I saw a bumper sticker on another car today, and was reminded of how absolutely enraging I find it. Usually, I'm a fan of pasting crap onto your car. People have this creepy mental image of a car being some precious shrine that must never be dececrated, and not just a method of transportation. I'm under no such delusion, so I get great joy from sticking crap to my bumper and watching people read it at traffic lights. But this is aside from the point. The point is the sticker I saw today, and the religious idiocy surrounding it.
The sticker read "Next time you think you're perfect, try walking on water"
Now, let's disregard for a moment the blantantly smug, holier than thou, feel a need to take you down a notch, and look! I'm religious too attitude that the statement made. Let's look at it from a strictly religious standpoint.
What the FUCK is wrong with this person;s head? Jesus wasn't perfect. He was a human. A mortal, flawed human, just like the rest of us. That was the entire POINT. His flaws were the entire significace of Jehova (god is a pathetic name for a deity) having a human son! By calling Jesus perfect just because, OMG, it's Jesus, you are completely disregarding any of the lessons taught, not to mention outright stories talking about his flaws (the story people are most familiar with is when he was taken to a fit of rage when he saw all the merchants peddling wares in the temple, so he flipped over all the tables, smashed up their goods, had a screaming fit, and even chased a few with a whip. Yeah. So fucking perfect) And you know what, he probably fucking had pimples too. Yeah, that's right. He was probably walking about, teaching the gospel with a greaaat big zit, right there by his temple, at the edge of the hairline. And you want to know why? Because he was born a human. Nyeh nyeh.
This person was so busy beating themselves off to the thought of how delightfully clever and righteous they are that they completely forgot about the principles of their own religion. Yeah. You look really clever now. I hope you get cancer.
