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.

I hope you are not implying that somehow the boy committed suicide because his mother rejected his sexuality. That's not how suicide works.

It is perfectly normal for parents, lovers and other close family to blame themselves after a suicide. But the truth is that suicide comes from brain malfunction. It does not have a rational cause even in the cases where it may superficially look like it.

I have had friends that ended their own lives. It has not occurred to me to blame their family or friends or their religion or their sexuality. They died from a tragic illness, just like cancer or asthma.
