting redirected back to the main forums page. :shrug: But I like all the choices of smileys and emotions. They're funny. I had my THC msg board PM set up...

    Which came first: Religion or Agriculture?

    No. Religion came thousands of years before agriculture. Most hunter and gatherer groups were Animistic. They believed in animal spirits which they would turn into religion. Agriculture springs out of the Gaia-Mother Earth groups first. And I still haven't pinpointed how far back they go. Some...

    Eve more guilty than Adam

    Actually--I see it the opposite way. Eve was completely innocent and Adam was guilty. Let's start with the word "apples" in the Adam and Eve story. We all would agree that there's no apple orchards in the Middle East, right? Yet, that's what the Adam and Eve story said. Where did the word apple...
