BendyLine Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 I know it's all been said before many times on this site, but goddammit, I need to vent. I'm pissed off, because according to Christians, God has a gun to my head called "Hell" and unless I jump through some crazy, arbitrary hoop I'll have to suffer for all eternity there. And the reason he designed the universe that way is because he needs people to stroke his massive ego and choose to love and worship his crazy ass. I'm also pissed because these same Christians dare to judge what they think is in my head. I rejected Christianity because I want to sin! Hell, I was never a real Christian in the first place! Well, they can take their True Christianity and shove it up their fucking asses. And Yaweh can take his son and shove him up his ass, then use the Holy Ghost to clean his dick cheese after not showering for a few months. Nothing like a little god damned blasphemy to help one feel better. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the line in the "christian hard rock episode" where Eric Cartman screams out, at a xain fest..."Fuck Jesus!!!" and the groans & screams from the crowd. It's fucking hilarious!!!!

I was pretty worried at first since my mind had been trained to only think good things about God and damn- with OCD, I spent almost ten years trying not to even HAVE a sexual thought because I worried I'd get it mixed up with God in my thoughts somehow. That was NOT fun. Feels much better and freer now. And I am pissed for all those reasons, too. And all the other reasons mentioned in this awesome thread. And I love that South Park episode, too. Might go watch it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest r3alchild Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 You know if we are all going to eternal darkness, (yes not even the bible is clear on hell) then lets destroy religion, so most of us will be together for eternity and we never have to be bothered by god ever again. There will be more of us than them and I am sure that with so few people they will get bored quicker than us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That saying even when I was a Christian used to bother me-- "you go to Heaven for the weather, but Hell for the company!" I was like, "Doesn't anyone want ME for company!?! Am I really that much a lame prude?! No body wants to hang out with me in Heaven......." And, you know, that there MIGHT be Jesus/God there to make up for that just didn't make up for the fact some of my best friends might be burning in hell. Religion does do terrible things. All those people saying it's because there's not enough God in our lives need to rethink it. It's because there's too much and they're depending on prayer to heal people that are sick instead of getting them real help. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrGuitar Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 I dont think the answer is in any "ism"...all religion is a lost cause You dont need any religion or ideology to relate to your creator...forge your own relationship with it just like you do with people...each person you have a different unique relationship with.. If you want to be an atheist, try that on for size. if it works best then go with it... when you die, if theres an afterlife, youll find out then..if there isnt you wont know anything..so just do the best you can now and love others but reject cruelty in any form...the love you take... is equal to the love....you make =) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Onto with your regularly scheduled anti-religious rants. Film at 11. I love the topped ranked comment. "I don't think he hit the scientologist guy hard enough." Why are atheists angry?

Faithless Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Taking advantage of the simple human need to be loved, who does that? Ugh...right on the nail. This is one of the reasons why I started de-converting.I noticed how much people exploited people's needs,especially the need to be loved.Lots of people got hurt,myself included. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gigii45 Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 I agree so much with what you said, I feel the same, I feel so ashamed to be a human. I don't listen anymore to what the bible says about being worthless, nothing good comes from us, it just isn't true. We love, we care and the human spirit is the most powerful thing there is, look at what people have overcome in their lives, people without limbs, who have been shot in the head, they go on and are still smiling and encouraging others, I have seen the human spirit triumph over all things!! I actually physically got sick because I was following the scripture and I kept on believing I was worthless and it took its toil on me. I became worthless because I believed it. You are so right, RavenStar, keep remembering how wonderful and caring you are, build up your self - esteem ( I am also saying this to you, knowing I need to hear it myself). I think the bible is truly focused on self-annihilation, the total annihilation of self, and there is no way you can survive if you self-sacrifice yourself, it's not possible. The self is beautiful and is what is here, trying to survive everyday, I seriously think the men that wrote the bible were assholes. If you really want to know the truth I don't think God had any part in writing that book, and we need to stick together as a human race and love one another. In the end we are all okay, LOVE conquers all, also the interpretation of the bible is so out of wack, their are so many different interpretations and inconsistencies, it's crazy...... I like you, never grew up with religion, it was fantastic, I chose to be a very caring, sincere, kind person, I had very little knowledge of the bible but I used the values of Jesus ( the loving side which was focused on compassion). I interpreted Jesus to be very loving, kind, gentle and compassionate. When I was 22, I was lured into a very destructive christian cult,(this is where I learned about the bible and actually read the whole thing, the cult lasted 5 yrs, what a dummy I was, I came out of the cult, completely remolded by the cult leader, I have been on a journey trying to be myself again, and accepting that it is okay to do that. I have had to block out so much scripture that was forced (banged) into my head. I am now 47 years old and I am still dealing with all of this, (the cult issues, christianity etc). I am not interested in an unloving God, and I don't believe there is an unloving God, all this stuff is put into our heads, but we can remove it, that is what i am doing now, and replacing what is hurtful and harmful with what is loving and kind, even if it goes against the bible, LOVE conquers all, and we are LOVE, (all those who choose to love), Yes, the writers of the bible did not consider the self at all, that is their biggest mistake and we can know that and heal from that. Humanity is so beautiful.................we are all so beautiful, one bible verse that says perfect love casts out all fear, is something we enjoy right now, when I love somebody, i have no fear, it is already working, I'm not fearful, so I am already acting in love, (just as you are, and everybody else), We are already there, we need less scripture, and more action in Love. Anyways, I just wanted to reach out to you and say hey, I feel the same as you!! Thanks for sharing, I feel validated by what you said, because I feel the same....take care 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExXex Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 I agree! Love is something I've always believed in and since my faith has fallen away its been something I've clung to. I felt a bit subversive as a Christian since I gave mainly to secular charities rather than to the church and other Christian branded charities simply because I saw just as much good being done by them, which is proof enough good works aren't solely the domain of those running on Holy Spirit juice, and I've seen enough to see the opposite is true too, people can do terrible terrible things, even the ones who have 'let God into their lives'. I always felt the natural response to these terrible things was to love harder and fiercer, and I get what you're saying about the bible, it seems a flawed template for doing so. I mean it even says 'Love keeps no record of wrongs'... whist being one long record of wrongs. Like childbirth supposedly being painful to this day because Eve got an original thought. I spent so much time subconsciously listing 'being a woman' under my record of wrongs as a Christian! I think love's been something that helped draw me out of religion, loving my boyfriend caused so much pain within me (I felt that I'd walk in to hell for him and that's not very Christiany) to the point that we broke up for a short while, I expected to feel a release and a 'right with Godness' but.. nope, just an idiot for letting him slip through my fingers. But now I don't worship the deity who's poised for chucking the people I love into eternal torment I feel more cleansed than any religious experience ever made me.

