: Millions of Christians say Buddha was bullshit
I'm not exactly sure what you mean by this, but I guess you're saying that Christians say that Buddhist are wrong ... all religions say other religions are wrong, if they didn't it'd be about like Coke saying "Pepsi's pretty good"
: and Allah is a terrorist (okay, one Christian, but still).
Still not really sure what you're talking about -- a Christian said Allah (Muslim God) is a terrorist? Well, most Christians don't believe Allah is real so ... imaginary terrorist aren't too scary.
: That's pretty fucking mean.
Very fucking mean.
: Goes way beyond pissing in a bottle of wine.
Or shitting in a can.
My whole point was that you really can't turn around without hearing someone bad mouthing Christ (or Christians). The problem is that we're letting the wrong people be our spokes models. I'm not the best Christian in the world - I cuss, lie, cheat, lust, am greedy, etc. - but I'm not going to walk around with a sign saying "God Hates Fags" because ... well, because he doesn't, and that would be a lie. (lying is a sin) To COMPLETELY steal something Dennis Miller said once, "Sure, the Bible says being a homosexual is a sin, but it also says gluttony is a sin, so until I lose about 40 pounds I'm not going to judge anyone."
Please lay off the Christ bashing - if you must make fun of a religion make fun of those worthless tree huggin' pagens, because they suck ... just kidding.
