Where Is Your God?

Reason without faith.

Made In Heaven

Posted by Brandon On November - 3 - 2008

After a long hiatus I have returned. Let’s jump right into it then…

I have to really stop saying things to the effect of “Oh man, can religious people get any more delusional?” or “Wow, can they really believe that?” because I am quite honestly running out of things to say.

Todays topic is about a little protein called laminin. Laminin is a protein that basically help “hold” our cells together. Why is this such a fascinating subject you might ask? Because religious people have once again taken something natural and given it a supernatural meaning. Let’s take a look at the text book diagram of this substance:

Yes, I’m sure you can already guess. When Christians see something resembling a cross you can always expect them to explain it with a slight bias (aka god). They believe that this is akin to the “made in Taiwan” you see printed on the bottom of man made objects. It wasn’t enough that god created us but he had to stamp us too. Sounds a tad bit vain don’t you think?

I won’t even get into the actual origins of the cross because honestly I want to write this article and leave as quickly as possible without having the utter ignorance of religion to ruin what’s left of my day.

So we saw the textbook image of what laminin looks like. Let’s look at an actual image of this god-molecule:

That’s starting to look not so much like a cross but apparently this matters little to people with faith. So, Christians believe that god must exist because one of many molecules inside our body sort of looks like a squiggly cross. This made me laugh so hard that I thought this video of Louie Giglio talking about Laminin was a joke:

There’s not much to really say as far as refuting this. All I can really do is point out that just because you see a molecule inside us that vaguely resembles a pagan symbol representing the cardinal directions doesn’t mean that your god exists.

Now I want you to take a look at this next photo. It’s a picture of a distant galaxy:

So you can see where this is going. Christians are trying to say the evidence of god exists everywhere from the outer reaches of our universe to the smallest particles in our body. This sort of reasoning is so illogical, so ridiculous that it makes me unsure if I even should continue to post on a site like this. Aren’t we past seeing mystical representations in nature? Laminin is a flexible protein and it’s arms can fold into a multitude of configurations. Not to mention the Christian cross is simply two perpendicular lines. You’re bound to find two lines in nature somewhere if you look hard enough. And thats really what this sort of logic is. Christians don’t approach science skeptically. They don’t question themselves or what they believe and already have the answer. They simply try to mold reality to fit their desires and justify their mystic beliefs.

I think the best way to finish this article is with another “Wow, can they really believe that?”

    Christ sakes…. A 4 year old could shoot that down with the ‘chicken or the egg’ argument.

    I wonder what came first? The Laminin Protein or the guy on the cross…

    I would say that I find it difficult to believe that people could even give that a second thought, but I guess I would be wrong. The audience was in awe of this great intellectual. Sad.

  2. soccerfreak67890 Said,

    Man, one of the main things that you’re trying to promote is for christians to learn about their opposition before they argue against it and then Bob Banderball just comes in and does the exact same thing you accuse christians of doing, but no one cares about that because he’s on your “side.” According to christian theology, God planned everything even before the creation of the world. So technically, the guy on the cross came before the laminin protein. Just thought I’d let you know
