Patriotic types are just like religious fanatics; their way is THE way, they're "right" and you're "wrong," and you can't argue with them.

F--- off.

How to convert Muslims to Christianity — Jeeves, Fri Jun 22 1:02pm

They are "missionary groups". The purpose of missionaries is to convert nonbelievers to your faith. The way to convert Muslims to Christianity is... Christian missionary group with pig's head taunt... more
Yes, taunting and insulting them is a great way to convert — David F Mayer, Sun Jun 24 5:58pm

them --- NOT. How goddamned stupid can these idiots be? The way to convert Muslims to Christianity is to convince them that Christianity is a more gentle, more loving, more humane, more decent... more
once again the dumbing down — Trish, Sat Jun 23 6:32am

of America rears its ugly head. Even as a non Christian I challenge What would Jesus Do? I suspect he'd throw these folks out of the temple.
In the past I would have said — Heathen57, Sat Jun 23 6:25am

that these 'missionaries' were in the extreme, the ones who would have been at the head of another Crusade. However, given the current state of religious and political strife caused by Christianity,... more
They look like the same people who go to football games, — Ken C, Fri Jun 22 6:59pm

and not what I consider typical religious people.
What, football is not a religion? — ChristopherBlackwell, Sat Jun 23 12:46pm

Ken C, Obviously you have not heard of the Church of Monday Night Football. Certainly in many parts of the country football is treated like a religion and the players like priests, coaches like... more
Of course it is! — Poppet, Mon Jun 25 5:37pm

Of course, I'm into a somewhat different "church of football."
God, I hate this country anymore — greenman, Fri Jun 22 3:27pm

Nothing but raving lunatics spewing hatred at each other. Sure, some of it's religious, like this filth, but its political, racial, economic... We're insane. We're not fit to share the world with the ... more
Well, I sure disagree with your — Gateway, Sat Jun 23 12:37pm

belief. Tho this country is far from perfect I don't know of any other country that offers more. Sure, we have our bigots, lunatics and a wide variety of nuts but in spite of our problems, I still... more
I suggest — greenman, Sat Jun 23 6:53pm

..you take your patriotic crapola somewhere else, loser.
My comment was not intended — Gateway, Sat Jun 23 8:44pm

for patriotic bravado but for love and appreciation of a country that has offered a good life. Loser, hardly. How often do you kick your parents in the ass for birthing you in this country?
Again, I disagree — greenman, Sun Jun 24 2:43pm
Well, my love and appreciation — Gateway, Sun Jun 24 3:56pm

for this country I suppose, can be called patriotic but that was not my intention, I cant argue that point. I am not nor have I ever considered myself to be a fanatic. Your labeling me a fanatic is... more
Discussion at end — greenman, Sun Jun 24 6:50pm

No ignorant mother...er calls me "dishonest."
You rail against people you — Gateway, Sun Jun 24 8:31pm

disagree with and you are no better than they. You justify your attacks against them as righteous with almost a religious fervor. There is a sickness to your posts that transcends emotional concern... more
Get lost — greenman, Mon Jun 25 5:29pm

You're a piece of shit in human form. Take your boyfriend and go away, far away. Stupid religious asshole.
Gateway ... — Mondo Fuego™ , Sun Jun 24 11:01pm

... you are wasting your time. There are better fish to fry.
Go fry your ass, you miserable coward — greenman, Mon Jun 25 5:31pm

Quit hiding behind DNRs and attacking others, pissant. You're the worst excuse for a human being I've yet come across on these boards. Now c'mon, pussy, go and whine to Ken that you're being... more
I apologize for the above — greenman, Tue Jun 26 4:32pm

I should know better. Sorry, Ken. My apologies.
I wish more moderate Christians... — Truthteller, Fri Jun 22 2:26pm

would raise an outcry against this sort of bigotry and hatred, but they never seem to. Doesn't make them a whole lot better than these louts.
Re: I wish more moderate Christians... — yome, Sun Jun 24 12:59am

they probably do but we hardly ever here the good news stories that happen around the world, it seems we only hear the bad news. i guess the bad sells better. hope alls well with you and your's.
The real problem with Christian crazies — ChristopherBlackwell, Fri Jun 22 4:50pm

Truthteller, Is that the moderate and liberalChristians never stand up against them and never have all through Christian history. As they saw all it takes for evil to win,is for good people to do... more
in all fairness SOME — Trish, Sat Jun 23 6:36am

Moderate Christians do stand up. The first picture in this gallery says so: http://www.buzzfeed.com/expresident/pictures-that-will-restore-your-faith-in-humanity the rest will likewise make your... more
Those pics are great! — Truthteller, Sat Jun 23 1:31pm

and I do believe that it shows that MOST people are decent folks. I love the idea of interfaith dialogues, and I believe that more Pagans are being welcomed to the table in them.
Trish, I hope that you are right — ChristopherBlackwell, Sat Jun 23 12:42pm

Trish, I hope that moderates do and will stand up, because that is the only way to stop the craziness. As for Crazies in all beliefs and non beliefs, certainly. The problem is the human factor.... more
