What do they do to you? |
I was spat on by a Christian girl in school three times (3 different girls too). Oh and Jesus raped me in my anus. What? You didn't know Jesus was gay? |
Should I be shocked? or offended. What reaction are you looking for? Is your antisocial behavior the result of some adolescent angst or you just hate missionaries?  |

The TV thing sounds extreme. You said, "My whole family and peer group believe things that I believe make no sense." Like what? |
My family believes the rapture is coming, they can be just as intolerant as Pat Robertson, my sister's always talking about heaven, this girl at my school (without any thing religious entering the conversation) said that she hates atheists (but she's nice to people of other religions, so it's okay to believe different things as long as you believe in anything), and this slut at my school was lecturing an atheist about he's going to hell. It's so frustrating sometimes.

Then you do realize that your God cannot exist, right? As his attributes (as described in the Bible) make him logically impossible to exist.

I was simply responding to a question you posed. You asked Nimitz, "What do they do to you?" and I thought I'd give you some experiences of what they do to me. Plain and simple. Any other assumptions and drivel you want to throw out there will be rightly thrown into my portable Hawking's Hole of Shit.

Ahh...religious Christians. God loves but we hate? Yeah I understand. The thing is? Religion serves the precise purpose for which it was intended, which is to divert people away from God. The weblike maze of beliefs are enough to make most people throw up their hands, and often, throw out God. At least that was the way I saw it for my first 30 years. |

A better interpretation of Christians is more like God hates but we say he loves and we hate.

I'm sorry that's been your experience. Sadly, it's not the first time I've heard it and I know it won't be the last. "Christians" hardly represent the person who Jesus is, but I'm sure you already knew that. Obviously you're intuitive enough not to have fallen into that kind of dogma. |

Hi. Why do you have randomly placed question marks in your posts?

Even if Christians fully lived like the Bible and Jesus, they still wouldn't be great people. It seems like the overwhelming majority either don't understand Christianity and are intolerant or are others that fully understand it and are intolerant. You might be part of a small minority that ignore the bad parts of Christianity and try to live like the peaceful image of Jesus.

In Job 42:2 it says God can do anything (paraphrased) So let me ask you something. If God can do anything can he make a rock so heavy that the rock cannot be lifted under any circumstance?
