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?

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.

“This got me thinking – if there are things inside us too tiny to see, might there be things outside us too big to believe?” ― Rene Denfeld

MY ANSWER: Could be. If so, I wish there was a Stargate device somewhere out there.

Saturday Night For The Freethinker: A Very Smart Child

Yes, a very smart child has reasons to choose science over religion. Choosing freedom from religion liberates the mind, and has the great potential of making the individual a very happy human being. Nothing is better than living a life free of fear of punishment and hell, free from the constant control of people who praise fairies, leaves a great space in our minds for knowledge and everyday evolution of our mental capacities and real-sincere compassion for humanity.

Saturday Night For The Freethinker: Logic Is Wisdom

It is so much easier to use logic than being absurd. I have no idea how illogical people manage their “entangled” thoughts. It must be very confusing and painful for their minds.

When religious fanatics approach me to try to “accept” their god or religion, I just walk away. Do not talk to them. They have an illogical mind. They will never reason. My time is precious.

If we all used logic more often…

Right now, I think everybody knows, that there are two main global crisis: health and financial, and it is exactly in these times when people tend to become even more religious than before the crisis.

That is a fact which has been proven through out the history of the world for hundreds of years. You can see a quote here The crisis has helped fuel the increasing religiosity in the country

Saturday Night For The Freethinker: The Hypocrisy In Religion Part 2

atheist agnostic religion god dr martha castro noriega mexico america california

I absolutely despise the hypocrisy in religion. I was raised Catholic then Methodist and I was always taught “Judge not lest ye be judged”, “Love thy neighbor as thyself”, and “Do unto others as they would have done unto you.” So, what exactly have I witnessed in Christianity? None of it!

atheist agnostic religion god dr martha castro noriega mexico america california

You can’t just call yourself a “Good Christian” and then discriminate against different groups of people. If there was really a God, why are very good people dying of terrible diseases like cancer? Why are so many people across the globe living in poverty? Why is there always fighting? Why is there no world peace?

atheist agnostic religion god dr martha castro noriega mexico america california

It’s not okay to go up to someone and say “If you don’t accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, you are going to Hell.” Everyone is entitled to have their own beliefs and people need to respect that. Also, there are over 4000 different religions throughout the world, so how can anyone assume that their religion is right and everyone else is wrong?
