I went but once to see a stripper &, lucky me, she was petite, with nice breasts, not the pneumatic kind, and she was delightfully barefoot. Complaints over a new Brisbane strip club. The only complaint I have is that strippers too often spoil the effect by wearing stupid heels. European Court Human Rights stands by the human rights of a monster who would take away all of our human rights if he could. American should know - many of us here in Australia were disgusted at the pathetic actions of our judicial system in relation to Mr Watson. Julia and Tony - still living in the Dark Ages as regards the right of gays to marry like anyone else. The same human rights for all! It is long past the time when the Australian state and federal parliaments rid themselves of superstitious prayer recitals. Good riddance to the unjustified and superstitious practice of praying at Bideford Town Council meetings. Congratulations to Clive Bone. Now we know why China voted against the Syrian people's aspirations; they are coping with rebellion in the conquered territory of Tibet. In Indonesia Alexander Aan was arrested for posting Facebook comment: 'God does not exist'. He could be jailed for simply telling the truth! 'Reform minded' Indonesia paints a glowing picture of being a modern progressive society in its Bloomberg ads but censors the Internet. Shame on Campbell Newman for currying favour with the fascist attitude of the Christian lobbyists attacking gay relationships in Queensland. Who do so many Christians & Islamics want to control other people, forcing their moral codes on the rest of us? Weird aberration! Did the good 'God' look on benignly as Josh Powell hacked away at his little boys? California's oppressive law against same-sex marriage ruled unconstitutional. Polygamy fight in the USA: People should have right to multiple partners if they wish just as same-sex couples should be allowed to marry. I'm tired of hearing about the Olympic Games on pay-TV. Surely anyone interested in boring sport will be getting the sports channels anyway. The decline of religion (and good riddance!): The Vatican bans birth control but 98 percent of American Catholics use it. My views on nakedness: http://www.piperpost.net/tracts-14.htm Dopey Americans with their female breast hangup! Aust women protest Facebook ban on photos of healthy natural activity of breastfeeding. How come the Catholic Church, a body founded on lies (see: http://www.piperpost.net/3-FirstChristians.htm), can dictate to people in the 21st century? Conservatives don't want people to practice birth control; they would rather obey the Catholic Church, a body founded on lies. Polly Toynbee of The Guardian on the Republican candidates: 'What a delightful parade of fruitcakes & nutters!' (BBC 'Dateline' program). Religions with doctrinal opposition to contraception are contributing to the coming miserably overpopulated underfed and water-short world. Story of the Armenian Genocide: http://www.piperpost.net/writings-armenia.htm (Extracted from my Encyclopedia of Human Cruelty). Hey Turkey! However you try to spin the story, your cruel slaughter of Armenians early in the 20th century was genocide. Own up! Re US election: titles 'Evangelical' 'Mormon' and 'Catholic' are codewords for 'superstitious'. Religion is superstition; it has no reality. More superstition over cadavers as India sends wartime Japanese remains back to Japan. There is nothing of YOU left, folks, when you die! Is the US Congress trying to catch up with China in censoring the Internet? Kevin Rudd 'appreciated leniency granted by Saudi Arabia' re flogging Australian citizen. Shame Rudd! You should denounce the Saudis. The joy of Islam: Go on the Haj pilgrimage like Australian citizen Mansor Almaribe and get flogged for your trouble! Governor Barbour imposes his religion on the victims of crime. It is not for you to forgive, Governor, it is only a matter for the victims. Pope says gay marriage threatens humanity's future. Catholics banning contraception threaten humanity's future more - from overpopulation. I do not understand why people replay bad events, eg Queensland's big flood, stirring up unhappy memories. Especially bad for kids. Move on! My past tweets will be found here: http://www.piperpost.net/tweets.htm. You'll soon discover my views on religion, morals & current affairs. The Republican presidential candidates have one thing in common - they are all godbotherers, minds unfree, poisoned by the virus of belief. Memo to Mr Tebow: Matthew 6:5. (Like I've said before; I know more of the Bible than many Christians.) Sydney Morning Herald reports many churchgoers don't believe in basic tenets of their faith. Google: CHURCHGOERS KEEN TAKE PEW DISBELIEF. Anwar wins alleged 'sodomy' case. Anal intercourse shouldn't be stigmatized with this pejorative term; another black mark against religion. If the US ever elects a President Santorum it will be a grim day for human rights in the USA - especially those