Spoony seems very reasonable and logical when arguing with Jehovah's Witnesses or Baptist mindrape victims. There are enough Christians that don't believe in heaven and especially hell as literal places, or believe that the Ougabongo tribe is going to hell because missionaries never visited their part of the rain forrest.


With the amount of inconsistency in beliefs. With the amount of picking and choosing that seems to go on if you call yourself a Christian / insert religion here. "Oh I believe this and this, however this part of the Bible / teachings is bullshit. "Oh I don't take this literally"

It fucking pisses me off to no end. If there is a God and I am called before such a being one day to answer for my sins and why I did not follow the righteous one; I will promptly point out the amount of fucking inconsistency and bullshit that existed between people in my lifetime and argue that there was no clear path to follow.

Futile to even think up scenarios like this If I ever did find myself in this situation, I know. An all knowing being surely knows what I am going to say and have some amazingly enlightening answer for me on my way to a literal, figurative, metaphorical (Insert your bullshit definition for hell here).

The amount of denominations that stem from one religion or religious figure, let alone the entirety of religions - forms one big fucking cesspit of lies, deception, conflicting stories, conflicting beliefs etc. If you choose to align yourself with such people, then I no longer question the reasoning behind your beliefs. I bid you good luck and hope your God turns out to be real after all; because you have some serious competition.
