Oh..no..no, wait, that's the jesus freaks, again.
To make statements like mine, Max, you'd have to possess a competence far beyond anything you're capable of. The sad thing..is that it's not because I'm particularly smart...but more to the effect of your being particularly silly.
Yep, going out of your way to annoy people. Door knocking, silly bake sales, and whatever else they come with as to mock others or suggest they are somehow inferior.
Atheist don't bother me and are fine by me as sure as the next person. Annoying atheists, on the flip-side, are in a category of their own.

I guess we'll have to add satire and parody to the list of things you're wholly ignorant of?

The notion that sexuality makes someone 'impure' is one of the sickest ones I have encountered.

I'm not ignorant of it. I just don't care for a lot of it. Satire often creates more problems than it solves.

Whose notion is that? Your notion?

Um, no. It is one I have found to be quite common. The whole terminology of a 'purity' ball just enforces that horrid notion.

Yeah purity ball is nothing more than slut-shaming.
What does this mean for women who are touched by men? Are their conceptions corrupted? Are their characters and bodies now impure or unchaste? Have they been “defiled”?
People describe first experience of sexual intimacy as “Losing my virginity.” What exactly has been “lost”? Every time we begin a new phase in our lives—starting up a career, buying our first home, having our first child—we feel a sense of achievement, a sense that we’re gaining something, starting a new chapter, making progress. Why is the exploration of one’s sexuality, the beginning of one’s sexual life, an almost universally cherished feature of human existence, registered as a “loss”?
Is all woman's beauty, sanctity, chastity, and innocence confined to her vagina?
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
