In all fairness - I consider

In all fairness - I consider my self a “pretheist” (kind of rolls off the tongue after a few tries). Works well with - “I’m the pretheist girl at the party”.

The meaning is steeped in esoteric layers of mystery - basically I believe in the source of all these bull shit religions. I see through all the mistakes that man has made erecting rituals and laws around God - in order to arrive at the primeval OverLord - the unsullied Force that rules over the Universe - beyond the incantations of man in all his ignorance.

But if the theists want the point in this one they can have it. 1 - Love. Atheists to serve. Here we go? Rivka?

No one gives a shit what you believe. We were just seeing how long it would take Rivka to figure that out.

Sorry guys, I was out

Sorry guys, I was out drinking, lol! Okay, cool, Rat Spit, mazal tov, you hear voices! At least I’m not the one who’s schizophrenic (ouch). So where does this... “Overlord” come from? What’s his name, oh, and excuse me, I’m sure he’s a guy, right?

Did he appear to you in a dream? Or did you see him in plain day? It makes a difference.

And you’re a pretheist what? It does sound pretty, I admit. And by the way, I’d love to know how you can see all these mistakes in every cult, because I think man made laws against women for power, not because some Santa up in the clouds told them so. I mean, I’ll be honest here, I’m a little atheist who accepts that she doesn’t know everything, but I guess you don’t seem to have a problem with that, do you?

So Rat Spit, do you also believe in fairies? As a kid, I used to, but I grew out of that one.

That’s my rebuttal. Let me know if I could have done more, guys. Oh, and happy Chanukah (for those who waste good money on candles)!

“Sorry guys, I was out

@Rivka

Rivka: “Sorry guys, I was out drinking, lol! Okay, cool, Rat Spit, mazal tov, you hear voices!”

I hear one voice occasionally.

Rivka: “At least I’m not the one who’s schizophrenic (ouch).”

No, no, no. I’m not offended. Let me educate you. 4% of the population admit to hearing a voice in their head whom they don’t identify with. Of that 4%, 1% finds it too disruptive for their life style and thus they seek help (acquiring the schizophrenic label, and so on). The other 3% confirm that the voice (or voices) are even helpful; they lead normal lives. I belong to the 3%.

Rivka: “So where does this... “Overlord” come from? What’s his name, oh, and excuse me, I’m sure he’s a guy, right?”

The better question is “where does He not come from?” He is everywhere.

You’re excused and He generally portrays Himself as a male but He has absolutely zero qualms parading around as a Female. The name is “Mara”.

Rivka: “Did he appear to you in a dream? Or did you see him in plain day? It makes a difference.”

Plain day. Please tell me the difference.

Rivka: “And you’re a pretheist what? It does sound pretty, I admit. And by the way, I’d love to know how you can see all these mistakes in every cult, “

A “pretheist” is a word I made up. I don’t belong to or head a cult - nor would I ever dream of doing so, however carry on...

Rivka: “because I think man made laws against women for power, not because some Santa up in the clouds told them so.”

So, you’re a feminist. Good for you. So is my wife. So am I. The OverLord does not have a preference for either sex. He affects individuals at a rate of 4% per 100% of the population.

Rivka: “I mean, I’ll be honest here, I’m a little atheist who accepts that she doesn’t know everything, but I guess you don’t seem to have a problem with that, do you?”

Hmm. Weird character assassination technique - I have to admit. I don’t know where you inferred any such thing. I know a little more than the average person.

Rivka: “So Rat Spit, do you also believe in fairies? As a kid, I used to, but I grew out of that one.”

If by fairies, you are referring to ghosts and tree sprites - then no. I mean “yes”, yes I do. Amazing creatures. But we’re talking about the OverLord aren’t we?

Rivka: “That’s my rebuttal. Let me know if I could have done more, guys. Oh, and happy Chanukah (for those who waste good money on candles)!”

A little patronizing and a few straw men in there - but you gave me pause for moment.

Your best point was that I’m delusional and therefore incredible - non-rational. Okay. Fair enough. A question for you.

Do you not also hear a voice in your head? And do you not also hear music in your head from time to time?

And how would you say the voice in my head differs from the one in yours?

Fucing Rat Spit can't count.

Fucing Rat Spit can't count. It's one of the side effects of living in a hole in the wall and being home schooled. "A question for you." He actually had three but we let him get away with the small stuff. No one wants to be too hard on the little hamster.

Awesome! Thanks for the reply

Awesome! Thanks for the reply! So you do hear a voice? Like, really? 3% is pretty small, if you ask me; in fact, smaller than the entire Jewish population (it’s 0.16% for those who care, ya, you got it, we need more sex). Being you’re part of a 3% label, which isn’t normal by the way, I can safely assume you have a mental condition. That’s not good, Rat Spit, that’s like very, very bad. When I have a child someday, and if he or she’s in that 3% range, we’re seeing a doctor right away.

