just coz i happen to agree with many doesnt mean that my opinion is not genuinely mine.

Wondered what it was like to be an enlighted leftest…. Naw. That don’t make sense either…

Tolerance and diversity only works as long as you don’t disagree with them.

As for the bigot comment… The stance on condoms is that sex should only occur in marrage and you should never try and stop life from occuring. But you enlighted ones simply wouldn’t understand a simple principle like that.

So. Go ahead and be biased against Christianity, but support the religion of peace while they behead you infidels.

Much like I imagine you would in such circumstances, they choose to plough away and let their womenfolk take the consequences. If you asked the African women bearing hungry children and suffering from STDs, they’d probably like to know a bit more about this ‘condom’ business.

Irony fail.

Kid, atheists are _nothing_ like the little comic book version your religion your church is spoon-feeding you.

As for your “idiotic minority” comment, how about we see some sign from you that you understand the problem. What is “idiotic” and “narrow-minded” about the problem Christians is the creationism, the anti-abortion rights movement, the anti-homosexual agenda, the whining about being “persecuted” and the childish attacks on atheism.

If you want to support your claim that Christians in general are not idiotic, let’s hear you condemn those five idiotic Christian agendas.

If you can’t – if instead you choose to stand up for them – then you’re not in any position to lecture the rest of us about our attitudes about Christianity.

What I’m really trying to get at is that people pick a religion based on what makes them feel closest to God. No one follows all of the rules or believes every little thing that they’re “supposed” to believe, so saying that “You identify as A, therefore you believe B, C, D, E, F & G” doesn’t make sense and is just another form of stereotyping.

I’m not religious, but I believe lies are toxic. Is it really all right to lie to your God? What’s the point in “believing” if you’re just gonna get all cafeteria about it?

Heck, you can be excommunicated for not doing everything the Pope says.

Point of Order: Only if the Pope is speaking Ex Cathedra… problem is they don’t actually tell you when the Pope is pulling it out of his own ass, or it’s been pulled out of the ass of a venom of Cardinals (note: I don’t know the collective for Cardinals, but looking at Ratzinger’s record, a ‘Venom’ seems apropos…)

“I compare someone to a Neanderthal because he said something with which I disagree, and then I tell him to be open-minded like I am.

“I think I’ll touch myself while praying tonight. Yeah, I’ve earned it.”

Remember Jeffry Dahmer? Remeber how he went to jail for murdering kids, having sex with the corpses, and eating them? It turns out, he used condoms during his horrible acts! How is it *that* message got through? “Always wear a condom”, sure, but how did he miss the part where it’s wrong to commit murder and then **** the corpse?!?

Actually, it is. If you don’t accept that premise, you can be excommunicated. Heck, you can be excommunicated for not doing everything the Pope says.

I was just trying to see the good in this one, even while my brain was screaming about the bad.

Would you like to know what true irony is? Your obvious regard for Christianity in which you believe that it is filled with mindless drones who have no sense of having an open mind and whom, you believe, are as naive as a diamond is hard! Let me explain the irony for you, since your mind is like that of a neanderthals’ and you probably can’t come up with any ideas of your own: You’re, obviously, making a claim in which you believe ALL Christians to be mindless, when, in fact, you have a shallow mind for doing the same thing an untrue Christian would do: Not being accepting of others, regardless of faith, and passing judgment on others and condemning them when it is not your place.

Now, go think for yourself instead of trying to be the “cool” atheist by spewing out mindless drivel fed to you by others. If you have an opinion, make sure it’s your opinion.

Ps. Don’t condemn the whole for the idiotic minority.

Pss. Rebuttal to what you’d say to my Ps.: Yes, it is the minority, but in the world society, the ones who make a bad case for a group are the ones who have an over-abundance of exposure and therefore become the stereotype… It’s how all stereotypes are created…

Thank you, have a nice day!
