Questions That Xians Cannot Answer

-

 Where did the talking snake come from?

Why are humans (and plants) created twice in Genesis?

If the god character is all-powerful and all-present, why would he need angels?

How did platypuses get back to Australia after the flood without being seen by a single human soul?

A global flood would kill everything on the planet. What did everyone eat when the floods receded?

Why does it say that Noah took two each of every animal in one passage, and that he took "seven pairs of the clean and two each of the unclean" in another passage?

Why do xians insist on praying in public even though the jesus character specifically forbids doing so? (There is no ambiguity in these passages. No "room for interpretation." Do it this way, or you are a hypocrite.) It is implicated, although not outright stated, that you shouldn't build churches in the first place.

How did Lucifer, an angel with no free will, revolt against his creator, thus committing the ultimate act of free will?

If Adam, Eve, and Cain were the only humans in existence, where did Cain find a wife? Was the god character churning out humans on the side, foreseeing this very eventuality?

In Which the Pastor Takes Down God

  In Which the Pastor Takes Down God No idea is above dissection. While we have touched on a few of the ways in which the god character in monotheistic mythology is deeply flawed, I have yet to do a full-on takedown of the character himself. In this sermon, we will be going back over some ground we have covered before, but this time we are compiling all the most compelling evidence against the entity that monotheistic mythology claims controls the Universe. First, let us enumerate the characteristics of the god character: He is claimed to be all-powerful, all-knowing, and present everywhere, but also lives in big, expensive buildings that only certain people are allowed to enter. He loves everyone, except those he hates, a list that varies from sect to sect. He created the Universe and everything in it, but somehow nobody blames him for mosquitoes. Everything that happens is according to god’s plan, but also bad things happen because of the Devil, a being with his own questiona...

The Preposterous Debate Between Creationism and Evolution

-
 Around 60% of Americans accept the theory of evolution as the most reasonable explanation for observable biodiversity. About 33% reject this theory, believing instead that everything was created exactly as it is and has never changed. Now, let’s take a look at these two conflicting views of the world, starting with creationism. This is the idea that some character referred to as “god” in Xian mythology made everything, one thing right after another, exactly as they are now. He is said to have accomplished this feat in six days and then took a day off. There is absolutely zero evidence of any of this. No “first humans” anywhere in the fossil record, or any proof there was a garden as described in the book. The book itself doesn’t reference any of the denizens of Earth during the hundreds of millions of years prior to man’s emergence. The theory of evolution is that organisms change over time due to environmental or internal pressures. There are literal mountains of evidence...

An Examination of Genesis

-
 Having just perused Genesis, I'd like to point out some narrative inconsistencies and plot holes that I have never seen answered or addressed. So, let's start with the story of creation. For one thing, the god character didn't create water; it was already there. Then he separates the water in half lengthwise, putting half the water above the gap and the rest under the gap. As the story moves forward, that upper water is never mentioned again. According to this, though, the planet is not only covered with water, but surrounded by it, as well. Which makes space exploration kind of awkward. The god character also says "let there be light" twice. One interesting thing I noticed was that man was created twice, once during the creation sequence and once afterward. It is in this second story that man was created from dirt and woman crafted from a rib. In the first one, both man and woman were created at the same time and told to go forth and multiply, but were not given...
