Saturday Night For The Freethinker Christopher Hitchens

“THE VALUE OF HETERODOXY”

Saturday Night for the freethinker libre pensamiento Christopher Hitchens Atheism Ateos Philosophy Dra Martha Andrea Castro Noriega Tijuana Mexico

‘It matters not what you think,’ Hitchens wrote, ‘but how you think.’ Many assume Hitchens was such a pugnacious debater and polemicist because he was temperamentally inclined toward rhetorical combat. As Amis put it: ‘He likes the battle, the argument, the smell of cordite.’ This is true, but another source of Hitchens’s ferocity in print and on the stage was the fact that his positions were natural extensions of his core principles. It is easier to hold and defend a controversial position when you have internally coherent reasons for doing so.

What you think – or at least what you purport to think – tends to matter more than how you think these days. The best path toward a lucrative career as a political or cultural commentator is the development of a brand that serves a particular set of information consumers. There are plenty of fiery pundits and Twitter warriors out there today, but how many reliably outrage and alienate their own ‘side’? How many are willing to publish an article or a podcast that will result in a loss of followers and prestige within the group?

Saturday Night For The Free Thinkers

Why aren’t most people free thinkers?

Because people like structure and to think within a structure. Free thinking is therefore outside the norm, which can bring on isolation or criticism, or misunderstanding. Most people don’t want to be different from others, even if free thinking is probably good for progress overall.

Saturday For The Freethinker The Ugly People With Defects And God

The ugly and people with defects have no business with God. Beware before you go to church or temple. Make sure you are pretty and with no defects at all, OK?

Levítico 21:17–24 “For the generations to come none of your descendants who has a defect may come near to offer the food of his God. 18 No man who has any defect may come near: no man who is blind or lame, disfigured or deformed; 19 no man with a crippled foot or hand, 20 or who is a hunchback or a dwarf, or who has any eye defect, or who has to fester or running sores or damaged testicles.” 

COMMENTARY: Isn´t it said in the bible that god made all humanity in his image? So, he is beautiful then. And who made the ugly and the people with defects, born or gotten during life? Another of the thousands of contradictions of the bible.

IT IS NOT FAIR THAT GOD MADE SOME PEOPLE INCREDIBLY BEAUTIFUL AND OTHERS JUST AVERAGE OR UGLY … LOL

I Believe In Evidence

“Don’t you believe in anything?” Isaac Asimov said, “I believe in evidence. I believe in observation, measurement, and reasoning, confirmed by independent observers”.

“Organized” religion, “des-organized” religion: sects and cults, have been created by humans throughout millennia. As humans evolved from small hunter-gatherer tribes into large agrarian cultures, our ancestors needed to encourage cooperation and tolerance among relative strangers. Religion then—along with the belief in a moralizing God—was a cultural adaptation to these challenges.

Anything Goes On Sunday: Closed Minded People Are Not Truthful

Close minded people are not truthful, because being “right” is more important to them, no matter what.

And I don´t care if they are religious, irreligious, theist, atheist, or what ever. Unfortunately closed minded people come in many labels, believers and non-beliviers, etc, etc, etc. Human condition?

Saturday Night For The Freethinker: Hypocrisy

I am so tired and fed up with religion today, every day, but especially today. All the hate religion causes is wrapped with hypocrisy.

Saturday Night For The Freethinker 4 Signs You Are Born A Freethinker Part 2

1. You are brilliant and NEVER STOP asking WHY

2. You are the pope of your own life:  As a free-thinker, you live by your own set of rules, and NO ONE,  not even your beloved mother, can tell you to live otherwise. You came by your beliefs through your own experience and curiosity. You tested them and they stood up to your tests. It’s impossible for you to kowtow to religious or secular bylaws created to control people.

3. You understand that there are many ways to see the world

4. You have fun! Free-thinkers don’t take things too seriously when they don’t have to. It’s fun to wrap your head around new ideas. It’s fun to try new things. It’s fun to eat new foods. Life is full of adventures and free thinkers are up for the adventure.

Saturday Night For The Free Thinker: You Do Not Need Religion To Have Morals

If you can’t be a good human being without God and the fear of hell, I got news for you. You’re not a good person. And worse, if you cannot define what good is without him, you’re not a Christian, you’re a sociopath.—By Dani Daugan

Religion, Morals Dra Martha Castro Noriega Mexico Tijuana California USA

Religion does not determine your morality
