That scientology thingy..

[Uncle Mort]

Personally I like the idea of  ?The Church of God the Utterly Indifferent? from Kurt Vonnegut?s novel ?The Sirens of Titan?

To quote:

 ?I was the victim of a series of accidents, as are we all?

I just can't see how to make money out of it. Nobody's likely to be that bothered.

The Church of the Inner Chicken?

I am one with my inner chicken, bok! bok! scratch! bok! bok!

Let me guess GOS, Coq au Vin?

In one! consider your Karma increased

I finally got around to watching it last night!

It was impressive how that guy never missed a beat through the screaming fit.
It just perfectly illustrates how wasting breath on the religious is utterly futile.

No one is ever going to get a rational debate out of them because they have no substance.
They have nothing to debate with, so they just go round in circles until you are exhausted.

That applys equally to all of them.  I believe the only reason that different religions exist is because some of them can't to bow to others, they would rather be king of their own bunch.

They are not mad. They see it as an achievable means of power, the people that follow are weak and need to follow something.   The loudest noise does the trick usually.

We need to bear all this in mind for the inevitable religious clashes that are bound to come.

Oh bugger I've just realised its getting close to conversion crusade time down here. Every religion going sends its members here for the summer to try and persuade/con/nag/bully people into joining their faith.

I think its time to develop a core dogma for the church of the apoplectic unbeliever

Just tell them you are Jewish, they will know you are a lost cause and move on.

Tried that, unfortunately it seems that the ones they pack off to cornwall are either the hard core 'we can convert anyone' mob or the total failures who are so desperate to gain new members that they will try regardless.

I had 2 of them follow me into a class a few years ago when I was in college. Only getting the message when I finally had enough and let rip, telling them exactly what I thought of them and their religion ending with something along the lines of being completely narked off with them harassing me for however long they had been and if they didnt leave me alone that instant I'd personally bring them closer to god.

Stunned my psychology tutor who up until then thought that I was an easy going soul until that point
