holy fucking scandal batman

im feeling totally amazed and dejected this morning after a quick check of the news i learned that my top pick and one of my favorite riders got barred from racing in the tour de france this year. it seems that he was among 58 riders named in a doping scandal so out he goes. i certainly hope he didnt use drugs to enhance his performance. i fucking hate cheating. its a huge upset. its like ben rothlisberger getting ejected the night before the superbowl last year. there definitely would have been a different outcome. im still picking zabriskie to be the first rider in yellow but seeing as how jan ullrich was also thrown out neither t-mobile or csc will be in the top teams rolling into paris. im thinking that the discovery channel team will be battling it out with phonak for the top spot. im looking for a good old fashioned duel for the yellow jersey between floyd landis and george hincapie.

rollin, rollin, rollin...

got plans for the next 3 weeks? break them. on saturday morning the 93rd tour de france gets rolling with the opening prologue which should be won by dave zabriskie. team csc will continue to kick ass from there culminating on july 23rd when ivan basso rolls across the line 3 minutes ahead of jan ullrich crushing his bid for another win. im guessing floyd landis will be great and im excited to see how hincapie does acting as the big dog this year. either one could finish in the top 3.

are you pondering what im pondering?

i recently received a comment on one of my posts that is so disturbing i felt the need to write about it. here it is.

"Without God there is no morality."

i have heard this before and it seems that theologians that say this think it is a great philosophical statement. however anyone who buys into this hasnt really thought about what it says about religious beliefs. it makes the claim that people get their morals from god. that without god there is no right or wrong. they use it to claim that atheists are people without morals. but they dont see that what they are really saying is that the only reason they dont do things like steal, murder, beat their spouses and kids, or sexually assault their neighbors is because they are scared that an invisible guy who lives in the sky will punish them. that without that guy in the clouds telling them what not to do and threatening them, that they wouldnt have any idea that those terrible things wouldnt be ok. how is this not the statement of a raving lunatic? of course no one in their right mind would believe such a thing so the only other alternative is to admit that we have morals because they are necessary for the good of society and the survival of our species. we have morals regardless of our belief in gods. so what do we need religions for?

jesus!

my freakin blog has really turned out to be a lot of rants about religions. i guess its just because theyre so prevalent and so freakin wacky. ive got plans in the works to launch a massive attack against each major religion in turn that will shock and awe. the morons are definitely going to get it first. some of their beliefs are downright crazy.(although they certainly dont have a strangle-hold on all the crazy beliefs)

hey look at that! i meant to type mormons but ended up typing morons instead. funny...spell check didnt notice any problem with it.

wheres the love yall? (questions for christians)

gods love is such a goofball notion. really...honestly...think about it. if you were a parent and you punished your children the way that god wants to punish you for disobeying his ten little rules... you would have child services beating down your door and i would be watching your whole horrible story on nightline. if your kid got caught stealing would you throw them in the oven as if they were hansel and grettel? would that be showing your love? could you bring yourself to even consider throwing your beloved baby into a bonfire? if your parent tried to do that to you or even seriously threatened you with it for not following their rules wouldnt you tell them to go fuck themselves? or would you sit back in awe and tell other people that they arent as lucky as you since they dont have parents who want to punish and murder them so horrifically because they think about the hot cashier at the grocery store while masturbating? the love i have for my daughter is so completly unquestionably unconditional she couldnt possibly shake it by doing anything so begnign. wouldnt/dont you feel the same way about your children? why would you ever want to glorify someone who didnt? what would you do to a person who harmed your kid? would you introduce your children to an abuser and leave them in their care knowing the horrible harm that could come to them? why would you ever possibly want to introduce them to your god?

he should have read my blog

i keep tellin everybody but some people just dont like to listen

women have veto power over god

here in minnesota theres a phenomenon that happens because of our long drawn out winters that keep people cooped up inside with not much to do. every spring when the weather warms and people start shedding layers of clothes you start to notice quite a large number of pregnant women who obviously found ways to pass the time during the annual winter retreat indoors. well today i was eavesdropping on a conversation between a couple of child bearing gals at my office and something suddenly struck me as odd. one of the women was catholic and talking about baptism and other churchie crap that godwads blather about but then she also mentioned that she was definitely going to have an epidural. how strange. here i was thinking she was a good christian but she obviously was overlooking a huge part of church doctrine. original sin. its her duty as a woman to suffer the pain of child birth because of eves transgression in the garden of eden. but here she was planning to veto her gods ruling. obviously she is the omniscient one. by asking her anesthesiologist to inject her spine with a pain killer she is essentially saying fuck you god you cant punish me. i bet she also figured a way to avoid hell.
