Reply to comment by ImOldGettOffMyLawn in Community members address 'After School Satan Club' at Saucon Valley school board meeting by Wuz314159

Unfortunately , a huge proportion of your religion does. See all of history as an example. You can also see the last 6 years in the US as a great example. It’s pretty hard to defend right wing Christians right now so you might not want to go down that path.

You 1. Do not know that at all and 2. You have no way of quantifying that. You're only taking in to account the loud ones you hear (who we ALL can't stand) that fit your bias against either religion as a whole or Christianity in specific. Please don't try to argue otherwise, and please spare me your "unfortunately" 's

Such a stupid comment and has nothing to do with what I said at all. Honestly though; not surprised.

The crusades have nothing to do with forcing Christianity as the only religion?

Uh, okay then! See you around

The sad thing about the guy who commented is that they’ll take this as “persecution” and double down on their delusions. It’s in win in their book because to them, we’re just lost souls who are floating through life, destined to burn for all of eternity and us pointing out things they disagree with, is proof to them that they’re doing gods work.

The really sad thing is how they don’t understand basic history and refuse to acknowledge reality. It’s impossible arguing facts with a Christian in the same way that you can’t argue facts with an idiot. They don’t understand fact from fiction and would rather live in a fantasy than work with actual truth.

Sure when you use weasel wording like "huge proportion" which is subjective and not quantifiable.

​

But I guess you weren't expecting a filthy dirty backwards racist bigot Christian to be intellectual so I forgive you for trying to cop out the easy way.

I do know that and history has shown it for thousands of years… this isn’t a debatable topic. The Christian church has historically stomped out other religions / cultures and continues to do so. I’m sorry that your feelings are hurt by that but your religion literally enslaved and murdered the native people of north and South America just to colonize the region. The crusades saw millions killed in the name of your religion, Christian/Islamic wars have done the same, I can go on for literally the entire history of the religion.

So spare me your fake offense and at least realize the history of the faith you follow. If you want to talk about “modern times” and the “loud ones”. Where have all the “quiet ones” been to reign in the mainstream Christian right? You may not like it, but they are the same group as you. You may not act like them but to the rest of us living in reality, not believing in magic, you’re one of the same.
