The Weirdest, Unscientific & Immoral Teachings of Today’s Major Religions

Christianity & Judaism

Lot, Abraham and the gang-rape of ‘their’ women

Lot wanted to hand over his two virgin daughters to be raped by a mob in place of the two male angels the mob asked to rape instead. Lot and his family left the city, his wife turning into a pillar of salt for looking at the city on exit, even though god told her not to and knew in advance that this would happen anyway. On the mountain after leaving Sodom & Gemmorah, Lot got drunk by his daughters and his two daughters then took turns at having sex with him.  He impregnated both daughters (Gen 19:31-36).  This is echoed in Chapter 19 of the book of Judges: An unarmed Levite (priest) travels with his concubine Gibeah. They spent the night at a man’s house. Men come to the door, demanding the old man hand over the male guest ‘so that we may know him’. In almost identical words of Lot, ‘Behold, here is my daughter a maiden, and his concubine; them I will bring out now, and humble ye them, and do with them what seemeth good unto you; but unto this man do not so vile a thing’ (Judges 19:23-4).

‘Huble ye them’ is chilling. Enjoy yourselves humiliating and raping my daughter and the concubine. So they’re handed over to the mob, who gang rape the women all night. ‘They knew her and abused her all the night until the morning: and when the day began to spring, they let her go. Then came  the woman in dawning of the day, and fell at the door of the man’s house where the lord was, till it was light’ (Judges 19:25-6). ‘Up, and let us be going’. But she was dead. So he cut her into 12 pieces and sent her parts around Israel (19:29). Then everyone got mad and 60,000 men were killed in the tribe of Benjamin. Abraham was Lot’s uncle.

Abraham lends his wife to numerous men

Abraham went to Egypt in famine. Gave his wife to Pharoah, but didn’t mention they were married. Abraham becomes rich, god disapproves and sends plagues on Phaorh and his house. Pharoah wants to know why he wasn’t told she wasn’t Abraham’s wife rather than sister? He hands her back and they’re kicked out of Egypt (Gen 12:18). They pull the same stunt again, with Abimelech the King of Gerar. He’s induced to marry Sarah just as Pharoah did for thinking she was Abraham’s sister (Genesis 20:2-5). He too expressed indignation, in almost identical terms to Pharoah’s.

Jewish intolerance of their neighbours

Do Jews view Palestinians like Amorites, Canaanites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites & Jebusites? “Ye shall destroy their altars, break their images, and cut down their groves. For though shalt worship no other god: for the Lord, whose name is Jealosu, is a jealous God. Lest though make a covenant wit hthe inhabitants of the land, and they go a whoring after their gods, and do sacrifice unto their gods, and one call thee, and though eat of his sacrifice; and though take of their daughters unto thy sons, and their daughters go a whoring after their gods, and make thy sons go a whoring after their gods. Though shalt make thee no molten gods (exodus 24:13-17)

Islam

Do Christians & Jews go to heaven?

One verse says Christians and Jews who believe in god and do good works go to heaven. Another verse says Christians and Jews go to eternal hell for the worst crime of not believing. Muslims still haven’t figured this contradiction out, insisting it’s no contradiction and interpreting it in various contradictory ways.

What does the Quran say the trinity is made up of?

Father, Mother and Son.

The Quran says Jews worship Ezra as the Son of God?

Yes. It says the Christians worship Jesus as a god and the Jews worship Ezra as a god. Even more disastrous is that this is mentioned as a juxtaposition using identical grammar, so it can’t be said it’s out of conext. Some apologists say this refers only to a small heretical band of Jews, but the ayat says “the Jews” which refers to all. 

The moon split in two and came back together 1,400 years ago?

Yes. NASA’s aware of this fact and involved in a big conspiracy to cover it up.

Sperm forms into a fetus? With no ovary?

No mention of the ovary in embrylogy. The sperm turns into a fetus, even though it dies inside the ovum.

Divide the inheritence, but the maths don’t add up?

The maths don’t work.

Use the hadiths, but quran forgot to mention them?

No mention of hadiths as a source of learning in quran. No mention of sunnah. Ambiguously says to “follow the prophet”, which is ambiguous for a book that calls itself ‘clear’.

Pay zakat, but quran forgot how much to pay?

No reference at all on how much to pay. Mentions the maths of inheritence and the 20% khums from the war spoils, so no reason maths was forgotten here.

Widows should re-marry because it’s unnatural to remain single, except for Mohammed’s wives?

The wives of the prophet are mothers of the believers. Kind of strange that they’re forced to remain widows when other women are required to re-marry.

Mohammed will divorce you for better wives if you don’t apologise?

He’s perfect, so you can’t disagree with him. If you don’t apologise Allah will swap you for better wives.

 

Buddhism

Buddha said meditators are able to fly through the air and to walk through walls. Most Buddhist monks and laypeople actually believe this too.

Buddha said thoughts and emotions come from a cavity within the heart. This was a common belief throughout the world during this time.

Buddhism teaches you’ll get less bad karma by murdering a child than to punch a Buddha in the nose with a drop of blood coming out. Buddha doesn’t even experience pain, making it even more ridiculous if viewed from the consequentalist school of morality.
