stop trying to give me an ultimatum, saying iā€™ll go to hell or that we canā€™t be friends if i donā€™t pray.

if iā€™m uncertain that god exists because thereā€™s NO PROOF EITHER WAY for me.

iā€™m not a ā€œperfectā€ straight christian woman like you are, iā€™m not going to change myself because my looks ā€œtemptā€ men. i dress for me, not for men.

i donā€™t CARE if same-gender relationships are ā€œsinsā€ and youā€™ll go to hell. there are some pro-lgbt churches. i donā€™t care if ā€œall women are for is to complement men and theyā€™re inferior and they should only be with other men for that reasonā€.

this shit makes me so mad. i donā€™t have to be religious if i donā€™t want to be. thereā€™s this one straight christian woman i know and she hates other women itā€™s so annoying, and she claims to support the lgbt but ā€œdoesnā€™t care about gay/trans rightsā€.

omfg shut up, thereā€™s some actual kind christians despite me not being one myself, but these people obviously arenā€™t.

if youā€™re genuinely curious as to whether i pray, am christian/religious, or go to church, then thatā€™s fine, but DONā€™T TRY TO FORCE ME. i thought christianity preached acceptance??

    Might want to change the name of your religion then, because itā€™s been mainly overtaken by evil hateful people, and youā€™re not going to get it back.

        Iā€™m aware of what atheism is, thanks, sweetie.

        Maybe donā€™t talk like you know what a ā€œā€ā€œreal Christianā€ā€œā€ is. I know what it is because I lived that life and am now stuck in a town where itā€™s the majority. Fuck your pussyfooting.

        Sit down.

          Does that ever work? It isnā€™t going to work with me.

          Itā€™s obvious that the loudest modern ā€œā€ā€œā€ā€œā€ā€œā€œChristiansā€ā€ā€œā€ā€œā€ā€œā€ (Iā€™m not sure what the point of all those quotation marks is but Iā€™m just going with it) pick and choose the most hateful passages of the Old Testament to justify their own fear, hate, and self loathing.

          You may not like it but it is the truth.

              It doesnā€™t hurt my feelings. As Iā€™ve said a couple of times, I live in a country with actual religious freedom where what those shitty people believe doesnā€™t effect me in any way. Their beliefs donā€™t prevent my gay friends from marrying and they donā€™t prevent my wife, daughter, and female friends from making decorations about their own healthcare without interference from shitty people who donā€™t know them.

              There is a difference between pointing out that they are shitty people and having hurt feelings. It appears that the only people with hurt feelings in this conversation are those who are butt hurt because I pointed out that some modern Christians are horrible people.
