Disgusting. You can't just hit someone with a baseball bat because you disagree with them. Use a gun like an american and shoot the scum.
my mother taught me that you get to know them first. then slowly destroy their soul. emotional pain never fully heals.
That's far too much effort for a wank stain like this. Shoot 'em, dump 'em, forget 'em.
i don't disagree but it's also very enjoyable to watch someone deserving slowly become emotionally unhinged, but only if they deserve it.

Not openly.
So many downvotes and yet this is always the attitude when women/men open up about rape. Blame the victim, cover it up. Too embarrassing.
ElbowDeepInAPoliceState
Well it's not like it's hard to become a preacher. Just find a street corner and start preaching.
Pretty much
As an add-on to what I was saying, I don't particularly want to be catholic, because I'm seen as supporting/funding people I hate.
And to top it off, if you blame the victim, you are no better than the rapist. Maybe even worse.

The more I've thought about that P.O.S it's made me angry, he definitely deserved more, for a religion based on love, it's sure full of hate
aintnothinbutahounddog28
So you consider saying women deserve to be raped is 'insensitive'?? Wow. What do you consider ppl wearing 6mwe clothes? Impolite?
He was being extremely insensitive, he needs to be excommunicated, and as for the 6mwe, those people can rot in hell.

I hope so! Otherwise I’m not going!
KiopMiko
That's because he was a pervert who can't accept his own arousal. Rather than dealing with himself, he blames women for being attractive.
The irony being that he ignores the part of the Bible where Jesus says if you can't stop ogling to pluck our your own eyes

See, this is why people hate atheists. Because people like you make the lot of us look like callous assholes.
I think religion needs to be stomped out completely.
RayMC
How? Magic? Wishes? People will not stop being religious, no matter what. Unlike political stances, there’s no possible action to take here.
Yeah, that’s why I said that I think that. I didn’t lay out a battle plan, it’s an opinion.
Wouldn’t it make more sense to say you “wish” it could be stomped out completely? I thought “needs to be” implied it was possible, sorry.
“I think” being the operative part of my comment. Opinion, clear as day.
MrTudor
we progressed thanks to it. Problem is we stuck with religion that has moral code old of thousand of years./
chrispydtankPS4
Nobody can deny that religion shaped the world. But it's past its expiry date. It has forced back science, a key ingredient to progress.
It's become the bane of our existence.
If I could add one thing to freedom of speech it would be that it excludes things that are false and malicious
Most of religions werent just about spirituality they were also a conduit for the society.Also priestes are asshole and try to control ppl.
Yeah, I don't think my grandmother had 14 kids out of pleasure. My grandfather tho, maybe.
some were dumb.My great-great ma had also lots of children because se did not want to protect.In Transylvania at that time hungarian women/
had one or 2 children usualy,romanian ones had an army...
Not really about being dumb... you think wearing condoms was a thing in the 30s, 40s? Not to mention that the church was telling them /1
rainevasquez
Riiiight. It’s religion that’s m fucking things up. Ya, we’re never progressing so long as you all keep getting distracted by that narrative
realargonwolf
But it's such a convenient scapegoat, AND it lets them condescend and feel superior to large numbers of people!
If a person uses religion as an excuse to feel superior, they're doing it wrong
Okay but I'm talking about the circlejerking atheists, who get to feel superior to every one of the billions of religious people.
The operative word there is excuse. They don’t need religion, it’s the excuse. Take away religion and they’ll employ a diff excuse.
You are 110% correct
HieronymousFlex
We're stuck with it, I'm afraid. As long as humans fear death, people will seek out religion to cope with it.
We are if we deny science, evidence, facts. People try to be "open-minded" to things that leaves a hole 4 belief/"my truth" vs fact/reality.
Sadly, Facts/Evidence may not be positive to people's agendas, and will manipulate it or ignore it and make anybody who sheds light on it,
The bad person. Especially if it invades people's rights/privileges/morals that they feel righteous to. The saying:
"facts don't care about your feelings" has a level of truth to it, yet people want balance to this claim. So it's no wonder it's been said
theEarlOfSharts
Well not necessarily. Research has shown that religiosity goes down with education, wealth and progress. Maybe one day. Maybe one day.
SilverNicktail
....because religious people inhibit education, wealth and progress.
You're probably right. Religious people are possibly the biggest reason more people aren't religious.
Also with generations. My grandparents were religious, our parents were barely taking us to church and none of us kids are going there now.
Goveggie222
Yup my grandparents were Amish.. two generations and I’m atheist and use technology to go on Imgur
Dotheyhangtoolowinthemorning
Which explains why its so strong in the USA.
The US is a third world country with a Gucci belt. Also, given its large size, if you look deeper the research holds.
Richer, educated and therefore progressive urban centers tend to be less religious, while the rural areas are the opposite.
AmbassadorOfAndrew
That’s the thing, Christianity doesn’t actually support his stance, folks like him will always find justifications to be a dick
HenchGoalkeeper66
Well said well said sir
Christianity for the most part would call out rape but would never vilify the victim nor celebrate the rapist.
Thats mostly true but looking at the biblical punishments for being a rape victim it does imply that they're at fault in at least some cases
CerisCinderwolf
"Recorded in the Bible as dictated by human king" is different than "Biblical" (e.g. dictated by Christ). If that were the case, it's 1/2
Biblical to cut a baby in half of two women fight over who's child it is (I Kings 3:16-28). ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 2/2
Except Israel didn't have a king then, they were laws of the Pharisees which were supposed to have come from God. But what difference does 1
I mean, it's cool if you pay for them right? https://biblia.com/bible/esv/deuteronomy/22/23-29
Must be, the good book says it's ok. Cue the context crowd in 3,2,1....
These are Moses words, clawing down the law for Israel. He wasn't perfect and Christ even called him out on that in one instance 1/2
when specifically asked a question about Moses permitting divorce. Context actually means something despite trying for a laugh. 2/2
That’s Old Testament, overruled by Jesus’ teachings, so take that up with Judaism, not Christianity
smolbep
Nope, that's bullshit. Mathew 5:17, Jesus says he is specifically NOT doing that.
It's the same thing mate, it's all bullshit.
digitalist1
I've always thought Sodom and Gomorrah was put in the Bible to warn against rape culture, not homosexuality.
Ummmm but lot was considered righteous for offering his daughters to be raped by the crowd instead of the angels, so how would that work?
But lot? Wordy words are hard hards.
'But Lot' or are namey names hard hards for you hunny bunny?
I distinctly remember in that story, the angels became repulsed by the immense gang rape happening, they got mad, no more city.
Gen 19:5-8 the crowd wants the 2 men/angels to "have sex w/ them" ie rape. But Lot offers his 2 virgin daughters to the crowd saying 1
Someone got pissed at the rape in that story and God decided to destroy the city because of it.
Gen 19:5-8 the crowd wants to rape the men/angels & lot pleads with them not to do such a "wicked thing" and instead offers his virgin 1

