IF the ramblings of the deranged are true… these are the same folks putting kids back in factories and praying to skydaddy when anything bothers them.
“If.”
The middle word in life
Also the middle of stupifaction
I’m not the least bit concerned about the ramblings of bronze age goat herders.
Fortunately both of those ifs are false
And masturbating makes you blind too, I’m not blind, now fuck off
I don’t know, my glasses are pretty thick.
good thing your mother stopped practicing - as of last night 😎
This post is embarrassingly ignorant and you should be ashamed.
Well, at any point someone could start a philosophical discussion or debate about:
- whether Hell is eternal
- whether torture for eternity is fair for 80 years or less of life
- whether God is compassionate and forgiving
- whether God is malicious
or…
- They could just dismiss it as ignorant, post no elaboration on what they specifically mean, and not realize that Showerthoughts are meant to be humorous and not taken so seriously that you get your panties all wedged up in your crack so that you can’t take a joke anymore. ;D
So… was it a serious statement intended to promote discussion, or just a joke?
You can’t play both teams.
Yes you can! I am sorry if your critical thinking skills are so limited you cannot understand that. Go up and look at Chainweasel’s first comment. He wrote the perfect comment. He understood it, why can’t you?
No, you can’t, and don’t try and gaslight me about it.
You’re either being serious or you’re not. You can’t change your intent based on the response.
And FYI, critical thinking is exactly what enables me to see through this, taking me from “maybe this guy’s just clueless” to “nah just a troll”.
1 - Read and understand “A Modest Proposal” by Jonathan Swift
2 - George Carlin’s entire comedic career was using provocative statements wrapped up inside jokes.
Most of the times opinions are neither right or wrong, they are just opinions. However, in this case your opinion is wrong!
Also, when someone simply disagrees with you that is not “gaslighting”.
The “I was just kidding bro” makes this even sadder. Are you ok?
Counterpoint: I heard another religion says if you don’t have sex, you’re getting tortured for 937 quadrillion years. So having sex saves you a quadrillion years of torture.
If we kill god, we solve both problems.
No Gods or Kings, only Man.
Later day saints theory is that good wouldn’t make you either for eternity, and eventually the sin would burn away and you’d return to nothing.
Then all the really hard mofos like Stalin would joke around with the other damned about how you were too much of a pussy to last in hell.
This is one of those things that make me question anyone who still follows religion.
How exactly is it fair, just, or right to torture a soul for 1*10¹⁰⁰⁰⁰ years for mistakes they made over an ~80 year time span?Any God that acts like a vindictive child isn’t a god worthy of worship.
Excellent point! That was exactly what I was intending to convey in the post title. However, a bunch of people interpreted it as a literal statement posted by a bible thumper.
I’ve heard bible thumpers talk like this. With out any other context is sounds like you’re one of em
Oh wow, I didn’t realize people were down voting this so heavily, it seemed glaringly obvious to me that the title was tongue-in-cheek and wasn’t meant to be taken literally.
Even worse, heaven is a never ending church service. An eternity of God fellation, as if that isn’t torture as well.
Satan just wants all the cool people for his ethernal sex orgy in hell.
I’m pretty sure it’s still worth it, even if your ifs are true
Hail Satan!
Well if your ifs are true heaven would be a pretty empty place. So might as well be in hell where almost all the people are.
