More of my family's repugnant display of faith

[Jackalope]

he got to keep 25%, so he feels justified in saying that the money was blessed to him from god, since he got it by doing "god's work".

So, in other words, he did it for the money?

In the past, I've raised thousands of dollars for charitable causes, and never once did I even dream of wanting to keep even on cent of it.

But that's a godless immoral atheist for you.

[Kayenneh]

Yeah, I agree. I don't do charity often, but when I do, I could never dream of keeping some for myself. Despicable!

[Welsh cake]

If god isn't poor, why does it seem he's always short of cash?

Because god is an imaginary placebo whereas the rich crooks who daily sucker gullible people into believing he exists can never have enough money.

Besides if their god is the god of money, wealth and lies, I'd rather embrace the truth and retain my humanity, so I'll probably always be poor.

[Faith No More]

I don't know why he's raising money for Haiti. His god is the one that fucked them in the first place.

[Erinome]

I always thought Christians thought Haiti fucked themselves.

[thesummerqueen]

God supposedly punished Haiti, finally, for a pact they made with the devil or some shit like that. I don't know why God felt the need to punish them belatedly. It seems God's trigger finger is becoming slower with age, and also his aim is truly terrible.

Watch out Haiti...They're bringing the payne.

[DeistPaladin]

Full disclaimer that this is anecdotal experience and not based on statistical study:

So how come it is that every atheist I've known is a person of integrity and compassion while most Christians I've known are lying scumbags, disloyal unloving people, snotty bigots, narcissistic assholes or any combination thereof? Even prior to my interest in religion, I'd observed that the most staunch Christians were the most miserable excuses for human beings. At the time I'd hypothesized that they give all their love to Jesus and have none leftover for anyone else.

At the time I'd hypothesized that they give all their love to Jesus and have none leftover for anyone else.

I'd say that's a fair assessment, my dear.

I've long noticed that they only love people because the Bible told them to - they say it all the time.

Meanwhile I go about loving as many of you mangy mutts as I can because I happen to take delight in humanity...sad as it is. [shrugs]

[reverendjeremiah]

Wait...he's keeping money...from...donations? Even allowed...?

I can't. My brain can't do it. I've got to get another drink.

Why do you think religioous charities advertise so much...it is a profit making business.

thats why i tell most charities to piss off.

think of it...you cant use capitalism to fix poverty. The money is too easy. The money is too addictive.

Wait, is this guy implying that he is god?

*facepalm*

what is God... if not the ego?
