Christians are both cruel and stupid. One Sunday, years ago, the pastor was giving a sermon about sin or whatever and shared a homily from his life. I can't remember the story, but it involved finding his elementary school age son hiding in his room after the pastor beat him for some reason. The child was rolled up in a ball in the corner of the room crying, while telling himself that he was going to be all right. The pastor yelled at him. He laughed at the lectern and tied this back into how we are all disobedient in the eyes of God or something stupid like that. Naturally, the child is a homeless addict now but he of course deserves it for abandoning his father. The pastor says that his children hate him because he's such a holy man that they are the devils main targets. Such a cruel and stupid man, I'm amazed that anyone gives him the time of day. Of all the hundreds of people I've ever met, he is the only one that I can feel confident in labeling evil.

(This is also the man that convinced my grand father to commit a kidnapping. Goddamnit, rural americans are the stupidest people on the planet. They trust those who want to hurt them, and distrust people who could actually help them)

The pastor from my old church is going to die of cancer this week, and all I have to say is
>Good riddance
He was the only person I've ever met I consider legitimately evil, and I've known rapists and Nazis. I'm not going to his funeral, even if I'm invited
