God Friday. If God were born yesterday. Pictures of Jordan.

What a miracle, religiosity. The fact that men wrote a story thousands of years ago that has effected billions of people so deeply is rather confounding. When a faith is based on the premise that all heathens that don't agree with "our" dogma burn in hell for all of eternity, i believe that i believe a major disconnect is at play. 99.999 percent of all born will be in hell. Wow. Wouldn't it have been more lucrative  to create a story that was all inclusive?
The persecution of non believers. The total control of society by the church. The disclusion of the multitudes of the oppressed from the clergy. The criminal behavior documented by thousands of years of decision makers. The secret cadres, gods themselves, deciding upon the fates of the weak behind ornately designed doors. If the story were a recent one, it would be written with a softer, more benevolent hand.
No evidence of an afterlife makes for a tough sale. The pitch goes like this. "Give your life to God and you will go to heaven. If it exists".
With Snacton, just buy a sticker and you will be blissed in some way, forever.
