  • @SamWiseGingy Priest are terrorist!

  • @TABOOVSKNOWLEDGE

    Hell is terrorism straight up. When you threaten people with something there is no reason to believe in then that is just terrorism, and it makes people crazy.

  • @youmeandsomeknives Cool!!

    My mom was in mental agony that her son was going to burn in hell for all of eternity. The last two weeks, her dyeing of cancer, on her death bed, me on one side, the preacher that put that shit in her head on the other. He got my spiritual message & got the fuck out of there! If I ever see him again there will be a spiritual manifestation into the fiscal realm!

    Word to your Mother!

    

  • Thanks for your videos! I totally had the same experience when my friend brought me to church for the first time. After years of being saved, they all turned on me when I shared my stance on abortion, go figure.

  • I've mainly been offended by religion. It takes a heartbeat in most belief systems to go from brotherly love to murder.

    Indoctrination sucks huh?

    PS: For my mother to think things through, she'd be forced to think. Toughest thing she's ever done.

  • My religious friend tried to get me with some "history of rock and roll" thing at his church. I left 5 minutes in, and he embarrasingly came with me. We went for beers. I told him bluntly that if he wanted to be my friend, lying for his religion wasn't going to be an option. He apologised.

    15 years later, we're still best friends.

    I hope you wear your shirt around town. I have one too.

    If religion had merit, it wouldn't require subterfuge and social work to con people.

  • The only way for this sort of guilt, embarrassment, etc to end is for people to be open, frank, and unapologetic about their criticism of religion.

    More people have to think this through, rather than just go along "being nice" and not offending anyone.

  • It's taken my mother more than a decade to admit explicitly to me that she never really believed in a god. It seems she felt guilty about it and was embarassed to say it.
