Mario Rodgers commented on The God Critic's blog post 'Suffering and The Shroud'"Well Pope Benedict DOES look like Emperor Palpatine. :D
So how do we know if the amount of happiness in the world balances the amount of suffering? Does God get weaker by happiness? Shall we start kill gods by masturbating? LOL."
The God Critic commented on The God Critic's blog post 'Suffering and The Shroud'"I guess by their logic, the more suffering that takes place on earth, the more powerful God becomes. Is it just me or is God sounding more and more like a Sith Lord?"
Mario Rodgers commented on The God Critic's blog post 'Suffering and The Shroud'"The Pope caused self harm as well. There's also a ritual in places like the Philippines were they re-enact the crucifixion."
The God Critic commented on The God Critic's blog post 'Suffering and The Shroud'"I think that it's their (rather clumsy) way of reconciling suffering and a loving, personal god."
Michael R commented on The God Critic's blog post 'Suffering and The Shroud'"Its the same bullshit as Mother Teresa and her "Suffering into Joy". Supposedly, all that suffering is the same as the suffering of Jesus, which is a co-redemption, which is saving the world from worst things. She didn't work with the…"

The God Critic commented on The God Critic's blog post 'A Refutation of The Making of an Atheist: How Immorality Leads to Unbelief'"Apparently, he only uses twelve people as an example to bolster his "broken relationship" argument. Hardly what I would call a serious attempt at a study."
Doug Reardon commented on The God Critic's blog post 'A Refutation of The Making of an Atheist: How Immorality Leads to Unbelief'"I grew up in an era where psychoanalysis was given credence, this thoughtful analysis of the motivators to atheism reeks of the same mindset."
Greg Gorey commented on The God Critic's blog post 'A Refutation of The Making of an Atheist: How Immorality Leads to Unbelief'"If he conducts a double blind study, then he would have something. But this is simply an ad hominem, a slippery slope, and slander.

Mario Rodgers commented on The God Critic's blog post 'A Refutation of The Making of an Atheist: How Immorality Leads to Unbelief'"Not immorality or even immortality. I mean. . . WHO THE HECK ASKED ME IF I WANTED TO EXIST FOR ALL ETERNITY IN ANYBODY'S REALM?!"

- About Me:
- I'm just a regular guy who spent the bulk of his life as a very lazy Catholic. When I finally decided to get serious about my faith, and learn as much as I could, I slowly became convinced that it was all B.S.
I've spent the last year-and-a-half as an atheist and have been trying to educate myself. I recently started a blog to talk about my newly minted disbelief called The God Critic -- www.thegodcritic.com

I consider myself to be a fairly easy-going guy. I try not to bother anyone preferring to live and let live.
But nothing gets my tits in a wringer more than when I hear of someone doing something monstrous because of their stupid religious beliefs.

From Catholic News Service
Pope Benedict spent May 2 by visiting Turin, Italy, where he celebrated an outdoor mass and knelt in silent prayer before the Shroud of Turin, which many Catholics still believe to be the burial cloth of Jesus Christ despite mountains of evidence to the contrary.

If you were previously a believer in The Almighty, did you ever hear him speak to you?
I never did. At least, I don't think I did.
However, I know a few people to whom God did speak, and I was always envious because God always told them what they should do with their lives. He told them who to marry, which house to buy, and which career path to follow.
I remember, when I was trying real hard to be a good…
