Okay, if you are a functioning member of society and engage in any online networking, chances are you've already seen this.
What a crock of shit. I'm so tired of people using this "Christianity isn't a religion, it's a personal relationship with God!!" Bullshit. This type of new age Christianity is nothing more than a movement of lazy people who don't want to adhere to the rules and regulations of their organized religion, and an easy way to be a lazy Christian. Don't want to take the time to go to church or read the bible? Just claim you have a personal relationship with god! Want to throw out the judgments without having to adhere to them? Just have a personal relationship with god!
It really kills me. These are the people who rear up when you tell them what hypocrites they are, and point out all their sin and say it doesn't matter because Jesus died on the cross so it's all forgiven as long as you believe in him and accept him as your savior. Then, when someone is convicted of a murder they sit back and make sanctimonious judgments about how they are going to burn in hell. Really? Not according to the rules you've made for yourself. Fuck, according to your rules, Hitler, a Roman Catholic, is sitting in heaven right now. But when you point out this fallacy suddenly they flip it, and you have to believe but you ALSO have to be a good person. So let me get this straight. You don't have to go to church even though the bible says you do. You don't have to tithe even though the bible says you do. You don't have to follow all those rules at all. You simply have to believe, and be a good person based on the moral rules that YOU make up in your own head. So what's the point of the bible again? When did god suddenly change his mind and decide that you were good enough to decide what was sin and what wasn't? I must have missed that part.
It's the evolution of faith baby. What started with cherry picking bible verses to fit their personal wants and hatreds and now evolved into making up your own rules, the only rule from the actual text, the RULE BOOK of your faith, is now simply believing.
Oh, and the part about being gay. Because every good buddy of Jesus knows the fags are going to burn.
Fuck off Christians.

But it's not the same rape!
Arguing with theists on Instagram has become more of a passtime than I would like. I have my normal IG account, then I have my troll account. Today I was posting screenshots from EvilBible about rape. I love getting bitches going about rape in the bible. It's there. It's fun because you can post quotes directly from the bible and watch them rage.
So I was posting the normal stuff, scriptures encourage the ravishing of women who were spared in the mass murder of people who oppose god, the rules on marrying your rapist after he pays your dad fifty bucks, and sex slaves, etc. I get a lot of angry reactions to these quotes. Mostly prayer threats. Today was interesting however. I had two girls telling me that the rape mentioned in this particular quote (Deuteronomy 22:23-24) and was told "It's not the same as rape now". She went on to tell me that it was speaking of the coming of Christ and that the armies would gather to attack enemies of Jerusalem and the men would be killed and the women raped. AND??
This was the facepalmiest moment I've ever had with a Christer. She literally apologizes for and rationalizes anything that is okay in the bible. Even rape. How scary is that? I promptly let her know that I expect that same rationalization if in the end we find out that the Muslims have it right and she's about to be gang raped by some magnificent army of Islam.
I went fishing by asking for bible quotes that either say slavery is wrong and immoral, or that women are equals (since the OT and NT seem to carry an equally disgusting view of women as property). All I got in return were cries of "You're wrong! It says in the bible over and over again that god loves me!". I asked again: "Please provide scripture that shows that women are to be treated as equals and are NOT to be sold by their fathers and used as sex slaves." "You're wrong! Stop talking to me you're getting on my nerves!" (All this on MY post to be clear.
Good times. jesus_ponies
