Opposable Thumbs
Opposable thumbs, to us, are
not the short thick first digits at the end of the front limbs
of the human animal which are modified for grabbing.
They are people - people who
exhibit a tenacious veracity in defending the faith of their
atheism/evolutionism.
They oppose the Christian/creation
world view and leave their indelible imprint on us.
They leave with us a thumbnail
sketch of where they are coming from in their thinking.
We here at the Institute for
the study of Atheianity appreciate their pressing need to pin
us down on issues. We respect that.
And we would like to honor an
Opposable Thumb here . . .
This month's Opposable Thumb is:
"D.J."
Editors Note: D.J.'s colorful language
has been edited. This is noted by the words in [brackets]. We
can only hope that you are too innocent to figure out what the
actual words were. If not, shame on you!
Hi there Christian
[flocks]!!! So you like to make
fun of Athiesm hu. Well you [fickeled]
with the wrong athiest. How dare u mock athiesm. You know that Darwin
fish [spit] your site is showing ..... well you know what ......
[Flock] you ..... b\c GOD IS not real and you need to except
that.
Yoru poor
christian people need to stop praying to somthing
that isnt there.
Its like a kid waiting for santa claus. And for both causes.....
there not real. I cant grasp the thought of how you people continue
to believe such popy cock [spit].
There is more
prof
of god not being real than him being the supreme being of the universe.
Everything has a technological
explenation....
its just that somethings cant be solved now. Just b\c you dont
understand how something happens doesnt mean u should just say
that "GOD" is the reason of y it happened.
Besides, acording
to what ive heard from christians, god doesnt have control of
our lives, he just makes us and gives us life, supposivly the
devil takes o! ver from there. So all the good things that happen
arent from god, its from coincidence.
So with this
i leave you with the lyrics of Nine Inch Nail's song heresy -
GOD IS DEAD
AND NO ONE CARES
IF THERE IS A HELL
ILL SEE U THERE
Sincerely, D. J.
The Biggest Athiest in the US [monkey fathers]
Hey D.J.,
This is Frank here. You need
to cool down buddy. I applaud your entheusiasm, but your emotions
are getting the best of you. For instance...
Oh wait, Miko wants to say something...
Hey D! This is Miko. Don't listen
to Frank. Let your primal urges take over - it's the natural
thing to do. I don't know why you skins* try and supress these
functional urges. (*Editor's note: "skins" is Miko's
new derogatory term for humans which used to be "hairless
freaks"). Why I can give you countless examples throughout
natural history when...
Okay, that's enough Miko. This
is Frank again. That's exactly the reason why the lower primates
haven't evolved any further - they don't think things through.
As I was saying, don't let your
emotions take over because it clouds your brain's ability process
thoughts rationally. For instance, don't hate the fundies. They
are products of their brain chemicals coupled with their own
personal experiences just as you are. They are not evil. In fact,
evolution evolved them a special part of the brain which religion
was born out of many moons ago.
And you gotta hand it to 'em,
they figured out ways to get people to voluntarily submit control
of their lives as well as go out and convert new recruits which
helped them dominate the earth for as many moons. But this is
exactly why we need to think clearly when strategizing to bring
them down.
In this new age of survival of
the fittest it's going to take mental fitness to figure out ways
to accomplish this. We need to be thinking about atheist churches,
atheist charities, atheist hospitals, atheist rituals, Sunday
morning atheism TV, etc.
We're going to have to figure
out things to offer as both positive and negative incentives
(such as an atheist version of heaven and hell - whatever that
could be) to get people to voluntarily leave "the church"
and voluntarily submit control over to us. But you can't do that
with a scorched temper.
For example, the lyrics you submitted
to the Editor in Chief. It appears they were written by someone
who was more emotional rather than rational which only hurts
our cause. GOD IS DEAD is a term meaning that God has been proven
to not exist. But if God doesn't exist, then hell won't either
- so it's a fallacy to say "IF THERE IS A HELL...".
And, if there is a hell (which
there isn't) then the fundy wouldn't be there for you to see
him. The fundy would be in heaven. Don't go around claiming "If
there is a hell..." - be confident in the fact that there
isn't one thus eliminating the need for the word "if".
Besides, if there really is a
hell (but there isn't) then God will have to give us a pass because
he didn't give us enough evidence to believe that it exists in
the first place. He will recognize that it would be his fault
and we would be sure to point that out.
So count to ten, take a deep
breath, and/or eat some chocolate. Whatever it takes to lower
your adrenalin, do it. Let's clear our minds and come up with
a well thought out plan to become more fit so we can take control
from the fundies.
My brain can't wait to review
your brain's lucid thoughts.
Your brother in Chance,
Frank B. Finite's Brain
(a chance evolutionary byproduct since the accidental dawning
of time, space, and matter)
Editor's Note:
D.J. felt the urge to send the same letter to us twice. The following
was our response...

D.J., as
an opposable thumb, you are...
A-OK!
