If you were not a member of Thomas Road Church you were pitied and scorned. But as long as you gave money to the church they could conveniently overlook the fact that you were divorced. They have no tolerance even for other Baptists who did not see things his way. Forget about other Christian denominations entirely. They were looked upon as poor dears who just missed the boat. They were regularly talked about in negative ways. After all, ONLY the Jerry Falwell way is the correct way. So it still goes on even after his enormous corpse is rotting under the “eternal flame” above his grave. Luckily it is probably fueled by the immense amout of GAS mixed with HOT AIR that is still being prduced by him. FDLMAO.

For a fundamentalist who must have preached against the horrible deadly sin of GLUTTONY he sure did a good job of porking out each day. Guess the rules God told him about applied to everyone else except him. He was special.

Oh well, one less agent of hatred and intolerance on the earth.

There you go condemning people to Hell again. Get off your high horse. Fundamentalists are hateful. They’re hateful even to other Christians like Catholics. If Jesus is really the man they say he is in the bible, a caring and compassionate man who accepts all his children on this earth than he’s probably not very pleased with Fundies right now. Still accepts them but not the least bit pleased

@Heather….thanks….that is a mouthful! Can’t we just find something easier?? maybe just the Q community….can “Queer” apply to pretty much everything?? :)

Really? People get this upset when it is pointed out that what Christians (and really all religious/’spiritual’ people) believe in is ridiculous and laughable.

If everyone is declaring there is are invisible, magical unicorn following them around, it is hardly offensive to tell them they are deluded and/or tripping and should seek mental health services.

Religious idiocy is not in some special category that makes it above discussion, ridicule or critique.

There is no such thing and being mean-spirited. These institutions and ideologies have been what have kept humans down for millennia now.

People insist on continuing to identify with these despicable and disgusting traditions and institutions. So they need to either accept the baggage that comes with that and stop being whiny bitches.

You are the ones identifying with these oppressive and deluded ideologies. So suck it.

also……this points to the fundamental hypocrisy and absurd arrogance of fundamentalist christianism. i know many people of whom this paints a very accurate picture.

it is good to point out though that not all Christians are like this…..in fact, the majority aren’t. it’s just that the minority are far LOUDER than they are numerous.

Unless you’re just looking to get your bitch on, in which case…bitch away.

Maybe it’s over my head, but I’m not seeing the value in this post.

No, the headline specifically says “fundamentalist Christian” which would imply that there are Christians that are not fundamentalist.

-This quote is actually the best example.

Attacking fundamentalist on their religious beliefs is sinking to the same level of dehumanization that they use on the gay community. You’re just creating a caricature of their faith for a lacking feature article.

Lacks only something about the contrast between Christ’s position on riches and fundies’ acquisitive skill.

I add that
“You call your god compassionate and loving, even when it commands to stone women, hang homosexuals. and commit suicide mass murder”
