To me this Facebook boomer meme style is not something I find helpful for anyone, it’s just rage bait. If this is the kind of thing religious people think of atheists when we discuss our beliefs, it’s starting on a bad foot.
“Putting it on the table” when it’s a plate of poop just perpetuates their persecution complex. Maybe something more thought-provoking and less aggressive would be better. “You catch more flies with honey than vinegar”.
Considering your religion has been used to justify murder, racism, bigotry, homophobia, and countless other injustices….
And considering you learned about your religion from the exact people that caused and perpetrated these injustices……
You need to get your head out of your ass with that bs.
I give zero f’s about what your religion has to say. And it needs to be absolutely clear that your beliefs don’t get to dictate mine or anyone else’s life.
If you don’t like that. Too bad.
The only plate of poop here is religious beliefs.
I don’t need to catch flies or convert people to my side.
But I do need religious folks to understand that they can GTFO of my life and lifestyle, and that your religion does not fucking matter to anyone but you.
(Edit: rhetorical you, you seem like a reasonable person, but I think this can’t be overstated enough. Whatever your religion is it doesn’t matter to anyone but you.)
But I do need religious folks to understand that they can GTFO of my life and lifestyle, and that your religion does not fucking matter to anyone but you.
I could not agree more with this. And I mean, it’s ok for us to disagree on how we express it, though.