of women and gays. Watched a pastor suing another pastor in People's Court. Are they unaware of I Cor. 6: 6-7? (I know more of the Bible than many Christians.) The Arab League observers in Syria - big con job. A spectacle effectively demonstrating the hollow claims of religion - two Christian groups physically battling one another in Bethlehem. More silly breastfeeding nonsense - this time at a US Target store. Beyond me why anyone finds breastfeeding a baby in public offensive. The best current comedy show (and it's free): the scenes showing North Koreans mock mourning the dead tyrant. We are told religion benefits mankind but everywhere we look we see too many religious people engaged in violence to further their ends. Evil religion - Orthodox Jews persecute women and girls in Israel. And the persecutors are multiplying as they don't practise birth control. Re latest Iraq trouble, Republicans blame Obama administration for withdrawing 'too soon'. But the real blame lies with the people of Iraq. After the illegal invasion of Iraq and all the blood sweat and tears the country has resumed its usual course. We shouldn't be surprised. Two funerals but how different their legacies: Vaclav Havel led his people to freedom, Kim Jong-il cemented his people's enslavement. I notice many full-page liquor ads in Sydney Morn. Herald; in one issue 3 full page together. Is this what they call the Christmas Spirit? If I were an American I wouldn't vote for conservatives but at least one candidate is worth listening to - the very sane Ron Paul. Christopher Hitchens has died. A great loss to the world, a warm, wonderful human being, a breath of sanity amidst so much that was insane. Italy may tax Catholic property. About time Australia levied rates & taxes on churches with exemptions for genuine charitable offshoots. Physicists closing in on the ultimate secrets of existence. But they have found no evidence of 'god' back at the beginning of all things. China and Russia are culpable in the slaughter of Syrian citizens by their oppressive government. The usual outbreak of debate in the USA over Christmas celebrations. See my view: The Truth About Christmas - http://www.piperpost.net/tracts-04.htm Yes, Michelle Bachman, the little boy is right, gay people do not need 'fixing' - an inhumane and absurd idea some Christians perpetuate. Nice to hear Hillary Clinton speaking on behalf of gays who are still being persecuted by the agents of darkness in some countries. Is Jesus playing American football? Some well-known player seems to keep talking to him on the field. Or maybe he is hallucinating As Australia & other places move into the 21st century on issues like gay marriage Nigeria has opted to remain a backward primitive society. If moral issues are matters of conscience all Australians should get a vote in a Referendum, not just a few parliamentarians. Congrats Australian Labor Party supporting gay marriage. But the conscience vote should embrace all Australians, not just parliamentarians. I didn't believe my religion-soaked state of Qld would do it - pass legislation to allow for same-sex civil unions. Next stop full marriage? An appalling view of the UK press emerges from investigations centering on the Murdoch (mainly) and other press hacking & hounding people. Congratulations to Julia Gillard for another win against Tony Abbott and his Australian Tea Party. Use of the word 'bitch' to describe Michelle Bachman, a Conservative, is outrageous as is its use to describe our Labor PM, Julia Gillard. Congratulations to Australian Gillard Labor Government, with the help of the independents, for standing up to the greedy billionaire miners. Watching President Obama visiting Australia I'm proud to see him being greeted by a female Governor-general and a female Prime Minister Only one good reason to remain in Afghanistan - for the sake of the women and girls who will suffer awful oppression under the Taliban scum. Good riddance to those silly shirts the leaders wore at APEC meetings. Too often they looked ridiculous. And they wasted public money. My piperpost.net website has a new expanded format. Now incorporates my Felicity Books business. And lots more! The people of Mississippi had the good sense to vote against the silly 'personhood' Proposition. At least some did. Why does Fox think its overseas viewers want to watch Pastor Joel Osteen babbling on about the Christian superstition? Several repeats too! Congratulations Julia Gillard & Labor Govt. Carbon tax, mining tax, plain packs cigarettes, limiting pokies - all good. Gay marriage next? As Qld debates gay marriage we have usual religious opponents wanting to impose their morality on everyone else. How about some tolerance? Christian moralizers opposing gay marriage should act morally & have their churches stop the rip-off of the community & pay rates and taxes. The US Republican presidential candidates all seem to want to control women's reproduction rights. How dare they! Sorry