The best place to troll is in news comment section. Mys77 rating as a troll to me is 5/10.

She seems pretty earnest to me.

What people cannot see (thanks to the misleading headline) is that this is a "win" for the Christers. The Satanic Temple can't hand out their terrible awful indoctrinating propaganda to our impressionable children!!!
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

The bible. Twilight isn't used as an excuse for war or limiting the rights of others

I just like non public school libraries, school libraries should not ban books. But using them as propaganda on campus outside of voluntary reading material, yes. I can see having a couple copies in the library but again, only a secular reading material. Not something to be used for indoctrination.

If believers want to hand out material as a sales pitch they can do it off campus grounds.

street pastors aren't allowed on campus grounds after an incident we are all just minding our own business and we have a fairly small study room so most of us study outside and in our cars he comes over starts bitching about jesus and god and how we are going to hell. After awhile he pissed off the wrong student she got upset mind you he had the nerve to tell her in front of her girlfriend they are going to hell because what they were doing was a sin and its bad. After that the cop on campus was like you can get a citation for disorder conduct or you can leave and don't come back.

It's strangely compelling. I'm not Steve, but I feel like I can say anything to Mys77 and he'll respond with something that makes Christianists look like dicks.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
