The Atheist Blogger

Looking over my stats, I found a few visitors coming in from a HaloScan comments page. Incidently, does anyone know how to find the original blog from this comments page? Judging by the comments it’s probably some deeply ignorant Christian blog. Anyway, I’d got some hits off that for my copy-cat wafer stealing event.

Reading through the comments, it turns into a discussion/argument about Eucharist between Catholics and (I assume) either atheists or semi-religious Christians. One Catholic named Rosemarie revealed the miracles behind the Eucharist:

Two miracles take place at the consecration. The first is that the substance of the bread and wine change into Jesus Christ. Not His dead Body and Blood but His risen and living Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity - His whole resurrected Self. The second miracle is that the qualities of bread and wine still remain as though no change has occurred. This is necessary so that the Eucharist can be in a foodlike form that we can easily consume.

Seriously? THAT is a miracle??? It’s always been my thinking that miracles were meant to be observable to be a sign of God’s power, as well as reward the believers (possibly converting some non-believers in the process). Now I know what miracles really are I should have been more open minded towards them. I apologise, and will now list various miracles I have encountered in the last hour.

1. My laptop just started miraculously floating around the room, whilst at the same time (by the Grace of God) appearing to stay exactly where it always was. Truly divine!
2. I just slipped on some wet grass and instead of my foot going into the water of the pond, it stopped on the surface and I was able to walk on water. To the casual observer though, God made my foot go through the surface of the pond and get wet.
3. God inspired the gift of the Japanese language to my brain, and I talked for 30 minutes in a language I had not learned at any point in my life. At the same time, God inspired my native English to my brain, so the words that came out of my mouth can all be found in English dictionaries.
4. …I think you get my point.

I know some people get a little annoyed when atheists constantly ask for proof, but in all honesty can you really blame us? If the above reasoning is required to be a believer then I’d prefer not to participate in this ritual sacrafice of common sense and rationality.

If anything, this just shows how dangerous these people are. This kind of thinking is what drives their irrational brains to kill abortion workers and put their babies in microwaves. It’s a damn good thing our legal systems rely on actual physical evidence. If that ever changes, the first thing I’ll do is to have all Catholics arrested for cannibalism.
