“Some people are smart enough to understand the Big Bang, and Evolution, and Geonomic Relativism. They’re smart enough to have the insight to be atheists.

But let’s face it, you’re not one of them.

Why? Because you have an arts degree and a lazy mind.

Let’s face it, if I came to your door, right now, and asked you to explain why Genesis was any less logical than the Big Bang, you couldn’t even stumble out a semblance of a answer…

So where do you get off… acting so smart… like Christians are stupid or something?

Until next time - go to Hell.�?

What's wrong with an arts degree?

Lessee...talking snakes, 6000 year-old earth, divine psychopathy, "Thou Shalt Not Kill" followed by killings...

Not to mention such successful moral crusades as Prohibition, the Crusades, Intelligent Design, etc...

Yeah, Chistians are full of brilliance...

What, you gotta group all Christians under the moron category just cos random groups of arseholes liked to fuck things up?!

Is it necessary to take the Bible literally, either?

Have you actually read the ten commandments in full? It ain't as simple as 'thou shalt not kill'

Religious Wars - doesn't sound stupid to me. Despotic, yes. Stupid, no.

Unusually charming responses… Fortunately, I am sufficiently thuggish to say:

“You may have noticed that that I like Americans.

And yet, every Australian I talk to, ridicules them. They say Americans are ‘stupid’, ‘insular’ and ‘don’t have any conception about the world outside their own borders’.

Unlike
you

… ok smart-person, tell me where “Zaire�? is? Huh? Well?

If you knew where it is, you’re an idiot, because “Zaire�? changed its name some years ago. If you thought, “Republic of the Congo�? you’re an idiot too, because the “Republic of the Congo�? is a completely different country from the “Democratic Republic of the Congo�?. Or didn’t you know that?

It’s a country where 3 million people have died in a civil war, since 1998.

So, next time you want to say anything about "insular Americans", just remember that 3 million people have just died, in a country that you‘ve never heard of.

Until next time - go to Hell."
