Donna, I actually thought it was the Love Shack at first. I was very disapointed with Summer, that is until I found my real home.
I snickered for a few minutes just from the group description. Then I snickered some more from the studied ignoring of the "Jesus is fake!" thread.
Oh, man, flashback to being a teenager at Presbyterian summer camp. I think I may still have a couple of cassettes of "Christian music" from that period in my life. I was soooo earnest. I got over it.
I dunno...you don't seem all that busted up overa it. Hey...if you run into Phelps, give him nice kick in the nuts for all of us. There's a pint-of-your-choice in it for ya.
Huh? I thought this was about the other GoodReads group, JesusLovers, not the crazy Texas cult group in the prairie dresses. Presbyterians aren't that extreme. In fact, they're pretty boring.
oh....well yeah... I was actually addressing Alfonso's crocodile tears on being damn to hell for all eternity - sorry for the mixup. Speaking of hell...Presbyterian Summer Camp? I was quite lucky to be involved with the coolest youth group at my church (First United Methodist). The parents who ran it were cut from a different mold. They actually bought a baby blue hearse to drive us all around to our various functions...boring it was not!
Not bill, those crocodile tears may be real now… I heard that there are frogs in hell now… Dante lied to me!!!!
Christians get a bum rap (some of it deserved) because they're perceived as being part of the dominant paradigm. It's a way of "stickin' it to The Man" ...and, it like, feels cool. But lordy mae don't say anything bad about ol Mo..and sure as sh!t don't draw any cartoons or you'll have Rage Boy and the rest of the Wazibillies over in Pakland goin ape, burning flags and blowin' up trains.
LOL... frogs! Ever see the movie, Frogs? I've actually got a copy on DVD...now there's hell on earth.
"Mocking and hating the haters of mocking" LOL...that's pure gold there Donna. And yes, if it ain't sizzlin', it ain't hate.
Kami, I imagine the Muslims would beg to differ with your statement that non-Christian religions don't get much hate.Only tangentially related to this thread, I hate it when I call someone's home to leave them a work-related message, and I get blessed several times and reminded to thank god by her answering machine. I'm pretty sure there's government money that in some way pays at least part of my salary...shouldn't I be exempt from being blessed? You know, separation of church and state and all? What if I brought a note from my doctor that being prayed for exacerbates my impetigo?
Dammit Lisa! You beat me by a minute!
"No other religion has as many people against it as Christianity does"
Made me laugh as hard as a Muslim in secondary inspection at the airport :D

Yeah, well do you think there just might be a reason for why Muslims might be feelin' the heat a little? ...just sayin'.
heh heh - are my horns showin'?.... someone's gotta play devil's advocate and this is a thread about goin' to hell. Seemed appropriate.
I went to a minor league ball game in Charlotte, NC (my first trip EVER to the American South) and there was a girl selling big foam fingers at the ballpark. She looked at me and my husband, put her big foam fingers down, came over to us and whipped out a little notebook. This is what she said (in the most ridiculous squeaky little-girl southern accent I have ever heard.) "Is there anything ya'll'd like me to pray for you for?" We sat there staring at her like, this can NOT be real. I wanted to ignore her, but she stayed there looking at us in this little pathetic earnest way. I said, in what was not a very polite tone of voice, "No." She was oblivious to my tone of voice though. My husband and I were like "What the fuck just happened???!??!!!?" I thought maybe it was a south thing, but they guy sitting in front of me turned around and said, "oh no. I've lived in the south my whole life and I have NEVER seen that happen." So I don't know...it's not like the word agnostic is tattooed across my forehead. Oh, I just went on that Jesus Lovers group. One of the posts registered shock that someone had the name Jesus, because there is really only one Jesus!!!!! Someone else actually had to explain that it is pronounced Hey-soos, and is quite common in Mexico and other places like that. But don't worry, it's not that they are trying to say they're like Jesus or anything. So clearly the Jesus Lovers group is not just for Christians, it's for idiot Christians.
why do yall always have to b rude, yall unbelievers? WOuld you say it's diotic not to know that some people are not aware of haysoos cause they've never been around mexicans or exposed to it. I think it's decent intelligence to actually ask why someone is calling themselves Jesus. The only thing I find idiotic is someone not asking a question because they're afraid it's a stupid one. No dear, not trying to find out something you are aware of your ignorance about is stupid.and yes, I'm fully aware that my first sentence is a generalization. I know plenty of nice unbelievers.
It's not ironic. I was rude.Take the stick out of your eye first right? Well since I can admit that I was rude, I can now call out someone else when they're rude.
OK, maybe I was hasty saying that someone is an idiot because she is questioning the name Jesus. But it just seems to me that you have to be not only living under a rock to have never heard that name, but that you have to be WILLFULLY ignorant to have never heard of it. So I will correct my statement that Jesus Lovers is a group for WILLFULLY ignorant christians, rather than idiot christians. Feel better?Seriously, I've never traveled to a Latin American country, and according to Wikipedia the town in which I grew up has a hispanic population of 0.82%, so I didn't grow up knowing any Jesuses (or Carloses or Catalinas...you get the drift). But I can't ever remember a time when I didn't know that Jesus is an extremely common name in the latin american countries. And I'm sure that even as a young child, when I did learn it, I STILL realized that it is part of a culture different than the pasty-white culture my parents chose to raise me and my siblings in. Because we chose not to be willfully ignorant of other cultures.
how can you say that the group is for ignorant christians when it is members of the group who explained to the poster that jesus was hispanic? There was actually only one person there, the original poster, who was not aware of the background and I commend them for trying to understand.In fact, I found all the posts there pretty benign. Sorry if I seemed harsh but since Jesus says anyone who calls his brother "idiot" deserves to burn in hell, I'm pretty sensitive to that term. I dont mind calling actions idiotic but people, that's another thing all together.
FUCK!!! I just wrote a whole reply which I lost somehow when I bumped my keyboard, and it included this great story of a co-worker who named her son Yahweh. Shit..I gotta get back to work, maybe I'll pick this up later....
Yes, it's totally blasphemous to even SAY Yahweh in judiasm. Even to write it, they abbreviate it YHWH. I think it's called the ineffible name, or something like that. Anyway, my story was that my other Jewish co-workers (including one Orthodox Jew) didn't give this girl shit about naming her son Yahweh, which is a far less-common name than Jesus. Also, I always wondered what little Yahweh's teacher would do if she was Jewish. Would she skip calling his name in rollcall??? Would she have him go by his middle name (which was Cyrus, by the way). It's funny, this was several years ago, and I can't even remember my co-worker's name, but I totally remember she named her son Yahweh Cyrus....
Did anyone hear the NPR program on unusual, and in some cases awful, given names?The winner of the current "worst" name is Iona Knipl.
I have a personal vote from my work, I helped a young lady named Heidi Weide (vowels in last name pronounced same as the first name).
Aaaaaand....we've come full circle. Calling someone an idiot means you're going to hell.Good thing this is already the thread for people who hate that they're going to hell.
Me, I kind of look forward to it.
Has anyone checked if Alfonso has in fact already gone to hell? I mean...one would think he would have found his way there by now.
is hot... i'm in pain... (i fell down the stairs yestarday) i'm high in pain killers...dude... i think i am in hell!!! no frogs so far! thats good.
if the frog is spitting fire and talking to you in the voice of one of one of your parents you may be in hell... or tripping on some really good shrooms...
Is there any sound that can scare a frog away??? I usually just scream like a little girl and run in the opposite direction but I never look back to see if it works... god never try somebody else's prescription medicine I’m tripping balls here =P
