Should we respect Religion?

Is there something you're not telling us? This combined with the 'powerful quote' thread suggests you are looking for permission to be a cunt. Jim Jeffries only said TRY not to be a cunt. Sometimes being a cunt is warranted. Take for instance this past Saturday.

I'm busy getting to know my wife of 18 years a little better at 9am and the doorbell rings. I of course ignore it, only to get pushed off for the sake of very localized 'homeland security'. Now, imagine my demeanor. Also visualize the fact that I carry two stone between my belt and diaphram.

I went downstairs, opened the garage door, lit a smoke, cracked a beer, drug my nose across my radius and asked the clean cut men in suits, "What the fuck do you want?". These assholes then proved they were the fastest humans with external tibial rotation. Impressive actually.

Moral of the story: if you are subjected to the occasional 'have a blessed day' bullshit, let it go. If the same asshole wants to 'witness' Jesus to you, drop the gloves and start swinging.

I never express my thoughts on the 'powerful quote' thread you only interpreted it that way, I said I was stunned, I never said if I liked it or not. You only interrupt it that way.
"Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by the rulers as useful" - Edward Gibbon (Offen misattributed to Lucius Annaeus Seneca or Seneca the Younger) (Thanks to apophenia for the correction)
'I am driven by two main philosophies:
Know more about the world than I knew yesterday and lessen the suffering of others. You'd be surprised how far that gets you' - Neil deGrasse Tyson
"Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on or by imbeciles who really mean it." - Mark Twain