Just have to rely on the gifts 'god' gave you. Use your prison wallet.
vonkeswick
People like him: you're female and wear pants, hell. If you're female and wear a skirt and get raped, your fault because you wore a skirt.
comicsmakemehappierthanmostpeopledo
so my options are hell or rape?
selfinsertusernamebutiforgotmypassword
hell sounds better
vonkeswick
It's almost like they're just garbage people who want everyone else to feel bad. Fuck that dude (figuratively)
FierceDruid
There was a different preacher on my campus and he told me I was going to hell for wearing yoga pants in particular!
PrincessWasabi
What did Jesus say, pluck out your eyes if they wander ? Read him that lol
soupiswhatitsoundslikewhenyoueatsoup
By his logic, he's going to hell for what he thought when he looked at your yoga pants, because he obviously had SOME "sinful" thought ?
KaterTheCreater
He always had signs saying sorority girls are wh*res and will burn in hell. Real nice guy..

University of Arizona? That's where I met this ass-hat.
KaterTheCreater
Yup!
Darkspire
Sounds like we need more bats.

He should know not to fuck with a druid
FierceDruid
Haha thank you! I can't remember exactly what I yelled back at him but I do remember being proud of myself for coming up with it on the spot
peasizedbladder
Do we at least get to keep the yoga pants when we go to hell?
IndyBlu
I hope so! Otherwise I’m not going!
KiopMiko
That's because he was a pervert who can't accept his own arousal. Rather than dealing with himself, he blames women for being attractive.
vonkeswick
The irony being that he ignores the part of the Bible where Jesus says if you can't stop ogling to pluck our your own eyes

Oh Religion, when will you leave the human race so we can progress?

