Invisible Pink Unicorn The Invisible Pink Unicorn (IPU) is the goddess of a parody religion used to satirize theistic beliefs, taking the form of a unicorn that is paradoxically both invisible and pink.[1] She is a rhetorical illustration used by atheists and other religious skeptics as a contemporary version of Russell's teapot, sometimes mentioned in conjunction with the Flying Spaghetti Monster.[2] The IPU is used to argue that supernatural beliefs are arbitrary by, for example, replacing the word God in any theistic statement with Invisible Pink Unicorn.[3] The mutually exclusive attributes of pinkness and invisibility, coupled with the inability to disprove the IPU's existence, satirize properties that some theists attribute to a theistic deity.[4] History[edit] The Invisible Pink Unicorn logo used to depict atheism The concept was further developed by a group of college students from 1994 to 1995 on the ISCA Telnet-based BBS. Invisible Pink Unicorns are beings of great spiritual power. Concepts[edit]

Godchecker.com - Your Guide To The Gods Wicca: For the Rest of Us - The God and Goddess The God and Goddess represent the balance of the universe, the world as a whole, no one part complete without the other. They are not, however, dichotomies - they are not opposites. They can both represent all things - both life and death, for example. Good and evil are generally not addressed at all, as they are human constructs: humanity hardly needs a supernatural force tempting it to evil - it creates far too much on its own. Many Wiccans simply worship the God and Goddess. "The God and Goddess are the embodiment of love and goodness and want only what's best for us." As embodiments of the universe, the God and Goddess dwell everywhere and are within everything. We are very insistent in that we acknowledge no evil deity. "I believe in a God and a Goddess, But I only worship the Goddess because Christianity has so overemphasized the God." Many people identify more with one than the other, God or Goddess. However, deities are not names to be plucked from a book.
