Shitty because christianity teaches that man is intrinsically corrupt, and acknowledging this truth causes atheishits to tantrum and blame God. Notice that this is never framed in such a way to disprove God and justify atheism, but express resentment towards God. Very interesting projection

Shit in what way? That they rape and murder and torture? Humans are but hairless apes, and act accordingly. The plight of the organism is a droll insignificance, suffering and misery are arbitrary seasonings in the inconsequential blip that spans the formation of the first protein, to the death of the last organism.

You could be skinned alive and dumped into a pit of flesh eating maggots and it wouldn't be very important to anyone but you and the maggots. Completely indistinguishable from the thousand instances of microscopic animals dissolving from your skin oils every day.

I came to conclusion that it's moral, and even dutiful, to murder chr*stians. Hear me out:
Here we have this millions-strong cult of people who in their earnest believe in existence of Hell. Think on it. These people believe that there's a transcendent and eternal torture chamber which torments billions of anguishing human souls for 'crimes' as severe as simply not holding a chr*stian belief, sometimes from the lack of logical evidence, or simple ignorance. According to chr*stians, most people will end up in Hell, many of them their close friends and family, and not only they are fine with this organization, they worship and praise the entity behind it. How evil of a person can wake up and function normally in a day-to-day routine with such knowledge firm in their mind?
For this reason, I must conclude that the chr*stian cult and their malevolent G*d-creature and sworm enemies of mankind and must be purged at all costs.
Do your part. Massacre a chr*stian today.

>>14255097
>God can do whatever he wants

False. He gave humanity a power which He cannot possess or express which is the power of choice, to do wrong. His infallibility expressly forbids it.

Which means that either a) we're too idiot brained to actually understand what is right or what is wrong, or b) issues of true, actual morality do not extend nearly as far as we have been told. Or, taking into account our choice, c) an infallible being will be blameless in all ways regardless of any action or inaction taken and fallible beings will always be guilty no matter if the same actions and behaviors of the divine are mimicked.

We are shit and therefore all we touch becomes smeared with feces, and there will never be anything else to it. Just as God could come down, repeat our choices verbatim and be worthy of eternal worship for it.

This kind of thinking is why society is so feminized today. Pain is the greatest thing there is, overcoming is freedom, hardship is actualization.

How evil do you have to be to not acknowledge that certain people deserve eternal torment?

Any way, Christian's today, especially Protestants, totally agree with you and believe that "every body will be saved" or something ridiculous like that.

>and not only they are fine with this
This is totally false. Christians try, or at least trued their hardest to save other people, that is why Missionaries exist.
