Ignoramus Award: The Shy Anti-Atheist Author
I know, I haven’t given an Ignoramus Award in quite some time because I’ve been too busy, and frankly didn’t have the stomach for it. But today one just fell into my lap. While looking for the week’s fodder I came across a tweeter who was unusually upset about atheism and evolution. Take a look:
Atheism is an unreasonable irrational unscientific naïve simplistic view of the universe. There's nothing scientific in believing nothing
Evolution is a religious point of view. I mean, we never see it (not science) never read about it in the past (need faith) it's atheism, at
Evolution is unproven and unprovable. It's an untenable, unscientific, unreasonable theory based on faulty assumptions.
I am surprised how many people believe in evolution. Evolution is something that needs to be believed in, because the evidence isn't there.
I am working on a project where I'm going to prove humans cannot be more than thousands of years old and simultaneously; evolution is false
It's funny atheists/evolutionists says "DNA proves evolution". LOL. DNA proves ID (intelligent design) DNA proves man was always man.
The fossil record is an embarrassment to the theory of evolution. Fossils appear abrupt, fully formed and complex. Evolution isn't science
You can never see evolution happening, so it can't rightly be considered science. Evolution must simply be believed, since no evidence
So then finally I saw a tweet that began to bring it all together. He’s read a book which has confirmed all his anti-evolution and anti-atheism bias.
Atheist can no longer say “I have no belief”, after this book. They have many beliefs. “No God” is a belief w/ system www.joecienkowski.com
Wait a minute, that web address looks familiar…
New interesting book Atheism is a religion. The title is true. The author proves atheism is a religion by definition www.joecienkowski.com
Oh wait, the tweeter is the author. He must be royalty, he refers to himself in the third person. If you go to the site and click on “books” you’ll see the bargain buy for sale at only $4.99!
Atheism is a Religion: Evolution is their “creation”
Author Joe Cienkowski reveals atheism is a religion, and not ‘no belief’ or lack of belief. Yes, they have gods, a creation story, tenets, adherents, devotion and even ‘churches’. Afterwards, you ask ‘how is atheism NOT a religion’.
Atheism is the fastest growing religion in America.and taught in institutions today. Many are as zealous for their religion as any other
See 20 specific beliefs that must be accepted if there is no God. Plus the 10 commandments based on current worldviews.
You’ll see atheism in a new light. Also, why Dennis Miller declared on Bill O’Reilly ‘atheism is a lachrymose religion’. And, why Michael Newdow said “I don’t want people interfering with my religion”
The author demonstrates atheists are not merely an unbiased, unprejudiced persons with no belief but by defintion they are just as zealous for their ‘faith’
See the natural flowing belief system associated with atheism. Plus, the real reason atheists reject God; none of them scientific
See for 100% sure the world is thousands of years old! How could everyone have overlooked this
Atheism is a Religion may be a principal character of opposition. However, it’s purposefully and vigorously written with caring intent.
Wow, it sounds like an awesome read. But so sad the author is so modest.
Exploding head syndrome or just the Rapture?
Back in November when I had enough spare time to name a weekly Ignoramus Award winner, a blog feature I’d love to bring back, I brought you all JesusIsComingRUReady. If you recall, she was the YouTuber who made videos containing a collage of religious images while she spoke about dreams she was having of the Rapture. Here’s some of her handy work:
I heard a heavenly shofar on May 6,2009!
I came across an article on MSNBC.com on Friday that made me think of her. The article is called Top 10 spooky sleep disorders and mentioned a sleep anomaly called exploding head syndrome:
Okay, exploding head syndrome doesn’t actually involve detonating domes. This creatively named disorder occurs during the onset of deep sleep, when the person is suddenly startled awake by a sharp, loud noise. These noises range from cymbals crashing to explosives going off. To the person hearing them, the explosions seem to originate either from right next to the person’s head or inside the skull itself. There’s no pain involved, and no danger, either. Doctors don’t know what causes exploding head syndrome, but they do know that it isn’t associated with any serious illness.
Sounds like Ms. Shofar Blast may have a bit of a sleep disorder, no?
Ignoramus of the Week: lizarddawg
First we have some more anti-gay ranting…
Then a little kind understanding for either women who have had an abortion…or perhaps women who just prefer a career or birth control to motherhood. It’s a little vague.
