They were on every corner. Big yellow signs, huge signs like 8 feet across and 5 feet high. They were talking and yelling but they wouldn't look you in the eye. I told one of them in passing, "I love Satan." A girl passing the other way overheard and burst out laughing.

Why are Jesus people so obnoxious?

[TheDom]

haha

at my school every morning kids form a "prayer circle" around the flag pole.

last week some kid pushed his way in the middle and started screaming "SATAN WILL EAT YOUR BABIES" and shit like that.

[porkmarras]

And what sort of jesus were they banging on about?

[krastian]

A Personal Jesus?

[k-krack]

i hate those bastards. some came to our high school with the treat of free miniature bibles. i asked (paraphrase) "why are you here? this is not a religious school, and if we wanted to look into this, we would."

[gmku]

They were out-of-towners, to be sure. Hillbilly freaks. Bible thumpers, fire and brimstone, yelling about how we were just wasting our lives if we didn't sign on with the Jesus team.

[Rob Instigator]

tell them jesus loved whores and lepers and addicts and diseased people and the lowest of the low, and that Jeebus said that they, his "foloowers" should do the same.

I want to burn down lakewood church

[porkmarras]

Can i ask (and this out of complete ignorance on my part) how influential are these people in certain parts of the USA?I mean,you read and hear this and that but i'd like to read about more specific episodes of bigotry and such things.

There's a great book that explains why those twats are horribly wrong. I like to call it the Bible. I think they all have copies of it, but rarely do they actually read the fucking thing.

[Edit: to Rob Instigator]

Nah, it's a waste of energy. They don't really hear you or see you. I think their leader makes them drink weird Kool Aid before they descend on us.

GAYEST. POST. EVER.

[!@#$%!]

someone posted a link to this picture once. not only is it very memorable, but i also love it:

 

it's in an MIT website, no less. gotta love those geeks.

and why are jesus people obnoxious, you ask? for the same reason we love those geeks, but they are found in the opposite pole of the spectrum: they are a bunch of fucking morons. and so they arouse our contempt.

But Jesus is such a horribly obvious target too!Who enjoys battering someone who simply hasn't even existed but whose unproven,invisible presence has sometimes saved reformed alcoholics,bono and the likes?

[atari 2600]

[Cantankerous]

eh, jesus may be one of the most powerful ghosts in history. coming from a catholic country, i know what it can do. and looking at the american ayatollahs, well, it's worse here even....

[porkmarras]

Thanks thy Lord for that.
