It behooves us all to challenge religion at every turn, theocracies throughout history always turn out very badly for a large portion of the populace. Always.
So . . . Calling an imaginary god a wanker is a boost to your stature and self-pride? Because i don't see anything in it that challenges religion other than it being just a juvenile hobby
No, dummy. We're calling YOU a wanker for fervently believing nonsense. I don't give a fuck about your imaginary god.

It's hard not to be. Billions of people get on their knees before you - not even Ron Jeremy attained that. Millions donate Billions in your name. People wearing sheets around their body and head run around defending your honor. Magnificent buildings are constructed in your name. People pray to you all the time asking for a favoritism - to just see it their way. It's a tough job, especially when you don't exist.
“Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?”
Epicurus
I tell you what, I'll cut god a deal. If he cuts off one of my arms right now with lightning or something, I'll get down and worship him. He has 1 minute.

If I called your imaginary God a wanker, or say drew a cartoon of him would this upset you? Does it make you fighting mad? Piss you off?
Emotional reactions such as having your feelings hurt or your self-pride challenged or becoming violent when your imaginary god is insulted has to be the ultimate juvenile response.

We...we don’t give a fuck about your imaginary god.

Normally I wouldn't answer something like this but since you added Je Suis Charlie at the end I'm hinting that you are comparing me to those fanatics. And I don't think I'm entirely okay with that.
I didn't say my feelings are hurt, you assumed they've been hurt. Well guess what . . . I wasn't angry with the OP. I was just wondering why.
Though I can't say I'm not angry now that you think I'm like one of those fanatics.

Thank you, I appreciate the harsh words though I don't get why you would go to that extent
Sometimes knocking quietly doesn't get the old bat inside to answer the door. Perhaps that's why?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies.

I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

On this forum it's usually something disgusting. Lol. I never needed nor did I ever want to know anything about the existence of cuntflakes or the possibility of the existence of women filthy enough to be going around flaking :vomit:
Why would there be a scab in the first place!?

Which god?
(KJV) Psalms 82.1 God standeth in the congregation of the mighty; he judgeth among the gods.
You, not a mythical god, are the author of your book of life, make it one worth reading..and living.

You think it's childish and juvenile. It doesn't hurt your feelings. Yet...you're still in this thread. Why?

I added Je suis Charlie to make my point, not to compare you to them. I don’t know you and that would be an unfair and uninformed accusation.
