I found a similar note under the wipers of my room-mate's car when I was out at Best Buy. More relevant to me was how it was saying atheists are the devil's soldiers and how all "true believers" must unite under a common flag to be ready to fight for the sanctity of our souls. And how convenient; the local Lutheran Baptist Church near where I used to live earlier in the year had all the supplies ready to equip these most holiest of warriors. *snrk* Namely, a bible and instructions on "how to witness." So naturally I did what any other inflammatory, aggressive heretic would do.
I took the slip of paper, went to the church at 2am, and nailed the note to their door with, literally, a nail and a hammer, and then scrawled in elegant, artistically-practiced cursive...
"Fuck you. Fuck your god. Fuck your christ. Fuck your pulpit. Fuck your priest. Do not touch my fucking car again or I will kneecap you all with a shotgun."
Will this incite anger towards atheists from this church? Maybe. Do I care? No. Everyone else may just let this shit slide. Unfortunately, I am tired of letting it slide. I am tired of it. I want to live my life without ever having to hear of this shit. But they won't leave me be. Fine. Then I'll be an aggressive, insulting, inciteful prick to them. I'm getting really tired of hearing nothing but bible-babble at every fucking turn.
Their mentality: "There are atheists in the world? THEY MUST NOT HAVE HEARD THE GOOD WORD ABOUT JEEBUS!!"
Our mentality: "No, fuckwit, we've heard TOO MUCH about Jeebus to the point we're all pretty fucking convinced he's a fucking myth; FUCK THE FUCK OFF."
But no. No. They can't fucking leave us be. They just want to fucking rant and ramble and burble their bullshit to us endlessly. They can't shut the fuck up and leave well enough alone. No, they see rising numbers of atheists and since the church no longer has the power to maintain an army of papal warriors and a force of dedicated inquisitors ready to stamp out any fucking heresy they see fit, they have to just scream as loud as they can. Well you know what? In any other situation, someone starts screaming at me eventually I'm going to scream back. That's how it is now. They can't shut the fuck up, they want to proselytize, babble their shit as they see fit, attaching their crap to the property of me and my fellow atheist room-mate? Well, let's see how they fucking like it. For the next three months I have pledged to nail an "I evolved, and so did you! Why Evolution is truth, and why the bible is bunk!" pamphlet to EVERY. SINGLE. FUCKING. CHURCH's main in the nearest 10 miles of my residence once every tree days for the next three months. I did my first round today, in fact. It is full of scientifically-backed info on why creationism is a load of shit and why evolution is inescapable truth, cartoony illustrations of monkeys becoming men, and Jesus wearing a robe that has the weeping-eye symbol of Horus symmetrically inked into it.
Let's see how much these fucking annoying assholes like it. Let's just fucking see. And you know what? Better yet! I'm gonna put these pamphlets under the windshields of every car parked in a church's parking lot!
Atheists have no need for proselytizing, it's true. But you know what, if I can get one poor uninformed brainwashed deluded soul to see the light of reason IT'LL ALL BE FUCKING WORTH IT! You know why? BECAUSE IT'LL BE ME SPITTING IN THE FACE OF ALL THESE PAPIST/PULPIT-BANGING IDIOTS. If my efforts can get one person to see the truth and to stop believing in lies, to accept the strength of will it requires to become an atheist, or at least question the world about them, it'll all be worth it. And every person after that is a bonus.
Difference between me and a preacher; I wield truth, logic, and reason. They wield lies, falsehoods, bigotry, ignorance, hate, and deceit. My weapon is just. Theirs...a hollow fucking lie meant to give power to those who have done nothing to deserve it.
