Being Made Fun of For NOT Belieiving...
September 28, 2011 at 6:50 pm
Posted on a FB friend's wall:
+1 for irony...posting a picture that is condescending to people who require at least some sort of proof in something...by someone, or a group of someones, that believes something for which there is ZERO proof, and they only believe it because they were told it was true by someone trying to get them to join their 'club'...
Let your anger be as a monkey in a piñata; hiding with the candy, hoping the children do not break through with a stick.

+2 for irony, for the fact that "they" use the word "magically"...to a group that rejects "magic" in favor of science, evidence, and logic...yet the premise of their argument IS magic!

Not willing to do that. I'm a teacher in a rural district in the bible belt...as is the spouse of that person. Word gets out...job goes away!

That post didn't make a goddamn bit of sense.

I like "Defend traditional marriage. Bring a cow for the dowry."

Min...I LOL'd...repeatedly.
Here was my "evil atheist" response...you can hear the intolerance, and evil spewing forth from my keyborad as I typeth'd it:
I can understand, and even support the defence of faith...but to actively seek out, mock, and belittle those with whom you disagree, specifically within the context of that disagreement is bordering offensive to any belief set. Wouldn't you feel a bit irritated if one of your FB friends called out all Christians with an unprovoked, derisive pictoral comment that chastized them based on their beliefs?
Personally...I take no offense at all; but then again, I have no reason to be offended by that. But...I was just a bit shocked that someone of your intelligence would cast such a condescendingly broad net.

You were shocked? Christian posted it right? I'm surprised that you were surprised.