Bill O'Reilly. People don't get their 'just desserts' - as you claim - in the next life because there is no next life. Let's hope true democracy flourishes in a liberated Libya, especially for women. Obedient Wives Club of Malaysia issues book to help Muslim women pleasure husbands. Suggests: they can have sex with all wives at same time. Rick Perry persecuted for being a Christian? I thought Christians welcomed both persecution and even martyrdom. Doubtless some of the Iranian clerics will get their jollies watching actress Marzieh Vafamehr getting a 90-lash whipping. Could anything be more appalling than the way American Evangelicals brainwash little kids to become preachers? Ignorance breeding ignorance. Religion rears it ugly head in US elections. Some say the cult of Mormonism is bad but the cult of Evangelicalism is every bit as bad. Religion spews forth more of its evil in Egypt. Thank you Steve Jobs for the 21 years I've enjoyed Mac computers since I bought my first one and now for my iPhone. Australia moves to protect 16-year-old girl from a forced marriage to a Lebanese man she had met only once. Alabama police chief offers first-time offenders: jail or church. Unconstitutional way to recruit more members. ACLU on the issue. Anwar al-Awlaki sent to meet up with the heavenly virgins - and good riddance to another evil creature. Pity he won't know how wrong he was! Birthday wishes to PM Julia Gillard, an atheist doing an excellent job. Religion has nothing worth contributing to the country's wellbeing. Someone who believes the primitive fairy story of the book of Genesis is intellectually unfit for the office of President of the USA. Good riddance to at least some Spanish bullfighting. Get rid of it all. And in another part of the world - get rid of bear-baiting. Saudi women to get tiny improvement in their situation - 500 years too late! South Africa denies its human rights heritage and appoints superstitious nitwit chief justice who will persecute gays. Tony's Tea Party is wrong about Ms Gillard. Australia's worst recent PM was John Howard: GST, greatly increased religious influence & Iraq. Catholic Church still covering up sex abuse. Australia's Salesians of Don Bosco order reported in SMH to have suppressed abuse report. Memo to Michelle Bachman. The idea that 'God' punishes with natural disasters is a primitive belief. Memo to Bill O'Reilly. Transubstantiation is a ridiculous superstition. The Popes claim Peter founded the Church, whereas it was really Paul - see my book - www.piperpost.net/Key-04.htm The Borgias TV series has just started on local TV. A nice reminder of the perfidy of so many of the Popes. Congratulations to Mayor Bloomberg for keeping religious leaders away from the 9/11 commemoration ceremonies. Religion inspired 9/11. Question for believers: Does the good 'God' experience pleasure as he watches small children burning to death in a house fire? When I hold an iPhone in my hand I hold a powerful multi-use computer. Clever humans developed this marvel, no gods were needed! Thanks to Steve Jobs and Apple for the 21 years I've enjoyed using the insanely great Macs and, lately, an iPhone. Another battle for end-of-life sanity in the UK. About time lily-livered politicians acted for the majority and not to please the church. Shame on the Australian government if they allow the biassed Murdoch press to take over the country's external broadcasting service. Tony Abbot leading a protest on govt climate change policy. I'm registering my protest against Tony Abbott and his Tea Party. The Australian Youth Climate Coalition makes more sense than Tony Abbott's Tea Party. Shame on Australia's very own Tea Party - led by Tony Abbott - for supporting Big Tobacco. Spanish people objecting to paying for Catholic Church advertising campaign called Youth 'Day'. Australian taxpayers were ripped off too! Another World Youth 'Day' to promote Catholic Church at expense of the Spanish people. They ran one in Australia. Desperate dying church! Western nations should stop sending aid funds to countries like Ghana where homosexuals are persecuted and potentially prosecuted. Kanon Tipton - another brainwashed kid preaching nonsense passed on by his parents. He can't possibly know what he's talking about at age 4. Police stand by for possible alcohol-fuelled violence at rugby match betwn Sydney Catholic schools St Ignatius & St Josephs. Christian love? Much of the 'history' of Marco Polo may be fantasy. See London Telegraph story. Cobbled together like much of the 'history' of Jesus. Considering there are many millions of praying people in the nation the USA is sure having a hell of a time. Doesn't say much for prayer! Michelle Bachman dodged the question about being submissive to her husband if she were elected President. Intellectually dishonest! Rick Santorum thinks raped women should be forced to bring to term unwanted babies. Hopefully such a monster will never become US President. In his opposition