Singer Cee Lo Green began the year 2012 AD by learning a lesson that those of us who have publicly criticized atheism know very well.
Atheism is primarily an anti-Christian support group.
They believe in things that are not true such as that nothing made everything out of nothing or that some eternal something was acted upon by nothing for no reason and made everything for no purpose.
That life came about when lightning struck a pond (feel free to plum this up with impressive “scientific” sounding language).
That information, such as that in DNA, just sort of happens as it accumulated from a non-informative beginning.
They even believe in mythological creatures such as the crypto-zoological “common ancestor.”
That it is ignorant and superstitious to believe that God made everything out of nothing. But it is rational and scientific to believe that nothing made everything out of nothing.
That it is ignorant and superstitious to believe that God is eternal. But it is rational and scientific to believe that matter is eternal.
That God is an effect and must have had a cause. But that matter is the uncaused first cause.
They ask that if God made everything, then who made God? But believe that matter made everything and nothing made matter.
And on it goes.
In any regard, when you believe in things that are not true, you cannot really live in the real world and so you must patch your worldview with a psychological band-aid. This is why atheists are so far and wide known to be arrogant and angry reactionaries. They mask their falsehoods with emotionally charged statements and reactions. Moreover, since they think that their very, very temporary earthly life is all that there is, they know that at any given moment their existence could come to a full stop end (at least this is what they hope because they hold to the consoling delusion of lack of ultimate accountability). Thus, everything is exaggerated beyond proportion. This is why they take everything as a personal affront—it keeps them busily distracted.
Enter the Cee Lo Green fracas. Green sung John Lennon’s song “Imagine” for a new year event and changed the lyric, “no religion too” into “all religions true.”
This set off a firestorm of atheist emotionalism and set the cyber world aflame as social networks were filled to the brim with angry atheists expressing condemnation and shock at how Cee Lo Green could dare to re-interpret one of their sacred texts, their anthem, in fact.
And some claim that atheism never inspired beautiful music (well, whether it is beautiful is another issue) but from the imitation ivory tower of atheism’s high priests—the cenobite-celebrity atheists—the street atheist, “Imagine” is the stuff of atheist pseudo-gospel music.
From Richard Dawkins to Sam Harris and many, many between, this beloved tune sung the praises of an atheist utopia which would come about after there is no longer any religion, heaven, hell, etc. And, also, no possessions but since the New Atheists make their livings by besmirching things in which they do not believe they are not prepared to go that route. Neither was John Lennon, of course, who chose to keep his mansions whilst urging the street corner hippy to give away his possessions maaaaaaaaan.
Cee Lo Green responded to the barrage of expletive peppered expressions of outrage, including charges of “blasphemy,” by stating:
Yo I meant no disrespect by changing the lyric guys! I was trying to say a world were u could believe what u wanted that’s all.
Well, his lyric change, if offensive at all, is no more nor less offensive than John Lennon’s original lyrics. If anything, it is an offence to logic. Are “all religions true”? Well, of course not. Some of them claim to have no ownership of absolute and exclusive truth and some do.
Atheists believe that they are the more evolved and erudite than thou possessors of this one truth. Look at it this way: break all “religions” down to the category of “worldviews.” Now, many atheists claim that they became atheists upon realizing that the religion of their youth, of their upbringing, of their parents, country, etc. was not the only one. They then logically concluded that they could not all be true. Yet, they then illogically concluded that only atheist possesses the one truth: the absolute, exclusive truth.
This makes them a religion/worldview more dogmatic than just about any other: this is dogmatheism.
This just goes not show that many atheists do not want people to “believe what u wanted” but only that which they approve: atheism.
This event did not escape the notice of atheists of the Dawkinsian sect as they sought to ensure that all social networks were tied together in a flurry of atheist conniptions. Here are three mere examples of their networking:
I am happy to say that Cee Lo Green (whoever he may be) is getting crucified by the commenters on YouTube too…
Cee Lo Green is taking a bashing on his own Facebook fan page....he going to regret this major 'faux pas' [ellipses in original]
And the cake goes to:
And so it begins- in the not too distant future the religious will have persuaded the rest of the world those ARE the true lyrics. No disrespect "See Hoe Green"
This is no less than reactionary and juvenile. As if by changing a few words, history could be re-written.
It is not in the least bit surprising, and yet fascinating, to see just how many atheists have extremely thin skin, literally run on emotions and functions as if they were adherents of a cult of personality hero worshipping cult.
Just look around the web at comment on this non-issue and you will get the picture. Dare to say anything critical of atheism and you will experience it first hand.
Everything is not a personal affront so stop worrying about it and enjoy your lives.
Wonder when someone will get sued for saying, “God bless you” after an atheist sneezes.