So, this guy, this god of your’s with the white beatd - not sexy, gross - is everywhere? You mean he’s in ISIS, Trump, and all the evil out there? If he’s everywhere, he’s everything, am
I wrong? He’s even in front of me? Because I don’t see him, I see my puppy :)

Oh, and you even know his or her name! What a revelation! My father’s name is Shmule, he’s my god. See, I know his name, too. And at least I can see him by my real eyes. My puppy’s eyes look more believable than your god’s. Also, Rat Spit, it does make a difference whether you see a god in plain day: when it’s dark, you could reassure yourself that your eyes were just playing tricks on you. In plain day, well then, you’re just shitting me - opps! That just spilled out!

I also make up words with no meaning, ever heard of indramater? What about bobtilda? Or mekenzika? Do you know what they mean? They all mean I’m crying my eyes out.

So god creates us all, male and femal, with no preference, but then only bothers with 4% of the whole human race? That’s true chosen-hood! Sorry guys, we Jews aren’t chosen after all, it’s all the loonies of the world. You break my heart, but I guess you feel special now. Tell me, what do you do to be chosen?

You see, regarding our topic on fairies, people thought long ago that these little fairies in green skirts made the shape of rain droplets, now, today, we know better. Your god exists because he makes you feel better - but he won’t for long. With each discovery, your god is swept further under the rug, until someday, they’ll be no room left for him.

Okay, let me answer your question: my voice is just that - it’s MY f’n voice, not some imaginary freind’s. Yes, I hear music all the time - especially Justin Bieber :) ! - but again, I can tell the difference between my own voice and his, and if I’m alone with my thoughts, wow, I know I’m totally alone! Since there’s no god, this voice in your head is your own, and since you believe it’s god, you’re delusional. In short, who let you out of the asylum?

Alright, I’m done for tonight - yawn - I got to get outside for a breather.

I'm adding the fact that everyone have intrusive thoughts from time to time, is it God talking then? When you have an intrusive thought about killing your own children, is it God talking?

Where the so called star of David originally come from?

I rather was thinking that nobody stole and it all come from the same place long long time ago.
The only thing is that Jews may have lost some pieces along the way.
These guys may think that the original symbol is this.

As each culture reaches the point where they can imprint onto something solid, simple symbols such as squares, triangles, and squares appeared. And for some cultures, the symbols take on significance. This practice has been around thousands of years before Judaism arose.

I do not see anything mysterious about this.

@Alain Re: "Where the so

@Alain Re: "Where the so called star of David originally come from?"

Well, if I had to guess I would say it came from somebody using a compass, a protractor, and a ruler to draw it. Granted, the very first rough draft could have just been roughly sketched in the dirt using a stick. But once it was decided it would make an impressive team logo, it naturally had to be refined and tidied up a bit to help attract any recruits. Obviously, it does not make a very good first impression if you take a potential member over to a bare patch of dirt and point to the ground and say, "See? That is our symbol. Pretty cool, huh?" Especially when that potential new member tells you, "Well, maybe, I suppose. But that other group across town has a cool symbol, too. Sure, it's just a really basic cross thingy, but their members have all sorts of gold and silver jewelry items in the shape of their logo. They wear them everywhere, and it looks pretty spiffy."

Heeeeey.... Ya know what? Now that I think about it, maybe there could be a market for such items.... *scratching chin*.... Yeah, I bet a guy could make a few extra dollars selling that type stuff. Hmmm.....

I have seen that symbol in

I have seen that symbol in many places in India so I guess it started in the Indian subcontinent rather than anywhere else.
From there it is likely that it spread a bit everywhere.
My guess is that the two triangle have a precise meaning.
One is pointing up the other down.
So according to the history related to Shiva one triangle means the effort that you do to perfect yourself and the other is the work you do to help everybody else but I also believe that something is missing in the so called star of David.
I read somewhere that the Jews promise land is in Kashmir.
If that is true then no wonder that the symbol originated in the Indian subcontinent probably from Shiva.

Two penguins were sitting in

Two penguins were sitting in a bathtub. The first penguin, Ralph. said, hey the water is getting cold. The second penguin, David, said, "pass me one of those nachos." The first penguin passed him a nacho and said, "Turn on the hot water." The second penguin turned on the hot water and said, "Hey, pass me another nacho." The second penguin passed the first penguin another naco." "Look!" said the first penguin, holding up the two nachos. "When I do this, they make a star." "Okay" said the first penguin, "Now turn off the hot water." "Hey, look at this!" said the first penguin, smashing the nacho star into the white part of David's chest. "Star of David. Ha ha ha ha ha...." "Pass the soap." Said David.

And that is where the star of David came from. We are all lucky it was not the other way around or it would have been the star of Ralph.
