Is it just a coincidence or is EVERYONE turning to god instead of that Ferrari for their midlife crisis?!!?! i have been told by so many freaking people to... "go to church" or "you need god"
Please stop telling me what i NEED bc i know what i need. and it's not that. "God" is not gonna bring me what i need to live off of. your god merely watches from teh sidelines rather than doing what needs to be done.
stop talking about God like it's a real thing. like he is just gonna walk up to you and lay down the godly pimphand for saying "Jesus Christ!"
I hate reading a status update stating about the person's bad day and at least one person gives a statement like YOU NEED GOD... GO TO CHURCH. or when they have a good day GOD BLESS... or GOD WAS SHINING ON YOU THAT DAY! or someone taking the credit for your good day bc they 'prayed' for your day to be good... wtf is that shit.
I just can't bring myself to believe in anything remotely close to religion...whether it be christian or catholic beliefs or wiccan or buddist style beliefs... i can't even think of a religion that fits my lifestyle...
I didn't like going to my teachers for help or advice... why the hell would i wanna 'talk to myself' about it?
I hate having the kids at my aunt's house asking me if im gonna go to church with them on sunday... or when they sit down for their weekly family devotionals they look at me like im gonna run screaming from the room... even better.. one night my aunt put a movie on about god... from her church. it's like one of those amateur movies where a man plays god in a modern setting and a woman questions the usual questions but never ever gets a straight answer (stereotypical christian answers there)... but.. the kids turned to my aunt and was like... THIS IS A CHRISTIAN MOVIE *looks at riki* and my aunt was like... WHAT?! WHY WOULD OYU L.OOK AT RIKI WHEN YOU SAY THAT?! SHE CAN LEAVE THE ROOM IF IT BOTHERS HER THAT MUCH TO WATCH A MOVIE WITH US... i just laughed...
I watched most of it... it was like any other religious movie... so i left to talk on the phone.
It gets uncomfortable when i walk into something with my friend who was a big participater in EVERYTHING their church did and KNOWING i was being judged... she said i wasn't... but you don't see a shorthaired female with piercings and jeans in a church often. the older crowd always have something to say... just don't always say it... (not in earshot anyways)
Religious people are some of the most judgemental people i've ever met.
You are walking down the sidewalk and see a man wearing an old buttonup plaid shirt, worn dress slacks and a handful of pamphlets... he's either selling something or about to tell you you're going to burn for all eternity.
You go to an event that is 'out of the norm' (pride, tattoo, pornography convention)((lol))
and you'll see teh same thing.. but more aggressive and in your face about how you'll burn and nothing will save you unless you repent... and then you're not guaranteed... im sorry... i'd rather be happy NOW... and not miserable for 70+ years of conforming to your ridiculous rules...
i guess what this entire rant is about is
STOP SPOUTING YOUR GOD SHIT TO PEOPLE WHO DON'T NEED TO HEAR IT. DON'T WANT TO HEAR IT... OR TO THINGS THAT HAVE NOTHING OT DO WITH 'GOD'
and before someone corrects me and says 'god is everything. therefore everything has to do with god...' IM NOT RELIGIOUS. IM AN ATHIEST AND I WILL DISPROVE ANYTHING OYU HAVE TO SAY WITH NOT ONLY BOOK FACTS BUT certaintly not your halfassed answers of "read chapter? verse? for the answer" that's not an answer.
PS. your bible is lies. thanks.

As someone who was raised as a Christian and spent years at a private Christian school, I just have this to say.
Fundamentalist Christians are perhaps the most cruel and mean-spirited people you'll ever meet, and their gross ignorance (especially of science) makes me want to vomit. I shudder to think what I'd be like today if I hadn't gotten out of that school when I did...if I'd had the indoctrination poured into me for even longer...I'd probably still be like my parents, and that's a horrifying thought.
Every time a Christian criticizes my evil Atheism, just remind them of all of their god's atrocities, and ask if they agree with them. They seem to get especially uncomfortable with the story of Lot, for some reason...maybe it's because their anti-gay rants get shut down by reminding them that their god's idea of a good person is someone willing to throw his daughters out to a mob to be raped?
In any case, all religion is nothing more than fairy tales. Hell, even if God was real and the Bible was 100% accurate, I would never kneel to someone as murderous and barbaric as him.

Would you be creeped out if i said i think i love you? XD this is possibly the greatest answer... my rant about this on FB was responded to by the exact thing i was complaining about.
