Those are excellent comments. On the nose.

I watched the first WWYD and thought it was an interesting social experiment. After that, I watched a few more and found it too uncomfortable and invasive. The "heart warming" responses begin to look too corny and over-produced, as well.
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:

"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."

For context, this is the previous verse:

"Hi Jesus" -robvalue

Oh yea, I totally do that all the fucking time, right after I get done roasting babies and and going on murder sprees because there's no morality without god.

This is fucking infuriating.

The only way this scenario could take place is in God Is Not Dead 3. I mean come the fuck on. This is just the regular persecution fetish porn christers have to make to blow their load, because this shit just does not happen in reality, no matter how much they wish it did. It serves only to satisfy their need to be offended and validate their beliefs by pointing at the big bad atheists.

Fuckheads. Whining about some perceived persecution that only occurs in their paranoia driven wet dreams all the while persecuting an actual minority who actually faces discrimination.

If you're in the majority of the population and claiming that the 5 fucking % of it - 5 ffs - is oppressing you, smack yourself on the fucking head.

I think it would be much more likely to see christians getting cranky if they saw a family of muslims praying to allah before a meal. Though I don't know if muslims actually do that. Your average atheist would not make a scene in a restaurant when they see a family having a quiet prayer. We're not the other side of the coin from christians.

At least they're getting taken to task on that Facebook page.

What would I do? I would look for the hidden camera.

I would also never eat at such a place ever again, as I don't like my dining experience disrupted by idiotic theatrics.

I do that all the time in restaurants in order to make my atheist liberal professor who's a gay racial minority proud of me. Also, because I hate America. And I do it after performing abortions and selling baby parts from those abortions.
