It's pretty apparent from our resident xtian assholes that this is exactly what they think.
Infantile notions make up the bulk of religious "thought" and I don't give a fuck how mean it sounds.
Xtians need to grow the fuck up.
Well I am not that insensitive to know it is offensive. Human nature unfortunately ON ANY subject has us protecting our ego more often than our ability of self introspection.
But you are right, and not just with Christianity, but all religions and all superstitions and all flat out naked assertions.
It is mean, but for a reason. It is cold water being thrown on the face of bad logic. Just like it might be jaring to that driver to be shouted at "FUCKING STOP YOU ARE ABOUT TO RUN A RED LIGHT". Shocking and jarring and offensive, yes. But not because we should hate our fellow humans, just the flawed logic they use to come to their absurd conclusions that have giving birth to myths and superstitions throughout our oral and written existence.
The theist says "love the sinner not the sin"
The skeptics version "you can like the claimant without liking the claim itself".
But don't limit "grow up" to just christianity. Extend it to any person with any god claim, or even the bullshit conspiracies of UFOs or JFK or pantheism or any woo.
The great thing about scientific method is that it is a universal filter that acts as quality control, when used as intended, insures that our personal biasas and predilections don't screw up the data or formual.
The other good thing about it is that once a claim IN science has had the shit kicked out of it so much and been verified by indepenant sources, it goes way beyond a naked assertion and becomes solid fact.
Humans simply need to grow up, not one religion and not even always about religion. Claiming is one thing, that will happen regardless. While ones right to make any claim they want should not be stopped, that does not mean the claim itself deserves blind value.
I fear more the insecurities of others than the fact those same people make claims I find absurd. Go ahead and make any claim you want, just dont expect others to give it blind value or treat it with kid gloves. Claims that gain value don't need protection. Claims that gain value are the ones that take the heat and the beating.
