Allâh! Lâ ilâha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He), the Ever Living, the One Who sustains and protects all that exists. Neither slumber, nor sleep overtake Him. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on earth. Who is he that can intercede with Him except with His Permission? He knows what happens to them (His creatures) in this world, and what will happen to them in the Hereafter . And they will never compass anything of His Knowledge except that which He wills. His Kursî/Dominion extends over the heavens and the earth, and He feels no fatigue in guarding and preserving them. And He is the Most High, the Most Great. [This Verse 2:255 is called Ayat-ul-Kursî.]— (255)

Jason,
The Idea of a Lucian God doesn't sound bad as I think of the benefits that this would bring to the economically struggling masses. Earlier this year the “Mother of God/Mama Bon Dieu” APPEARED to the people of New Jersey in a tree trunk which had sustained injury to its bark, triggering an influx of Religious-Zealot-Pilgrims and proved the perfect catalyst to reviving the ailing economy of that city, since pilgrim is synonymous to tourist – pilgrims must eat, get shelter/hotel, and do the things tourist do; spend money on souvenirs.
I am totally cognizant that staging an APPEARANCE of Mama Bon Dieu in that Big Beautiful Tree on the D.W. Square, opposite the Belfry on Laborie Street would possible present an insurmountable task with Atheist-Skeptics-Rationalist like Jason Joseph standing ready to TOPEDO and debunk such a way of salvation to economic prosperity, but just think of all the money that APPERANCE would generate, as Religious-Zealot-Pilgrims came from wealthy countries to ask that Majestic Tree for favours, from making them win the sweepstakes to giving them a cure for death.
We can certainly follow the examples of India and Pakistan by implementing “Blasphemy Laws” that would put people like Jason to death for debunking the powers of our own Divine Tree of Knowledge.
(cont.)
O.K. Call me crazy, but LOOK! When water started trickling down a statue of Jesus Christ at a Catholic church in Mumbai, India earlier this year, locals were quick to proclaim a miracle. People began collecting the “holy” water and the Church of Our Lady of Velankanni began to promote it as a site of pilgrimage.
So when Sanal Edamaruku arrived and established that this was not “holy” water so much as “holey” plumbing from a defective toilet, the backlash was severe. The renowned rationalist was accused of blasphemy, charged with offenses that carry a three-year prison sentence and eventually, after receiving death threats, escaped with his life by seeking exile in Finland.
So there it is! We can fix people like Jason Joseph if God's Mother “APPEARED” in that tree. What do you say Keny?
(cont.)
Edamaruku, who has the support of rationalists and atheists such as Richard Dawkins and Jason Joseph, is well known in India for debunking religious myths, and was already unpopular among Indian Catholics for publicly criticizing Mother Teresa's legacy in Kolkata.
Edamaruku has spurned an offer from a senior Indian Catholic bishop to apologize for the exposure of the bogus "miracle".
"The Catholic archbishop of Bombay, His Eminence Oswald Cardinal Gracias, has said that if I apologize for the 'offense' I have caused he will see to it that the charges are dropped. This shows that he has influence in the situation but he will not use it unless I apologize, which I will not do as I have done nothing wrong," he said.
How could anyone not love the practitioners of cannibalism who eat the body and blood of Jesus and followers of this Satanic Church, all dressed up in their ancient costumes-of-deception?
Why do they wear such elaborate costumes? Maybe it gives them power to raise the dead; you think?
Why can't God's Mother help us out and APPEAR in that tree?
Now,
Mick Nugent, from Atheist Ireland, the organization hosting the Indian's visit to the republic and Northern Ireland next week, said Edamaruku's plight also underlined the need for Dublin's Fine Gael-Labour government to repeal Ireland's blasphemy law.
"Blasphemy laws are very strange because they can be both very silly and also very sinister. They are very silly because you are talking about crying statues and moving statues or Virgin Marys appearing in tree stumps in Co Limerick. But on the other hand these type of laws are used in Islamic countries to jail people or sentence them to death. Or in Sanal's case facing a jail sentence for his work exposing bogus miracles.
"The Irish government should pay attention to Sanal's case and realize they must get rid of this absurd and dangerous law. Because we shouldn't be so smug in Ireland. After all, we have had the hysteria about moving statues and a man bringing people to a shrine in Co Mayo so they can look at the sun and see the Virgin Mary."
LOL.
LOL
I was just informed that Ma Beusoslieul had seen the Mother of God in the CDC some time ago.
But whatever happened to that?
Do You All Worship the Same God?
-----------------
Hell no! Every culture creates its own god. The greeks, the romans and you name it.
The slavists in the centre of the United States have a baptist god. this god is a white supremist.
The racsists in Utah have a Morman god.
The moslem slavists in the Middle East have two gods, a prophet and the devil represented by a crescent moon god.
The Idians have several gods and a remarkable one with several pairs of hands.
The Bhudists have their own god.
The indigenous peoples here in St. Lucia worshipped the sea, and about almost everything.
Every culture creates a god in its own image or its likeness.

