Sculpin

A sculpin is a type of fish that belongs to the superfamily Cottoidea in the order Scorpaeniformes. As of 2006, this superfamily contains 11 families, 149 genera, and 756 species.

Sculpins occur in many types of habitat, including ocean and freshwater zones. They live in rivers, submarine canyons, kelp forests, and shallow littoral habitat types, such as tidepools.

Sculpins are benthic fish, dwelling on the bottoms of water bodies. Their pectoral fins are smooth on the upper edge and webbed with sharp rays along the lower edge, a modification that makes them specialized for gripping the substrate. This adaptation helps the fish anchor in fast-flowing water.

Antichristianity

by: Godhate

Pathetic lies spewing from their hearts
A plague of weakness kept alive for too long
It's consuming and killing the people
Searching for cure in a god of the waste
Praying to idols so old and rotten
I, the snake, let me offer alternatives
Celebrate, the majestic self – Antichristianity
This is my unreligion – Antichristianity
Hereby I present a new age
An era of darkness to swallow the false
Blessed be thee who speaks with tongues of fire
Trample the cross and Crumble the corpse
blaspheme the old, let nothing stop you
Open the gates to self preservation
Unfold in liberty
Death to god, death to Jesus
Put an end to their miserable world
Death to god, death to Jesus
We are as mighty as gods
Death to god, death to Jesus
Put an end to their miserable world
Death to god, death to Jesus
