Many people here must remember the shrill reaction many Christians had to the Dungeons and Dragons craze in the 1980s. My wife and I were big into D & D. One time we had termite exterminators over. One of them freaked out when he saw a bunch of D & D stuff on a table including a book called, "Delian Book of the Dead." My wife was away at the time. When she got home, I told her about the one guy's reaction and she loudly remarked that she was going to start digging the sacrificial pit in the back yard, lol. I always wondered if the guy prayed for us and talked about us in church.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

And Christians believe in demons because Jesus believed in demons. Jesus believed in every bullshit there was (he even believed in the evil eye), and Christians are set to be as gullible as he was.
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"

Not only is this brutal execution glorified, but according to their own doctrine they are sacrificing an innocent as a scapegoat. It is no different from Aztecs tearing out the hearts of virgins, boiled down.

I think killing Jesus to redeem mankind, as a Christian fundament, is one of the most obnoxious things.

Of course, he wasn't really dead, he only had a weekend trip to some island, then popped back up to wag his finger at you. Little cunt.

But yeah, modern Christians loooove the fact that they need not answer for their bullshittery.

Sacrifice?  he got better in 3 days and then went home, more an inconvenience than a sacrifice!

Never underestimate the power of very stupid people in large groups
