L.B. Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 I don't know how to submit a 'Rant', so I thought I'd use this form and let you do with it what you want... ******************************************************************************** ******************************************************************************** ************ You know, I am sick and tired of one of the most worn-out arguments that Xtians use when they are dealing with people who don't believe anymore: "Stop looking at imperfect people; look at 'god' instead." Guess what, people? I don't WANT to stop looking at people. YOUR fucking bible says YOU are supposed to be 'salt' and 'light' in the world. YOUR fucking bible says you are supposed to be wise as serpents and harmless as doves. YOUR fucking bible says you are to love your enemies and turn the other cheek. In short, it's not MY fucking fault that there are all these commands in your bible that YOUR people can't fucking follow. YOU are supposed to BE, in every area of your life, what Jayzus is like. YOU are supposed to be the ones demonstrating for the rest of the world what 'life in Christ-almighty' is supposed to be like. YOU are supposed to be showing the world what a little taste of the 'kingdom of god' is all about. DON'T, please, for shit's sake, DON'T cry to me that 'people are imperfect'. FUCK that and YOU, too. You sons of bitches LIED. Straight up, no need for grease, you FUCKED us. Told us that some fucking ghostie was dwelling in us and making it possible for us to live this life you claim is available to us. When the fuck did I ever, EVER attend a church where there wasn't fucking drama and bullshit to wade through, up to my god-damned knees? "well, sniff, sniff... the bible says the early church had problems too..." Whoop-dee-fucking-doo... NOW you're blaming the fucking apostles, who obviously couldn't keep shit straight, either. You know who I blamed for acting like a religious asshole all the years I did? ME. That's who. I don't fucking blame anyone else... I swallowed the Xtian bullshit line and I rammed it down everyone else's throats, too. I fucking marginalized and rejected people who lived differently than I, all because I really thought I WAS living differently. What a fucking crock. NO. From now on, NO. I WON'T stop looking at the fuck-ups who populate your little brainwashed zoo in the name of your jayzus. When you can finally show love without condemnation, trust without conditions or sideways glances, and faith without fucking concrete asshole dogmas, THEN I will leave you the fuck alone. Till then, your sorry asses are on display for the whole fucking world to see, and no pope or pastor is gonna explain away the FACT that millions of people are fed up with your hypocrisy. Where the fuck has your god-da-fodder, jayzus h chrysanthemum and the ghostie 'trinity' been? I know one thing for sure... REAL friends don't let friends get their asses kicked without jumping in, and TRUE friends wouldn't let you pricks be such fake-ass liars without calling you on it. Maybe jaysuz did to you what you did to us... turned around and walked the fuck away. Maybe, just maybe... I'm more of a friend to you than your jayzus is... at least I'm sticking around and telling you the truth. Until that day when the money meets the mouth, SHUT THE FUCK UP.

pitchu Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 As Brother Jeff would say, "Glory!" Now this is what the rant section is for. I fumed and steamed and spewed like a salted snail during my first few months here, as did many of us, L.B. It's good to see the tradition continuing. Rant on!

bush country Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 L.B. - you may not know how to submit a rant but you did a damn fine job of it! Spot on in pointing out that there should be some difference in the behavior of "believers". They blab on and on about how christ changes people and continue with the same old bullshit.

R. S. Martin Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 Right on, L.B. Have I ever hated that line! They'd preach till they're blue in the face about how much better people are if they beleive in god and have Jesus. Then I point out that atheists and agnostics are just as good people and what do they say? It's not about being good. God works in mysterious ways. Christians aren't perfect--just forgiven. When I was a Christian desperately seeking a reason to keep on believing, that's the shit they fed me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R. S. Martin Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 L.B., if you are like me you like to know what worked and what didn't work. I think your email got in to the webmaster. There's another post on here that is very similar to this one. I think it's the same. And if you click on the link at the bottom it will probably take you to the front page where there could be a separate set of comments. I didn't look but sometimes there are.
