Re: In today's news...
When it rains the water falls on everyone. Both good and evil. Not just the rich or just the poor, but both. If God were to hold the umbrella for you (Or Jesus, like your meme says), then he would also have to hold it for the murderers, the rapists, and the child molester. "Hey God. Why do you hold the umbrella for the child molester? I can not believe in a god who would do that!"
Some people say that anyway, that God holds the umbrella for bad people. Maybe it's Lucifer holding the umbrella...
It's not a ploy for them to take your money.
Religion is like science, power, and many other things. "Science is not good or bad... But it can be used both ways."
Yes. I totally quoted Frankenweenie.
Don't get me wrong there could be something out there that can't be explained, but the talking snakes, 2 people repopulating the earth
Back then they had talking snakes. Today we have talking furbies. Which is more believable?
As for 2 people repopulating the earth: Moses was only concerned with writing about his own lineage and what he knew from before his time was all handed down by storytellers.
Furthermore, Cain, Seth, and the other siblings had to marry someone. I highly doubt that they married their own siblings. Especially Cain since he was an outcast.
and the fact the everything you do is a sin including watching h stuff.
Forgive me if I'm mistaken, but I don't recall ever seeing any commandments like these:
"Thou shalt not draw naked people!"
"Thou especially shall not draw naked people having sex!"
"Thou shalt not lust for fictional characters!"
Really the only thing we have to go by is David and Bathsheba, and it was pretty obvious that he was wrong to lust after someone's wife (not to mention that he got her husband killed by sending him to the frontlines). Things might not have went so badly for him later on in life if he just drew a naked picture of her and kept it in his pocket.
We do have commandments about how we shouldn't make graven images or worship them, but the Catholic Church seems to be all over that. How many times have you seen someone praying to an image of Jesus? To a cross? To an image of Mary? What about all their statues of saints?

I tend to see Atheism whipped out and waved around on a regular basis like it's some sort of giant magic dong. Two words for that. Double standards.
I don't normally like to share my beliefs. I felt like I should make an exception this time though. It really bothers me when all Christians are lumped in with the Catholic Church. That's actually why a lot of pilgrims came to the US, for religious freedom.
Crazy shit has been going down in association with Pokemon Go which was released a few days ago
And of course, there's been a lot of injury reports surrounding the game too.

Someone on Youtube was talking about that Ap. I immediately thought, "Well, there's going to be people playing Pokemon Go while they drive.."
So I guess there will be new slogans, "Don't Pokemon Go and Drive."
I would say there might be new laws for that, but isn't there already a law about not using a phone while you drive?
