Another Reason Christians are Dangerous
Maybe I should rephrase that. What Christians are being taught is dangerous. I’m not talking about the annoying stuff like our eternal destination or god helping them find their car keys. I’m talking about something that can’t be ignored.

I was talking to a guy today, a really nice guy. I’ve known him for years and he never before said anything religious to me. Until today and it was a whammy.

Today turned out pretty warm and sunny with lots of birds so I mentioned global warming. He said he didn’t believe in global warming. I asked him what he meant by that. He said god knows how the earth is going to end and nothing can happen to the earth no matter what we do to it. god controls the weather, not man.

It was the “no matter what we do to it” part that frightened me. We now have a man in the white house who holds the same opinion.

We are nearly at the point of no return now. We can’t keep this planet from turning into a global dystopia without sacrifices that few of us are willing to make. And the ones who claim that their god created this world are saying “fuck the planet.”
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.

I may defend your right to free speech, but i won't help you pass out flyers.

Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities.