RenaissanceWoman Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 ... I actually physically got sick because I was following the scripture and I kept on believing I was worthless and it took its toil on me. I became worthless because I believed it... Right there with ya, sister! It was made worse for me because I worked myself to a frenzy trying to be good enough for the people in my church, too -- so I had it coming at me from all directions. No matter how hard I tried, how many hours I devoted, how committed I was... it was never enough. And there was always someone else better connected in the church who got better treatment than I did without even trying. So I tried even harder. (FWIW, don't complain about favoritism in the church, or you will suffer even more!) I got to a point where my therapist (also an acupuncturist, herbal specialist, alternative medicine guru) saw me for my bi-monthly appointment (to manage the stress and toxicity on my body) kind of panicked during one of my greater episodes of stress and distress. She sent me away for a weekend at an ashram (a yoga-based monastery of sorts) to try to find some peace and self-worth. I think she thought that if I didn't fall over dead from the toll on my body (at age 39!), I would just kill myself and get it over with. Seriously, I was messed up! Anyway... much better now. Just needed to vent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LifeCycle Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I'm angry right now!!!!! I'm angry because Christians continue to give God a free-pass! Hold that motherfucker accountable for drowning 7 children in a basement during the recent tornado outbreak in Oklahoma. Hold him accountable for turning homes and lives to rubble. Don't pray to him and thank him for sparing your life you self-centered asshole. Don't pray to him for blessings and comfort to come after the storm. He's proven to be silent during the most pivotal times of need. Fuck him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RipVanWinkle Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 It's not really god you are mad at. We exchristians are mad at ourselves for being so gullible for so long. Seeing how Xtians react to things like the Oklahoma disaster by praising god for leaving SOME survivors instead of killing them too, is like looking at ourselves in a mirror before our deconversion. It's painful. bill 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RipVanWinkle Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 One of the many things that makes me mad about Xtianity is that when they give "advice" to a poor soul who is hurting, and that advice doesn't help him, they will give the very same advice to the next poor soul who has the same problems as the first, and to the third person and the forth person, ad nauseum. Furthermore, the xtians feel self righteous about what they have done, always blaming the sufferers for their continuing problems. They are so selfish that they don't even consider that the problem might be their advice rather than the sufferer. bill 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RenaissanceWoman Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 I'm so angry because I realize that all along, my church is full of money-grubbing control freaks! After I questioned some of their un-Christ-like behaviors last fall (because I'm a "tool of Satan," you know), I was rewarded with a nasty letter from the elders (after I had been put on trial before them, of course) telling me that I am not allowed to participate in any of their current or future ministries, but I can still come to "worship and communion only". (So technically they did not excommunicate me.) I guess I'm allowed to attend, as long as I don't talk to anyone. Nice. (I admit I do show up every 2 months or so, but don't take communion. I like the idea that some of them seriously cringe when they see me.) Just to fuck with them, I asked (in writing all four times) for "permission" to keep giving money to my pet projects there, to see what they would say. (I anonymously give a huge chunk every year to sponsor a youth for the annual national gathering; I anonymously sponsor a low-income single mom to send her child to our preschool, which is a tidy sum every month; I anonymously donate free tickets for low-income families to attend our annual fancy Christmas party; and I contribute a lot of time, money, and creativity to their annual fund raiser for their pet missionary project.) I'm thinking these efforts of mine would be "participating" in those ministries by supporting them financially. But... you guessed it! Giving money is OK! All four times, they gave me permission (in writing) to continue giving money. I have shared this information with various people in the congregation who I thought could do something about this sick policy. (I guess the elders are right, I am "malicious and divisive." Muwahahahaha!) Has anything come of it? Hell no. (Well, not that I'm aware of, since I have gotten the hell away from there.) Those people are still there, still doing all the activities and Bible studies, still giving their money. As Bhim pointed out in another thread... Stuff like this would be funny if it weren't so deadly serious! What a manipulative mind fuck for the people still there! I even told the head elder (via a civil email exchange several months ago) that I see that "My presents are acceptable, but not my presence." No response. However, about a week ago I received an email invitation from this same head elder to connect to him via LinkedIn. What the fuck? I can laugh about this now, and I look forward to snarky comments from you guys/gals about this. Let 'er rip! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
