Post by s***@gmail.comPost by fasgnadhPost by s***@gmail.comPost by Mike PainterPost by fasgnadhSo I'm working on my car and not paying any particular attention
to my next-door neighbors who are hanging out on their back porch
and chatting with a friend. They're about 40 feet away and voices
carry pretty clearly.
"It is utterly impossible for anyone to be an 'atheist'! You can
BELIEVE you're one, but you're really not because everyone's got a
god, whether it's Gawd or TV or themselves."
YOur neighbours are smarter than you, they must have been reading my
posts carefully logging all the forms of closet theism among atheists;
- Athei-Buddhists, like Mark Richo and the others who believe in Karma,
re-incarnation, deva's, demigods and follow the One who Walked on
Water, just like Jesus!!! BD
# "it makes utterly no difference which goddesses or gods
# you believe in, as long as you have some...
# Me, I'd suggest Bastet." - Cary Kittrell
#
# (has he misspelled 'Kitten'? ;-)
So in your mind there is no difference between a man,
a TV, or the gods of any religion,
Oh no, I can tell the difference.. you are reading the
product of ATHEISTS minds! B^D Smartarse's neighbour
merely accurately described how atheists BELIEVE a whole
range if idiotic nonsense, and i provided proof that was the case.
You seem to think that there is no difference between eating an apple
and eating dog shit because in both cases you are EATING!!! B^D
Clearly you are making a significant error in logical discrimination!!!
BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAAHAHA!
I don't share any of your idiotic beliefs.. I have merely DOCUMENTED
them ...so everyone can have a good laugh!
BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAA
Logic really is not your forte, is it.. and from what we see
in self-contradictory atheist beliefs, your confusion
and irrational lack of logic is the norm among atheists;
Here's some more atheist beliefs.. they just get sillier and sillier;

Post by Mike PainterPost by fasgnadhWell shit!
I give up.
Most atheists do.. once they grow up past adolescence and learn
something about the history of atheist regimes, they wake up!
I'm not going to argue for custody of Doook or the other
trolls--if I'm not really an atheist, they don't matter anyway,
right?
Most atheists are not really atheists, it just takes them a while
to realise their unhappiness comes from the strain of trying to
reconcile their contradictions.. what is amusing is how the die-hards,
realising they are as miserable as Soviet and Maoist atheists, try
to perpetuate their illusion by pretending the happiness of others
is 'false' happiness; B^D

Dude, when you start rationalisng their own misery and despair like
that you KNOW that Jung was right!
"Among all my patients in the second half of life, that is, over
thirty-five, there has not been one whose problem in the last
resort was not that of finding a religious outlook on life.
It is safe to say that every one of them fell ill because
he had lost that which the living religions of every age
have given their followers, and none of them has really
been healed who did not regain his religious outlook."
-Carl G. Jung Modern Man in Search of a Soul
Who wants my rubber chicken?
Have you washed the KY jelly off it?
Faithless Atheist abandons life-partner to Porn Industry!
"A VIDEO depicting degrading sex acts filmed in the rooms
of the North Melbourne Football Club and posted online
by one of the side's young footballers is being investigated
by the club.
North Melbourne chief executive Eugene Arocca said last
night he was "embarrassed" about the four-minute movie
that depicts sex acts by a toy rubber chicken — being
manoeuvred by an unidentifiable human hand — in a supermarket,
a pub toilet and in the club's locker rooms and offices."
Smartass! How could you!
Oh the Humanity!
http://www.theage.com.au/news/rfnews/roos-pull-sick-video-off-net/2009/04/07/1238869972137.html
"Throughout the video, which was posted on YouTube, the
toy chicken has a condom on its head and is manipulated to
look as if it is penetrating the carcass of a real chicken
that also features throughout the film."
So far it's just just a normal Sunday at Atheist house! B^D
"The real chicken seemingly plays the role of a woman."
Well, real women won't let atheists pollute the gene pool
by swimming in it.. B^D ..they have to rely on surrogates.
Tim Minchin even wrote a song about Atheist Love;
http://youtu.be/e6raVzrbqrM
"The storyline becomes increasingly menacing as the two characters
go to the pub — he has beer, she has white wine — and end up
having sex in the toilet.
The final scenes show the real chicken carcass being hurled
against a wall, then run over by a van before the rubber
chicken returns and simulates fornication again.
The backing track is Move Bitch by American rapper Ludacris."
"the video, The Adventures of Little Boris, .. found its way onto
YouTube. It's now been removed. I'm furious to say the least that it's
gotten out, though I haven't had the advantage of seeing it."
AFL corporate affairs manager Brian Walsh saw the video and last night
described it as "infantile and inappropriate".
What do you expect of people whose Significant Other
us a Rubber Chickens? B^D
"It just bristles with degradation of women. Don't they get it?"
"a video that's just plain misogynistic. It's just full of women hatred
— women are to be belittled, to be raped and to be degraded. It's sick."
The most terrifying part for the pornographers is...

