The Biblical Heaven is a Place of Sadness

-

For those that think that the biblical heaven is a place of bliss, you'd be surprised that you are wrong. Some believers have been trying to mold the picture of heaven into a green paradise, teaming with beautiful animals, both prey and predator. They have made it into a place where people would sit on the grass petting tigers and lions while engaging in pleasant banter with other victorious heaven dwellers. I have seen such images mostly on Jehovah Witness magazines.

But the bible speaks of a different kind of heaven, and a healthy human mind would perceive the boredom and eeriness associated with the kind of existence that the biblical heaven presents, it is actually a sad and boring existence, a thousand times more than the current quarantine.

Here is how heaven would be according to the bible.
Revelation 21:1- says there will be a new heaven ans a new earth which will have no water bodies. Can you imagine a world with no water? The place would be a cube made of pure gold, I think it would be a complete monstrosity. Revelations 21:16 describes the super big cube made of gold for the inhabitants of heaven.

Your memory will be wiped out too once you enter heaven. You will no longer have the recollections of your parents, children and all your loved ones. You will no longer have free will as the bible says sin will not enter heaven. Bible scholars claim that sin is a consequence of free will. Heaven dwellers will worship and serve god for eternity. Think about this.

Cesare Borgia was one of the illegitimate sons of a pope called Alexander V1,he was trained in the church and eventually became the archbishop in his teenage years. He was a tyrannical man. Valiant, fearless and merciless, he ruled with a heavy hand. He was the modern day slay king, but very power hungry.  He was deceitful and very randy, sleeping with many women and engaging in shady deals. It is even suspected that he had sexual escapades with his own sister Lucrezia. He was considered the most handsome  man in Italy and he seemed to know it as he wore the most fashionable clothes.He got syphilis at a youthful age of 20 years. Borgia employed Leonardo Da Vinci as his engineer and military architect. The two had a sexual relationship and Da Vinci, having an artistic soul painted Borgia many times. His handsome face from the paintings was used for centuries as an inspiration to represent Jesus Christ. Christians worshipped and adored his image for a long time. History has re...

Why are Atheists Always So Angry?

-
   Atheists have been long been misunderstood as bitter people. People who went through bitter experiences and are now channeling their anger to "God". We have been told about our mental health being in a poor state. We have been called lost and misguided. These words are by no means polite, they are pretty much accusatory, of ignorance and weakness on our part. Strangely enough, believers don't understand why such comments would put us off. In fact, believers expect atheists to respect every bible verse that springs out of their mouth, they expect atheists to cow when they threaten them with doom, curses and hellfire, to take their words so seriously. I consider this a very poor attitude towards civility. I as an atheist, am angry, at the continuous religious indoctrination of every generation that comes forth. I am angry that I cannot openly proclaim my atheism lest people get a bad image of me, may see me as a byword, may even start alienating me. I am  angry that athe...

Kina the TV series and it's portrayal of atheism

-

   It is heartbreaking that most religious people have the idea that atheism is the symbolism of evil. Most have the tendency to think that atheist minds are under the influence of the lord of the underworld, namely , 'Satan'. It is expected that a non believer of religion  has no conscience to steer him or her away from evil, and that the ability to do good comes from a god. This is quite wrong since we all know that animals such as dogs and elephants have demonstrated acts of kindness despite them not being followers of any religion. That aside, I got a few chances to watch Kina the Kenyan TV series and wasn't much shocked to find out that Nana, the villain in the story is an atheist. In one of the episodes, she opens up about not believing in God. This is quite good evidence that atheism is equated to evil here in Kenya. Believers are likely to label you as a Satan adherent if they find out you are an atheist, despite atheists not believing in the biblical...
