The Problem with Christians

Denmark. It's like Godwin's law for Huggy.

A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost
I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.

The only one "emotionally invested" in that is the person harping on it literally more than a year after it happened, to the exclusion of any other subject. I'm beginning to suspect that that thread is a large part of your personality at this point. Do you dream about it, Huggy? How many pages of it have you made into inspirational posters? Do you need an intervention?  RE: The Problem with Christians

You make people miserable and there's nothing they can do about it, just like god.

Yes, being on the side of actual facts, ones not distorted by religious indoctrination/ideology, does tend to indicate a person is a skeptic...
...and we all know that skepticism is the gateway drug to outright atheism. (Edit to Add: And no, we're QUOTING DENMARK'S OFFICIAL WEBSITE ABOUT THEIR OWN NATION. That's not "making a case".)