Jason, Jason,
“but not even God can do anything without people.”
I know you are in a difficult period these days, but where do you get off writing crap like that?
I just read your flawed philosophy on Face Book. I have to assume that you have a hang-over from Bounty Rum, since you always try to be logical, even from the wrong premise; but this statement is the statement of a DRUNK!
The Universe is some fourteen billion years old and man, Homo Erectus with the earliest first fossil evidence dating to around 1.8 million years ago and the most recent to around 300,000 years ago. The species originated in Africa and spread as far as Spain, Georgia, India, China and Java.
So Jason, before man who or what did the construction of the Galaxies for God? Your Grand Father or the dinosaurs?
Jason Think thrice before you write such garbage.
Jackass, Jason is right.
People create gods. The god stories are myths, by people hallucinating on either drugs or by fasting.
You jackass!
You know Jason for the longest while I have questioned the fact that if the God we serve is so merciful,then why does he permit such evil things to happen to innocent people. Why is ity that evil always seems to over power good. And for those poor person who have followed religion all their lives, how comes the merciful God don't give them a break. Where is God when all those evil things are happening to those innocent people. How can I impress upon the god of mercy to have mercy on the innoncent.

Surah/Chapter Qaf
And indeed We have created man, and We know what his ownself whispers to him. And We are nearer to him than his jugular vein (by Our Knowledge). (16)
(Remember!) that the two receivers (recording angels) receive (each human being), one sitting on the right and one on the left (to note his or her actions)[] (17)
Not a word does he (or she) utter, but there is a watcher by him ready (to record it).[] (18)

Surah Al-Isra
Give full measure when ye measure, and weigh with a balance that is straight: that is the most fitting and the most advantageous in the final determination. (35)
And pursue not that of which thou hast no knowledge; for every act of hearing, or of seeing or of (feeling in) will be enquired into (on the Day of Reckoning). (36)
Nor walk on the earth with insolence: for thou canst not rend the earth asunder, nor reach the mountains in height. (37)

Qur-an: Surah Fussilat
And if an evil whisper from Shaitân (Satan) tries to turn you away from doing good, then seek refuge in Allâh. Verily, He is the All-Hearer, the All-Knower. (36)
And from among His Signs are the night and the day, and the Sun and the Moon. Prostrate yourselves not to the sun nor to the moon, but prostrate yourselves to Allâh Who created them, if you (really) worship Him. (37)

To "Son of Man"
In the same manner that you do not seem to comprehend Jason's article, and therefore deem it "crap" - is the same way, I - do not comprehend your many discussions, and therefore I - deem your writings - "CRAP"!!

Jason,
You see? Now your Fanatic Followers of your Religion-of-Jasonisim, have put out a Fatwah on me.
I will go into hiding as a cautious act to safeguard my person. I will see you at the “Greasy-pole” if you can resend the Fatwah.
LOL

Oh Divine One:
I forgot to mention, there's no need for the requested actions.
The END-OF-THE-WORLD is on December 21 anyway so ask your Acolytes to assemble on the Petit Piton at Midnight 12/21/12, where they will be "Raptured" into the Mother Ship.
The End, December = 12, 1+2=3: 21, 2+1=3; 12TH year of twenty-first century 1+2=3! 3+3+3=9; after 9 is 0!
See, END OF THE WORLD!!

Acolyte Armchair,
Try to be accurate in your statements if that is possible. Jason's statement, “but not even God can do anything without people.” was the specific item that I called, “CRAP”, and presented an argument that substantiated my evaluation of the said statement i.e the Galaxies were Created long before, ten billion years before our Solar System came into existence some four billion years ago and the evidence of anything resembling human, Homo Erectus and Homo sapiens neanderthalensis only shows up less than two million years ago; long after something know as the Great Ice Age, when Castries was under ice a few miles high. Perhaps I missed something?
My question to Jason was while man was absent; the fourteen billion years that the billions of Galaxies and Stars, and planets existed what part did man play in their construction??
Since you are so frigging smart you can answer for Jason – because he can never repeat such crap like you are attempting to justify.

Sura 22 - Al-Hajj (MADINA) : Verse 73
O men! Here is a parable set forth! Listen to it! Those on whom besides Allah, ye call cannot create (even) a fly, if they all met together for the purpose! And if the fly should snatch away anything from them, they would have no power to release it from the fly: feeble are those who petition and those whom they petition!