to ethics classes Fred Nile asserts ethics = nazism. Memo to Fred: The centre of Nazism was in Catholic Bavaria. Australian High Court challenge to govt-sponsored chaplaincy program. Hopefully this religious intrusion will be kicked out of the schools. More joy of religion - boys and girls having a water fight fun in Iran arrested. What sort of lowlife sets a cruel trap to grab a beautiful possum? We should have an equivalent giant trap to use on them as punishment! Religious superstition in the home is bad enough but children in schools shouldn't be brainwashed with the fantasies of faith. Shame on NSW gov bowing to pressure from Fred Nile and moving against ethics classes. Just shows - neither the gov nor Nile have any ethics! Alan Jones plus 'Lord' Monckton plus Tony Abbott. What an unholy alliance! Poor Sydney Anglicans probably can't afford bananas. They are reportedly running out of money. Obviously not praying enough! Memo to Aussie Reserve Bank: I can do without bananas so why should I pay more interest because some people want to eat expensive bananas? 'God' seems to hate tall women! Google 'Dr Jane Green of Oxford' for the proof. Irish PM Enda Kenny speaks out against the failure of the Church of Rome hierarchy to see pedophile priests prosecuted. Congratulations PM! Year after year the Protestants of Northern Ireland provoke Catholics with their silly marches. They are at it again this year. Funny how the Catholic Church manages to overlook someone fathering illegitimate children when it suits them, e.g. Prince Albert of Monaco. Fox News running item about supposed apparition of Virgin Mary in Wisconsin. Is a TV channel publishing such nonsense credible? Shame on the Australian govt giving into the cattle barons. ALL live cattle exports should be stopped. I hear there is a dating site for Christians - Christian Mingle. How strange - I thought 'God' brought the right one along. Too many American states limiting women's reproduction rights according to NYT. Religion tightens its grip on people's minds. San Francisco banning sale of pet animals. About time Australia examined the situation with puppy mills and pet shops selling to anyone. New York allows gay couple of marry. Progress marches on! About time Australia acted to extend this right to our gays. Irish govt announces inquiry into abuses at Magdalene laundries. On top of earlier investigations of widespread Catholic abuses. 9-yr-old Pakistani girl forced to wear suicide vest. That says volumes about the bestial nature of religious cranks who claim to be Islamic. Can't believe many booksellers in Britain don't want to see cheques scrapped. Good riddance, I say. I wish none of my clients used cheques. I take back an earlier comment about the Dali Lama. Mike Carlton has convinced me he is not worthy of support. Thanks Mike! Protestants and Catholics fighting again in Ireland, raising once more the question: What good is religion? Queensland controversy over young girls kickboxing. But at least they are nicely barefoot! TV1 keeps saying Jennifer Beals is 'dancing only as she can' in movie Flashdance but they are wrong. Dancing mostly done by Marine Jahan. Good news Queensland Labor Party supporting same-sex marriage. Now they need to persuade their unprogressive federal colleagues. Shame on Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard for kowtowing to the Chinese bully boys and not meeting the Dalai Lama. If Qld authorities are worrying about space for graves why not give up this silly business of buying bodies and cremate everyone? Queensland plan to reuse graves sparks superstitious outburst. Nobody there, folks! There is no life after death, we are just chemicals. The era of blamism - blame anything but your own failings, and now the Roman Church blames Woodstock for their child-abusing priests. Good to see slutwalks occurring in Australia and other countries. How dare someone try to blame women's dress for male rapists' behaviour. Pope visits Croatia, WW2 home of Archbishop Stepinac and the infamous Ustashi, a vicious political group with strong Catholic ties. Angela Hildebrand wins right to spread the memes of religious superstition to her fellow students in a public forum. Vale Jack Kevorkian, a great humanitarian who helped pain-wracked people achieve a peaceful end. Shame on Australian government sending unaccompanied child illegals to that moral backwater Malaysia where anything might happen to them. Malta is making progress on human rights, voting against the Church on divorce. They should now enact legislation to free their people. Shame on American congressmen who are trying to influence Australia in the plan to have cigarettes sold in plain packaging. Shame on the Australian National and Liberal parties for taking money from Big Tobacco. Shame on Australian National Party MP Bob Katter for supporting live animal exports to Indonesia. If you care, sign GetUp! online petition. At last someone is revealing the cruelty of