The Christians are Evil?

[The_Q]

I found this on GaiaOnline while I was looking for kicks in their Extended Discussion mockery of CT. This actually intrigued me and I dare not share my thoughts before I post it up for a while.

I have been on Gaia now for about a year and a half with the exception of about a six month absence. I've always been an EDer and am always sure to take time to look at a variety of threads ranging from ridiculous to just plain stupid. But, if you search my posts I have never started my own topic. Never. Not once. Well here you go. It's my turn to reply to all of you imbeciles. My virginity is about to be stolen.


Christianity. There are many different denominations of it but it is all evil. Every single one. Catholics, Baptists, Presbyterians and even the followers who have no denomination are evil. How do I know this? Well it must be true! Here are just a sample of topics in Extended Discussion:

Religion: Possibly the cause for everything bad on earth?
Religion, GET OUT OF SCIENCE CLASSES!
Christian Music Ads

Now if you read the topics that talk about "religion" they are typically bashing Christians. I know that the huge axis of evil Christianity has created is engulfing the earth but why must everybody scream it from the rooftops? Oh wait! I know why...the people who are saying this are pissy little teenagers trying to rebel and be an individual. Yeah right...be an individual. It's cool to wear black, be depressed, hate the government and hate God. Why? I think it's because these kids like to be unhappy. I know God has cursed you with a horrible life where your parents care too much and don't want you to have sex at 12 and high school teachers try to get you to learn what you really need to know. Maybe since God cursed you now you want to retaliate and curse Him. But wait...there's more reasons for you to be upset. Christians come to your door and force you to listen to them talk about this evil, horrible God. They're just pretending to give you hope so they can burn it all to the ground. And those Christian music advertisements...don't get me started about them. The kids they have dancing around acting happy? Totally inappropriate. The FCC really needs to do something about that type of stuff. Have you heard those lyrics? Geez. They make any person blush. And that crap about our nation being based on Christianity and God? What a load of bull! I bet you who ever wrote "One nation under God" in the Pledge of Allegiance was just dyslexic...he probably meant to write dog. Let's not forget the wicked Christian charities: The Salvation Army, Feed the Children, Warm Blankets Orphan Care International. The Salvation Army...always trying to steal your money at Christmas time. They probably give it to stupid homeless people who don't have food or something like that. Who needs Feed the Children? The starving kids in other countries should have to find food themselves! And don't even bring up Warm Blankets...those kids are orphans for a reason. The small churches who give food to hungry families are just as horrible. Why slip a small bible in with a box of food? The people just want the food!

Seriously, why is it horrible to be Christian? I understand that everyone has the right to choose their own religion and I respect that. But, you don't have the right to speak negatively about us and put us all in a bad stereotype. There isn't a thing wrong with wanting to show compassion to people less fortunate. What about the groups who hate the Christians? Have you heard about them helping out? I haven't heard about Pissy Teenagers Full of Angst helping anybody. The Atheists Food Program...haven't seen them in the news lately. And I can't forget about Anarchists for the Homeless...wait a minute, yes I can. They don't exist. My point is simply that you don't have to agree with my religion but you can at least appreciate the good that Christians have done for the world. We're not perfect, we make mistakes. You sure as hell aren't perfect either. If you don't like our religion, turn the other way! Ask the people who knock on your door to politely leave. You don't even have to donate to our charities! Quit making it sound like we're corrupting the world. What's wrong with Christian music advertisements? There can be women all over the television with their thongs and their butts hanging out with some rapper singing "I slapped my ho and she gave me head" but somebody can't be happy with their religion?! Give it a rest people!

And by the way, anarchy would never work so you little teeny boppers need to quit bashing Bush. You have the right to your opinion but "bush sux!!!111!1!!11" isn't one. Grow up and learn the issues. Until then, shut the hell up.

What do I want? I want respect. That's it. Don't agree with me just respect me. I'm a 19 year old female white Republican Christian college student living in sin with my boyfriend. I have a dirty mouth with a horrible cursing habit. I'm not perfect. I'm not the perfect Christian.

BUT, I'm not bashing you. I'm not degrading you because you're Jewish or Arab. I'm not even laughing at you because you think "bush sux" and anarchy is the way of the future. Give credit where it is due: Christians help the world.

Grow up and quit bashing the Christians. They've done a hell of a lot more than you have. Give us a break damnit.

This post was written by a Mysheli, so don't give me credit or blame me for it. I just found it.

How was this piece of work on Gaia.

Tell that girl to get her ass out of there.

RE: The Christians are Evil?

Well, I personally am not realigious. I actually like learning. I look at those people who are barely passing and think to myself, "Sure, school isn't fun but it sure is nice to know things unlike that guy over there." I don't believe in God just because in my opinion, it makes more sense that we were evolved from primates.

The only way i could possibly believe in God is if it went like this: God put a bunch of stars (I don't know exactly) out in the Universe. They started to spread apart. blah blah blah, single cell organisms show up on Earth. Of course there wouldn't be any divine intervention.

Ramonesfan, I think you completely missed the point of that.

I agree with it. Yes, people are entitled to their own opinions, but even then, you can't deny the good Christians have done. Of course, there are negative things as well, but you'll have that with anything. The good far outweighs the bad.

