I don't hate Christians. Do you hate atheists? Were you picked on by one when you were a kid? :rolleyes: This is just an allegory I saw posted on another site. It's too bad you couldn't enjoy it. I happen to not enjoy much of the stuff you post here either. Alvaro

Thanks for asking the tough questions, e. I, too, have often wondered why we have Christians. Some, at least...

Dude, I didn't brand it as a joke. Some are laughing at it. Some hate it. And some don't even get it. Here[^] is your punchline. Alvaro

It's not a matter of love, hate or getting it. It's a 5 page joke without a punchline that you sold as a must read! NOW GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK!

Not as a general rule. I do get annoyed by militant atheists like yourself who are constantly tring to shove your belief system down other peoples' throats while saying that having a belief system is asinine. Very hypocritical (which is ironic since hypocrisy is the only vice of the atheist).

And you make it known. So why complain when I make it known that your joke is a 5 page waste of time? Kind of hypocritical, don't you think?

This is like a palindrone. It makes the same amount of sense whether you read it forwards or backwards. ;P Chris Meech I am Canadian.

Actually, Alvaro chose the wrong religion here - had he chosen Islam, he'd have got 20+ 5 votes here and lots of support. He happened to pick a religion that has a few sensitive and vocal members here. As I said, bad choice of religion from a public reception point of view :-) Regards, Nish

At least the atheist has balls to say that it is his beliefs, and not some commandment from some backward text.

Yeah, but that usually applies in general. When you make a comment suggesting genocide of Christians, that's a whole other story.

Well...Diego said: "This is, by far, the best joke I've seen in this place." To which you responded: "This one came from fark.com." Thereby branding it a joke. Now do something to make it funny.
You're like a kid with an inferiority complex. Too little Christ in your life?

Wow! After once being a "regular", I now stop by the soapbox only sporadically. You're one of the most annoying trolls I've seen here in a while.

We're sorry, Alvaro is busy at the moment. Please entertain yourself by reading his signature below, which at the moment happens to be very appropriate. Thank you and have a nice day.

I'm not sure this is a repost, but it's worth the read. This morning there was a knock at my door. When I answered the door I found a well groomed, nicely dressed couple. The man spoke first: John: "Hi! I'm John, and this is Mary." Mary: "Hi! We're here to invite you to come kiss Hank's ass with us." Me: "Pardon me?! What are you talking about? Who's Hank, and why would I want to kiss His ass?" John: "If you kiss Hank's ass, He'll give you a million dollars; and if you don't, He'll kick the shiat out of you." Me: "What? Is this some sort of bizarre mob shake-down?" John: "Hank is a billionaire philanthropist. Hank built this town. Hank owns this town. He can do whatever He wants, and what He wants is to give you a million dollars, but He can't until you kiss His ass." Me: "That doesn't make any sense. Why..." Mary: "Who are you to question Hank's gift? Don't you want a million dollars? Isn't it worth a little kiss on the ass?" Me: "Well maybe, if it's legit, but..." John: "Then come kiss Hank's ass with us." Me: "Do you kiss Hank's ass often?" Mary: "Oh yes, all the time..." Me: "And has He given you a million dollars?" John: "Well no. You don't actually get the money until you leave town." Me: "So why don't you just leave town now?" Mary: "You can't leave until Hank tells you to, or you don't get the money, and He kicks the shiat out of you." Me: "Do you know anyone who kissed Hank's ass, left town, and got the million dollars?" John: "My mother kissed Hank's ass for years. She left town last year, and I'm sure she got the money." Me: "Haven't you talked to her since then?" John: "Of course not, Hank doesn't allow it." Me: "So what makes you think He'll actually give you the money if you've never talked to anyone who got the money?" Mary: "Well, He gives you a little bit before you leave. Maybe you'll get a raise, maybe you'll win a small lotto, maybe you'll just find a twenty-dollar bill on the street." Me: "What's that got to do with Hank?" John: "Hank has certain 'connections.'" Me: "I'm sorry, but this sounds like some sort of bizarre con game." John: "But it's a million dollars, can you really take the chance? And remember, if you don't kiss Hank's ass He'll kick the shiat out of you." Me: "Maybe if I could see Hank, talk to Him, get the details straight from Him..." Mary: "No one sees Hank, no one talks to Hank." Me: "Then how do you kiss His ass?" John: "Sometimes we just blow Him a kiss, and think of

The Ultimate Grid - The #1 MFC grid out there!The funny thing is that it actually applies to pretty much all religions (with a slight Christian bias due to their propensity for door-to-door proselytizing). The book of rules that seem arbitrary and capricious to those outside the religion, the insistance that you accept a man's word that the book comes from a higher power, the threat of dire consequences if you don't believe... I think it plays to insecurity; those whose faith is on tenuous footing see the joke as making fun of their personal religion, whatever it is. Kind of like the nerd at the party that hears people laughing and thinks they're laughing at him. From a public relations standpoint, it's always best to make fun of Buddhism. You can poke fun at Buddhists all day, and they tend to just laugh along. Their Hank actually teaches them a lack of desire to kick people's asses :-D
