Or paying to pray that you'll get a sixpack.

A spiritual sixpack.

Women are just hot for that, I'm told.

No, they're only interested if you're a spiritual millionaire. Try it on a dating site "I've got no material wealth, but I'm a billionaire in terms of spiritual wealth". I bet they go crazy for it.

You've been hanging around with spiritual gold diggers. The chicks I date care about my spiritual body and like to emulate my workout routine to become as spiritually ripped as I am.

Some of the theists on Facebook... I don't know. I try to be patient with them but I feel like they really make my faith look bad.

Before you sleep tonight If you can type
Amen in 10 Seconds,
God will Surprise you with anything you
want by tomorrow. I
know 98% will Ignore this thinking that its
a Joke. God Bless
you as you share and Type AMEN

So then, what if God doesn't give someone exactly what they want by tomorrow morning, does that mean God isn't real?
And the bit about 98% of people thinking it's a "joke" really got me. WTF? 98% of people will think this is STUPID!!
3,300+ people liked that?

Or these people go on and say

I AM GOING TO BED NOW PEOPL AND WILL SEE YOU TOMOROW AT THE FARE SORRY FOR THE TYPOES I AM TIRED RIGHT NOW DON'TFORGET TO.PRAY TO JESUS!!!

Oh, and the way they mix faith and politics in the same posts drives me crazy.

If you love JESUS share this we need to put the Bible back in our schools!!!

Grr. I am perfectly content to love Jesus without forcing the government to indoctrinate kids in the Christian faith. What a heretic I am!

I apologize for ranting, but really... my reply to many of these Facebook theists is to ignore them. Maybe they'll mature, at some point. Hopefully they'll learn that they are not the great standard of right and wrong. And sometimes... I pray that they'll forget to vote until then.

No.... you don't go to church because you are ignorant of God's word."

If people react to poor behavior by theists with "that's why I don't go to church," I have to admit to finding that pretty silly. I don't go to church because I'm not religious.

Facebook lets you block or hide a lot of stuff now, makes it easier to deal with religious spam from relatives. My sister had put up an image related to the "God's Not Dead" movie that said something like:

I AM A CHRISTIAN
YOU CAN MOCK ME
YOU CAN HATE ME
BUT YOU CANNOT CHANGE MY MIND

I just shrugged my shoulders and blocked the content, because pointing out that "maybe people mock you because you admit to being close-minded" would have been less satisfying than it might seem at first glance, especially if she really felt that way.

They seem to think that posting about their faith in ALL CAPS will make them seem like better Christians. Personally, I think it makes them look less reasonable.

I always tell them that posting in all caps with multiple exclamation marks just makes them appear as a pretentious child stamping their foot and sulking.

They HATE that.
