Capt. Howdy's comment got me to thinking. I get a really good laugh out of all the Christians on Ray's blog yammering on about how they are going to go out into the world and do missionary work and witness to others about their religion when they can't even come to a place where there are 30 atheists just a click away because of some profanity and/or blasphemy. At least that's what they claim is the reason. Let's explore that for a moment.
I know this was addressed here not too long ago, but I think it bears repeating. What are you going to do out in the real world when faced with people who look you right in the eye and openly tell you how inane and stupid your religion is if you can't deal with it on a blog? Seriously, you've got a truck load of atheists at your fingertips and you are going to sit around and whine your asses off about how you just can't go to those awful atheist blogs because you might see a dirty word or a string of dirty words that you don't like. The only thing you have done by hiding behind that excuse is to witness to others that your faith is so weak and fragile that it can't hold up in the face of a few words you deem as being profane. Your god must love cowards.
It appears to me that the real reason you don't come here or to other atheist blogs is that you hide behind Jesus' skirt tail to mask the real problem which is that you are bigots for Christ. You want to do all this witnessing and missionary work in the coziness of your soft little censored world where nothing ever disagrees with you and where you never get challenged. You sit around telling people that disagree with you that they are going off to a fiery furnace forever, but you really don't believe that. You just don't like people that don't believe exactly as you do and hell is just a way for you to be arrogant and condescending towards them. You take the 'Oh I'm going to heaven and you're going to hell. Nah Nah NAH!' approach so that you can feel better about yourself. But you know what? That's fine with me. At least it shows what you are made of which is nothing but loads of cowardice and fail.
And when you go out into the real world and try your little witnessing techniques on somebody on a street corner and they scream at you or yell a profanity in your face and you run home in tears to call out for consolation to your invisible friend, maybe you'll remember that there was a perfectly good training ground right in front of you the whole time and you passed it up because you couldn't deal with it.
I know that there are some Christians that don't want to answer some of the questions that have been posed in recent posts here because Silent Dave has said that his ultimate goal is to deconvert you from Christianity. Fine. But Brittany, Cynthia and Patti at least have the balls to come over here and address us. They know we don't agree with them, but they grew a set and waded into the shark infested waters anyway. I have a lot of respect for that, even if I disagree with every single nuance of their theology.
There's been some talk here lately about how if we want Christians to come here then we need to not use profanity and take it easy on them. Fuck that. Whether or not I use profanity is a personal choice, but if I unleash some of it on you because you say something stupid and vile (Hello, Jean!) then don't get all ass sore over it. It's about your batshit crazy beliefs, it's not personal. I don't even know you so how could it be personal ?? And so what if it was ?? Are you going to run, cry and cower every time someone says something you don't like or that has a sting to it?
These were just some thoughts I had at roughly 3am. If you think I'm wrong then tell me I'm wrong, but for the love of Da Jeeeezus, don't sit there and whine about about how no one takes your witnessing and missionary work seriously if you can't even handle something written on a damn blog.
