Cast the first stone

More tampering with Jesus from eager bible scribes. I may as well tamper with him too.

"The story of Jesus and the woman taken in adultery is arguably the bestknown story about Jesus in the Bible;
[...]
Despite the brilliance of the story, its captivating quality, and its inherent intrigue, there is one other enormous problem that it poses. As it turns out, it was not originally in the Gospel of John. In fact, it was not originally part of any of the Gospels. It was added by later scribes.
[...] the story is not found in our oldest and best manuscripts of the Gospel of John; 18 its writing style is very different from what we find in the rest of John (including the stories immediately before and after); and it includes a large number of words and phrases that are otherwise alien to the Gospel. The conclusion is unavoidable: this passage was not originally part of the Gospel."

The Gospel of Mark

Sat, 26 Feb 2011 04:28:27 PST

I find it interesting that Mark, the oldest of the gospels originally did not end with an actual resurrection. Just an empty grave, which isn't that implausible. Matthew and Luke both uses a lot of material from Mark(look up synoptic gospels [link] ) but added a resurrection. And later on, Mark is "corrected" so it won't conflict with the other two.

"A second ending is the so-called `Longer Ending' (Mk 16.9-20) which is present in the King James version but lacking in our oldest manuscripts as well as from all Greek manuscripts known to Eusebius and Jerome. It is not attested in Greek manuscripts of the New Testament before the ®fth century. Its earliest attestation is by Irenaeus, and so it probably arose in the mid-second century, or shortly before. It was clearly unknown to Matthew or Luke who both sharply diverge, as we have seen, after Mark. 16.8. Lacking Markan style and content (as well as a smooth juncture between Mk 16.8 and 16.9), it presents us with seventeen non-Markan words, or words used in a non-Markan sense. By common consent, it is either an artificial, composite summary of the resurrection traditions in the other Gospels, designed presumably to bring Mark into line with them (W. Marxsen), or a catechetical summary of post-resurrection appearances drawing on some independent elements of the tradition (B. H. Streeter, C. E. B. Cranfield, R. H. Fuller)."

If you hate God

Thu, 10 Feb 2011 09:37:30 PST

Just something I wanted to say.
You can't hate something you don't think exist. If you hate a god, then by definition you believe that this god exists and you are then a theist.

God is dead

Wed, 26 Jan 2011 01:46:42 PST

You can't be dead if you didn't exist in the first place - but the phrase has a nice ring to it.

Martha Louises vaapenskjold

In Norway we have a princess who claims to be able to talk to horses, angels and the dead. Her name is Märtha Louise. Together with a companion she runs a school called Astarte Education where you can learn to hook up with the dead and what not.
I figured she could need a coat of arms, so I modified our national coat of arms to suit her capabilities.

Hopefully, one day Norway will be a republic.

As every atheist knows, it can often be an exasperating task to explain that atheism is not a religion, and well, I guess this picture won't be of any help.

World Atheism

Tue, 19 Oct 2010 03:05:58 PDT

Though quite unrealistic at present I like the sound of "World Atheism".

All actual news items from October 2010, picked from National Secular Society's newsfeed "What The Papers Say": [link] . Well, except the last one which is a paraphrase of something witten here: [link]

I am as you might understand, fed up with the old "fundamentalists on both sides" slogan which tries to equal Dawkins & co with any AK47 toting terrorist.

Religion opium of the people

Fri, 08 Oct 2010 03:36:45 PDT

Religion is the opium of the people. [link]

I'm not a fan of Marx, but this is a slogan you can't beat. I am a fan of propaganda though, and the slogan fits perfectly to a blunt and, to be fair, a slightly vicious poster.

I have dabbled in fonts before, and this one I made tonight under the influence of Springbank, but I hope to return with a more proper font when I get my scanner in place.

I completely forgot silly things like commas and exclamation marks that no-one ever uses anyway.