Islamic methods of killing animals for meat. Australia must ban live animal exports to Indonesia! Good news for children's rights - Californian vote on the abusive procedure of circumcision of baby boys. Saudi Arabia should make the painful transition from the 13th century and - let women drive, vote and live their lives free of male control. Missouri believer says 'God' saved people in collapsed building. But what about those who died? Did 'God' forget them? It has now passed the witching hour here in Australia - 6pm on 21 May - and it seems like I've missed out on some great photos! Believers in the 21 March fantasy still talk about the Apocalypse as a fact. Read my view: http://www.piperpost.net/12-Endtime.htm The Abbot of Misrule has led his acolytes up a blind alley over climate change. 21 May has arrived in Australia. I wonder whether we will get zapped before the USA. I'm awaiting judgment! Bill O'Reilly says he believes in 'God' because if there is no 'God' it doesn't matter. Each-way bet, Bill? D-day coming tomorrow - 21 May. Dumbo Day. Switzerland continues to allow work of Dignitas helping suffering people commit suicide. Such facilities needed everywhere. Wake up pollies. Neil Cavuto is one of the worst offenders on TV at talking over his guests. Nice to see so many people debunking the prophecy of the End on 21 May. There is some hope sanity will yet prevail over superstition. Neanderthal thinking by Aust Opposition decrying the broadband rollout. Mr Abbot & co - go back to your candlelit caves and your abacuses! Three days only to 21 May! This Atheist is worried sick! Only four days to go to 21 May. Come 22 May and we are still here - I wonder if Robert Fitzpatrick will admit he was wrong. Only five days to go. Keep that camera handy. But will anyone be around to buy the shots? Jewish newspaper leaves women out of picture. At least there is one thing Jews and Muslims have in common - apply the airbrush to women! Aust govt increases funds for school chaplains. Shameful use of public money. There should be no teachers of superstition in public schools. I see an Australian footballer is to be a Mormon missionary - 'God's will' he claims. But how can he know this if 'God' doesn't exist? Julian Assange given Australian Peace Prize for his work with Wikileaks. About time Australian government supported him. Robert Fitzpatrick joins a long line of failed prophets of the End (for he too will fail) - see: http://www.piperpost.net/2-Armageddon.htm After 21 May Robert Fitzpatrick should devote some of his earnings from The Doomsday Code to seeking professional help for his delusions. Latest form of child abuse - botoxing little girls for stupid beauty pageants. To all you superstitious people out there - have a worrying Friday 13th. Fairfax drops TV Guide for Queensland Sydney Morning Herald readers. Sorely missed! Some lame-brained Christians think the so-called Rapture will happen on 21 May. The Rapture isn't even a biblical term! 13-year-old South African lesbian raped by criminal males trying to change her orientation. The South African govt must stop this abuse. Bankruptcy of religion again seen in Egypt where Christians & Muslims engaged in murderous fighting. What good is religion? Aust ABC's Monica Attard asking a lot of silly questions about death of Osama bin Laden. All that really matters is that he is dead, Monica! Aust Human Rights Commsn calls for end to discrimination against and abuse of gay men, lesbians and transgenders. Nice ads for Aero chocolates. Girl floats barefoot above her desk. There is a video of the ad on YouTube. More nonsense re dead bodies: recovered fr air crash. Person no longer exists on death, just chemicals returning to earth fr whence we came. The people who believe President Obama wasn't born in the USA are probably the same people who believe 'God' birthed the world in 6 days. Australia should ban cruel jump horse racing. More religious nonsense. Jehovah's Witness gets artificial blood. When is blood not blood? The press conference - boring way to hear the same information in 20 different ways. Do we assume Catholics run the Citizens Electoral Council of Aust? Their latest diatribe, which quotes Genesis, seems to support his view. Beware Citizens Electoral Council of Aust. They attack the Greens for their support of women's reproduction rights & voluntary euthanasia. A phial of the blood of Pope John Paul 2nd has been kept. As a holy relic? How gross! 'Barely there' fashion photo Syd Herald - lovely but if only they had been barefoot. Why do they spoil undie & swimwear photos with shoes? Good riddance to one of the pests of the world - Osama Bin Laden. At least we know he won't end up in the Paradise he believed in. Alabama declares Day of Prayer. Lot of good that will do to heal the wounds inflicted through natural forces! Catholic Bishop of Toowoomba, Queensland, sacked for expressing support for female ordination & 'rocking the boat' on other matters. Heaps of child abuse swept under Vatican red carpets this past weekend. Prime Minister Julia Gillard - your stance as an atheist and your disregard for traditional marriage are hailed by many of us. Ignore critics. 