Today in the world of the internet, combustion engine, fision and fusion based nuclear power plants, space shuttles, satellites, television, radio, chemistry, physics, applied mathematics, brain scannings, psychology and so on - about
half of the civilized world denies basic scientific theories!The latest addition to this Circus was a
Norwegian children school which had several articles where they showed "proof" of that Darwinism was bullshit, Big Bang never happened and basically the fundamentals the "creationists" are basing their believe system on.
I believe that a man's faith is his own and that he is free to believe in what he wants himself. But an elementary school like Moltemyr Barneskole have a divine obligation to teach the latest and most plausible theories science have created to explain the world around us. A 6 year old child doesn't have the mental capacity to separate believes given to him from an authority like a teacher from factual science.
To be fair against Moltemyr one of their main claims is that the Theory of Evolution is often teached as a "fact" and not as a "theory". And that's a place where science probably could be better. Science should be better in telling when a thing is a "theory" and when it's a "fact". However if you take this "factual problem" really far you will sooner or later come to the
Schrödinger's cat Paradox which effectively will put you in a place where nothing is possible to proof. Even the very existance of humans as yourself is impossible to proof. Maybe you're dreaming, right...? Maybe the Universe itself changes shape whenever we observe it and it's real shape is the shape of an egg where our ancestors are looking down upon us from the stars which really is nothing else then "holes" in this egg? The last sentence BTW sums up the "theory of Heavens" from the
Sami people's mythology. However most Samis today recognize that "theory" as nothing but mythology and superstition today. So what the fuck went wrong with Christianity then...?
My theory is that Christianity is so full of bullshit and paradoxes that if they start acknowledging some parts of the most fundamental science their entire believe system collapses...
I mean; "walk on water", "dead for three days", "separated the dead sea", "Lazarus", "incarnation of God on Earth" and so on...? Seriously...?
Most western kids believes in Santa Claus till about the age of 3-7 or something. And Santa Claus is this fat fucking dude with a magic beard flying with his rednosed Rudolf the Reindeer across the sky every 24th of December to give kids gifts. Most children stop believing in Santa Claus at about the age of 3-7 or something, however most Christians keeps on believing in Jesus and the Bible as an exact explanation of the truth their whole adult life...?
I believe in a
Supreme Being, or God if you wish. However my believe in God carries
absolutely no paradox what so fucking ever in regards to science! Ohh yeah, and my God allows me to [*fucking*] swear too - I mean it's nothing but seven letters composed together to form what in my believe system is an adjective to pun my sentences and punchlines ... ;)
I have a theory of where it all went wrong. In roughly 325AD
the Roman Emperor Constantine figured out that there was a lot of Christians in his Empire and that unless he managed to embrace them somehow the Roman Empire which was based on the older beliefe system of Apollon, Zevs and so on would be overrun by Christians and the Roman Empire itself would collapse by internal wars. So Constantine the Great invited all the Christian Bishops at that time to a gathering where they would "define Christianity". However at that time about half the world's Christians believed that Jesus was the very incarnation of God, while the rest saw him only as a Prophet of God's word.
Constantine was in a clinch here, he needed to *UNITE* Christians if he was going to be able to rule them through his ideas of the Vatican and the Pope as its central authority.
Constantine was a pragmatic so he just did a vote and the "Jesus was a Prophet Christians" was slightly outnumbered so therefor they where being chased out of town as heretics, and Jesus was declared to be God himself...
*BIG MISTAKE*...!
First of all this is a pretty extremely huge blasfemic claim! Second of all, all of these other "Christians" (or "non-Christians" as of that day) ran East and later came to found some of the ideas that Islam was built upon. Today there are about 1.3 billion Christians and 1.3 billion Muslims. I'd rather see 2.6 billion people being able to unite towards the same name for God...
The second mistake he did was to found basically every single idea of Jesus on the ancient Paganistic religions of that time. Constantine needed his "non-Christian" Romans (the Paganistic ones) to also embrace the newly formed religion of Christianity to be able to unite his Empire. So he picked the Gospels that was closest to the Paganistic beliefe system. Hence the "dead for three days", "rise to the Heavens", "32 years", "crusified" at the age of 32 and so on...
And in fact the Bible itself is as far away as you can possibly come the "word of God". It's nothing but a bunch of "pickings" by the Bishops and Constantine to "unite" Christianity with the intent of uniting the known world around the Roman Empire. There existed at least a *DOZEN* more Gospels in 325AD then what's in the current version of the Bible...
Let me get this one straight for you in case you wonder...
About 3500 years ago in the Egyptian Kingdom the average Egyptian believed in Horus as an "incarnation of the Sun". Horus was born of a virgin, he was visited by "Three Kings" at birth, he started teaching when he was 10-12 years old, he started his "real career" when he was about 30, he raised dead people, he cured the blind, he was crusified at the age of 32, he died, he was dead for three days and he was resurrected and brought up to Heaven to sit beneath his Father the Allmighty God and Creator of the Universe. Coincidence...? I think not...!
To make things even funnier, about every single Paganistic religion in the world at that time had similar "Jesus stories" like this. Why...?
It's all because of the movement of the sun on the sky in relation to the 4 seasons and the rest of the stars. Constantine needed a "Pragmatic Jesus" which would "function" in regards to also make the *REST* of his Kingdom embrace this new religion. Why do you think we still fucking celebrate Winter Solstice in the western hemisphere as the "birthday of Jesus". Because the Biblical Jesus is nothing but a blasphemic believe in Horus, Zevs, Odin and "put-in-your-own-Sun-Based-Paganistic-religious-figure-here"...
Watch the first 40 minutes of Zeitgeist if you don't believe me, it's a pretty astonoshing piece of information revealed in that movie, especially for Christians...
