While surfing the web and visiting some of my favorite links, I stumbled on this seethe.
This came from a certain Dan Thrapp. According to him:
Free Thinkers……Hmmmm….that is odd! Atheism and Atheist are not free nor thinkers. However, Atheism and Atheist do find themselves trapped, “fixated”, or even bi-polar on the issue of God. It is so sad… a mind is a terrible thing to waste….always being disrespectful, disruptive, obsessively ignoring, disparate to reasoning fixations, & socially unacceptable. According to recent studies reported in the AMA journal Atheist suffer more mental disorders than society at large! Atheism today and throughout human history finds Atheist’s only survival means being loneliness, rejections, or avoidance by concealment to personal thoughts in any & all social settings! Even in your gay community which you hide in rejection is yours, but allows you to stand socially isolated! Maybe you should really think about your behavioral causes and begin adding life to your agenda! Oh….my goodness the mental health professional make their living from your self battle as little gods! However, I wish to thank you for you kindness in helping me to retire nicely:) Even a tree would be a better partner or god than your delusional rational reasoning abilities presently! God Bless
Please remember under your present condition, godless or as a little demigod, never attempt to join a 12 step program; because failure is your only reasonable assessment in do so! Remember a high power…must be the tree and Jesus! Get into a good recovery program to return “back” to humanity’s circle of life….which includes God! Release your hate and identify your transference fixations with the aid of a good mental health professional.
Case Study: Dan Thrapp
Dan Thrapp: Male, Age: Unknown
Other than a poor comprehension with reality, we find Dan Thrapp suffers in paranoia and hysteria. Reading Dan Thrapp’s article, we hind him too pre-occupied with the thoughts of atheist loathing. It seems Dan Thrapp is suffering from manic-depressive illness (Axis II DSM-IV-TR).
Base on his article, Dan Thrapp may have a background of childhood physical, sexual, or emotional abuse or physical/emotional neglect. So in order for him to have a normal social life, Dan Thrapp is now venting his emotional/psychological issues with the people he hated most; the atheist.
Dan Thrapp is using atheists as a self-reflection, and self-rumination of his own depression. Since he also shows symptoms of mild schizophrenia (F23.3), he has this uncontrollable anger over people who don’t seem to agree on what he believes as true. He then accuses them of psychological illness in which he is now suffering.
This anger is fueled more by a “fox and grape” complex in which because of Dan Thrapp’s inability to refute atheistic arguments, he become votive, detached from reality and sociopathic.
Precutions:
When Dan Thrapp encounters any article that criticized his belief system (e.g. Jesus, God, Christianity, Bible), this triggers a combo of fight reflex and pure rage. There will be an alteration of emotion and subject usually starts to go berserk.
Symptoms:
Under this emotional breakdown episode, subject’s consciousness is altered which gives Dan Thrapp a different personality. The subject will be detaches from reality and develops an elaborate inner world which is illogical and fantastic.
Physical symptoms will follow:
His blood pressure rises.
Pupils dilates.
Shaking of lips and fluttering of eyelids.
The subject’s muscles tighten and become rigid with rage.
There is also an over flow of saliva.
There are cases in which after reading an atheistic article, Dan Thrapp suffers diarrhea and bed-wetting at night.
On worst scenario, after reading such article, Dan Thrapp may immediately suffer involuntary bowel discharge. If this is the case and if you have seen the other physical symptoms above stay away from him as possible.
Please do not let the subject get in touch to any atheistic articles. If that would happen please call your emergency number and notify his psychologist.

=========================================
Observably these harangues are really an effect of reading Richard Dawkin’s “The God Delusion”. God- believers just like to throw their garbage in other people’s lot.
According to Prof.Dawkin, God is a delusion…so VIOLA…atheist or atheism is idiocy…according to delusional Christians.
Now what is a delusion? A delusion is a false belief. You can also define it as a fixed, false belief that persists despite evidence to the contrary...(which is very familiar with religious faith).
So...who's suffering from a disorder @ Dan Thrapp?
Ok...enough of Dan...let's talk about our sanity for a change.
If a person believes that he is being guided by invisible elves, chances are you will call him bonkers, but when a group of people began to believe it, we call that religion.
When Richard Dawkins published The God Delusion
, many people were shaken. Boy! I never taught it was possible to find a book like it in Philippine bookstores.
I remember attending this atheists gathering here in Manila…I do not exactly remember the date, but just for some kicks….I asked one of the waiter on what he thinks about people who doesn’t believed the existence of God. Well…what I got was quite a surprising response: They’re not human.
If a person doesn’t believe in God, people seem to think negatively about him. Instead of contemplating about his reasons for not believing, they seem to concentrate more on some issues…negative issues on the non-believer’s life. Maybe something happened to him or that some of his prayers (or wishes) were not answered. That is why he now rejecting God.
Christian apologists most of the times rubs more salt in the injury. In the medieval idea, John Chrysostom said that a man who does not fear God does not exist and his nature is somehow not human. Catholic philosopher Jacques Maritain said that atheists have inferior moral and psychological status.
H.C. Rumke placed all atheists in the class of the mentally sick when he said, “Unbelief is an interruption in development.” (The Psychology of Unbelief
1962 p.13)
What?
Alister McGrath even said that atheism is an outcome of anxiety, despair and alienation.
Well that was then…this is now.
Today we have an idea of what kind of madness god belief can do and fortunately, we have history as a backup. Just imagine how many people were killed because of religious war and the insanity brought by the Inquisition and the Crusade. Golly! That is worst than being delusional. How many more were killed by religious suicide bombers, who believe that their action will bring him and his family to heaven?
Those are extreme cases. Let us focus on a more subtle side of this insanity.
Just go to Luneta Park on a Sunday night and watch these “Attorneys of God” debate their blues away. Believe me it’s better than Jack TV and Comedy Central. Just imagine the confusion…and to think about it, they’re debating a book which all of them read and believe to be the “Word of God.” And they say God is not the author of confusion.
How many religion, denomination or churches insist to be “the true one?” How many founders of these religions declare himself as “Son of God”, “the true messenger of God” or an “Angel of God”? Sheer madness!
I was reading Joseph Campbell’s Myth to Live By
and notice Chapter 10 of that book. He wrote that the imagery of schizophrenic fantasy perfectly matches that of a mythological hero’s journey (p.202). Well…as always, Mr. Campbell explained it very well. Now I am applying these ideas in a typical believer’s state of mind. Christians seems to create a world of their own, surrounded by invisible beings like God, angels, devils, Satan and nefelims. This is the same symptom of a person suffering with essential schizophrenia – a withdrawal from the impact of experience of the outside world. When a Christian starts to interpret the world base on his wonderland, now that is paranoid schizophrenia.
Karl Marx once said religion is the opium of society…who can blame him? Drug uses were common in some religious practice. Shamans or priests employ the use of plants like Psilocybe cubensis, Amanita muccaria (Fly Agaric) and yep…even Canabis (marijuana) in some of their rituals.
Hallucinogens were also utilized. For example, a priestess breathed gasses that seep out on rocks in the oracle in Delphi that have mild hallucinogenic effects and a priest translated her incoherent “prophecies”.
How about people giving their properties, money and other valuable stuffs on a conman, just because this phony can interpret the Bible very well? There is also this Christian sect that prohibits the use of modern medicine or blood transfusion, even on times of emergency. Just imagine what kind of mentality a parent has who can sacrifice the life of their own child who badly needs the medicine or the blood transfusion…just because their church prevents them.
In addition, Yahweh was diagnosed to be suffering from bipolar disorder…Good grief!
