QAnon Conspiracy NUTS Taking Over The GOP
The Daily Show Trevor Noah talks about how Brainless QAnon Idiots are taking over the GOP. No surprise since the GOP has been the “Stupid Party” for years.

Trump’s crazy televangelist spiritual advisor Paula White prayed for his reelection and he LOST. Just one example of how faith and prayer is a scam which doesn’t work.
Kenneth Copeland Prophecy: ‘COVID-19 Will Be Over Much Sooner Than You Think’
Televangelist Says COVID-19 Can Be Destroyed With ‘The Wind of God’
IMO the above “Televangelist” acts like a lunatic while pretending he’s destroying Covid-19 with the ‘The Wind of God’. Anyone who believes this type of BS must still believe in Santa Clause and the Tooth Fairy
Description from YouTube; “Televangelist Kenneth Copeland tried to calm his flock down after Donald Trump’s crushing defeat this past week, but instead he made the whole country think that his brain had melted after the election. For a solid 40 seconds, Copeland laughed maniacally on stage during a sermon, and then began laughing hysterically for no apparent reason”
Fire & Brimstone Pentecostal Preacher has to catch his breath at the end of each sentence. Sounds like he’s calling a horse race or an auction or something
“Pastor says God is sparing the U.S. from coronavirus because of the Trump administration”. WRONG!
Over 31,000,000 cases and 569,000 deaths from coronavirus (as of 4-16-21) prove prayer doesn’t work and religions are a SCAM.
Religion and prayer didn’t protect this Preacher from getting Covid-19

Bishop Gerald Glenn, the pastor of New Deliverance Evangelistic Church in Virginia, has died, the church announced on Sunday. Glenn had tested positive for coronavirus, according to a video posted by his daughter Mar-Gerie Crawley.
Bishop Gerald Glenn Dies from COVID-19 After Blasting Social Distancing Measures
Moral of the stories… Republican Religious, science-denying people are stupid for refusing to do what science dictates is best for their health. Also, religion and prayer didn’t protect these people from getting Covid-19
(BTW, I’m not for forced mask wearing or infringing on people’s rights. If some people wants to not wear masks and die, that’s their privilege).
Texas Church Shooting Kills 26 People
There have been NUMEROUS church shootings. If there were a god which intervened in human’s lives, he / she / it would not allow worshipers to be shot & killed in churches (Gods own house) as they have been on numerous occasions.
9 Dead in Charleston Church Shooting
More than 1,000 children were victims of priest abuse, according to grand jury report.
If there were a God who watched out over each of us… he / she / it would not allow Priests to abuse kids, would not allow worshipers to be shot & killed in churches as they have been on numerous occasions… would not allow children to be killed as they were at Sandy Hook or in the numerous High School shootings, would not allow children to abused by their parents… would not allow women to be raped.
The Catholic Church teaches that Priests are intermediaries to God so the fact that so many has engaged in vile, UN-godly conduct is more proof that Religion is a sham.
If there were a God who really cared about humans and responded to prayers, he / she / it would have struck down these abusive Priests with lightning bolts or given them an instant heart attack when they attempted to molest innocent kids. Worst yet, leaders within the Catholic church proved how lawless & corrupt they were by covering up and doing nothing about abuses committed by their Priests.
If there were a God who watched out over each of us… he / she / it would have prevented the genocide / slaughter of 6 million Jews.
The fact that unspeakable horrors happen to people every day with no intervention proves there is no God which intervenes in people’s lives.
Amazing how religious people continue to believe in prayer and faith when it’s clear praying doesn’t work and never has.
These are just a few examples of how religion, going to church & praying is a waste of time and how Religion is a “smoke and mirrors” scam which conditions believers into believing unscientific, unproven BS.
It’s obvious that there’s an intelligent “God” energy which created everything but it’s clear this “God” doesn’t get involved or intervene in our personal lives. Religions has attempted to humanize the God energy which created everything.