12-year-old boy Afghan suicide bomber. Poor deluded kid doubtless believed the lies of religion and expects to find himself in Paradise. People who go to church may have higher blood pressure on average than those who don’t. Preachers - what are you doing to your people? Catholic Church up to its old tricks. Create a new saint to drum up some positive press & help people forget all that bad stuff about kids. Murderous Islamic fundamentalists who hate humanity turn their hatred towards a Playboy model. What miserable subhumans these people are. Glen Beck unimpressed with Royal Wedding. My score: Royal Wedding - 10, Beck - 0. Further victory for commonsense - court approves US govt support for embryonic stem cell research. Alabama resident: ‘We prayed & the Lord brought us through it.’ The tornado he sent? The blindness of faith. Nice wedding, pity about the religion. Sorry, Archbishop, marriage was not ordained of God. It evolved as a convenient & faulty institution. China talks on human rights to Australian Prime Minister, Julia Gillard - with forked tongue. Tennessee pastor interferes with rights of woman in lesbian parenting dispute. Allegedly aids abduction of daughter. Charged by authorities. Trump trumped. Teachers in Tennessee may soon need to pretend homosexuality doesn’t exist. Religion closes minds! Franklin Graham doubts origins of President Obama. Personally I doubt the divine origin of Rev Graham’s Jesus. Too often film-TV listings highlight male actors & ignore female. Local Pillars of Earth promo today listed 3 male leads, ignored female. Thailand fussed over bare-breasted teen girls dancing in public. Australia needs to catch up! We’ll lose more tourists to Thailand. Just listed a book on origins superstition on my Felicity Books site. The author seems to miss the biggest superstition of all - religion. Forget differences - business is business: Israeli must love the Christian celebration of Easter with Jerusalem packed with tourists. Unbelievable. German state of Hesse bans dancing during Easter. The holiday celebrates alleged events of dubious historicity. Pope has no answer to 7-year-old Japanese girl’s question on earthquake disaster. Real answer is: natural forces, no deity controls events. News story - Brisbane churches report declining numbers attending Easter services. Good news! Maybe people are waking up to Easter fraud. National Geographic channel program about Vatican - ‘God’s country’ they call it. Are they serious or does Rome run NG? Just discovered some Sydney Catholic clubs have poker machines. Shame on them! Poker machines are a blight on Australian society. Pakistan’s justice system fails women again. Mukhtar Mai sees rapists freed by court. Australia’s censorship laws should be relaxed, not tightened. It is crazy that R-rated movies cannot be seen on parent-locked Pay-TV. Barnett wants to ban ANY movie with full-frontal nudity. Find nakedness confronting, Mr Barnett? And I thought that was an American disease. Christian philistinism at work again, trying to influence Australia’s censorship laws. Senate inquiry instigated by Guy Barnett. Bradley Manning continues to be abused by the Americans. We expected better of you Mr Obama! Andrew Denton screened on Aust TV annual convention National Religious Broadcasters in USA. What a ghastly business it is. People who are cruel to animals disgust me just as much as men who abuse their wives. Kale Falchi to pay $11,000 for running down swan which finally died after extensive efforts to save it. He should have been jailed IMHO. Homophobic Malaysia abusing allegedly ‘effeminate’ boys, forcing them into special camps to cure them of any ‘gay’ tendencies. Sorry Father Morris, your new book is so wrong. Religion’s happiness quotient is heavily outweighed by the miseries it produces. More superstition over skull sold on Aust ebay. A skull is a bunch of chemicals, that is all! Chemicals - all there is of us after death. History Channel doco maker finds nails allegedly used on Jesus. This is the sort of specious rubbish that makes me avoid watching the channel. Good to see successful court action in Sydney over bullying of Jazmine Oyston. Might shake up more schools to tackle the problem. The dark side of Facebook - gay hate campaign allegedly conducted by Australian soldiers. If true the soldiers are disgrace to the uniform. Adding my voice to those raised against mass slaughter pilot whales in the Faroe Islands. Sick people getting pleasure out of animal deaths. Shooters Party gaining strength in NSW, people who disgust me - they like killing animals and want to teach kids the doubtful art. 