Rosa's Laws Of Religion.

Rosa's Laws of Theodynamics.

The Zeroth Law of Theodynamics

If two religions are both in equilibrium with a third religion, they will all claim to support freedom of speech and conscience.

First Law of Theodynamics

Gods can be created out of nothing and will disappear without trace.

Second Law of Theodynamics

In an open system, religions tend to disorder and form an ever-increasing number of sects.

Third Law of Theodynamics

Gods disappear completely when the number of believers in them reaches zero.

Rosa's Laws of Theological Relativity.

First Law of General Theological Relativity

Believers invariably have the same gods as their relatives.

Second Law of General Theological Relativity

False gods are the ones your relatives don't believe in.

Third Law of General Theological Relativity

You might have nothing against people who believe in false gods but you wouldn't want your daughter to marry one.

First Law of Special Theological Relativity

The power of gods to explain expands so as to fill the ignorance available to them.

Second Law of Special Theological Relativity

The power of gods is directly proportional to the mass of their believers.

Third Law of Special Theological Relativity

Tolerance for other religions is inversely proportional to the power of a god's supporters. As their power becomes absolute their tolerance reaches zero.

Combined Law of Special Theological Relativity

Intolerance is inversely proportional to the amount of knowledge in a social system.

Rosa's Laws of Religious Inheritance.

First Law of Religious Inheritance.

Every religious individual receives just one religion from their parents.

Second Law of Religious Inheritance.

All traits of the one religion are inherited together. No mixing occurs.

Rosa's Laws of Religious Interaction.

Law of Constant Religious Conflict.

When two religions come into contact, the violence of the reaction is directly proportional to the strength of belief. May often become explosive with or without a catalyst.

Law of Magnified Difference.

When two or more religions come into contact, small differences assume major significance.

Rosa's Law of Religious Elasticity.

First Law of Religious Elasticity.

All religions believe in freedom of conscience until they acquire the power to abolish it.

Second Law Of Religious Elasticity.

Morality can stretch as far as needed to facilitate clerical privilege and church income.

Rosa's Laws of Internet Religion.

First Law Of Internet Debate.

The validity of a religious argument is inversely proportional to the number of exclamation marks following it.

Second Law of Internet Debate.

Gods forgive any lie provided you put the magic word 'FACT!' after it.

Third Law Of Internet Debate.

Gods don't mind how you behave towards people you can't see because morality only applies when people can physically hit back.

Fourth Law Of Internet Debate.

All debates can be won with passive-aggressive threats, bigoted condescension and/or indignant flounces.

Fifth Law of Internet Debate.

First one to mention Hitler, Nazis, Stalin, Mao, Communism or Pol Pot wins. No one mention Martin Luther, slavery or witch burning! Okay!

Ten Reasons To Lose Faith: And Why You Are Better Off Without It

This book explains why faith is a fallacy and serves no useful purpose other than providing an excuse for pretending to know things that are unknown. It also explains how losing faith liberates former sufferers from fear, delusion and the control of others, freeing them to see the world in a different light, to recognise the injustices that religions cause and to accept people for who they are, not which group they happened to be born in. A society based on atheist, Humanist principles would be a less divided, more inclusive, more peaceful society and one more appreciative of the one opportunity that life gives us to enjoy and wonder at the world we live in.

Available in Hardcover, Paperback or ebook for Kindle
