Could not agree more. Now try it when it's your daughter. It literally hurts my heart.

Evangelicals should be avoided at all costs. They should come with a clear and visible warning label.

Word.

Christians are mostly worshipping Sol without realizing it, yeh. The Cult of Sol descended from Mithraism, and the RCC brought it into the "church." You might ask them how they imagine that the part of them that is supposed to "die"--the ego--could possibly be admitted into some party in the "afterlife" (Valhalla, etc).

Another one is, the Witch of Endor called up Samuel and he came up from the earth, 'But the king said to her, "Don't be afraid. What do you see?" "I see a spirit form coming up out of the earth," the woman answered.'

i have lots of other Bible tidbits to piss off the religious, if they are still talking to you after those

Evangelical movements are pretty rare over here, so I can’t say I have this problem.

Look up " ergot in the time of Christ ". I found it fascinating.

I have the same problem. To add to the sad delusion of everlasting life, they are indoctrinating their children to a lifetime of dedicating themselves to a fairy tale. My sister, her children and their children are Southern Baptists in Oklahoma City where there is a church the size of a convention center on every corner. I just returned from a 6-day visit with them and am exhausted from listening to their Christian blather and being unable to dispute what they were saying. They know I’m an atheist and try to keep the Jesus talk to a minimum, but it still drives me crazy.

I hope I word this correctly. This is my concern. The religion is based on myth. The tragic thing is that people lead their actual lives according to mythology. That is a very real problem.

My neighbourhood is mostly secular with an admixture of catholics and greek orthodox, so I don't meet that many evangelicals any more. However I grew up in an evangelical faith and felt there was almost a culture of competitive stupidity - who can believe the dumbest things in the name of faith!

Impossible to have much of any depth in common with: sure. Impossible to get along with: maybe. If they're not aggressive, gaslighting Southern Bible-Belt types I have had pretty good success finding commonality.

I can relate.

I am surrounded by them here, I just don't engage with them on religion. Some of them are very nice if you just steer clear of certain subjects. I really don’t care that they are not enlightened , its not my business what myths they believe.

I totally agree. Its really sad. Honestly looking back at my past I'm starting to feel bad for myself. Which usually never happens
