No, too many people go into ‘Frankenstein’ mode when technology replaces them.

Baba & Bill babbled on, and on and on about “heaven.” Baba says it is “the most important” special she has ever done (she must have had somebody try to forclose on one of her mansions). Anyway, Bill & Baba babbled on about sex-in-heaven.

The consensus is that Moslems get sex in the afterlife and Christians get to sit at the knee of their God and worship him.

Could I be wrong about this? I heard it- I saw it. Go through the logic with me, here – Christians get to sit at the knee of their God and worship Him (doesn’t this sound needlessly gay or teenaged girl adoration-ish?) and Moslems get 72 virgins….

Aside from the fact that virgins lack a lot of experience and I don’t want to spend eternity trying to teach them how to get themselves and me off…..doesn’t the deal seem a little perverterd?

I mentioned that Sufi poetry has some rather interesting erotica.

Hmm, heaven with or without sex?

Reminds me of the Atheist who had to give it up – nobody to talk to while getting a BJ.

Could television possibly find anything worse? I’d much rather watch the Yule-log burning for 4 hours on TV than have Baba go on and on and on about being and nothingness*. *with apoligies to Soren Kierkegaard.

1) At some point this ectoplasmic entity got bored. It was all alone in this nothingness and at some point decided not to be alone anymore.

2) It then, from all this nothingness, conjured up Angles, planets, galaxies counted in the billions containing an uncountable number of stars.

3) In the corner of one arm or one very average galaxie no where near the center of this universe it puts this little blue marble.

4) It then conjures up people and demands that these two get on their knees and worship it so that THEY can be happy and saved.

I don’t know about you folks but this doesn’t sound like any God that I would care to worship. Why in the world would it need US to worship it? Why wouldn’t it make it’s presense known, like once a century letting it “face” be seen floating in the sky? Everyone would believe then!

These stories sound more like someone defining a malevolent king or a rather ego maniacal father instead of an all powerful being capable of making all of this possible simply by wishing it so.

Total crap!

If it weren't for email/blog alerts I would miss most of the air time of a skeptic/atheist speaker because it doesn't seem like MSM announces these speakers.
