Well, I just made a facebook note, I'll post it here:
While i try to respect people's beliefs, some people are just fucking retarded! So today there are bible thumpers all over campus shouting things about damnation and other crap. One even told me that I'm going to burn in hell for all eternity. YAY!
Anyway, I started debating with this one guy and it was obvious early on that he wasnt the brightest person in the world. When I told him that I don't believe in a god he gave me the worst excuse for an analogy ive ever heard. I believe it was something like "If someone tells you that they're going to throw a brick at you, and you dont believe them, its still going to hurt!"
....
.... What? I mean i understand what he's trying to say but..... what? Worst analogy EVER. Anyway, i was telling him about how I believe that religion was basically created as an early form of science, to explain things in the world that we don't understand, and that Christianity kind of evolved from that. Then he was like "no actually the pagan religions stole from Christianity"
......
At this point i had an immense urge to beat him senseless in order to raise the average IQ on campus, but i resisted. I explained to him that the pagan religions were around thousands of years before christianity. He said "Actually, the worlds only 6000 years old". At that point i realized it was a lost cause. I can't believe, despite all the PROOF that shows otherwise, people actually believe that. So i just yelled the word "dinosaurs" and walked away. While i was walking away i passed another one, who told me that I'm going to burn in hell for eternity.
I try to respect people, i really do. But if you think you are anything like the people described above, off yourself NOW.