You don't appear to understand what EVIDENCE means, let me show you;
Post by s***@gmail.comHere is the bit which embarrassed
I should think you would be embarrassed, or at least you
will be when you realise that ignoring the 40,000,000 victims
of the Atheist tyrannies - the Union of Savage Slaughter
and Repression(USSR), the Great Leap Backward and the Cultural
Devolution just makes this UNSUBSTANTIATED ATHEIST OPINION look
as ridiculous as you for swallowing it without any PROOF;
Post by s***@gmail.com"...higher rates of belief in and worship of a creator correlate with
higher rates of homicide, juvenile and early adult mortality, STD
infection rates, teen pregnancy, and abortion in the prosperous

Utter baldadash! Where's the proof you were asked for, you fraud!?
Below is a PARTIAL list of the terror, torture and MURDER committed
by just two of the Atheist Regimes in the past Century. These were
OFFICIAL Atheist States, run by Atheist tyrants, implementing Atheist
policies.

"Our program necessarily includes the propaganda of atheism."

"How can you make a revolution without firing squads?"

Once you have recovered from the shock of seeing what ACTUAL HISTORICAL
EVIDENCE looks like, and have realised your BELIEFS aren't worth shit
without the EVIDENCE you were dismissed for failing to provide,
and feel mortified that you are shown to be an irrational cretin
asking people to take your drivel on BLIND FAITH, and that the
historical evidence I am providing you is irrefutable, you will have
limited options;
1. Stick your head up your arse like every other atheist has done
in the face of the historical evidence of atheist tyranny, snip
it, run away, deny it exists, and then never respond to my posts
except to whine that I keep rubbing your noses in it!
2. Find evidence of over 40,000,000 dead as a direct result of
theocracies in the same time period. (there are none, atheism
is far and away THE MOST DEADLY AND DYSFUNCTIONAL OF ALL
POLITICAL PERVERSIONS! )
3, develop a headache, complain there are too many facts, or you
have to get your hair done, and fuck off never to be seen in
Usenet again!

