Failed Provocation

jasminevalerie:

you know, the ones who think they’re superior to religious people, especially Christians. the ones who think religious people are annoying, especially Christians. the ones who don’t hate ALL Christians, just the ones who… actually read the Bible and take it seriously- in other words, the “fundies.” the ones who don’t hate ALL Christians, just the ones who think that Jesus’ gift of salvation is so important that they want to tell others about this wonderful gift- in other words, “imposing their beliefs on others.” the ones who deep down are insecure about their own beliefs so they go out of their way to needlessly write paragraph after paragraph on the internet about how much the Bible is so totally false, or how much Christians are evil hateful bigots, or how much Christians are too stoopid to understand science.

This amounts to a failed provocation.  “Jesus loves you” shouldn’t make an atheist mad at all.  Actually, hearing that puts a smile on my face because I am granted the opportunity to shake your arrogant faith.  You say Jesus loves me; well, I’m sure you mean Jesus Christ loves me.  Here’s the thing:  a nonexistent myth cannot love someone.  Jesus the Christ did not exist; did Jesus the man exist?  That is entirely another matter, but if you’re interested, check out my historicity page.  Your Jesus is nothing but a question mark and if I were you, I would do what’s intellectually honest and leave him as a question mark.  You shouldn’t be so certain of his existence when considering that there’s no evidence to prove that Jesus Christ existed.  By the way, you spelled stupid wrong; that doesn’t go a long way in establishing equal footing with us.
