Daily Atheist Devotional #194 (Atheist Discrimination Edition)

She told me that my brother, who died in his sleep when he was 13 years old went straight to hell because my mom never got him baptised, and that my mom, when she died three years ago, joined him.

She is so NOT an example of "the believers". She does NOT understand the deity she purports to believe. If SHE is an example of a believer, label me atheist. Because I'd rather believe in NO god than believe in a god as petty and small minded as the one she promotes.

I'm so sorry someone said those things to you.

Even a stranger on the internet.

Even an apparently stupid one.

I hope that whatever pain it caused you has been replaced by good memories of your loved ones. I wish you peace and I am so sorry for your loss.

And on that yes the future of the world depends.

Thank you Ann... *****ies words are awful, but she personally has no power to hurt me. I'm not an atheist, but I am very firmly committed to the true exercise of freedom of religion, and *****ie here would have ALL religions other than the twisted travesty of a religion that inhabits her brain eliminated. She gives ANY Christian a bad name. I'm here to refute that perception, because there HAS to be an example of a TRUE believer here. Terry does an awesome job of course. And so do a lot of other people who GET it, but I poke my head in from time to time.

Thank you very much for your kind words. IT is now three years since I lost my mom and the sharpest edge of grief is starting to fade.

Lady Lithia   I hate seeing this all brought up again because it is a painful and ignorant statement she made that has NO truth to it.  I agree I would also bot ever accept a God that would condemn someone to a hellish existence just because someone was not Baptized.  *****ie likes to act like she knows God and can speak for HIm.  She doesn't know Jack****!  She is a small minded petty person that enjoys hurting others.  She just uses God to try to do so.  If she continues in her abuse of Gods love she will be the one getting turned away.

Terry you continue to be one of the BEST. I really appreciate it. In a way, it was somewhat cathartic because I just passed the third anniversary of mum's death, and for the first time really feel the solace that comes with time. There will always be emptiness, but like an old wound, it doesn't hurt with quite the stinging sharpness it used to.... and this thread helped me to realize the peace that my own heart has come to. Of course this week has been an emotional one for me. Just hit the 140's for the first time since I was 14 years old.... Dad's here visiting (and almost died coming to visit but was magically saved, even though he flipped his car)..... and it's just been a strange week, but I'm glad to SEE the easing of the pain that only came through taking a peek at the old injury. My friends here whether atheist or religious give me strength. The negative influences only serve to make me glad for the positive ones that surround my life.

You HAVE had a rough week.  Hugs for you... It has been 3 years for me since dad died and the pain is much softer now.  I still miss him and sometimes I will get a sharp pain, but mainly I enjoy the memories and can share a laugh with Mom over the good times we had.  I think where ever Dad is it is a better place and I will see him again.   Please try to ignore the hate spewed by the ***** on here that thinks her way is the only way.  You are loved and treasured.

My guess is that you'll go to Hell for adding to someone's already visible pain. That's my ******g guess right there, Little Miss Holier Than Thou.

When you type, Jesus WEEPS. He ******g CRIES, becuase you are twisting his message of peace and kindness, because you are *******izing the idea that we as humans are here to help alieviate one another's suffering.

Not doing that? Purposefully hurting someone who is already in pain? Damns you to Hell. I don't give a tin **** how many times you get born, Cupcake.

Telling someone the truth sometimes hurts but hopefully they use it as a learning experience and grow from it.  Using the type of language you use and they type of humor you use is what shows me that you are not a Christian. I do not have to judge you your actions do that for you.

These people on here may laugh at your little jokes but they will not be standing beside you at your judgment day.  think about that......maybe these little comments you make for kicks and giggles gets you off but you will be held accountable for every action at your judgment if you are not SAVED.