'The Good Book: A Humanist Bible' stirs up controversy. It won't change my atheism (haven't seen it yet) but is an interesting exercise. Hard to believe Dr G (who I admire) said Grace at table before a TV audience. Only an American would engage in this meaningless charade. White Australians often just as superstitious as Aborigines, believing in virgin birth & dying & rising god among other fantastic notions. Aborigines say 'keeper of the lake' spirit & belief in 'soul of natural objects' means no sailing allowed Lake Eyre. Superstitious nonsense! I heard an Islamic person say the Koran is the book that came down from heaven. Please tell us - what proof do you have? Bet you can't say! Malaysia cannot pretend to be a modern economy when citizens can be prosecuted for having sex in a different manner to so-called 'normal'. The Libyan people shouldn't fall for the con job being foisted on them by Colonel Gaddafi's African mates. World War 1 - beginning of the end of British Empire power. Iraq war - beginning of the end of US power. All empires decline eventually. Congrats Aust Defence Minister Stephen Smith for supporting woman badly treated by despicable male - and by the army itself. Law & Order 18/13 - Angelgrove. Says heaps about idiocy of Christian America. And these people aspire to lead the world? Dear Bill O'Reilly. The weather is not controlled by 'God', sorry to tell you. You must shake off the brainwashing of Catholic education! Censorship battle in Malta, a country under the heel of the Roman Catholic Church. Students protesting censorship of the arts. Glenn Beck to go from Fox. Good news! His show is one I never watched on Fox. He's another godbotherer with views I abhor. Just reading about US Army Spiritual Fitness Test and people sent to see chaplains if they 'fail'. Surely the USA is the Land of the godbotherer! Someone on MSNBC says the Koran is 'directly the word of God'. Sorry, bud, it is not, any more than the Christian Bible is. Fascinating NYT report - US teens attending atheist clubs. Hard in a country where so many people cling to superstitious belief in 'God'. Bondi school wants to drop Easter, Education Dept objects. Good riddance to Easter - based on the lie of Jesus' supposed Resurrection. Aust. Christian schools want full govt funding to help them brainwash children with superstition. Shame on the govt if it succumbs to demand. Aust. school chaplains fail to refer pupils with psychiatric problems to professionals. It was a grave mistake to let them loose on kids. Pastor Terry Jones must be very pleased with himself seeing the mounting death toll in Afghanistan. Latest tot. - 20 dead. Great job Pastor! Hasn't Italian justice anything better to do than run an idiot prosecution over a prostitute's one year age deficit? Aust PM Julia Gillard attacks Greens. But I am inclining more and more to support them as the only progressives. Labor is too conservative. Why have we only learnt now of the burning of the Quran by Pastor Jones? He said he wouldn't. Has the press covered up his stupidity? Over-sensitive Islamics murder in Afghanistan but they were inspired by an over-zealous godbotherer named Pastor Terry Jones. Some UK primary school kids to be taught atheism along with Christian beliefs in religion classes. High time the kids were told the truth! New Tract just published online: Religious fascists and the conscience vote. http://www.piperpost.net/ President Obama says he relies on prayer. He should read my comments on prayer: http://www.piperpost.net/tracts-06.htm South Dakota oppresses women with new law forcing women with pregnancy problems into compulsory counselling. Is this American freedom? Newt Gingrich preaching in church? I have nothing against divorce but I thought the Church did! Christian morality is evidently elastic. Dr Bart Ehrman thinks majority NT documents 'forged'. Their authorship has always been suspect. I've said that for years. www.piperpost.net Saudi Arabia continues to oppress women. Give women a vote. You male oppressors are blind to what is happening all around you. Newspoll conducted for Dying With Dignity reports 85 percent of sensible NSW residents support voluntary euthanasia. Time for govts to act. The Victorian govt is forcing the teaching of the Christian superstition in primary schools. The Humanist Soc of Vic is challenging them. Vale Geraldine Ferraro, a Catholic who supported women's reproduction rights in the face of the onslaughts of the Christian fascists. Apple has wisely removed an offensive app from the iTunes store. Exodus godbotherers & pinheads aimed at 'converting gays to straights'. Debate over 'Sacred Place' in Queensland. There is no such quality as 'sacred' - a term implying a non-physical world that doesn't exist. Middle-aged obesity linked to regular church attendance say researchers. The body gets fatter even as the brain atrophies. 