do atheists give religiously obsessed people a hard time? (religiorant)

i've often heard the religious say that nasty atheists were, or are giving them a hard time....

well, boo friikking hoo - the shoe is finally on the other hoof after well over a thousand years of the religiously obsessed being arseholes to everyone in the name of "peace"...

at least atheists don't go around preaching notions of peace from their holy scripture (they don't *h*a*v*e* any holy scripture) only to be total hypocrites by completely and utterly ignoring or getting those scriptures *wrong*..

in other words, far too many of the religiously obsessed, BRAG about following something that they aren't even following correctly in the first place!!

that's pretty fucking pathetic... and they have the nerve to whinge about atheists?

but how soon "these" people forget that for way more than a thousand years, christians were the ones persecuting non-believers, and that christians would even persecute other christians with their multiple crusades, hundreds of years of inquisitions, and reformations, witch hunts etc etc... (The Fourth Crusade didn't make it to the middle east, the Crusaders from the WEST christian empire, invaded the EAST christian empire! )

and how soon we forget that the Muslims, for the first 100 years of their religion, that they conquered everything from the west of India, to Saudi Arabia, to Turkey, to Egypt, all the way across the North of Africa and all the way to *Spain*... religion of peace, my arse.

i mention this because recently a poor "persecuted" online christian believer mentioned something to me, alluding to the fact that all the atheists that they had encountered in real life, ended up giving them a hard time....

anyone see the problem with this person?

if you have a problem with *every* person you encounter that has different religious beliefs to you, then NEWSFUCKINGFLASHMORON!!

IT IS *YOU* THAT HAS THE FUCKING PROBLEM!

does it occur to these Sluts for their Religion, that if every non-believer they encounter gives them a hard time about their beliefs, then it is *THEM* that is obviously being belligerent towards everyone else who doesn't share their bullshit god story, therefore they are *creating* the animosity between themselves and the non-believer?

Anyone who needs to defend their bullshit beliefs so seriously, is *CREATING* the animosity between themselves and the people who don't share their beliefs because they don't really believe in those beliefs.. ie. if you had faith, you would not need to get upset, you should not even need to even feel the need to defend your religion, let alone actually go and defend it...

if I didn't have faith, then I wouldn't go around stating that much now would I? I would only make an issue of not having faith WHEN some moron with faith had a hissy fit at me for not believing. If you don't have cancer, you don't go around saying that you don't have cancer, do you?

That's a bit like if you were told the sun wasn't going to rise, then you go into a wild temper tantrum over that statement that conflicted with your "belief" that the sun would rise tomorrow. ie. if you truly believed the sun was going to rise tomorrow, why would you get upset if some clown said it wasn't?

WELL???

here-in lies the problem with people and their religion, if somebody can rattle the believer and their beliefs, then they DO NOT TRULY BELIEVE - it's *that* simple

and ya know, seriously, if people want to be pricks, then they will be pricks, and we should expect that to happen, but if you are going to be a prick, you better not go around pretending that you are morally superior, that your religion is "peaceful", that it preaches "tolerance"... point is, if you are going to say you are religious, then you don't get to be a fucking hypocritical prick about it while you are preaching peace, love and mung beans of tolerance of your religion while doing the exact fucking opposite....

the religious fucktards are the ones with the holy scripture telling them to be nice to everyone, not the non-believers...

that is to say, that believers HAVE NO EXCUSE TO **NOT** BE NICE TO EVERYONE...

did you hear me?

religious fucktards have NO EXCUSE FOR BEING CRAPPY TO OTHER PEOPLE - you are PERMANENTLY SUPPOSED TO BE ON YOUR BEST BEHAVIOUR, that's the price you pay for claiming to be like Jesus, or that your religion is one of peace.

i expect nothing short of Jesus-like behaviour from every christian, NO EXCEPTIONS, ALL THE TIME, and yet, many clearly are far from being Christ-like, a lot are not even able to ignore others that do not share their fantasy story, they just have to *React* in an outburst of rage to provide an affirmation for their beliefs, and a lot of them give their *fellow* believers, who believe in something ever so slightly different, the hardest time of all.

To put it simply, if you are prick to anyone and you claim that you are christian, then taaahhh dahhhhhh.... you are NOT christian, and you NEVER will be

and there is no excuse if you've not heard that "do unto others as you would have them do unto you?" is the highest law in christianity... LOVE is the highest law that Jesus taught.. If you don't believe me, then you've missed the point of the bible (if you're a believer) or if you are a non-believer, then you have a tainted view of christianity, which was completely caused by that previous bunch who have missed the point of their bible in it's message that LOVE is the highest law...

even "Saint" Paul said ....

Romans 13:9 For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if [there be] any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

Romans 13:10 Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love [is] the fulfilling of the law.

perhaps LOVE is too strong a word, and should be read as "being NICE", as we wouldn't want any HOMOPHOBES to think we're cracking on to them, now would we? ... so instead of "love thy neighbour as you would have them love you", it should be read as "be nice to other people, in the same way that you want them to be nice to you!" .. frankly I'd be happy if people were taught that you "don't be a cunt to people if you don't want them to be a cunt to you" ...

If you are a prick to anyone while you pretend to be christian, then you are LYING that you are christian .. now i don't mind if you lie to yourself, that's none of my business, but make it my business by spewing that lie to me or any other non-believer, and you are definitely at risk of being given a hard time, and if you don't want to be given a hard time about your religion, then it's best you shut the fuck up about it

so if you can't follow your precious holey scripture, and at least try to get along with everyone, then you are just a Slut for Jesus/Muhammad/Moses .. and that's all you are.... and yes, that's more IDOLATRY, as you are making out that the fact that you believe, is more important than what your beliefs have taught you.

and if people disagree with your religious views, then *LET* them, otherwise they *WILL* call you out if you start being pricks to them about things that don't even fucking matter...

the moral of the story?

religious obsession, is no different to being stupidly obsessed over things like Harry Potter, or Dungeons and Dragons, or Justin Beiber, or Britney ra ra ra or the ridiculous obsessions people have with "Twilight" and vampires that are all glittery..... well, it's no different, except for the fact that religion is *much* *worse*, because at least most of these "fads" burn themselves out, either that, or those fad stricken people actually GROW THE FUCK UP

that was kind of all over the place ..... mostly written 26th October 2010, mostly....
