Are all preachers dicks?

RE: Are all preachers dicks?
I've known a wide variety of clergy in my life and while it is true that the majority of them tend towards a rather severe dickishness, there are a few that seem to go about doing 'good works' without the proselytizing that normally comes with the profession.

So...no, not ALL preachers are dicks.

Saying 'religion lacks evidence' is not being a dick, it's just reality... Sometimes theists think a mere critic is a persecution when it's not. Just because I point out flaws in your religion, that doesn't make me a dick, I don't hate you for believing.

I'm not a dick, I don't want to take away people's rights, but if they come preaching and annoying me, be ready for some heated up debate and a defeat.

Defeat is what every theist will feel if they challenge me

Oh lord. *Losty rolls her eyes*


Anyways, I don't think all preachers are dicks. I've known some who are very kind.
Some people are dicks and some aren't, some people are only dicks sometimes while other times they are not.

I think those words are good to finish off this thread, you said it in a nutshell.

No, I don't believe all preachers are dicks. I've known a few who were genuinely kind, good-natured, and surprisingly nonjudgmental.

If they were not judgmental, then they would engage in conversation instead of preach. Preaching is an act that is intrinsically judgment, irrespective of what gloss the preacher puts on it in an effort to avoid the taint normally associated with preachers.

But you are right. They are not all dicks. Some of them are cunts.

RE: Are all preachers dicks?
To clarify my OP.
I meant, do preachers literally represent the reproductive organs of religion.
I think they do.
They may or may not also be jerks, that being another definition of the slang term 'dick.' Some dicks are very pleasant and useful.Naughty
So how, exactly, does God know that She's NOT a brain in a vat? Huh
