What is the most insane thing a religious wingnut has said to you ?

I think it was something about paying for my sins in the rapture that had been predicted for 9 days later. But you know, maybe he was right. If hell can be characterised as a small room with demonic parents guarding the exit.

 

With regards to gay people, a "friend" of mine said that homosexuality should still be considered a mental illness. -__-

 

Let's see: Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is actually a spellbook for Wiccans, that huge tsunami in Japan happened because they worship "false gods", sin makes people gay, sex should only be used to make babies, people who aren't Christians only think they're having fun but really aren't, gays are polyamorous because being gay can't satisfy them like being straight can, anyone who drinks at all is an alcoholic, the earth is only a few thousand years old, science is a lie that Satan feeds people with false evidence to keep people from believing in God.... There are so many.

 

The lady I described in thread under Family and Friends called Opinion on Living Arrangement is a born-again Christian and we were talking about various things. When we got to talking about current politics and sexuality, she said "Eew, but it's so unnatural." I thought (to myself) "Having sex with YOU would be unnatural. Maybe that's why your husband doesn't."

 

None yet, but insanity is doing the same thing over expexcting change. None yet, but when they do tell me i will A. Secretly snicker as it is clearly b.s. as to the things they're saying regarding gay people. B. Walk away. C. Tell them to try to be gay for a day, and look through my eyes, but they'll tell me my eyes are full of sin and hate and go back to religious monologue.

Actually, i asked my friend if gays' will be in heaven if they believe in god, he said maybe. (P.s. he doesn't know im gay)

Just listen to that. It had basically every crazy claim that religion makes.

 

It was a black guy from Senegal and *translated from French* had said that I could "pray hard enough" and I would be saved from being gay.

My rebuttal was "ok, so you can just pray hard enough to make yourself a white person?" and he said "of course" smh. ....God loves as I am, not as someone else

 

:roflmao:

Oh my fuck, that's hilarious. My apologies if it wasn't meant to be.

 

Why would you want to be "saved" from being so awesome?

 

Well, I see how it could be viewed that way, though I was thinking she was ridiculous! She is very naive about basic human behavior. One of the things she is also clueless about is human attraction. Even with straight males and females, she thinks you can just put two people together and it's going to work. She attempts to do a lot of matchmaking with people. Over the last few years, I've chosen to keep my distance from her.

 

EXACTLY! He didn't want to be "saved" from being black, so why should I be "saved"? -_-

 

That reminds me of something else I heard growing up in church: One person told me that when Cain killed Abel, you know how he was "marked"? Well, someone told me that the mark he got was being black. Yeah, I've heard some pretty weird stuff.

 

That's so freaking crazy! Explain that to Al Sharpton

 

I'm starting to come to the realization that most things these religious people say doesn't make much sense but this my friend by far takes the cake...

 

I had a guy tell me that he was being discriminated against for his religion because he is not allowed to discriminate against gays at work. Of course I also get the usual stuff like the Earth is 6000 years old and dinosaurs didn't exist but this caught me off guard.

 

I got something similar to that. It was my mom's church. they actually laid hands on me and tried to cast out the homosexual demon. It must have only half worked.:lol::icon_wink:badgrin:

I also heard that Ham, Noah's son, was cursed to be black because he saw his dad drunk and naked but did nothing to cover him