The above video explains how religion can cause permanent damage to the brain, making an individual closed minded / “conservative” or more open minded / “liberal” if they are less religious.
Established Religions have been used as a way to “control the masses” and brainwashes people into believing things which are fiction & illogical.
There’s millions of people in the US (primary right-wingers) who really believe televangelists like Kenneth Copeland (in the video above) saying his “Wind of God” will destroy Covid-19 and Hank Kunneman “God is sparing the U.S. from Coronavirus because of the Trump administration”.
This is why Republicans (who overwhelmingly claim to be Religious) are used accepting and believing BS which defy truth and logic, including lies from FOX pundits and political leaders like Trump who has according to fact checkers, made over 30,000 false or misleading statements since being installed as President by the Electoral College (wasn’t elected by the majority).
Religion Is A Gigantic Fraud
Religious beliefs are against common sense. There is no god. There are no angels, devils, heavens, hells, ghosts, witches, nor miracles.
“433,000,000 Mohammedans believe that the Koran was brought by an angel from heaven; 335,000,000 Hindus believe one of their gods, Siva, has six arms; 153,000,000 Buddhists believe they will be reincarnated; 904,000,000 Christians believe a god made the world in six days, Joshua stopped the sun by yelling at it, and Jesus was born of a virgin and nullified natural laws to perform miracles.
There is absolutely no scientific proof of any of these claims. Science has shown them to be contrary to all known facts. It is more intelligent to classify them as false. Religions are all based upon the primitive superstitions of ignorant, stone-age men who had no knowledge of science and thought the world was flat. The Catholic Church imprisoned Galileo for life and burned Bruno at the stake because they disagreed with these superstitious beliefs.
These primitive beliefs have been kept alive by a vast army of priests, preachers, and rabbis because it is to their great profit to promote them, first, by imposing them on the helpless brains of children, and second, by saturating the air, TV, press, and schools with their childish superstitions and unreasonable claims. They fool the ignorant and make the gullible and the intelligent alike pay tribute to them. Their multi-billion-dollar properties and incomes are exempt from taxes; they get half-fare on trains, busses, and planes; and receive billions of dollars in grants of taxpayers’ money to help build up their political power, wealth, and luxurious living. Taxes could be cut 10 percent if churches paid their just share”.
Conservatives & Religion
Research finds that children with low intelligence are more likely to hold prejudiced attitudes as adults. These findings point to a vicious cycle, according to lead researcher Gordon Hodson, a psychologist at Brock University in Ontario.
Low-intelligence adults tend to gravitate toward socially conservative ideologies, the study found. Those ideologies, in turn, stress hierarchy and resistance to change, attitudes that can contribute to prejudice.
Science says Conservatives are Dumb
10 Traits of Christian Religious Fanatics
1- They actually know a lot less than many Atheists and Agnostics do about the Bible, Christianity, and church history — but still call themselves a Christian
2- They define 0.01% as a “high success rate” when it comes to answered prayers. They consider that to be evidence that prayer works. And they think that the remaining 99.99% FAILURE was simply the will of God.
3- While modern science, history, geology, biology, and physics have failed to convince them otherwise, some idiot rolling around on the floor speaking in “tongues” may be all the evidence they need to prove Christianity.
4- They believe that the entire population of this planet with the exception of those who share their beliefs — though excluding those in all rival sects — will spend Eternity in an infinite Hell of Suffering. And yet they consider their religion the most “tolerant” and “loving”.
5- They are willing to spend their life looking for little loop-holes in the scientifically established age of the Earth (4.55 billion years), but find nothing wrong with believing dates recorded by pre-historic tribesmen sitting in their tents and guessing that the Earth is a couple of generations old.
7- They laugh at Hindu beliefs that deify humans, and Greek claims about gods sleeping with women, but have no problem believing that the Holy Spirit impregnated Mary, who then gave birth to a man-god who got killed, came back to life and then ascended into the sky.
