I saw a bumper sticker once that made me think.

"No god, no fear. Know god, Know fear."
I really dont know if that was a pro-god or anti god statement.
I know many of the hardcore "fire and brimstone" types wish people feared god more than they do now.

who said religions like christianity and islam don't deserve to be bashed anyways? considering their bloody and hateful historys they deserve every slam they can get. i just dont get the whole showing deference thing when it is completely undeserved. it is this expectation of undue deference that leads to stuff like rioting over cartoons.

That line of thinking is exactly why the Palestinians and the Israelis are still shedding each other's blood.

Southpark pretty much spelled it out... Definitely among their best episodes as far as hitting the mark and really pointing out how ridiculous something is.

In some of the teachings Hubbard had intended only for this select group, he claimed that Jesus had never existed, but was implanted in humanity's collective memory by Xenu 75 million years ago, and that Christianity was an "entheta [evil] operation" mounted by beings called Targs (Hubbard, "Electropsychometric Scouting: Battle of the Universes", April 1952).

Xenu (also Xemu) is a galactic ruler (of the "Galactic Confederacy") who, 75 million years ago, brought billions of people to Earth, stacked them around volcanoes and blew them up with hydrogen bombs. Their souls then clustered together and stuck to the bodies of the living, and continue to cause problems today...

Xenu was about to be deposed from power, so he devised a plot to eliminate the excess population from his dominions. With the assistance of "renegades", he defeated the populace and the "Loyal Officers", a force for good that was opposed to Xenu. Then, with the assistance of psychiatrists, he summoned billions of people to paralyse them with injections of alcohol and glycol, under the pretense that they were being called for "income tax inspections". The kidnapped populace was loaded into space planes for transport to the site of extermination, the planet of Teegeeack (Earth). The space planes were exact copies of Douglas DC-8s. (artist rendition of "Space DC-8")
Peter: (Hmmm... I, too, have been on a plane)

Peter: Go on.

Scientologists will be violent some day. For now they stick to lawsuits and harassment, because they are too small to put up a fight. What happens when our culture degrades enough that these goons become more widespread. WW3 is gonna be like Starcraft....minus the sweetness.

Bahhh! WWIII with scientologists?? Gimme a break! Who are they going to scare with those DC-8's?? :p :)

on second thought... maybe the movie "Top Gun" was just a front so that Tom Cruise could get fighter jet training :X