# Soviet Union, Stalin's regime (1924-53): 20 000 000 [make link]
* There are basically two schools of thought when it comes to the
number who died at Stalin's hands. There's the "Why doesn't anyone
realize that communism is the absolutely worst thing ever to hit the
human race, without exception, even worse than both world wars, the
slave trade and bubonic plague all put together?" school, and there's
the "Come on, stop exaggerating. The truth is horrifying enough without
you pulling numbers out of thin air" school. The two schools are
generally associated with the right and left wings of the political
spectrum, and they often accuse each other of being blinded by
prejudice, stubbornly refusing to admit the truth, and maybe even having
a hidden agenda. Also, both sides claim that recent access to former
Soviet archives has proven that their side is right.
* Here are a few illustrative estimates from the Big Numbers school:
o Adler, N., Victims of Soviet Terror, 1993 cites these:
+ Chistyakovoy, V. (Neva, no.10): 20 million killed
during the 1930s.
+ Dyadkin, I.G. (Demograficheskaya statistika
neyestestvennoy smertnosti v SSSR 1918-1956 ): 56 to 62 million
"unnatural deaths" for the USSR overall, with 34 to 49 million under Stalin.
+ Gold, John.: 50-60 million.
o Davies, Norman (Europe A History, 1998): c. 50 million
killed 1924-53, excluding WW2 war losses. This would divide (more or
less) into 33M pre-war and 17M after 1939.
o Rummel, 1990: 61,911,000 democides in the USSR 1917-87, of
which 51,755,000 occurred during the Stalin years. This divides up into:
+ 1923-29: 2,200,000 (plus 1M non-democidal famine deaths)
+ 1929-39: 15,785,000 (plus 2M non-democidal famine)
+ 1939-45: 18,157,000
+ 1946-54: 15,613,000 (plus 333,000 non-democidal famine)
+ TOTAL: 51,755,000 democides and 3,333,000 non-demo.
famine
o William Cockerham, Health and Social Change in Russia and
Eastern Europe: 50M+
o Wallechinsky: 13M (1930-32) + 7M (1934-38)
+ Cited by Wallechinsky:
# Medvedev, Roy (Let History Judge): 40 million.
# Solzhenitsyn, Aleksandr: 60 million.
o MEDIAN: 51 million for the entire Stalin Era; 20M during
the 1930s.
* And from the Lower Numbers school:
o Nove, Alec ("Victims of Stalinism: How Many?" in J. Arch
Getty (ed.) Stalinist Terror: New Perspectives, 1993): 9,500,000
"surplus deaths" during the 1930s.
o Cited in Nove:
+ Maksudov, S. (Poteri naseleniya SSSR, 1989): 9.8
million abnormal deaths between 1926 and 1937.
+ Tsaplin, V.V. ("Statistika zherty naseleniya v 30e
gody" 1989): 6,600,000 deaths (hunger, camps and prisons) between the
1926 and 1937 censuses.
+ Dugin, A. ("Stalinizm: legendy i fakty" 1989):
642,980 counterrevolutionaries shot 1921-53.
+ Muskovsky Novosti (4 March 1990): 786,098 state
prisoners shot, 1931-53.
o Gordon, A. (What Happened in That Time?, 1989, cited in
Adler, N., Victims of Soviet Terror, 1993): 8-9 million during the 1930s.
o Ponton, G. (The Soviet Era, 1994): cites an 1990 article by
Milne, et al., that excess deaths 1926-39 were likely 3.5 million and at
most 8 million.
o MEDIAN: 8.5 Million during the 1930s.
* As you can see, there's no easy compromise between the two
schools. The Big Numbers are so high that picking the midpoint between
the two schools would still give us a Big Number. It may appear to be a
rather pointless argument -- whether it's fifteen or fifty million, it's
still a huge number of killings -- but keep in mind that the population
of the Soviet Union was 164 million in 1937, so the upper estimates
accuse Stalin of killing nearly 1 out of every 3 of his people, an
extremely Polpotian level of savagery. The lower numbers, on the other
hand, leave Stalin with plenty of people still alive to fight off the
German invasion.
* [Letter]
* Although it's too early to be taking sides with absolute
certainty, a consensus seems to be forming around a death toll of 20
million. This would adequately account for all documented nastiness
without straining credulity:
o In The Great Terror (1969), Robert Conquest suggested that
the overall death toll was 20 million at minimum -- and very likely 50%
higher, or 30 million. This would divide roughly as follows: 7M in
1930-36; 3M in 1937-38; 10M in 1939-53. By the time he wrote The Great
Terror: A Re-assessment (1992), Conquest was much more confident that 20
million was the likeliest death toll.
o Britannica, "Stalinism": 20M died in camps, of famine,
executions, etc., citing Medvedev
o Brzezinski: 20-25 million, dividing roughly as follows: 7M
destroying the peasantry; 12M in labor camps; 1M excuted during and
after WW2.
o Daniel Chirot:
+ "Lowest credible" estimate: 20M
+ "Highest": 40M
+ Citing:
# Conquest: 20M
# Antonov-Ovseyenko: 30M
# Medvedev: 40M
o Courtois, Stephane, Black Book of Communism (Le Livre Noir
du Communism): 20M for the whole history of Soviet Union, 1917-91.
+ Essay by Nicolas Werth: 15M
+ [Ironic observation: The Black Book of Communism
seems to vote for Hitler as the answer to the question of who's worse,
Hitler (25M) or Stalin (20M).]
o John Heidenrich, How to Prevent Genocide: A Guide for
Policymakers, Scholars, and the Concerned Citizen (2001): 20M, incl.
+ Kulaks: 7M
+ Gulag: 12M
+ Purge: 1.2M (minus 50,000 survivors)
o Adam Hochschild, The Unquiet Ghost: Russians Remember
Stalin: directly responsible for 20 million deaths.