38 percent Americans believe earthquake and tsunami sign of divine judgment. How can the land that gave us iPads be so superstitious? I read of a 'Bible Camp' edition of Survivor. What an appalling idea! I couldn't bring myself to read the details. Too nauseating. What a rabble Australia's alternative government is descending into. Woe betide us if the Mad Monk ever becomes PM. Cardinal Pell for GG? Wall St Journal asks 'Should God care if anyone believes in God?' Irrelevant question about a non-existent entity. Pole dancers doing it for Jesus in Texas. What a pity they are not barefoot, so much nicer. 'How beautiful are the feet...' Am Physical Soc predicts 9 countries incl Australia may experience 'religious extinction' in near future. If only! Superstition is powerful. Aust retailers feuding over Easter. There should be no Easter at all, it is based on the false claims of the NT. Open on 'Good Friday' too! Just heard someone on Fox use the ridiculous phrase 'the Man Upstairs'. If you foolishly believe in 'God' be brave enough to use his name. Australia has been visited by some American godbotherers warning the world will end on 22 May. See: http://www.piperpost.net/12-Endtime.htm What about No-Fly Zones for Bahrain and Yemen? Why only Libya? I have just produced a DVD with 500 of my own photographs called Aussie Kids. Details: http://www.felicity.com.au/aussiekids-promotion.htm New article just posted on my site about child sex abuse in the non-Catholic churches: http://www.piperpost.net/13-Sexabusers.htm The Egyptian 'reforms' seem to have bypassed women - are we surprised? Japan's earthquake reminds us that natural forces rule history not the gods. Another beauty pageant winner bites the dust because she dared to take part in a contest where she bared her body. American silliness again! I like you Megyn Kelly but nude photos of Vanessa Williams were not 'dirty'. The usual American hangups about nudity on display on Fox. What a great example for the USA is Australia's PM, Julia Gillard. A woman, an atheist and someone who lives with a partner. Go Julia! The Pope is praying for Libya. 50 percent chance it will do some good. See my discussion of prayer: http://www.piperpost.net/tracts-06.htm Congratulations Natalie! I was fascinated by her, just a young girl then, in The Professional and have watched her career ever since. Great! Watching TV show re Florence Monster and the bungling police involved makes me think Amanda Knox may well have been jailed unfairly in Italy Mission Australia needs to take the ethics classes the churches oppose. There is nothing ethical in taking govt money and misapplying it. In light of today's events. My favourite old movie - Metropolis. Favorite modern one - V of Vendetta. Both abt rebellion against oppression. Aust govt rejected parallel imports of books by booksellers. Now we are seeing the market reassert itself. Buyers have voted against govt. How can Libya be a member of the Human Rights Commission? What a big joke! And a very nasty one. On Fox they are debating the age of consent. I have long though the age of consent should be 16 for males and females. Mubarak spewing forth a heavy bunch of rhubarb. While Fox allows people like Laura Ingraham on their show they cannot claim to be Fair and Balanced! She's as nutty as Mr Beck. I've added more papers to the Archives on my site, including ones on The Origins of Religion and the End Time. http://www.piperpost.net Pope lambasts PM Berlusconi for allegedly paying for sex with underage girl. What's wrong with the man? Many priests get it free. Re Australia's floods - I can't believe people flock to church to thank the deity for visiting them with such disasters. Faith is so blind! Listeners to ABC (Aust) Newsradio voted Julian Assange Newsmaker of the Year - seven times more votes than the joint second-placed people. The huge crowds supporting Pakistan's ghastly blasphemy law just show once again the evil face of religion. What good is religion to anyone? Shame on Visa for closing the Wikileaks account. This is a legitimate non-profit organization. Were they under orders from the US govt? Shame on Mastercard for closing the Wikileaks account. This is a legitimate non-profit organization. Were they under orders from US govt? Shame on PayPal for closing the Wikileaks account. This is a legitimate non-profit organization. Were they under orders from the US govt? Shame on Bank of America for closing the Wikileaks account. This is a legitimate non-profit organization. Were they under orders from govt? Bank of America, PayPal, Mastercard and Visa now being run to please the CIA? Their actions on Wikileaks are outrageous and surely illegal? Sweden seems to be running Britain's legal system. Just uploaded a new edition of Piper Post with an article in support of Wikileaks. http://www.piperpost.net Shame on PayPal for cutting off Wikileaks. As a PayPal account holder now I wonder - they could cut off anyone's account on a whim. Shame on Visa - they take money for online gambling and from porn sites but not from the human rights organization Wikileaks Shame on Mastercard - they take money for online gambling and from porn sites but not from the human rights organization Wikileaks |
