Question(s) for the Religious

RE: Question(s) for the Religious

So let me make this personal then stimbo. What if I were to say something depraved and reprobate about your precious loved one. Taking her memory in vein in a deliberate ruse to rile you. Now how do you feel about my freedom to say what I want?

I saw Jabba the Hut's wife on uk tv explaining to an atheist comedian how her personal relationship with Jesus was an emotional connection to her (I have to concur that it is to me too. I've shed a tear or two for the bloke I have to admit). The atheist got it, and understood his actions to be hurtful and wrong.

There would be no fun in you guys taking the piss as you do if it wasn't hurtful to someone. That's why you do it right? If it had no effect/ if no one could take offense, you'd have to find something else.

Maybe it shouldn't be that way, but you and I aren't that naive.

The bloke is a twat. I haven't seen one example of any ability. In every encounter with me he has simply made bare assertions. If you call that critical thinking, then I'll have to write to the OED to get them to re write the definition.
