Who actually uses the phrase "Atheism not enough?" in their advertising? That would be the World Pantheism web site. I'm not disagreeing with stuff they have on the site, I just don't get the attraction of slapping the moniker of "God" upon all of nature; or how this is somehow MORE than atheism. Yeah, sure the strict definition of "atheist" is one without belief in any gods, but there's no such thing as a living person who is as one-dimensional as that.
Ever heard of a feller named Sean Sinjin and his book Meme and his web site Better Human. Well, now you have. I haven't read the book, but if I can really read the whole thing free I plan to read it. Interesting. We could all stand to be just a little better humans couldn't we? Sean identifies God as G.O.D. or the Governing Overseer Device inside your head. A query (I start to talk funny like that when I'm dealing with somebody in MENSA): Is Sean's G.O.D. the same as the Christian's "God-shaped hole in your heart"?
And speaking of holes in hearts and heads and psychopaths...what? somebody somewhere must be! I stumbled acrost this here are tickle titled How To Spot A Psychopath and hot damn! I nearly sprained me clickin' finger trying to get over there cuz somebody mightta done "outed" me doncha know. Well, they don't mentioned me by name but...still innerstin...if yer a psychotic type. When he said, "They were mostly overweight, wearing loose, comfortable T-shirts and elasticated sweatpants. There probably wasn't much to do in Broadmoor but eat" I had to look around real quick... overweight, loose clothes, yep. Heck I was even elasticated once, I'm sure of it. But I'd bet Broadmoor has more food than I do.
Sorta reminds me of whoever said "I don't suffer from insanity, I enjoy every minute of it!"
One more thing...
"But surely stock-market psychopaths can't be as bad as serial-killer psychopaths," I said.
"Serial killers ruin families," shrugged Hare. "Corporate and political and religious psychopaths ruin economies. They ruin societies."
