People do good because they are human, not because they are religious! Do not give God any credit for the good they do, they did it! A bad form of religion or religious faith deserves to be deserted and indeed should be. The notion that if a religion is false or true, it is […]

Religious Lies Refuted – Let the Twilight of Religion Begin…
Please use this box below to search this site – Is it love to tell people that an all-good personal God exists? No, because it is to say that people should not be valued above all but he should for he is all-good and better than us and because all good including ours is […]
ZOROASTRIANISM, JUDAISM, AND CHRISTIANITY – Hannah M.G.Shapero
Zoroastrianism, Judaism, and Christianity share so many features that it seems that there must be a connection between them. Does this connection really exist? If so, how did it happen? And how much of the similarity between these faiths is due simply to parallel evolution, rather than direct contact and influence? The simplest answer to […]

The founder of Cognitive Dissonance Theory compared the psychological drive to physiological hunger. Just as hunger is a motivation to eat and rid oneself of the hunger, dissonance is a motivation to explain inconsistency and rid oneself of the dissonance. Explanations, therefore, work toward satisfying dissonance just as nutrients work toward satisfying hunger. He suggested […]
Biblical Absurdity at its Finest – Dr Jason Long
