How about Gay rights? How about sex shaming? How about prayer in schools? How about children DYING because of the lack of medical care? How about MILLIONS dying of Aids because the Pope lies about the issue? Religion being pushed in the world is a MAJOR issue and your crying about the minority finally speaking up smacks of entitlement. <br /><br />It smacks of a persecution complex. <br /><br />Oh poor 85% of the world.<br /><br />Sorry if I can't commiserate.<br /><br />As far as a banner having to be removed?<br /><br />GOOD!<br /><br />It was NOT representative of the entire populace and as such had no place in a public forum at a public school. It having been there for decades is no different than saying that Rosa Parks shouldn't have been upset about her seating arrangement because that was the way it had always been.<br /><br />Come on now.<br /><br />It is not becoming less God friendly. It is one of the most evangelical nations on earth. Nothing is changing.<br /><br />Except that now, a small movement has arisen that will hold you to task for nonsense that you pass in public arena.<br /><br />No one is denying you the right to pray, to worship or to believe. We are just starting to speak up and say that your rights are not the only ones that matter.<br /><br />And I am pretty sure that YOU know that.J Burgoynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03283467415635166115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5734346441675318707.post-88502110518818508842012-02-24T23:35:28.214-08:002012-02-24T23:35:28.214-08:00It really frustrates me that atheists believe WE a...It really frustrates me that atheists believe WE are pushing our beliefs on them. Our beliefs are pushed on you? What? Do you listen to music, do you watch TV? Do you see billboards? (All rhetorical questions btw). They do the OPPOSITE. I can't believe you even tried to make that point. <br />A "small percentage" speak out?? Sorry to rip on your vision of athiests as underdog, revolutionary activists fighting an uphill battle for human good in a religious world that oppresses them, but left and right I see and hear people ripping on christianity, saying God is nonexistent, a "fairy", 'what about evolution?'; America is obviously becoming less God friendly -everyone flips out at a banner (that's been there for decades) with the word "God" at a highschool- and I'm pretty sure you know that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5734346441675318707.post-2950495930373272752012-01-30T03:33:31.112-08:002012-01-30T03:33:31.112-08:00There is no hypocrisy here.

If you are offended, then that is not my issue. No one has a right to not be offended. My genuine interest is to engage in conversation. Sorry your beleifs are not immune to critique nor ridicule. If something is ridiculous, then sometimes it gets ridiculed. The whole point is to demonstrate that the idea of a god, especially the god of the bible, is absurd and contradictory. As far as respecting beliefs, you are wrong. Beliefs are not due respect if they can't show that they are worthy of it. I respect people, but if beliefs can't stand up to even basic examination, then they don't deserve respect. The next thing you talk about it pushing my "beliefs" on people. Are you serious???? In a world where YOUR beliefs are pushed on all of us in every song, every TV show, billboards, most every book, at every sporting interview, in body art, and even when we sneeze I would say that a small percentage of people speaking out and saying "No" to those things is only fair. Come on now. Speaking out about things that are doing harm to the world and bringing light to the nonsense of religion is not pushing my beliefs. I don't care if you believe what I write. I just want to make the conversation a normal one and bring religion out from behind the curtain of immunity that it so unjustly enjoys. As far as your condescending verses from the bible, they are nonsensical to say to someone who sees that myths are no longer to be feared. Your judgment and the judgment of the bible are one and the same to me. Nonsense.J Burgoynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03283467415635166115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5734346441675318707.post-43611262785155969142012-01-13T16:24:53.287-08:002012-01-13T16:24:53.287-08:00At least try to not be a hypocrite and actually li...At least try to not be a hypocrite and actually live by what you say. You said that I was 'dishonest because I was insulting and rude' when every one of these pictures can be described as such. Naturally you should see that a child of God would be offended by your pictures (and I’m sure you know this). Why else would you post these offensive pictures but because you want attention by causing an uproar amongst believers. There's one thing to want an "age of equality" and for our species to “grow” etc. etc., but I see your genuine interest is to ridicule and offend believers of Christ JUST BECAUSE YOU DON'T BELIEVE IN HIM. Believer or not, you know that you have no argument. Let’s go with your insistence that you don’t believe in Jesus: As a nonbeliever you should respect those who do believe. You said in your info that “in fact as a moral species” we need to grow...in what way has any of the material on your website been "moral"? People that don't believe in God shouldn't care that others do. But they still do for some reason, hmm. You want us as a species to stop believing. What say do you have in that?” None. You’re just one person and you can try to push what you BELIEVE onto others all you want, but you will make miniscule progress. It’s also funny that you think that everyone who reads the stuff on your website believes it. And that “there are a lot of more of us than you imagine”, yes I am aware of vast amount of sinners: we’ve all committed sins during our lives, it’s up to us to not put the sacrifice that Jesus Christ made (for our sake; for our sins to be forgiven) to shame and instead to accept it and accept the Lord in our lives.<br /><br />As to the 'judgement that comes out of my mouth' it is nothing compared to the day "we will all stand before the judgment seat of God" (Romans 14:10). <br />And as to your humungous amount of viewers, may they not be led astray and instead be lead to the path of righteousness. Luke 23:34: "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing" (Christ while being crucified and ridiculed by sinners)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5734346441675318707.post-88913343583624587152011-11-04T22:19:41.499-07:002011-11-04T22:19:41.499-07:00It would seem that you are both dishonest and not ...It would seem that you are both dishonest and not understanding the situation. I DON'T BELIEVE IN JESUS! Which means it is nothing to me to ridicule such a ridiculous character of fiction. I say that you are dishonest because you are at first insulting and rude, and then you have the Christian pretense of "blessing" me. We both know that your real motivations are more revealed by your original comments than your latter "blessing". If your argument is to just come here and call me childish and tell me that I am a failure who makes excuses to cover my eyes from things that I see as harmful and mythical, then your argument is a weak one indeed. If you would like to engage in adult discourse (by which I mean detailing a REAL argument as to why what I have written is wrong, or that I am on the wrong path) then feel free to do so. I welcome it. As for your insults, and pretense at blessings out of one side of your mouth while nothing but judgment comes from the other side? <br /><br />Carry on representing your cause and your religion. You do it well. (as for no one reading this "crap", if you paid attention, I think that you would find that it has been read over one hundred and thirty thousand times. Not too bad for something "no one reads" eh? There are a lot more of us than you imagine)<br /><br />PeaceJ Burgoynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03283467415635166115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5734346441675318707.post-18077424358922194422011-09-11T15:55:56.029-07:002011-09-11T15:55:56.029-07:00You're the man for making this, i look up to y...You're the man for making this, i look up to you and respect you as a human being (sarcasm btw, something you suck donkey genitals at). This is honestly one of the worst attempts at being funny I've ever seen. You talk about "growing up" and "moving on" as a species, but do you honestly think this immature and vulgar ridicule of Jesus is the way to do it? There's one thing in not believing in a god, but just because you for some reason think you're better than him and his followers, you feel the need to go out of your way and condemn him through this blog and the pictures? Cutting to the chase: you're trying way to hard bro...and failing. May the Lord bless you and remove the veil of excuses you use to cover your eyes from him so that you can one day see the light and live by it...that would be a better use of your time and effort since no one reads this crap anyways :/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
