Religious claims that get under your skin

"God spared me from (pick whatever) car wreck, fire, spree killer, hurricane, tornado, etc.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

RE: Religious claims that get under your skin
I know my religion is true because this one thing PROVES all of it !!


and of course that is backwards from how science works, one break in a chain of evidence fucks up the theory, for some reason when it comes to religion, you just need one proven link in their whole chain to PROVE all of them

That god is good/love/just/fair, etc. The bible says otherwise.

Yeah, if proving religion was as easy as one simple statement, we wouldn't still be debating the existence of god thousands of years after the jews started talking about him.

"Are you saying the billions of (insert religion here) are all wrong?" (Or other variations of the numbers fallacy).
"One day to god is a thousand/10,000 years for the rest of us". Then why are you praying if you're not going to get an answer for a thousand years?

That all you have to do is pray, and the space wizard will heal you of any disease. There was a Christian band I could not stand and still hate called "Newsboys" that had a song where some of the lyrics where "The kind of light that would make a Schizophrenic turn in his crayons, Oprah freaks and science seeks a rationale that shall excuse his strange behavior" My diagnosis at the time was Schizophrenia. I prayed many times and "the light" didn't do shit. When schizophrenics act a little odd, that's not a"rationale" that their brain disease is responsible, that's reality, you ignorant jackass! Even though that's no longer my diagnosis it still pisses me off. A major Christian band, at least in the late 90's was able to get away with lyrics that were hateful to the mentally ill, and nobody called them on it!

Someone prays to Virgin Mary or St. Jude and gets a positive result and boom! Why every jot and tittle of Catholicism is proven true !!

Praise Jesus !!

I suppose a christer will post something like "Well, when you say it like that it does sound stupid, but that's because you aren't doing it right (or something)."

It's amazing 'science' always seems to 'find' whatever it is funded for, and never the oppsite. Drich.

Religious claims that make me crazy?

Obvious unrepentant reprobates (like Trumpie) invoking/claiming God's manifest blessings and not being criticized by the religious folks in the country for his ERROR.
