2. Isn't Easter some kind of voodoo?

zombies rising from death and such?

[mzmolly]

10. Well... when you put it that way.

22. snort

you got me with that response

:D

[crikkett]

3. The Haitians will prevail. n/t

[southernyankeebelle]

4. That is exactly why I don't want my tax dollars going to churchs to help with the

poor. At least I don't ever remembering the catholic church doing that. They helped the poor with food shelter and finding jobs. Since they have joined with the evangelicals they have become more like them. Don't tell me they don't pressure people into joining because they do. I don't think the real god would appreciate this way of doing things.

5. Was it because the Hatians refused to worship the jewish Zombie the evangelicals

make wishes in the air to?

[Arugula Latte]

27. Oh, come on, a Jewish zombie born of a virgin makes perfect sense!

6. I have no admiration for either religious sect. Humans thrive on finding divisions, however.

It's part of our tribal hardwiring.

So much for Easter.

19. Vodouisants in Haiti don't throw rocks at Protestants.

And it's very open minded and tolerant of other religions.

[roguevalley]

24. some people hate religion so much they don't care. you are calling

into the wind.

[rasputin1952]

7. To deny the hungry, food; the sick, care; the naked, clothes...

is the antithesis of Christianity, or any other religion.

You give to those in need, no questions asked, no strings attached. "What you do unto the least of them, you do unto me". I guess this group missed that part.

FWIW, this is not necessarily a condemnation of religion, but of humanity.

I am ashamed to call myself a part of the same species...:(

[old mark]

8. Hey - they are good christians, which means they are free to hate, hurt, lie and kill

for jesus' love...amen.

[roguevalley]

25. no they aren't. they are neither good nor christian.

[name not needed]

9. That's an odd interpretation of "love thy neighbor"

[hootinholler]

11. Zombie god's followers throwing rocks at voudou ceremony

Hmmmm. I can't quite figure out how many levels this is wrong on.

[Kablooie]

12. Taliban for Christ

[stranger81]

13. 'Cause that's what Jesus would do, stone people.

That's definitely what I took from the story about Mary Magdelene.

These people are idiots and basically shouldn't be allowed out of the house unsupervised.

[Canuckistanian]

14. These people are worse than the Phelps crowd

Throwing rocks at a funeral gathering? Denying aid to sick and hungry people?

All because these "Christians" consider Voudu "witchcraft"?

Haiti should revoke their visas and kick them out.

[malaise]

15. Why don't they get the hell out of Haiti

and leave Caribbean people in peace

[scarletwoman]

16. +1,000!

Fuck evangelical missionaries. They are the pus in the carbuncle on the ass of humanity.

[awoke_in_2003]

17. These are not true scotsmen...

i mean christians :)

[sakabatou]

18. What would Jesus say?

[muriel_volestrangler]

20. It was posted at the time it happened

21. Unbelievable, there are no words.

[jgraz]

23. Can we just get to the fucking rapture already?

That would really clean up the neighborhood.

[roguevalley]

26. rapture isn't biblical. its a dream a little girl had about 1834 that was

turned into this abomination. that's all it is.

[jgraz]

28. So... it's exactly as true as the rest of the bullshit.

Works for me.

[Tsiyu]

29. Textbook colonizing

Step 1. Force the natives to worship, dress, speak, work and pay as you say.

(Remember: You are morally superior; they are mere savages.)


Step 2. Starve out or murder those who don't comply.

Do not spare the elderly, women or babies.


Step 3. When they do finally submit: take all their earthly possessions anyway.

(You deserve it - for all that hard work colonizing and stuff.)
