I think showing your hand right off the bat makes it easier.  We learn quickly what the intent is/was.

"Jesus/god loves you!"

"You haven't read the bible, have you?"

Playing Cluedo with my mum while I was at Uni:

"You did WHAT?  With WHO?  WHERE???"

If Jesus loves me, why has he never taken me out for a romantic dinner?

Another drive by? Meh, good tag fodder though.

Christianity - incomplete, lost, and broken.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Basically the internet equivalent of a religious pamphlet you'd find half-torn and folded up in a parking lot
"For the only way to eternal glory is a life lived in service of our Lord, FSM; Verily it is FSM who is the perfect being the name higher than all names, king of all kings and will bestow upon us all, one day, The great reclaiming"  -The Prophet Boiardi-

Remember: Jesus "died" for your sins, but there's still sin.

Thor fought the Frost Giants.  When was the last time you saw a Frost giant?

Enough said.

Hail Thor, Odinson.

[Dougal]I heard that it was simply that Yeshua had some really mad drugs at a weekend music festival and when he came home he had to sleep it off for 36 hours. His followers, still baked, thought he was dead and had a fit when he woke up and wandered off for some smokes and a big fry.[/Dougal]

A perfect Creator builds perfect creations. A perfect Carpenter doesn't build a crooked cabinet. He builds square, straight, and right. Accepting the imperfections of humans, and accepting your god as perfectly good and all-powerful, the only logical conclusion is that your god is not perfect -- or that he accepts human evils for what they are.

I don't believe you. Not much of a god if it can't tell me that to my face.

Quote:Jesus literally died for us.

Sucks to be him. Not my problem - I reject the concept of anyone at all dying for me, and I reject "salvation" unconditionally.
