For most people who grow up it's easy to throw out the god bullshit, but not so easy for a preacher man.

It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his job depends on not understanding it.
-- Upton Sinclair

Mr. Sinclair's quote describes the preacher man's problem perfectly. There is nobody more hopelessly brainwashed than the idiots who have made the religion industry their career.

But some preachers, despite all the odds against it, wake up some morning and they suddenly realize it's all bullshit. The whole thing from god to jeebus to life after death, it's all a fantasy for gullible cowardly morons.

For most people who grow up their lives remain pretty much the same except they get to sleep late on Sunday mornings. Unfortunately for the preachers there are many problems when they realize the only career they know is completely worthless. The problems are worse if the preacher who doesn't believe the god bullshit lives in one of America's most backward hick-infested states like Louisiana.

At From Bible-Belt Pastor to Atheist Leader (a New York Times article I found thanks to Jerry Coyne's blog) a Louisiana preacher throws out the religion industry for what I think is another equally worthless career, atheist leader, as if normal people need a leader.

On the way there he received the usual Christian love: "Almost at once, DeWitt became a pariah in DeRidder. His wife found herself ostracized in turn, and the marriage suffered. She moved out in June. He received a constant stream of hate messages — some threatening — and still does, more than seven months later." Christians have repeatedly shown they are world-class stupid assholes.

Besides being assholes Christians are way beyond insane, for example from the New York Times article "whooping Pentecostals who were speaking in tongues". All other branches of the Jeebus Death Cult are equally insane, unless you think it's normal to believe the stinking decomposing Jeebus became a zombie.

Whether or not Christians have made religion their career, they have to throw out the bullshit if they don't want to waste their entire lives being a coward.

It's easy to realize Jeebus was a worthless insane religious fanatic. It's easy to understand the whole thing is a fantasy. It's not necessary to write a book to explain it. I can in one short sentence explain why god fairies are not real: God equals magic equals bullshit.

That's it. If a brainwashed person understands god is just another word for magic, it doesn't take much common sense to understand why magic is not real, therefore magic fairies are not real.

Scientists have made supernatural explanations unnecessary, but even without 21st century science it should be obvious magic is not real. Any unbrainwashed child should be able to figure it out.
