POPSJoyce Meyer's $23,000 toilet... And you still believe its not a racket? Doesn't look like feeding the poor and walking in the footsteps of Jesus to me. But keep donating, they all have to take a dump somewhere. It's called fleecing the flock. It's a time honored tradition. Glad you could be on board. Thanks again for your donation. God will pay you back a 1000-fold ... after you're dead. (What a great punch line! Only a few people actually get it.)

POPSReligion: Punishment Wins Every Time At its most basic, religion teaches a black/white view of reality. Good/bad, righteous/sinful, us/them, religious/atheist. And least we forget, heaven/hell. And make no mistake, punishment is a major component of the mix. In fact, it's sometimes difficult to keep up with all the smiting going on in their various holy books. Is it no wonder that a person who was evicted from an anger management class would be deeply influenced by the punishment aspects of religion? Yes, we must assume responsibility for our actions but in the case of religion to be punished for eternity is not only irrational but arguably sadistic and insane.

POPSCan Jesus Cure AIDS? An advertisement has been ruled out for lack of evidence. I guess truth in advertising is taken seriously by the ASA. Good job!

POPSLiving in a Theocracy We often hear of the need to "protect" cultures from contamination. Of what good would it do to protect a culture like show in this clip from outside influence except to introduce the concept of equality, liberty, and morality stripped from the repressive theistic dogma that exists there now? Some things are simply wrong. Justifying them on the basis of culture or religion is no justification at all. It's an excuse.

POPSReligion Cancels Insanity Plea From article: Psychiatrists who evaluated Ramkissoon at the request of a judge concluded that she was not criminally insane. Her attorney, Steven Silverman, said the doctors found that her beliefs were indistinguishable from religious beliefs, in part because they were shared by those around her. "She wasn't delusional, because she was following a religion," Silverman said, describing the findings of the doctors' psychiatric evaluation. "At times there can be an overlap between extreme religious conviction and delusion," said Robert Jay Lifton, a cult expert and psychiatrist who lectures at Harvard Medical School. "It's a difficult area for psychiatry and the legal system." Waiting for the child to resurrect not insane? Ah, the benefits of religion.

POPSThe deification of stupidity Religious extremism and ignorance go hand in hand. But this one says, if you criticise me you criticise my god. No bloody idea. Islamists and the Pope are having bad hair weeks, or maybe the cracks are showing.

POPS2 Canadian polygamists arrested Here's a thought: If marriage is between one man and one woman, how do the Mormons (and famous biblical characters), who bankrolled Prop 8, explain polygamy?

POPSQuotations by Abraham Lincoln ""In religion, Mr. Lincoln was about of the same opinion as Bob Ingersoll, and there is no account of his ever having changed. He went to church a few times with his family while he was President, but so far as I have been able to find out, he remained an unbeliever. Mr. Lincoln in his younger days wrote a book, in which he endeavored to prove the fallacy of the plan of salvation and the divinity of Christ."

POPSIslam: A Cover for Crimes Against Humanity Can anyone imagine some cat up there who was actually in charge and appointed this filthy little slob to be his overseer of the underlings, making sure they all please this psychotic deity? Uhhhmm, me neither. So, sanctioned by this jackass of a god, this bastard rapes and kills for a living. Just another, in the long list of examples of why religion is the worse idea in the history of humanity. Call superman what you like, Allah, Yahweh, Jesus, Yehovah, Whatevah ... just call any of these names and your criminal psychosis becomes licensed.
