This is a flying visit; I just thought that some of you would appreciate this.
One of our admins was posting a lot of anti-christian memes, which was getting our christian members all bent out of shape. I don't typically post that sort of stuff, as it's primarily an art and social justice page. Plus, the arguments that ensue are old and don't achieve anything. Anyway, he was taking a lot of flack, mostly from christians, telling him that the bible was chock full of examples of how great, loving, merciful and kind their god is. The cherry picking was really pissing me off, so I posted this as a status:
I had to post shortly after that it wasn't real, as a lot of people were taking it seriously. We lost a few members when I revealed that it was a fabrication too, but I think I got the point across.

Quote:I've just received news via a very reliable anon source that a major government, endorsed by its people, is planning to cause a huge flood that will result in the deaths of thousands, if not millions of people. We're talking about men, women, children and anything living that gets in the way.
My source won't reveal who the government is, however, they have confirmed that this particular government is usually loving, merciful and forgiving of their enemies. Apparently this government acts very inconsistently; almost as though there are a number of different leaders, portrayed as the same person.
I asked my source why the government isn't just targeting their enemies but the innocents as well, and they reported that the government knows that these innocents will eventually turn on them too. This is also the reason that my source gives for the people excusing this genocide. Not everyone will perish, however, as the government has favored a few people and forewarned them of the impending attack.
Isn't that one of the most horrible things you have ever heard?
