Why Deism? I knew I was a Deist.

 

How I Became a Deist

by Betty Roark

I have known all of my adult life that I was different from my family members, friends, and work associates regarding religion.  I have not been baptized.  I never experienced the feeling that most people relate about their experience when they were so called "saved".  I thought that I was odd and that something was wrong with me.
 
This is how I was introduced to Deism.  Less than one year ago, my boss approached me with a newspaper article from the Nashville Tennessean.  The headlines of the article had the term Deist in it.  He asked me if I knew what Deist means.  I immediately went into the search engine on my computer and a wealth of information opened up to me.  As I read I knew that I was a Deist.  I haven't stopped reading yet.  I am a happier person, I am at peace with myself, and I am thankful for the day that my Boss posed that question to me.  I read all of your E-mails.  I check every day for new ones.  I forward most of them to a friend who is struggling between Deism and Revealed Religion.

Both Democratic candidates promote the nonsense of the Bible!
Hilary Clinton says, "I think the whole Bible is real." So she believes in the talking donkey (Numbers 22:28), that any nation that will not serve Israel should "be utterly wasted" (Isaiah 60:10-12), among many other ridiculous claims! Based on the blank check both Democratic and Republican politicians give to Israel, it appears they're all strong believers in the Hebrew Bible!

Barack Obama gave a speech in which he used the genocidal maniacs, Moses and Joshua, as great examples to be followed! It's pathetic and dangerous when in this nuclear age politicians still cling to the insanity found in the Bible, Torah and Koran! Here are just two examples to demonstrate that Moses and Joshua were murderous butchers. Deuteronomy 2:34 in which Moses brags about killing "men, women and the little ones", and Joshua 6:21 which says the Hebrews "utterly destroyed all that was in the city, both man and woman, young and old, and ox, and sheep, and ass, with the edge of the sword."  How Obama can think this is good is beyond reason!
At least 50 people were blinded due to religious superstition!
50 people who believed there was an image of the fictional virgin Mary on the sun were blinded due to looking directly at the sun while trying to see the image! Our God-given reason is the only thing that will protect us from such ignorance and superstition - if we decide to use it!
