Reminds me of this meme.

A tool, any tool, once invented, can be used by anyone. Should only black people be able to eat peanut butter because it was invented by Carver?

I think there is a high probability we are all using devices that were invented by people with contrary beliefs

And no where in the Bible does it cover computers. Maybe God hates computers and does not believe any of his followers should be using them. How is a Christian supposed to know for sure.

Christians straight-up hijacked tons of stuff, twisted it around, rebranded it, and used it for their own ends centuries before the internet (e.g. pagan Yule fest becomes "Christmas", Great Mother goddess becomes Mary, myths lifted from other cultures, etc. et al.). It's nothing new.

They do it unselfconsciously, unironically.
And the best part is: whatever they do is okay, because God's will! barf

They're not the only ones in the world who do this, I'm sure--but they're the only ones I know much about.

The internet is full of porn. Listen to your pope, "Stop it or you'll go blind!"

You don't mean that you'd like to apply logic to religion, do you?

The religious idiots will use anything to get you to give them some money! They are desperate for money! If you don’t support them and give them money you will go to hell!

ISIS uses the internet for recruiting, and they're intellectual Neanderthals. Nope not much surprises me anymore.

I find it absolutely hilarious and hypocritical.
I'm sure they have tried to explain that away by saying some stupid shit like "God work through an atheist to create the computer."
Ah... Religious people are funny in a sad, sad way.

Is it better than going door-to-door? They do both though. They use modern technology to spread the gospel. A lot of people are duped and believe everything they hear and read. They need to keep god in their churches, in their homes, and in their heads.

I don't think it's even a little bit odd. Religions have a long history of using whatever methods were at their disposal for spreading their poison and recruiting new victims.
Their hypocrisy isn't concerned with atheists inventing the means for their latest attempts at recruitment. Look at how the islamists use the internet to recruit and radicalize.
They've all been at this bs forever.

Hmm… well, I don't like Thomas Edison's business practices, but I still use lightbulbs.

Why does it matter? Id find it odd if dogs were using the internet when people made it... But as far as Ive seen a belief in a higher power doesn't correlate to their intelligence or use of tools...

Yup. What you said!

I really hate it when a new religious radio station pops up and overpowers some station near me. It has happened twice now, one station was from across the lake in Canada and another was a local college station....grrrrrr

Religions take whatever they find and dedicate it "to the glory", It would be odd if they did not use whatever means of communication they came across. Ironic perhaps but not at all surprising to me.

Recruitment and tithes is the business model of Christianity.

Mennonites are similar to Amish. They live like the clock stopped in the 19th century. They have a specific dress code. You can imagine the irony I experienced when I noticed a young Mennonite lady with her old timey dress and bonnet typing away on her Mac book and running people's credit cards as payment for "authentic" Amish goods. Super hypocritical.

Not really. Tools are used by all sorts to accomplish good and bad. Are we surprised that the internet is used for child porn?

Well, we are who they want to recruit, aren't we?

Not really, they exploit platforms. Don’t believe me? Ride a subway with a proselytizer. It’s no skin off their noses for anyone who finds it repugnant but they can reel in the others who’d elsewise be out of reach.

Sometimes post over here are... never mind.

Ok, I need to clear this up real quick. This is a shot at the West borough Baptists church.
