By way of [livejournal.com profile] dark_christian, here's an amusing way to spend your Saturday night:


Fundies Say The Damndest Things


Bizarre and outrageous quotes from the Jesus Whackateria.


*stares* The stupid...it's so sparkly. I can't look away!

Yeah. I really love the ones that advocate putting breastfeeding babies on a rigid schedule, so that feedings revolve around the mothers' convenience rather than the babies' hunger. Then they wonder why the kids slowly starve to death or develop extreme psychological disorders.

Because, you know, Jesus said that children should suffer.

*eyeroll* Or the one where a mother writes to the creepy author of one of those horrible books, saying: 'every time I beat my 3 year old daughter, she gets all rigid and acts really scared.' And the creep says: 'Well, this sounds like a child being mortally afraid, but since this can not be the case here, there must be something wrong with your daughter.' 0_o Or when a little child has a cookie, the mother should take it away, beat the child, then deny the child his or her dinner, but make him or her watch while the other family members eat a lovely meal, all the while telling the child it's his or her own fault, because he or she is such a glutton.

What is WRONG with these people?! Don't they realize how harmful they are? ACK! Jesus does not love them; Jesus is ashamed of them. Things like these really make me doubt there is a God, because if there was, (s)he would stop the crazy people, wouldn't (s)he?

They're weak-minded children who can't think for themselves, scared of the world and scared of the future and scared of death and scared of themselves. They think they need a Big Daddy with a Really Big Stick to tell them what to do, even if it makes hash of their brains and hell of their children's lives. So they make great targets for any power-hungry asshole who promises to do their thinking for them.

Pretty pathetic, when you get right down to it.

This reminds me of a lot of other very scary scenarios. But you're right. We all look for guidance and purpose, but this mindless behaviour can't be the right way. You can't say all religions are bad, I guess, because someone who converts to Buddhism and devotes the rest of their life to promoting peace and love is alright in my book. They would not call Christians pagans either, but the fundies would call them that in a heartbeat. Wasn't it you who posted that Youtube clip not too long ago? That was a Hindu 'priest' they were harrassing, wasn't it? It really made me feel embarrassed to watch it.
