I don’t hate Christians. I hate vexatious litigators like the one in the OP.


I agree, it's a hilarious legal claim

There's no grounds for legal action, but people should recognize that pole dancing is generally something that shouldn't be broadcasted to tens of millions, many of them children.

Christian identity isn't even normal evangelical protestantism. It's racism trying to mix religion into its tenants. They claim black people are pre Adamic soulless mud people, which is strange considering how black people seem to have as much of or as little of a soul as whites, but go figure. They also think the original Israelites were the ancestors of the Europeans and that modern Jews are the spawn of satan. What a bunch of weirdos

I don’t hate Christianity or Christians. But I don’t tend to give any credence to hypocritical bullshitters who try to profit off of contrived outrage.
Your faith does not amuse me. Fundamentalism is a singularly unfunny disposition- A Rightist Puppet

In short, "fascist" is a modern word for "heretic," branding an individual worthy of excommunication from the body politic. The right uses otherwords ("reverse-racist," "feminazi," "unamerican," "communist") for similiar purposes, but these words have less elastic meanings. Fascism, however, is the gift that keeps on giving. - Jonah Goldberg, revisited.

The problem with saying "I like Christians, but fundamentalists should be ridiculed" is that the definition of fundamentalists tends to malleable. In a secular crowd you might be fine doing such ridicule, but to religious people it just makes it look like you're making fun of people with intense faith. I would no doubt be labeled a "fundamentalist" for a few of my religious positions, despite being Catholic.

Parents knew exactly what kind of show they were tuning into.

Parents these days give kids Internet access despite all the warnings out there about the Internet, so there is no amount of warning you could give them that would dissuade them.

"Fundamentalist" isn't just "the same but more," its very definition is "taking the Bible literally." Of all the absurdities in the Bible, its literal interpretation just stands out.

Eh, I'm not sure how drunk a guy has to be for who becomes the rapist to be reversed. That one might be more a question for a lawyer. Off to the legality of moments in fiction thread!

Either way, it goes against the "Christianity only supports married/procreative sex" narrative.

When people begin taking their religion and trying to force it upon others by basing laws on their beliefs (sale of alcohol, homosexuality, etc) then it becomes a problem. Someone that has intense faith isn’t a problem and in fact can be admirable. That changes when said person is both intensely religious AND tries to force the people around them to follow the same religious observations and rules.
