Something's fishy here...
Where did you copy/cut and paste your insult from? You know it plagiarism to copy someone else's work and not leave a source right?
So insult my intelligence i don't really care. Its not insults its a ration string of words used to describe most of theists in the U.S. and other areas who believe blindly in Christianity so If i were to call you a idiot by all means i would have put your user name in there. So i copied and pasted an insult no i haven't if i use something or copied and pasted it i would put the source at the bottom of it. When it comes to the bible however there is many articles and explanations as to why the bible plagiarized off of others cultures and gods. Horus and other deities like him were the reason why jesus was in the bible. The epic of gligamesh the reason why there is a flood myth in the bible. I can keep going on and on but i wont bother good day sir have a wonderful existence and happy after life if there is one.
It wasn't so much an insult but an observation describing the two polar opposite type of posts you can appearently produce. It seems you have practiced or given great thought to your insults and not so much to... Everything else.

We shouldn't 'fix it.'
We were set here and tasked with the mission to tame and subdue this world. We are activly doing that as far as I understand the term.
This world is not meant to last forever. We are told after the final judgement their will be a new heaven and a new earth, and the old heaven and earth will pass away.
What a wonderful avoidance of any responsibility to preserving the world for future generations. Goddamn that's distressing.
"we're supposed to exhaust and trample the world cuz that's what Gawd wants us to do, don't worry he'll give us a new one when the rapture comes"
What a crock of shit.
Yes!
And whether you agree with me or not, unless you unplug from the grid completely shun all mod cons, and adapt yourself to only eat naturally occouring vegetation that your region has in abundance, you are just a F & F hypocrite.
Because no matter what color we see in our mod cons they are not naturally occouring and as such require to be apart of a manufacturing process. The same manufacturing process that is stripping this planet of all its resources. Even simple farming of our perfered foods strips the soil of its natural resources, keeping naturally occouring plant life the material it needs to grow. That is why we use fertilizers.
So again either you have to get use to eating grass and tree bark, or accept that you not only love the command God gave us to subdue this world, that you don't know how to live any other way.

The 'great' atheist philosopher Voltaire said the same thing a couple hundred years ago.. "Christianity will be a dead 100 years after my death."
We print and distribute bibles out of his house.
