So true, no one's more self-rightous than atheists.  They ridicule anyone and everyone that has belief in something spiritual

That's usually my job.

I'll comment on Mari's and Hadji's stupid posts tomorrow. Right now I am PUI, but not too PUI to make fun of thumpers.

Well ok, I do have one last comment about the likes of Hadji. Why is it that good socialists like Hadji and WillyWonka take such pleasure in the real life suffering of their own neighbors and countrymen? The floods here in Texas are a very real event, and while I am not asking for a federal handout, laughing at the misfortunes of others shows just what kind of man/men we are dealing with.

I despise thumpers and their hypocrisy, but is Hadji and his ilk  really any better?

Too many morons worship a savior who never existed. I laugh my ass off at all these copycat saviors

Barf puke.

I get sick of looking at signs at churches that I drive by  daily that reads 'JESUS SAVES, BELIEVE IT".   The dumbsh*it that got elected as Senator from Iowa last November, said repeal OBAMACARE and people should look up to churches for help.

WTF!   I wish those ambulances carrying these religious nuts should go and drop them at a Church and not an ER.    Then JESUS will save them.

Liberals, by definition, are supposed to be open-minded and accepting.  They claim to be welcoming to immigrants and to minorities. They push hard for the rights of those who pursue same-sex marriage and other rights.

Yet, liberals like you can't seem to accept a picture of a man and a woman holding hands and praying together before they get married.  Just who are they harming by doing this???  Is any taxpayer money being spent so they can hold hands and pray?

Just chalk it up to another disgusting post made in an attempt at humor by a bored poster who thinks he is funnier than he actually is.

...can't have much more of a closed mind than that.  If something good happens, all glory goes to God (1 Corinthians 10:31).  If something bad happens, they say that God is testing their faith and strengthening their souls.  Apparently they have no personal responsibility.  Thumpers should read Nathaniel Branden along with their bible.

Remember Andrea Yates who drowned her five sons in Texas?  She was found not guilty by reason of insanity due to postpartum psychosis.  But Yates was a very religious woman who said that her kids "...didn't do things God likes."  Maybe she killed her kids because it was God's will.  Who are we to question her religious convictions?  She's called crazy but she could just be a heavy-duty thumper.

Seems pretty innocuous. A couple holding hands, praying and one in military dress. It generally wouldn't raise the anger for most people.

What does that picture represent to a progressive? That picture is the antithesis of what they believe in, and not just from a religious point of view, but politically as well. Progressives and Evangelicals have diametrically opposed views on just about everything. Put two men holding hands in West Hollywood or San Francisco, and you will get the same reaction from an Evangelical.  

Progressives and Evangelicals are in the minority, but there are enough people in the middle that hopefully marginalizes and cancels those 2 groups out.  

P.S. I believe a definition of a "thumper" in the mind of a Progressive is an Evangelical. If their definition of a "thumper" includes mainstream Christianity, i.e. Episcopalians, Methodists, Catholics, etc., then I guess the problem is worse than I thought.

they get married? There is absolutely no correlation.

I lost faith in Christianity when hordes of  pedophiles hiding behind those long flowing robes pleaded guilty to rape, sodomy and child pornography.    I guess for the country as a whole the out of court settlement ran in to $billons.    

About that couple, the guy and his uniform is mockery if we look at the atrocities committed against women in Iraq.    The woman will join those crazy military wives who form groupies and hang out at NBA games looking for those tall, big guys.    I guess they passed some to Tiger Woods!

What a bitter,miserable,self hating lout you must be.

Look, I think religion is as big a waste of time as anyone, but what on earth is your problem? If someone wants to send wishes to an imaginary man on a cloud in the sky, why would it bother you even in the slightest? Hell, forget Christianity, if someone wants to pray to the drumstick they caught after seeing a Rolling Stones gig in 1973, why the hell should it bother you?

Why the hatred?

It is OK as long as they don't force it down the throat of unwilling people.    Sadly, that is what has been going in states ruled by Republican Emperors.    My religion and you better follow my beliefs!   It is about time people start telling these bigots, GAFY.

Homophobes are similar to Atheists and Agnostics who spend  time mocking others  choice of faith.    
  All straight guys aren't Homophobic, but the ones who are usually FEAR Homosexuals because they are too IGNORANT to understand a person who has a  same sex attraction and  JEALOUS they can't maintain their own  loving  relationship .  
  All Agnostics and Atheists don't despise Religion, but the ones who do likely have  short circuitry in their brain , not allowing them to promote freedom of expression among others  as a normal person would with an  attitude of live and let live.  
   
Anyone thinking logically and secure in their own skin should have no fear of Homosexuals  
 or Religion.
 
  There are exceptions to every rule.  
  Example: Someone with Pyro phobia, Allodoxaphobia ,  Ecclesiophobia  Hagiophobiaor, Ouranophobiaor or Bibliophobia would  have a natural  aversion toward Religion.
 
   
 A. Fear    
 B. Ignorance  
 C. Jealousy  
 D. All of the above  

 P.S     I'm agnostic

becomes realized, no matter the means.  ;)

P.S. The non-religious can be just as self-righteous as the religious.   ;)

but in their defense, atheists don't claim that you will burn for eternity in a lake of fire if you don't believe the same way as them.

Who is more self righteous, people who laugh at other people who believe in an invisible man in the sky, or people who are only a few generations removed from burning witches at the stake?
