SUNDAY'S ANTI-SERMON #2163

A GAME FOR YOU
This one beat me and I need your help.
Basically, using the clue you add a word to the word given.
In this case the clue is "Biting African insect" and the word given is "Tsetse". The word to be added is "Fly"
Now the next answer must start with the word "Fly".
Clue: Soar                                           Fly High
Place for some seniors                        High School
It might march                                    School Band
Now I get stumped.
Accoustically resonant structure.       Band ?
Working up from the bottom we have...
Sleight of hand challenge                   ? Game
"You lose" at the arcade                     Game Over.
So what one word fits in both spaces to satisfy the clues?
I told everyone at the bar that one of you smart son of bitches could solve it.
********************

I'M GETTING REALLY TIRED OF THIS SHIT. DON'T KNOW HOW LONG I CAN KEEP UP SPENDING SO MUCH TIME PREACHING TO THE CHOIR, AS IT WERE.

How about this. What if I told you that I believed that people who wore blue shirts were spared from hurricane damage more than any other color shirt. How would you respond?

Well, I would respond by citing statistics that showed the exact percentage of damage was done to the homes of people who wore blue shirts as those wearing any other color. Problem solved.

But then you have people huddled in their closets praying to be spared. Would you be surprised that the exact percentage of people praying were killed or injured as the people who weren't? OF COURSE YOU WOULDN'T BE SURPRISED! Nobody believes that shit...but half of you do it anyway.

Or praying for a child with cancer....survival rate exactly the same for prayers and non-prayers.

Yeah, you should be made fun of for such voodoo crap.

Sorry. But it's true.

Interesting question a ran across. I consider people who think they are going to live in heaven for eternity just as fucking delusional as the ones who think they will be reborn as a cow. It's just so preposterous.  

 Would you be surprised to learn that the more education you get, the lesser chance you believe in supernatural bullshit? Of course not. 

 Yeah....that's it. You've got it all figured out. Also, that astroid that has been drifting through space for millions of years landed on your fucking car for a reason. 
Please.

And that must prove it true...right?  If smiling proved something devine, I'd like to introduce you to my friend marijuana.

 Until, of course, he doesn't save you from violence. Then, of course, it's YOUR fault. 

Or maybe it's the Devil's fault...

 You don't hear very much about the Devil anymore.

You see, they have a problem. If god is all powerful, how in the name of sanity did the devil defeat him in a rebellion and take half his angels? Plus, god created the entire universe, which means he created the devil. What's up with that?

 I have never said that the bible was devoid of good advice. But it's only advice. 

To me, this happening is much more plausible than a he gendered creator putting you through all this pain of living and dying just to afterwards give you a happy place.

 What kind of being would do that?

I have been studying religion for most of my life and I have never had anyone explain the holy trinity to me successfully...

My take: Early on there were hole in the logic and they simply filled those holes by bringing in "The Holy Ghost".

Ghost. Please. 

This is me in any religious gathering...

The first thanks that Texas nurse gave for her Ebola survival was to her god....like fuck those poor people in Africa who couldn't afford state of the art health care...god doesn't give a shit about them.

You don't need to be a smart person to know this is true...

 We have seen it played out with slavery, mixed marriage and now homosexuality. They only slow down what will one day be commonplace...

And for all the pain, I condemn them in the strongest terms.

I don't hate religious people, but I do judge them. If you are not smart enough to use the same logic you use buying a used car to the claims made by a preacher, then...sorry...you lose. 

You believe invisible telepathic bullshit like this...

 Then you are wasting my time.

And this precisely nails it...

 No matter even if you see how stupid the rib-woman and the apple story is...no matter how illogical that god created satin and now can't control him...no matter what....you...don't...want...to...know.

 And then there is this ordinary guy who ADMITS he's fake....

 He's exactly as fake as this shit...

 Christians love words. The more nonsense you can throw out, the deeper and more profound it makes you feel...

Do any of you see the gapping logical holes in that paragraph? 

Now, THIS is advice...

 He never said a word about it going on with you in it.
