My daughter doesn’t do religion but, for some reason, she was given the Holy Communion book at school. I just saw this inside, haha! Best of luck with that.
Wow, the cynicism is strong in this parent. You presumably have the same feelings about Santa?haha?
Don Pidgeoni
Santa sends letters AND gives presents. What does God do?
Drogg
God stands back and influences the most horrific acts of humanity, while punishing you for being created in his image but not fitting into the exact type of person he wants as a follower.
Don Pidgeoni
Tbf, God doesn’t do that because he’s not real. God’s followers do all those things.
Joe the Lion
He made his own mother preggers
Drogg
In his name. As a result of his teachings and his word magically written down by some dude in a cave, Because people are gullible.
gallantman
In fact, God sent his only son to suffer and die for YOUR sins.
That said, he is God, so he could make another son any time he feels like it.
Drogg
Or recycle the old one its better for the environment.
Don Pidgeoni
There are no sins on my high horse thank you very much
Starina

Hopefully he’ll make a better one next time…. Certainly one not prone to having have the planet and the people on it ruined in his name….. or should I say(in my best pious type) ‘HIS’….

@ Starina – can’t believe I missed that…..

I think that’s Olly Murs you’re thinking of Drogg….
Drogg
He has a lot to answer for that Murs chap like all of the above and his influence in getting people to think skinny jeans are cool.

I would probably call myself Atheist. While I’m open the a deity there’s certainly no evidence for one or any reason one should exist and religion as a whole is fascinating but self contradictory.
That all said, I do have a big issue with people who say things like this, or “How could a god exist with all the bad things and evil in the world”. The fact there’s bad things in the world doesn’t preclude the existence of a god, just shows that god to be a selfish, egomaniacal, sadistic c**t.

He shoots, he scores. Anyone?

There’s a lot more emprical evidence for Santa than there is for God.

God always loves us… really?
Exodus 20:5 – I the LORD your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and the fourth generation of those who hate me,
Yep, I will visit the iniquities of the father on innocent children. sounds like real love to me!

Jeez, you all a very narrow view around the concept of God. Shocked I am.
donkey_kong
such smugness , no wonder atheists are annoying.
more annoying than pious folk.
jeremy kyle
And the annoying thing about being an atheist is you’re lumped in with everyone based on a belief you don’t share.
Ugh, so true. I don’t assume all Catholics are homophobes but somehow if you’re an aetheist you must love Dawkins and think religious people are idiots. Dawkins is a dick and, while I don’t get why people have religion, I don’t think it’s because they’re stupid.

Spoken like a true theologian DK. Your views make the world a more something place. It’ll come to me soon.

But God did send you a letter. A little letter we like to call THE BIBLE. The greatest letter in the history of creation, the only letter you will ever need, and God addressed it directly to YOU, with the church as his post-box and the priest as his postman and the BLOOD OF CHRIST as the stamp, yes, he stamped that letter WITH HIS OWN HOLY BLOOD so that it could be carried down the ages past the floods of hate and the fires of heresy and the snapping dogs of atheism to be delivered to your HANDS and your HEART! So sit down, open the letter. Read what God has written to you. Start a correspondence with the Holy Spirit. Let Jesus be your pen-pal. And remember. When you pick up a pen to reply to God with a letter of your own, mark the envelope ‘Return To Sender.’ Because your heart is God’s address.
jeremy kyle
God sounds like a feckin’ squatter.

my sarcasm-o-meter is going crazy right now

Very good writin’

That post is a porduct of indoctrination as much as any Catholic teaching could be.
True
Teaching someone to question doctrine is not the same as being taught that doctrine, surely.
Little Chloe is definitely going to Hell, she didn’t even bother to decorate her letter as requested, unless you count that spit as decoration.
