Subgenius is a satirical religion that pokes fun at organized religion, conspiracy theories, and popular culture. It was founded in the 1950s and gained a small following due to its bizarre beliefs and humorous approach to spirituality. Followers of Subgenius often refer to themselves as "Bob" to mock the idea of a singular divine figure.

What are the names of the sons of god?

Christians believe in the one God of Abraham, also revered by Judaism and Islam. The Hebrew tradition represented the name of this god with the tetragram (transliterated from hebrew): YHWH. They further believe that this same deity revealed Himself via incarnation in the person of Jesus Christ, whose name means (roughly translated from several derivations): the annointed savior. The vast majority of Christians also believe in the triune nature of god, meaning that the one God comprises three persona: The Creator, The Sustainer, and The Redeemer traditionally referred to as: the father, the son and the holy ghost. These three persona are collectively called The Holy Trinity.I assume you mean the Christian God?His name is Elohim (a plural form of El) suggesting what is later revealed that He is a Tri-unity. Father, Son and Holy Spirit.His name is Jehovah (Yahweh) - the Covenant Keeping GodHis name is El Shaddah - the All Sufficient GodHe is the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.He wants you to be in Heaven with Him for He loves you. He gave His Son to die for you. If you have an interesting in him read The Bible - especially John's Gospel.Check out this website www.gospeltruthforyou.comHe has many other Names - but I love Him for He first loved me and He saved me from my sins and made me fit for heaven.Please seek Him - nothing else in the world matters so much.God blessAndrew

What was the earliest meme?

Memes have become very popular due to the use and development of the Internet. The earliest meme is questionable and unknown. Memes are defined as 'an element of a culture or system of behavior passed from one individual to another by imitation or other non-genetic means', according to Google. In saying this one of the earliest memes could be The Church of the SubGenius which was a parody religion. This dates back to the late 1970's, however there are probably more older memes.


Is there a sect or denomination of people who worship God but not Jesus and are not Jewish?

Most religions worship a god of some sort (except for Buddhism and Taoism) Many worship many gods (Hindus, Wiccans, native religions) Some religions have a God and a Jesus (Moslems and Rasifarians) but don't rate the Jesus part so highly. Pastafarians the Church of the Subgenius are sort of to the left of this whole issue Mormons have a different veiw of God and Jesus than most mainline Christian churches

How can you encourage an atheist person that there is god?

i dont think there is any need of making ant athiest person into religiousWhy would you want to convince an Atheist to do this? Don't infect an Atheist with your religious virus. I doubt they would even revert to religion, too normal.Answer:Consider how you would feel if the shoe were on the other foot. You are after all asking him to abandon hs worldview for yours. You are asking for im to say that you are right and he is wrong.If one of your friends was a user of hard drugs, a swinger, Pastifarian (worshipping the Flying Spaghetti Monster), a member of the Church of the Subgenius (or any of the more mainline religions like Moslem, Hindu or Buddhist) and asked you to come to meet with him and his friends. Assuming it was pretty obvious that your friend fully expected that you would "see the light" and join up after this introduction. How would you feel?Most people prefer to find their own way in these matters. Leave your friend alone or you'll have neither a convert or a friend.You might also ask yourself what an atheist would have to do to convince you that there is a no God. An atheist typically will be as strong in his convictions as you are. What will you do if his arguments are better than yours? Are you ready to convert?


How do you encourage an atheist to go to church?

Tricky question! I work as a Chaplain in the British Armed Forces and I run into these issues on a daily basis and the best bit of advice I can give you is 'less is more'! Don't push because people don't like doing things under pressure so a little encouragement is good but not to much. Faith is one of those things that has to come from the individual. Try mentioning that you enjoy church and they are welcome to join if they would like. They might have questions about the proceedings at church and let them know that you cant do anything wrong in church and all the church is about is relaxing, enjoying and worshipping. Answer:Consider how you would feel if the shoe were on the other foot. If one of your friends was a user of hard drugs, a swinger, Pastifarian (worshipping the Flying Spaghetti Monster), a member of the Church of the Subgenius (or any of the more mainline religions like Moslem, Hindu or Buddhist) and asked you to come to meet with him and his friends. Assuming it was pretty obvious that your friend fully expected that you would "see the light" and join up after this introduction. How would you feel? The answer is obvious, a person prefers to find their own way in these matters. Leave your friend alone or you'll have neither a convert or a friend.

There are over 12 main categories;ChristianityBuddhismConfucianismHinduismIslamJainismJudaismShintoSikhismTaoismZoroastrianismNew Religious MovementsAnd over 25 sub categories such as:BaptistEpiscopalLutheranMethodistPentecostalZenPure LandTheravadaTibetanShaivismVaishnavismShaktaPhilosophyOrthodoxLiberal/ReformChristian-Derived NRMsEastern-Derived NRMsPaganism and New AgeBahaiScientologyRastafarianismAnswer:There are thousands of different belief systems from animism to zoroastrianism and, humans being humans, tens of thousands of differing views of those belief systems.Let me give a couple or so examples.Christianity:The four main branches of Christianity are Catholic, Orthodox, Protestant and Anglican. Under these four broad headings a multitude of subdivisions exist. Indeed there are reported to be approximately 38,000 Christian denominations.Islam:There are also four major divides in Islam, Sunni, Shi'ite, Kharwarij and Sufi. There are numerous sub-divisions under each heading.Answer:Like the old saying goes "More than you can shake a stick at!"Some religions have one (1) follower others claim a third of the human population. In some jurisdictions a "real" religion (for tax purposes) has to be registered. Other folks feel that since they've founded their religion on direct divine instructions no gov't agency should need to be involved. Then there are sects of existing religions who may be claimed or disavowed by the parent group. There is no truly accurate answer.The appended link lists 1000 Religions. Not truly an exhaustive list, it has Jedi, but misses the Church of the SubGenius and Pastafariansm.
