NEWS: Asshole Fuckface Roundup #55

Wow, I leave for a day to, you know, tend to my life, and I come back and read this. So apparently I should just take up a gun and hunt down those crazy Muslims, because that's what real Christians do, right?

Seriously, arrogance on your scale is staggering. And I'm not even going to touch on the blatantly wrong assumptions you made about me....

Fortunately I don't have to answer to you about all these matters after I die. Whoever I do have to answer to, well, I think I'll be all right. You can rant and rave all you want, but you'll never be more than the crazy lady who can never understand why nobody will take her seriously.

Actually, by "later teachings," I meant the later teachings of Islam as a whole, not solely the later writings of Muhammad.

But your unsupported claims have convinced me. I now know that the entirety of Islam is incapable of exercising independent moral judgment, unlike good, God-fearing Christians, and that we must erase the Mohammedan scourge from the face of the earth before they do the same to us.

FTR Said:

I had a co-worker at a previous job who was arrested for DWI twice in one night basically for being stupid. He was pulled over and arrested, his drunken girlfriend started arguing with the cops, fell and busted her head open, so she had to be taken to the hospital. After he was released from the police station and given a cab ride home, the police alerted the town that the hospital was in. Sure enough, dumb ass walked back to the car and drove to pick up his girlfriend. The police were waiting for him and he was still "legally" drunk.

And here we have my basic problem with many Christians. So many have this idea that their version of Christianity is the ONLY valid way of thinking, and that anybody who disagrees is wavering or not Christian enough.

It sounds like JekyllAndHyde has a bit more accepting and mature idea of faith, where Christianity is focused on peace, calm, understanding, and welcome to both people and ideas. Closing your mind to outside ideas leads to a stagnant life.

I'd like to add a personel annecdote to the South Carolina story if I may. My grandmother passed away at the end of Feburary. She lived in Charleston and me and my father went down for her funeral. While we were there, my father, my aunt and me took her car to a carwash that had been there for a while. My Dad told the lady there that he wanted a vanilla scent because he was "feeling gay", to which the women responded *ahem* "There ain't nuthin' wrong wit' that! I wear dis rainbow heart to show mah' pridey pride!"

Having read the story, I think the advertising company could have done a better job advertising South Carolina to London's Gay Community, and just because State Senator Thomas objects to the way it was handled doesn't make him a homophobe. Also, the mentioning of "Gay Beaches" implies that there are beaches reserved for the Gay community, and if no such beaches exist, then Senator's Thomas's criticism that "nobody will know what their talking about" is quite justified.

Wow. Just... wow.

So basically, Rude_Ruca believes it's ok to pick and choose the pieces of the Christian Bible that she's comfortable with (or that prove her point) and ignore the parts that she doesn't morally agree with or considers outdated, but people of other religions aren't capable of doing that? I'm not sure whether to consider that egotistical, or arrogant, or...

Oh yeah. It's called Asshole Fuckefacery. Nevermind.

Republicans will say anything...

You are correct. And she'd likely argue how it's ok for her, as a Christian, to do, because the parts she doesn't agree with are the parts that were canceled out by Jesus' sacrifice. People of other religions can't pick and choose, because they don't have Jesus.

So there's the answer right there. We just need to bring them Jesus.