There is a little “global warming is a hoax” venting, probably inspired by “climategate”
A little Fox News worship…
Some more crazed right wing politics followed by the typical christian tweeting…
But I think my favorite tweets are the ones where he “quotes” himself…
Congratulations lizarddawg for being the Ignoramus of the Week!

I’d be a atheist if it weren’t for God.Atheism is a non-prophet organization.“Here lies an atheist; all dressed up and no place to go.” Epitaph in Maryland cemeteryI tried atheism for a while, but my faith just wasn’t strong enough.Those who go to Heaven ride on a pass and enter into blessings that they never earned, but all who go to hell pay their own way.–John R. Rice
In case you don’t know what Freethinker means, I’ll give you the definition. This is from Dictionary.com. –noun a person who forms opinions on the basis of reason, independent of authority or tradition, esp. a person whose religious opinions differ from established belief. Freethinker Definition | Definition of Freethinker at Dictionary.com A link to Wikipedia, just in case you want to read a little more then the definition. Freethought – Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaThe thought behind being a freethinker is very admirable. The basic concept of thinking for yourself with independent thought and reason only exhibits images of self expression and freedom. Sadly, people take up the name freethinker for themselves and easily recognize when seen or heard. It isn’t sad that people want to “think freely”. What is sad is that it is a word that has come to be used to control people through the idea of freedom. People open themselves up to an idea that they can think freely. However there are no concepts needed, beyond the basic premise of the idea of freethinking for the idea to work. Go back to the top of this page and read the definition. ” a person who forms opinions on the basis of reason, independent of authority or tradition”You don’t even need to read the entire definition and you got it. You’re freethinking. That should be it but it’s not. Many freethinkers get caught up in the propaganda machine. To see what I mean go to youtube and type in freethinker. http://www.youtube.com/results?searc…rch_type=&aq=f Or do a Google search. You’ll get page after page of people telling you how to be a freethinker.It’s turned into as much of a religion as Christianity or Hinduism, or Buddhism. Bottom line is, if you’re a freethinker, you’re still looking for someone else to do your thinking for you. For example, no freethinker could ever come to the conclusion that a Christian is making their religious choices freely. Simply because we’re in a religion. But the premise of freethinking doesn’t hold a religion against a person. It just ask you to think for yourself. So how could modern day freethinkers come to the conclusion that religion is counter productive? They’ve done so because they’ve been influenced by bias. Bias that’s been built up in the propaganda that so many freethinkers buy and feed into.So my question is, is it morally acceptable or ethically acceptable to feed off of the false promise of freedom?
Kind of sounds like the beginning of human extinction, to me. However, there are Christians who would call it the beginning of the second coming of Christ. People opting to be homosexual because it’s trendy sounds like a story right out of the bible. And absolutely takes away from the idea that homosexuality is a choice. But by the time we figure that out we’ll be chest deep in a morality crisis.Given that there is absolutely no evidence to support that homosexual unions slow down or stop promiscuity among homosexuals. And on top of that it’s completely by choice. The fundamental issues that support the family unit will be completely forgotten.
What I found in my search was pretty interesting. Every single site I went to sited that homosexuality could be an evolutionary error. However no one wanted to go there to keep from offending people. So no more research is being done on the subject. I also found out that quite a lot of other things are associated with being left handed and homosexuality. For instance, penis size, the direction your hair curls, autism, stuttering, and schizophrenia to name a few.
I do not want to debate anything in this thread. I would like to ask non Christins what they dislike about how Christians go about telling them about God. Same goes for Christians. I would really appreciate it if Christians wouldnt come into this thread and try to defend Christianity here
Ignoramus of the Week: Reverend J.R. Seabolt
On his 2012 in Biblical Prophecy and The Mayan Calendar page he list eight major reasons for why the world will end in 2012.
With Barack Hussein Obama as the new president of the United States, how near is the end of this age? Will Obama close all Churches in America that do not conform to the New World Order (NWO)? This NWO may well lead to a one world religion, (the religion of Islam), one world currency (the Mark of the Beast), and a one world leader (the Antichrist). This new society will be one of socialism where Christians will be beheaded for their faith in Christ.
Here’s a short little description for all of his eight points. Go to his site directly so you can see all the applicable Biblical verses that back up his points.
Bible Prophecy
Scientific experts from around the world are genuinely predicting that in 2012, all life on Earth could well finish. Some are saying it’ll be humans that set it off. Others believe that a natural phenomenon will be the cause.