Religion loses its grip under the light of reason and humor.
CliffCarter
It's for people who don't believe in facts, science. They need stories to cling to in order to feel safe.
lifesucks3million
They have to be able to explain the unexplainable some way, don’t they?
JackedUpGinger
Fear/desperation have that affect
LieutenantGordon
See, this is why people hate atheists. Because people like you make the lot of us look like callous assholes.
HolyCowDoNotEat
I think religion needs to be stomped out completely.
RayMC
How? Magic? Wishes? People will not stop being religious, no matter what. Unlike political stances, there’s no possible action to take here.
HolyCowDoNotEat
Yeah, that’s why I said that I think that. I didn’t lay out a battle plan, it’s an opinion.
RayMC
Wouldn’t it make more sense to say you “wish” it could be stomped out completely? I thought “needs to be” implied it was possible, sorry.
HolyCowDoNotEat
“I think” being the operative part of my comment. Opinion, clear as day.
MrTudor
we progressed thanks to it. Problem is we stuck with religion that has moral code old of thousand of years./
chrispydtankPS4
Nobody can deny that religion shaped the world. But it's past its expiry date. It has forced back science, a key ingredient to progress.
chrispydtankPS4
It's become the bane of our existence.
bradendwilliamson5
If I could add one thing to freedom of speech it would be that it excludes things that are false and malicious
MrTudor
Most of religions werent just about spirituality they were also a conduit for the society.Also priestes are asshole and try to control ppl.
MapleSyrupMafia
Yeah, I don't think my grandmother had 14 kids out of pleasure. My grandfather tho, maybe.
MrTudor
some were dumb.My great-great ma had also lots of children because se did not want to protect.In Transylvania at that time hungarian women/
MrTudor
had one or 2 children usualy,romanian ones had an army...
MapleSyrupMafia
Not really about being dumb... you think wearing condoms was a thing in the 30s, 40s? Not to mention that the church was telling them /1
rainevasquez
Riiiight. It’s religion that’s m fucking things up. Ya, we’re never progressing so long as you all keep getting distracted by that narrative
realargonwolf
But it's such a convenient scapegoat, AND it lets them condescend and feel superior to large numbers of people!
bradendwilliamson5
If a person uses religion as an excuse to feel superior, they're doing it wrong
realargonwolf
Okay but I'm talking about the circlejerking atheists, who get to feel superior to every one of the billions of religious people.
rainevasquez
The operative word there is excuse. They don’t need religion, it’s the excuse. Take away religion and they’ll employ a diff excuse.
bradendwilliamson5
You are 110% correct
HieronymousFlex
We're stuck with it, I'm afraid. As long as humans fear death, people will seek out religion to cope with it.
chrispydtankPS4
We are if we deny science, evidence, facts. People try to be "open-minded" to things that leaves a hole 4 belief/"my truth" vs fact/reality.
chrispydtankPS4
Sadly, Facts/Evidence may not be positive to people's agendas, and will manipulate it or ignore it and make anybody who sheds light on it,
chrispydtankPS4
The bad person. Especially if it invades people's rights/privileges/morals that they feel righteous to. The saying:
chrispydtankPS4
"facts don't care about your feelings" has a level of truth to it, yet people want balance to this claim. So it's no wonder it's been said
theEarlOfSharts
Well not necessarily. Research has shown that religiosity goes down with education, wealth and progress. Maybe one day. Maybe one day.
SilverNicktail
....because religious people inhibit education, wealth and progress.
realargonwolf
You're probably right. Religious people are possibly the biggest reason more people aren't religious.
MapleSyrupMafia
Also with generations. My grandparents were religious, our parents were barely taking us to church and none of us kids are going there now.
Goveggie222
Yup my grandparents were Amish.. two generations and I’m atheist and use technology to go on Imgur
Dotheyhangtoolowinthemorning
Which explains why its so strong in the USA.
theEarlOfSharts
The US is a third world country with a Gucci belt. Also, given its large size, if you look deeper the research holds.
theEarlOfSharts
Richer, educated and therefore progressive urban centers tend to be less religious, while the rural areas are the opposite.
AmbassadorOfAndrew
That’s the thing, Christianity doesn’t actually support his stance, folks like him will always find justifications to be a dick
HenchGoalkeeper66
Well said well said sir
TheGhostofCarrieFisher
Christianity for the most part would call out rape but would never vilify the victim nor celebrate the rapist.
butterflybuttler221
Thats mostly true but looking at the biblical punishments for being a rape victim it does imply that they're at fault in at least some cases
CerisCinderwolf
"Recorded in the Bible as dictated by human king" is different than "Biblical" (e.g. dictated by Christ). If that were the case, it's 1/2
CerisCinderwolf
Biblical to cut a baby in half of two women fight over who's child it is (I Kings 3:16-28). ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 2/2
butterflybuttler221
Except Israel didn't have a king then, they were laws of the Pharisees which were supposed to have come from God. But what difference does 1

I mean, it's cool if you pay for them right? https://biblia.com/bible/esv/deuteronomy/22/23-29
Dotheyhangtoolowinthemorning
Must be, the good book says it's ok. Cue the context crowd in 3,2,1....
CerisCinderwolf
These are Moses words, clawing down the law for Israel. He wasn't perfect and Christ even called him out on that in one instance 1/2
CerisCinderwolf
when specifically asked a question about Moses permitting divorce. Context actually means something despite trying for a laugh. 2/2
AmbassadorOfAndrew
That’s Old Testament, overruled by Jesus’ teachings, so take that up with Judaism, not Christianity
smolbep
Nope, that's bullshit. Mathew 5:17, Jesus says he is specifically NOT doing that.
Dotheyhangtoolowinthemorning
It's the same thing mate, it's all bullshit.
digitalist1
I've always thought Sodom and Gomorrah was put in the Bible to warn against rape culture, not homosexuality.
butterflybuttler221
Ummmm but lot was considered righteous for offering his daughters to be raped by the crowd instead of the angels, so how would that work?
digitalist1
But lot? Wordy words are hard hards.
butterflybuttler221
'But Lot' or are namey names hard hards for you hunny bunny?
digitalist1
I distinctly remember in that story, the angels became repulsed by the immense gang rape happening, they got mad, no more city.
butterflybuttler221
Gen 19:5-8 the crowd wants the 2 men/angels to "have sex w/ them" ie rape. But Lot offers his 2 virgin daughters to the crowd saying 1
digitalist1
Someone got pissed at the rape in that story and God decided to destroy the city because of it.
butterflybuttler221
Gen 19:5-8 the crowd wants to rape the men/angels & lot pleads with them not to do such a "wicked thing" and instead offers his virgin 1
