Fundie Claim #19: Not all of us are like that! BAWWWWW!

Fundie: Not all of us are like those fundies! Some of us are moderate Christians, and you are lumping us all together and making us all look bad! This is unfair!

A certain Christian threw a BAWWWWfest in the comments to one of my previous posts, claiming that I refuse to make the distinction between fundie theistards and just plain old theistards. However, the best part of the whole BAWWWWfest was how he/she ended it all.

Have you ever thought that not all Christians act like these idiots?

Of course I have! Where did I ever say that all Christians believe the shit that their more fundamentalist kin believe in? What I'm pointing out is that such crazy beliefs do in fact exists in our society; and showing why those beliefs are a pile of theistarded dung.

From a previous post:

Religious myths may be stupid, but their adherents not necessarily are. In fact, I've met fundies who are perfectly intelligent in other aspects apart from their infantile religious beliefs.

Sorry, theistard. You need to ~~lurk moar~~ pay more attention to what I post in the future.

What makes me sad is not that you don't believe in God, it's that you see Christians in the same way these "theistards" see all Atheists. You're as much a fundamentalist Atheist as these people are fundamentalist Christians.

What the flying fuck is a 'fundamentalist atheist'? Atheism simply means a lack of a belief in god/gods - nothing more and nothing less.

So tell me, theistards/appeasers: How exactly does one be a fundamentalist atheist when atheism has no dogma and no creeds?

There's as little black and white in your world as in the world of a fundamentalist Christian. You give all Christians the same respect a few show to you.

There is a huge difference between respect for a person and respect for a person's beliefs. No theistard/appeaser has ever given a convincing case as to why religious beliefs alone must be respected at all costs or as to why atheists are to refrain from criticizing religion.

Do try to keep up, theistard.

I am a God-fearing Christian who learned about evolution, loves science because it gave me a second chance at life, believes in organ donation, contemplates the usefulness of stem-cell research (though still stumped on it), never actively tried to convert my friends to Christianity, and I have never sent one of those "send this on or you hate God" spams.

What's your point? You may have not sent me death threats/spam/creationist tracts, but the fact remains that there are people who do so, and I have the right to blog about those people and show them for the ignoramuses they are on my blog.

Again, what the fuck is your point?

It is posts like these that make Christians believe all Atheists are terrible people, which is something I find to be untrue.

Ah, so criticizing someone's beliefs and exercising my right to free speech makes me a horrible person. Thanks for pointing out your fucktarded mindset, theistard.

Most Christians find that 'living by example' and trying to undermine what most Atheists believe a Christian to be is good enough to spread the word.

That is why we have over 9000 moderate Christians putting their foot down and telling the fundies that their bigotry is childish, archaic, wrong, irrational, and ...

Wait, what?

*snicker*

I am very upset at all these posts you have put up by "Good Christian people" as examples of what all Christians believe.

Where did I make such a generalization? Are you sure you're not just imagining things and hearing voices in your head, theistard?

I hate these posts.

Don't like them? Get your own blog.

I constantly have to argue with some of my friends that these are perversions of Christianity, not the rule. I have never told a friend that "they are going to hell" and that they are beyond saving. The only reason you are is thanks to these "Theistards" who twist the Bible into whatever the hell they want then flap their lips about it until even I am disgusted with my religion.

Perversions? Haven't you 'moderate' Christians realized that you are the one who desperately attempts to ignore parts of the Bible that you think doesn't fit into your modern worldview? Haven't you considered the fact that the fundies are actually the ones who are living by the Bible, and that the reason their behavior sounds so despicable to you is because the Bible is an old book of lies that has no place in modern society?

You're disgusted with your religion? Maybe you should pay a little more attention to what your Bible really says, and realize that if you think that it is the infallible word of god, the fundies have got their interpretation right after all. No matter how much you deny it, the Bible is a book full of bigotry, hate, irrationality, and mythical fantasies. Grow up, theistard.

Now, for the lulzy part of the theistard's comment:

(and don't try to hack that email account if you can see it. It was eaten by spam when I was in 8th grade. I don't even WANT to know what it gets now.)

Translation: I AM TOO STUPID TO REALIZE THAT I CAN JUST LEAVE THE E-MAIL FIELD BLANK AND STILL POST A COMMENT! I AM TOO RETARDED AND IGNORANT TO HAVE EVER READ THE JARGON FILE, AND I BELIEVE WHAT ~~FAUX NOISE~~ FOX NEWS SAYS ABOUT THOSE EVIL HACKERS ON STEROIDS! I NEED TO BUY CURTAINS, A DOG, AND UPDATE MY NORTON BECAUSE MY E-MAIL WAS EATEN BY SPAM AND I DON'T WANT HACKERS TO GET MEEEEEEEEEE! I AM SO AFRAID OF ANONYMOUS THAT I AM GOING TO POOP MY PANTS!