Sir Isaac Newton and Newton’s Riddle
Sir Isaac Newton, who lived some 300 years ago (1642-1727), was one of the great geniuses, with perhaps the highest I.Q of anyone in history. He is called “the father of modern science” and “the father of the industrial revolution.” He discovered many scientific laws. God chose Isaac Newton to impart many of His deepest secrets and riddles.
The Mayan Calendar
Among the first to predict 2012 as the end of the world were the Mayans; a race that was skilled at building highly accurate astrological equipment out of stone. Thousands of years ago they managed to calculate the length of the lunar moon as 329.53020 days, only 34 seconds out. The Mayan calendar predicts that the Earth will end on December 21st, 2012. Given that they were pretty close to the mark with the lunar cycle, it’s likely they’ve got the end of the world right as well.
Sun Storms
NASA predicts that a terrific solar storm will hit the earth in 2012 which will be 30-50% greater than anything before. I believe that there has been global warming over the past decades but it is related to sunspot activity on the sun, not carbon dioxide emissions. The sun has gotten hotter and that has affected the earth. A massive solar blast from the sun in 2012 could burn up the earth as could a collision with an asteroid or a comet.
The Atom Smasher
Scientists in Europe have been building the world’s largest particle accelerator. Basically its a 27km tunnel designed to smash atoms together to find out what makes the Universe tick. However, the mega-gadget has caused serious concern, with some scientists suggesting that it’s probably a bad idea to turn it on in the first place. They’re predicting all manner of deadly results, including mini black holes. So when this machine is fired up for its first serious experiment in 2012, the world could be crushed into a super-dense blob the size of a basketball.
Yellowstone Supervolcano
The Yellowstone volcano has a long cycle of eruptions and we’re due for an explosion that will fill the atmosphere with ash, blocking the sun and plunging the Earth into a frozen winter that could last many years. The pressure under the Yellowstone is building steadily and geologists have set 2012 as a likely date for the fireworks.
The Physicists
Physicists at Berkeley University have been crunching the numbers. and they’ve determined that the Earth is well overdue for a major catastrophic event. Even worse, they’re claiming their calculations prove, that we’re all going to die, very soon – while also saying their prediction comes with a certainty of 99% – and 2012 just happens to be the best guess as to when it occurs.
Polar Shift
While the pole shift is underway, the magnetic field is disrupted and will eventually disappear, sometimes for up to 100 years. The result is enough UV outdoors to crisp your skin in seconds, killing everything it touches.
He also lists many other reasons below his original eight. He even includes some fancy biblical math to prove how 2012 is indeed the year of the rapture. He sums up his unquestionable data with the following,
Long story made short, this article pretty much proves that December 21st, 2012 will be the start of the Tribulation foretold of in the Holy Bible. The Rapture of God’s true believers takes place before that date so… this means the Rapture will come on or before December 21, 2012!I don’t see that it matters how this world is going to end, the fact is we are going down at warp speed, and we will crash and burn very soon. It’s time to hit the eject button and “Be Saved” now before it’s too late.

Fair enough, let me get a little complimentary exaltation out of the way right now.
Ignoramus Updates
President Obama’s energy plans do not include more nuclear power, drilling for more oil in the United States, or creating more oil refineries here. Conclusion: Obama’s energy plans are phony and have a socialist, if not Communist, agenda.
After numerous false starts at trying to instill fear and panic into Americans, it seems that the terrorist organization, the News Media, has achieved a certain amount of success with the newly invented “Swine Flu.” The furor over this flu, which hasn’t killed a tenth as many Americans as the real flu, causes me to ponder…what has happened to the Bird Flu? Is it still out there? Is it still the threat we were told to fear? Or has it simply evaporated since the News Mafia now has a more effective tool to sow fear? Hey, what happened to the West Nile Virus? Do we still need to fear it?
The power television has to dictate what we think and approve is apparently limitless. Think of the things/groups that are now socially acceptable only because TV has ceaselessly promoted their cause. We now find acceptable: Communists, Homosexuals, Psychics, Vampires, Cannibals, Murderers, Pornographers, Witches, Muslims, Space Monsters, Whores, and Bums
While these low-life folks have been exalted the following have had their character assassinated by TV: Christians, Jews, Preachers, Whites, Parents, CEOs, Virgins, and Patriots
