[/quote] I'm rude for telling someone to knock off shoving their religious dogma down the throats of people who are hurting terribly, taking advantage of their pain? Really? [/quote] Did I say that? No. Don't put words in my mouth. I said you were rude for trying to deny people the opportunity of speaking of God at times like this when it is exactly the thing we should be talking about. [/quote] You didn't have to, your words said enough. And no it's NOT. These people need love and comfort, they DON'T need to be told that these things happen because we don't believe in God right. Get over your damn religion for a second and just CARE for the people. Is that so fucking hard? Or are you so selfish all you care about is whether they believe in your God? [/quote] No they didn't. "shoving their religious dogma down the throats of people" That is your own biased opinion. People speak of God and similar things at these times to help make sense of the senseless. You just have a major aversion to God and his word because you are a dishonest sinner who doesn't want his sinful life disturbed or at the risk of being convicted in your conscience. These people receive love and comfort through the promises of the word of God and because the word of God explains things like this and why they happen. Get over your damn self and stop being so selfish! [/quote] If someone told YOU that because YOU didn't believe right, God made you suffer would YOU get any comfort from that? Put yourself in their damn shoes, would you want to be comforted or would you want to be preached at?? And I have no aversion to God at all, just religious assholes who have nothing better to do with their lives but to exploit tragedy for their own gain. [/quote] Well, for a start, who said this happened because they didn't believe? I certainly didn't. That is not what I am talking about. "And I have no aversion to God at all, just religious assholes who have nothing better to do with their lives but to exploit tragedy for their own gain." Sure you don't. [/quote]
Original Message
Can we STOP this please? God has nothing to do with them number one, and two it's just flat rude and insensitive to the victims to use their grief and suffering as a pulpit. There's a time and place to talk about God. Someone at their lowest point, feeling unspeakable pain is not it. Period. Enough is enough.
