Minime got the impression that I was saying one faction of Christianity was right and the rest wrong….that Catholics and Orthodox had the “true meaning” and the rest were all wrong about the Eucharist being the real flesh and blood of Jesus. That isn’t what I said at all. As far as I’m concerned every Christian doctrine is as silly and whacko as every other one…. the Eucharist is as stupid as any of the things Minime’s sect believes. There’s no point in discussing with me which of their truths are truthier truths…they’re all bonkers.

Kindness, love, respect, self-sacrifice, humility are NOT exclusive to Christianity and were all alive and well long before Christ or Moses were born. What concerns me are those beliefs and practices which are ONLY to be found among Christians and make Christianity truly unique and one-of-a-kind among all other religions. To hear Christians tell it they invented love and there was no self-sacrifice on earth until Jesus introduced it. That, of course, is bullshit. Not even human sacrifice and cannibalism is new or original with Christianity, but among all modern religions Christianity is the only one to still teach these things and make them the centerpiece of a religion…for if you refuse to eat Jesus you can’t get into Paradise no matter how much you emulate the rest of his teachings…which tells you all you need to know about the kind of people they allow up there.

My interest was in what EFFECT particular teachings, all of them silly, had on children. One can assess the impact of the fairy tale of the Easter Bunny without being accused of believing it. It’s a myth, of course…but SOME people believe it and therefore are INFLUENCED by it and it’s that influence I would contemplate. I’m hardly going to discuss the ACTUAL existence of the Easter Bunny with anyone! Minime believes in what he believes…of course it’s just another fairy tale…but I can discuss the EFFECT his beliefs have on him without being accused of sharing those beliefs or thinking they are REAL….I mean, come ON!

Minime went off on a tangent…which isn’t hard for him to do since he’s hyperactive and nine-tenths of the way to a permanent state of vaginal hysteria. He was actually challenging me on the “truth” of the Eucharist…when I could care less about it’s truth…or falsity. That was never the point. They’re ALL crazy…the pope, Billy Graham, Martin Luther, KenFuck, Minime….all of them fit for the asylum if not prison.

The issue was never, “is Jesus REALLY telling people to eat him”…it was that millions of people are told and BELIEVE this is what he said…and they act accordingly AS IF IT WAS REAL. That’s enough for my purposes. I’m hardly going to argue them out of it…or start my OWN sect that knows “the truth”. I’m also not looking for “real Christians”. I’ve already said there’s something drastically wrong with Christian teaching since it’s produced the most violent and bloody practitioners of any religion the world has ever seen. Clearly I’m not interested in, or on the look-out for a BETTER sect, or interpretation…I said, they are ALL bloody nuts as can be seen by the atrocities they’ve brought with them!!!

There is NO improving any of them…for the simple reason that, even if you removed cannibalism from the menu, they still believe in human sacrifice, they still believe that you can be forgiven YOUR crimes if only you kill someone ELSE for them…they still teach their children to accept the benefits that can ONLY come from the murder of an Innocent… they hang little gold instruments of torture and execution around the necks of their children AND they bathe themselves in human blood AND they hang bleeding cadavers above the altars in their houses of “worship” as if they were butcher shops…remove cannibalism entirely and you STILL have a brutally violent cult. I was merely focusing on one of these disgusting rituals and beliefs. Of COURSE it’s a crock…but it ALL is, not just the call to cannibalism.

Minime wanted to discuss the fine points of truthiness…wanted to show me that only “some” Christians got it wrong. Obviously he believes that cannibalism is a shameful part of Christian ritual….he knows damn well millions of Christians take it literally…and if he didn’t, then the words of Jesus plus the Cardinals and popes plus the millions who BELIEVE in those words, convinced him…which is why he tries so hard to get AWAY from the literal truth of the Words…what’s he arguing with me for? He knows, as I do, this is all a crock of pagan shit. He’s just trying to sell me on another brand of the same faith, HIS brand, which he believes, as do all the others, is the RIGHT one.

How doofus can you be to come around trying to proselytize ME?