Q, get that person on FFR. I don't agree with all she said, but it is nice to see someone who has a brain. It seems to be getting rare these days.

RE: The Christians are Evil?

someone needs to enlighten her to the FSM

I agree that the religion bashing needs to stop. The age on earth where everybody argues on which religion is better and tries to kill people over it is over. That was at least one hundred years ago, at the least. Nobody (except for those crazy terrorist folk) really tries to force their religion on anyone else.

I am personally not a Christian. I'm a Hindu/FSMist (yes you can be both)
I also have nothing against TV ads like the christian children and stuff. I just don't think it is really a useful ad because not many people are THAT religious any more. Slapping a religion on a perfectly good charity doesnt seem to help it as much as it hurts it. It should focus more on the charity and less on the religion.

I, like ramonesfan, like learning. I do know a lot about the scientific way of thinking, but I can distinguish between the two perfectly well. I realize that the theories clash completely, but I accept that this will never be resolved. Religion will be religion and science will be science. Whenever I am learning about Science, I keep religion out. Some people just have issues doing this. And vice-versa. When learning about religion, you cant really throw in science because it contradicts (and the people teaching get mad). My dad is actually a really religious Hindu guy and he makes it very clear that he is basically anti-Darwin. He puts his religion over science. I, on the other hand, dont put either over the other. Its not that I try to keep them balanced either, because that doesnt work very well. I just keep them completely different, because they can't fit together, ever. Religion is based on faith in a superior being, and Science is based on evidence. Evidence and faith are two things that will never go together. You will never find evidence of a god and you will never get a good scientific theory on faith.
Honestly I dont know how I rambled into science, but whatever

Negative, when you say negative do you mean horrible butcheries and torment? If so then yes. The Spanish inquisition and the crusades are the foundation of the horrible atrocities Christianity has wrought on other religions. Yes religion in general is good because it gives people morals, but religion to me seems more about control than about anything else. I think that the world needs religion, but I also think its excessive.

RE: Re: RE: The Christians are Evil?

Oh, come on. The violent past of Christianity is completely irrelevant. The girl was talking about present-day Christianity and how it's talked about (in such a community) today.

You still can't deny the good Christians have done. Sure, there were some really bad ideas in its name five hundred years ago, but that's obviously not the point of her post.

Televangelism.

I rest my case.

RE: Re: RE: The Christians are Evil?

Really, Christian bashing is just too easy. That's why I stopped.

Oh ho ho, just kidding, I havent stopped.

But seriously though, I have nothing against Christianity and Christians. What I dont like is the "moral superiority" some Christians flaunt in front of science and other subjects that they disagree with. I mean, afterall, America is not supposed to be a country that caters to only Christians, so perhaps they should stop acting like it is.

I fail to see the good Christians have done, aside from the usual, helping neighbors and the basic things any other person can do, Christians are a bunch of hypocrites IMO. How can you praise God one minute, and call someone a ****** of chink the next minute? Not to mention all this missionary bullshit, they call it "spreading the word of God" but theyre just like Jehovas Witnesses (no offense, just making an example XD). They go over to other countries and tell them their God is wrong and theyll go to hell if they dont choose God, who are we to say that Buddah isnt the TRUE God? Who are we to say that Allah doesnt exist?

I just dont like Religon, i believe in God, but i dont belong to any religous "groups"


just my opinions, and yea, we need more intelligence around here. DOWN WITH N))BS!

RE: Re: RE: The Christians are Evil?

Do any of you know that the reason people began to follow Buddha was because Indians were looking for Jesus and they ran into a man who taught almost like Jesus, therefore worshipping Buddha. Little known fact.

I'm tired of being bashed just because I'm a Christian (and darned proud too). "OMG God doesn't exist111OMGROFL" We never said anyone had to accept our beliefs. We put the word out and its your choice if you want to accept it or not. Now when I say we I mean Christians. The Catholics (which my father is) have offended me by making a homosexual a head priest. Now I have nothing against gays because I have gay friends, but why have someone head a church wehn it clearly says in the bible in Deuteronomy I think, that a man shall not lie with another man. I find that strangely retarded.

RE: Re: RE: The Christians are Evil?

As far as I can remember, Hinduism is one of the few big religions that doesnt have a past of just forcing other people to join the religion. Thats why its relatively peaceful and nobody bashes it. They don't have any history of pushing religions on people and they still don't do it now. Thats also why everybody doesn't know their inner workings like other religions. For Example, I (a Hindu) basically know how Christianity and Judaism work completely. And I have a pretty good grasp of how Islam is as well. But the average person from those religions wouldnt know about Hinduism. The reason is, Christians still (not forcefully like before) but still push their religion by putting stuff in advertisements on regular places (I.E. not the christian channel). Most common hotels have a bible in the drawer, but why dont they have a torah,koran,mahabharata etc.? Christian religion (because its the most common religion) still seems to think it is more important and put ads for themselves (not christians, but christian related things) in places where it is well known that not only Christians are exposed to.
And don't say that everyone else can do it to so its fair. For any other religion it would be a waste of money. Christians are still spreading word about their religion, even if they dont know they are. Others aren't
