Stupid things religious people say

[Fake Messiah]

If I ever saw a man next to me praying to a god to save him I'd box him over the ears until he came back to his senses and picked up his weapon...but here's the thing..I never did. Never once did I see a christian soldier praying to god when he should be working for uncle sam. I guess it must happen somewhere sometimes...but, ideally, that shit gets handled before or after action.

Ha! I just watched a documentary about Samuel Fuller who said that soldiers never pray during battle (he was in WW2).

Wow, so women that don't follow Christian morality are literally whores selling themselves, or at least this is what Louise Perry claims who is known for her anti-feminism books and articles featured in Christian outlets

Louise Perry points to the greater danger to women from a new kind of post-Christian morality, which, she argues, bears a strong resemblance to the morality of the pagan world before Christians introduce a new sexual ethic with its roots in Judaism:

In historical terms, it is the Christian system of sexual ethics that is an aberration. What the historian Kyle Harper describes as the “first sexual revolution” emerged in a society in which Roman men enjoyed unrestricted sexual access to their social inferiors. The Roman marriage system may (unusually) have been monogamous, but it looked radically different to the monogamous system that existed until recently in our own society, and their sexual morality was even stranger. High-status women were expected carefully to guard their chastity, but all other women were potentially ripe for the picking, whether or not they wanted to be. This was a slave society, after all.

Christians demanded chastity, not only from women, but also—radically, infuriatingly—from men, too. The advent of Christianity really did constitute a sexual revolution, which is exactly why its early converts were disproportionately female, and why the majority of the world’s Christians are female still. No wonder Nietzsche described Christianity as a religion of “women and slaves.” (He did not intend this as a compliment.)

Modern feminism is not an enemy of Christianity; it is its descendent. The moral ideas that form the basis of feminism are derived from Christian values that are, in historical terms, highly unusual.

But the truth is that in the Christian society women were "potentially ripe for the picking" because they had a very low chance of finding a job, so the only thing that they had was prostitution.

Guess who changed that and fought for women's equality in the job market?

a) it was pope
b) nuns
c) feminists and suffragettes

We are ever thinking, though, aren't we? It's quite possible to pray while physically moving, or to be praying in a manner that no one can perceive.

I would think so, but it doesn't really fit the setup.  Where some storm rolls in and suddenly you'd see atheists praying to gods.  It's a fantasy about dramatic and sudden conversions affirming their worldviews, not entirely unlike the fantasies in gospels and acts.  Even the choice of a storm calls back to a thematically important story about the time god-man booked a three hour tour on the ss minnow.

Go over to the "why you can't find god" thread and look for everything posted by MilliVanilli.

Pretty much all fits in here.