After Communism (1995): upwards of 25M

estimate by Agence France Presse, "The most widely respected figure".
* Meisner, Maurice, Mao's China and After (1977, 1999), doesn't
give an overall total either, but he does give estimates for the three
principle mass dyings of the Mao years:

Aikman:
o Between 1949 and 1997, 50M prisoners passed through the
labor camps, and 15,000,000 died (citing Harry Wu)
* WHPSI: 1,633,319 political executions and 25,961 deaths from
political violence, 1948-77. TOTAL: 1,659,280
* Analysis: If we line up the 14 sources which claim to be
complete, the median falls in the 45.75 to 52.5 million
range, so you probably can't go wrong picking a final
number from this neighborhood.
Depending on how you want to count some of the incomplete
estimates (such as Becker and Meisner) and whether to count a
source twice (or thrice, as with Walker) if it's referenced by
two different authorities, you can slide the median up and
down the scale by many millions. Keep in mind, however, that
official Chinese records are hidden from scrutiny,
so most of these numbers are pure guesses. It's pointless
to get attached to any one of them, because the real number
could easily be half or twice any number here.
* Perhaps a better way of estimating would be to add up the
individual components. The medians here are:
o Purges, etc. during the first few years: 2M (10 estimates)
o Great Leap Forward: 31-33M (14 estimates)
o Cultural Revolution: 1M (13 estimates)
o Ethnic Minorities, primarily Tibetans: 750-900T
(8 estimates, see below)
o Labor Camps: 20M (5 estimates)
o This produces a total of some 54,750,000 to 56,900,000
deaths. The weak link in this calculation is in the
Labor Camp numbers for which we only have 5 estimates.
* Notice that many early body counts (such as Walker) completely
miss the famine during the Great Leap Forward, which was
largely unknown in the west until around 1980. There are two
contradictory ways to assess those early estimates which
ignore the famine:
1. "If these are the numbers that they came up with without
the famine, imagine how high the true number will be
once you add the famine deaths."
2. "Can we trust any of these numbers? After all, if they
missed such a huge famine, they can't have known very much
about what was going on inside China."
* ... so this line of reasoning will get us nowhere. In fact, the
median of the 7 estimate that predate 1980 is 45.7M, which is
almost the same as the median of the 7 estimates that post-date
1980 -- 58M. (At this scale, a 12M difference counts as "almost
the same".)
Now, remember, these are the CITIZENS of those atheist shitholes being
killed by the Atheist regimes who made their lives such misery and
despair that when the atheist regimes crumbled from their own evil and
incompetence, the people could not wait to shuck off the filthy atheist
shitpigs and their nightmare.. and embrace a path more tolerant of
religion.. since then their nations have prospered.. still suffering
the deep scars of atheist abuse, but once more part of Civilisation and
making progress!!
Now, all you have to do is show similar EVIDENCE.. not your IDIOTIC
OPINIONS, or those of some other atheist cretin.. that countries like
the USA, which Prints "In God We Trust" on it's money, is in any way
such a murderous tyranny, torturing terrorising and murdering over
20,000,000 of it's citizens!
Off you go you snivelling atheist fraud!
Post by s***@gmail.com"Higher rates of non-theism and acceptance of human evolution usually
correlate with lower rates of dysfunction, and the least theistic
nations are usually the least dysfunctional"
BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAA
So these atheist traitors maintain that the United States, Australia
and European nations are all MORE DYSFUNCTIONAL than the USSR with the
Red Terror, and Mao's China with the Red Guards, each of which tortured,
terrorised and murdered over 20,000,000 people!!
Pull the other one, you lying atheist holocaust denier!
Hey Atheists, if you don't like livign here, why don't you all FUCK OFF
TO A NICE ATHEIST SHITHOLE, LIKE Nth KOREA...
You don't have too many other choices, as all of the other Atheist
regimes were complete Cluster Fucks, and are consigned to the dustbin
of history..
..go join them! B^)

# ...the government emptied the cities through mass evacuations

# starvation as a result. Spouses were separated and family meals
# prohibited in order to steer loyalties toward the state
