Poll question: What will you do if, after you die, you learn God is a right-wing bigot?
Sorry for using the male pronouns in the choices, but I mean them as gender neutral.

1. Stick to your guns.
Then if it's not a test, and it's for real, tell him to get f*cked, and continue on your way to hell.

2. If that happens
If that happens, I'll know I'm in hell. And it's probably frozen over, too.

3. Demand that he convice me RW talking points
are the correct interpretation of Him.

If I'm still not conviced after that, I'd demand to be sent to Hell.

5. Non Sequiter

If God is a RW bigot, no DU member will be going to see him after they die.

6. Other: Kick his ass.
Little chance I'd wind up getting into Heaven at that point anyway. Might as well fulfill a lifelong fantasy.

8. Other:
After you die, isn't it a little late?

I guess you'd just have to suck it up and take it. Whatever it is.

25. Depends of what the afterlife REALLY is like.
Kinda hard to know that, don't you agree?

31. My answer assumed we
found out that God was a "RW bigot" as the OP stated.

AS for you question, well, I think I know, but I acknowledge that there is some disagreement about it.

11. God of the Bible IS a right-wing bigot.
Think about it.

He picked one particular 'race' out of humanity as his 'favorite' who he apparently cares for more than any other.

He's totally right-wing in his attitudes towards sex (gay is bad, sex before marriage is bad, masturbation is bad, menstruation is bad, etc).

Adultresses can be stoned to death, but men can have as many wives as they want, and concubines as well.

He's ok with slavery.

He demands everyone spend an entire day every week worshipping him.

12. I'd ask him if he could create a rock so big that he couldn't lift it...
While he was trying to figure that one out, I'd slip past him and into Heaven!

Then, I'd start looking for a job...

18. I can't tell whether you're being serious or facetious
In any case, I considered it a hypothetical question since I don't believe the wingers are correct in their view of the afterlife or higher power.

Edited on Fri Jun-03-05 03:09 PM by aneerkoinos
I allready know that Yahwe/Yaldabaoth/Demiurge/Creator, whom the fundies worship, is a right-wing bigot rapist, at least according to the Gnostic mythology.

So I would just tell Him to bugger of and seek forgiveness.

19. MAJOR party at my new condo in HELL! Everyone's invited! (BYOB)
Edited on Fri Jun-03-05 03:26 PM by dicksteele
Hey, if G*D is REALLY in agreement with Dobson and Phelps, then imagine all the folks who will be in HELL with me:

Ghandi

Mother Theresa

Muhammed (I am TOTALLY gonna corner that guy for a Q&A!)

Buddha

All the democrats who ever lived (we might need to take the party out on my lawn for room)

Everyone who has ever appeared on US currency (I hear Franklin was a hearty-partying wild man!)

All the Union members who ever lived

ALL the BROWN people who ever lived (definitely gonna need to use the lawn; should probably invite my neigbors just to avoid complaints)

Bill Clinton (we can pose him for funny photos after he passes out)

Jimmy Carter (he can help me rebuild after the party)

And I'm gonna need some REBUILDING, because
ALL THE WOMEN WHO EVER LIVED are gonna be there!
(Cuz the Fascimentalists tell me that WOMEN aren't quite PEOPLE, y'know.)

And, If I'm lucky, maybe we'll get a "swing by" visit from JESUS!
As a long-haired, rabble-rousing, "disturber-of-the-peace", you know he's gotta be SOMEWHERE in the Fundie's idea of Hell!

But I bet he's pretty busy, so I'll understand if he can't make it.

28. Find a way to obliterate my soul...
so I don't have to put up with his bullshit. Anyway, I'm an atheist, so it's not like it's going to matter. As in "On a Pale Horse" by Piers Anthony, my soul is just going to disintegrate when I die (if I even have one).

32. "What does God need with a starship?"--Kirk
Meaning, if one is not a Trekkie, that this rightist is a bloody imposter. Yahweh is not an amoral and vindictive Greek deity; He is the God Who watches over the widows and the orphans, and extols love and mercy.
