Happy Easter, He is risen! (1 Viewer)

Really don't see why an important holiday to many has to turn south from those who don't believe. Why open the thread and turn it into a pissing match?

I think only the one athiest here is acting like that.

They have a sad,lonely hole inside of them, and they seek to fill it with tears and sorrow they might be able to elicit from others.

If that doesn't work, they have to resort to jelly beans.

Mmmm...not so much.

I think internet atheists and agnostics are much worse than you'd meet in real life. Just an opinion. I think most of us are pretty cool with faith, or long for it, for the most part.

I also think a large part of it is the mobilization of religion into political PACs since the 70's and Atwater. But it's always weird to see people react so strongly and negatively to those who have faith.

It is weird, and I'm not a "turn the other cheek" sort. I make every effort to NOT impose my faith and beliefs on others. I genuinely believe that, in the end, everyone is accountable for their own decisions.

But if someone's going to just wander into a thread specifically earmarked for Christians and be a #### for no good reason, I'm going to be a #### back.

I'm fine when people defend themselves, even vociferously. I don't get it, either. It's like a weird atheist internet brigade that must -- must, or the mission has not been accomplished -- that you know how stupid your faith is.

Also, I thought "candy" was your original comment. I've had a lot of Easter family fun tonight.

Louis CK disagrees. But upon reflection, it seemed as though candy was a better choice.

Happy Easter. Hope you have all shared some special time with your families today.

If you're referring to me, I am not an atheist. I'm agnostic and tend to lean towards believer. Born and raised Catholic. I just found the fact that that particular poster immediately came in and quoted a passage so diametrically opposed to everything he has posted on this site offensive. He gives Christians a bad name.

This is clearly a threat, GET OUT with that noise.

 

[Apple Jack]

It's not remotely a threat, but I've said my piece so I will get out.

This atheist wishes you nothing but the best on this most important day of your faith. May your day be filled with joy.

He is risen indeed!

A man with outward courage dares to die; a man with inner courage dares to live.

Happy Easter.