8- Their face turns purple when they hear of the “atrocities” attributed to Allah, but they don’t even flinch when hearing about how God/Jehovah slaughtered all the babies of Egypt in “Exodus” and ordered the elimination of entire ethnic groups in “Joshua” — including women, children, and trees!
8- They laugh at polytheists, but have no problem believing in a Trinity god
9- They feel insulted and “dehumanized” when scientists say that people evolved from lesser life forms, but they have no problem with the Biblical claim that we were created from dirt
10- They vigorously deny the existence of gods claimed by other religions, but feel outraged when someone denies the existence of their god.
Acting like a raving lunatic,”Pastor” Kevin Swanson advocates the Death Penalty for Gay People. This is the same type of rhetoric used by the Nazi’s which ultimately caused the genocide of 6 Million Jews.
Is it important to note that the bible also advocates the Death Penalty for working on Sunday and Adultery:
Exodus 31:15 “Whoever does any work on the Sabbath day shall be put to death”.
Leviticus 20:10: “If a man commits adultery with another man’s wife–with the wife of his neighbor–both the adulterer and the adulteress are to be put to death”.
No mention by this “Pastor” about those quotes… an example of how radical right-wing religious nutcases uses the bible to selectively justify their radical points of view.
According to the above video, there have been many other “Jesus” figures going back thousands of years.
I was raised in a Catholic family and forced by my parents to go to church every Sunday. I was taught you must be Catholic, believe in & worship “Jesus Christ” to be accepted into heaven. I never liked church. It bored me to death and couldn’t wait until it was time to leave.
By the time I was 14, I concluded church teachings that you must be a Catholic to be accepted into heaven to be ridiculous. How about people who practice other religions, or no religion… native Indians, tribes of people who live in jungles… all being condemned to hell because they weren’t Christians who worshiped “Jesus Christ”? Totally absurd!
My parents told me I could stop going to church when I turned 16, so I quit when I turned 16. I identify with being “Spiritual but not religious” and feel absolute peace and tranquility. I have no fear of anything, including death.
It does appear there is life after death as reported and described by volumes of people who had “Near Death” experiences.
People from around the world… who believed in different religions or no religion, and didn’t believe in a god experienced similar out-of-body experiences.
Some describe having a “life review” in which a person rapidly sees the totality of their life while experiencing a reckoning or judgment for things they did which hurt people. They see the faces of people they encountered during their lives and feel the pain they caused.
I believe we are born with a physical body and spiritual body. When we die, we naturally transition into the spirit world.
The general belief among religious people that “god” is perfect presents a dichotomy. If god is perfect, why would he / she / it create such flawed, imperfect creatures as humans?
Missing details from the bible, such as the creation of man; “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness”… were found in ancient Sumerian clay tablets pre-dating the bible by thousands of years.
According to ancient Sumerian texts (explained in the video above), humans were created to be slaves for an alien race called the Anunnaki who came the from planet Nibiru to mine gold from our planet earth. Anunnaki means “Those Who from Heaven to Earth Came”. They needed laborers to do their work and created humans to be just intelligent enough to do the work required. They designed humans to not be as intelligent as they were.
If this story is true, it would explain why humans are so imperfect, why so many are incredibly stupid, why they are constantly at war with each other and why humans seem incapable of governing themselves.
The fact that almost 1/2 of the people in the United States support Trump, (who is a lunatic) and the other 1/2 chose Biden when there were so many better, younger and more motivating candidates shows mass stupidity runs rampant in humans.
The Religious belief that a God created the universe solely for humans is a ridiculous, out-dated belief and yet millions still believe it. In the cosmic scope of things, this entire planet is but a grain of sand in a gigantic universe.
The above video really puts our place in the universe in perspective. When you consider how vast the universe is, perhaps you can understand why I feel “God” is intelligent energy which created everything instead of some creature which looks like humans (God made in man’s image).
Most of the problems in the United States, our Government and the world is due to Radical Right-Wing Religious “Conservatives”. Problems we face in our society could be alleviated if we made science, logic and reason our guide.
