To be completely honest, I harbor a lot of resentment for Christians. I don’t mind Jews and Muslims in America, though. (I even prefer them, really) It’s not even about personal experiences. It’s about so many things, the religion’s history, the fallacies of their beliefs, corrupt and even criminal acts done by Christians, even the actions of their god in the bible. However, what I think I hate the most is the utter hypocrisy of Christians.
Yesterday, I was chilling with a friend in town who lives alone. He’s a nice guy, but is going through therapy for drug use. He lives in a tiny, not so well kept apartment paid for and supported by his parents. He has no job, but smokes, drinks, and still uses recreational legal drugs. He gets alot of attention from girls and wants to be a guitar player. He’s genuine but extremely immature and air headed. However. he tried forcing his beliefs onto me, saying “If you want to attract success, you need to allow Christ in.” I swear, I never had seen him do this before. I left completely enraged.
His hypocrisy was multilayered. For one, he said he was forcing it on me out of love. In actuality it was a need to control. Second, he spoke about “God’s plan” and “Everything happens for a reason.” Even Theologically, that only means God makes people suffer just so he can be praised when he “saves” them. Third, the bible states that drunkeness is a sin, and one would be stoned for it. He smokes, drinks, does drugs, and commits “adultery”. (That’s only bad in the context of the bible I mean) While I do not smoke, do drugs, or drink and am (Not by choice) a virgin. I’d be a better Christian than he is. Forth and final, he continuously said “Be open minded” and yet he derailed all other gods and non-abrahamic religions, included (but not surprisingly) satanism. Fifth and final, he couldn’t see how he looked. This drunkard, drugged up, nicotine addicted bum with no job, no school, supported by his parents forcing Christ on to me. It’s really a combination of frightening because he looks so crazy and hilarious because of how cliche it is. All he had I for me to envy was good looks and attention from girls, albeit the crazy ones who themselves have lots of issues. In fact one was clearly stalking him.
Rant aside, I believe in treating ALL Christians as they treat those who are different from the norm of white light faiths. I’m not saying discriminate absolutely or commit acts of violence against them. I am, however, saying that when one shows their true colors like that, DO NOT TAKE SHIT! Do not be polite. Do not try and be nice. Do not be open minded. Call them out on their bull shit. Be outraged. Cause a scene if it’s appropriate. If not, than be subtle. Catch their name and curse them. However, I work at a grocery store so most of my customers are Christian. Though this is your shop, your lecture, your domain. I don’t know if you follow satanism, but one of the rules of the earth clearly states anyone who insults you in your domain (especially in a manner such as this) should be treated cruelly. You should have demanded they leave the moment they made their intentions known and threatened to call the police if they didn’t submit. You should’ve asked for both their names, dug up whatever available info you could on them, then cursed them. Even if you felt you could handle them, they may prey upon someone who couldn’t, and the best defense can sometimes be an offense.
WE DON’T OWE CHRISTIANS ANYTHING. IT’S TIME WE STOP PRETENDING WE DO. IF A CHRISTIAN DISCRIMINATES AGAINST ANYONE (It doesn’t have to be one of us) WE DISCRIMINATE AGAINST THEM.
