Things Fundies Say On Facebook


Brother Jeff

Recommended Posts

I'm with kolaida. I just can't even begin to process that kind of judgmental thinking. If that is the choice those parents made, then that was THEIR choice. But to insist that EVERYONE make the same choice is ghastly and inhumane.

I suppose it's possible that it was a pro-choice meme that got inadvertently picked up by clueless fundies who thought it was anti-abortion.

It would have been a particularly nasty pro choice meme.

Share this, or the angels are going to GET YOU.  You are being TESTED. Wendywhatever.gif

 

... can't get the graphic in here, so here's the text (grammatical errors and all):

 

pssstttt, Hey you.  Yeah i mean you.  If you have taken a minute to read this.  The angels have seen you struggling with something.  The angels say its over.  A blessing is coming your way.  If you believe in angels, send this message on.  Please don't ignore it.  You are being tested.  The angels are going to fix two (big) things in your favor.  If you believe in angels.  Drop everything and

Share it.

 

 

I am so surprised it didn't read "A blessing is coming you're way."

That's the impression I got. I think it's reprehensible either way.

Tragic birth defects were just one more thing that led me away from believing there is a benevolent god of any kind. Only a horrible monster or an uncaring, unfeeling, natural world would allow things like that to happen. I console myself in believing that the latter must be true, because I couldn't face the possibility of the former being reality.

true. using someone like that to push your own ideological barrow is the lowest of the low, surely.

If that's Juliana Wetmore, that's exactly what happened. She's the worst case of Treacher-Collins in history--born lacking about half the bones in her skull--and here's the cosmic horror, here's the Lovecraftian ghastliness in all its dark madness: She's not brain damaged.

 

Oh no. Whatever deity did this to her also saw fit to give her a fully-functional brain to go with that body. She's perfectly capable of seeing and noting her deformity; perfectly capable of understanding and comprehending the horror of her existence. Oh, I'm sure she gives thanks every single goddamned day for her life, every year after her 20-30

operations, every million dollars her parents get charged for her care (by

the age of about 3 she'd racked up some $3MILLION--think her parents

will be paying that?).

 

And some fucking FUNDIE, some completely oblivious bubble-living ASSHOLE, decided to exploit her for a soulless political agenda and make points with a bunch of other chirpy fundies. ANY LIFE IS GOOD LIFE,

huh? Fine, fundies. You fuckin' try it.

 

I've got no way to process cruelty like this.

That kid will never be Miss America because of the way she looks. It's bad enough that happened to her, but messages are already being thrown at her that the ideal woman is beautiful. Sucks.

Today's find on FB:

 

<bullshit>

 

Dad comes home drunk and mad, he pulls out a gun and shoots his
wife and turns the gun to himself and pulls the trigger. The little
girls sits behind a couch crying. The police came and took the little
girl to a new family, and she went to her first Sunday school at
church. She walks past the building and sees a picture of Jesus
on the cross. The little girl then asks the teacher, "How did that
man get off the cross?" The teacher replied, "He never did." Then
the little girl argued "Yes, he did. Because the night my mommy
and daddy died he sat next to me behind the couch, telling me
everything was going to be alright." 66% of you won't post this,
but remember what the bible says,"Deny me in front of your friends
and I shall deny you in front of my father." So re-post this, remember
god saw you read this.

 

</end of bullshit>

 

So Jesus let this drunk destroy a family. Score one for Jesus!

I'm most impressed that the picture of Jesus at the church was the exact likeness of the Jesus she saw in real life.

Yep.

 

I was wondering why Jesus was hiding behind the couch with the kid?

This song is the reason I know that CDs make a kickass light show in the microwave.

Little Girl:  Jesus stop Daddy from hurting Mommy!

 

Jesus:  I'm sorry but that isn't what I do.

 

Little Girl:  Jesus bring Mommy back to life!  Please!

 

Jesus:  I not going to violate your daddy's free will.

 

Little Girl:  Please Jesus make it stop!  Make it all better!

 

Jesus:  Nah, a lifetime of therapy will give you character.

I saw this one today in my news feed from a good friend...

 

A little girl wanted to know what the United States looked like. Her Dad tore a map of the USA from a magazine and then cut it into small pieces. He told her to go to her room to see if she could put it together. After some minutes she returned and handed the map correctly fitted and taped together. The Dad was surprised and asked how she had finished so quickly. She said, "On the other side was a picture of Jesus and when I put him back then our country just came together."

That also made me sick, I didnt even really get it but it made me feel like I want to...... go nuts.

This I have never heard on fb but I have heard it....jesus is a big jigsaw you have to put together.

But isn't Jesus supposed to be free to those who search? Do these Christians actually think about their theories?

You can undo so much of christianity if you just think enough. Something christians don't encourage.

Humans can't be trusted to think because of their presuppositions that God does not exist.  Presuppositions that God gave us, the bastard.

I guess the teacher meant that Jesus didn't get off the cross; he died on it, and then was taken down.

 

And then the child discovers that Jesus was still alive anyway, and that's sort of the point of the story.

 

 

 

 

 

The existence of these stories does prove a powerful point though about how all religious claims are spread.  It is a lie, but it is spread by people who believe that it is true.

 

The idea that Jesus rose from the dead probably propagated in the same way in the 0030s as this story does in the 2010s.  Only difference is Paul of Tarsus didn't have a Facebook page.

You can put them through Tesla coils too and wow it makes an incredible show. I've got a CD hanging on my wall in the study that got that treatment--it looks pretty cool.

 

Lilith, it's more than her appearance here. This little girl is in pain and having a horrific existence even aside from her monstrous appearance. She can't even eat her own food but must get it through a tube. Massive amounts of surgery eventually gave her the ability to blink her own eyelids. From what I hear, she just got cheekbones and they're hopeful that sooner or later she'll get a jaw she can use. Not having bones in your head is important for a lot of everyday functions--think about it. Are you drinking a soda? She can't. Are there chips on your desk? She'll never know the fun of getting Cheetos dust on her fingers. Did you just blink? It took years for her to do that. Are you wearing earrings? Closing your mouth? Swallowing?

 

Juliana's sadistic, egocentric parents inflicted this suffering on a child without even considering what her life would be like. It was all about them and their need to prove a point.

 

And then the idea of Christians using such an image to score political points is simply disgusting. That kid's got it rough enough without being the poster child for forced-birthers.
