Why religious whackjobs are dangerous nuts and other fun...

[jsbowden]

A friend pointed me at another fine example of just what Christian Love and Tolerance actually means.

It also made me aware of Fundies Say the Darndest Things, which is a nice little slice of humanity at its finest.

I don't care if you're Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, Sikh, Toaist, some flavor of pagan, etc...it doesn't matter...if you're so damned blind in your beliefs that you'd suppress or kill others who don't meet your standards, do the rest of us a favor and go take a long fucking walk off of a short fucking pier with cement shoes on.

We.

Don't.

Need.

YOU.

And us atheists are the 'dangerous' ones. Fuck all of you.

Rephrasing.
The boy was in therapy already, presumably his mother had either initiated this or agreed with it. However, she was in the process of taking him out of that therapy because the therapist encouraged homosexual activity. She wanted a therapist that would encourage celibacy. We don't know however whether she found such a therapist, or whether or not her son was in therapy when he committed suicide.

To withhold therapy from your child is something to be blamed for. To want a conservative therapist when you are a conservative mother living in a conservative country is... normal. You can't really blame people for acting like normal. You can disagree with them, sure, as do I. But you can't expect people to foresee and forestall a suicide when it requires extraordinary measures to do so.
