Christians claim that their religion is open to all, so long as you're not gay or anything else they object to. While some of them claim that they're not here to judge, some of them are and bring considerable harm to society at large as has been clearly shown recently. Worse yet, they expect to "save" people by converting them to their ways and expect them to live up to a "moral code" that not everyone is prepared to live up to.
Who hasn't seen one of those offensive cartoon books with their messages of eternal damnation for people who don't convert? Who hasn't had a book thrust in their face with the threat "you will burn in hell, sinner" just because they act, dress, or have a different sexual orientation than a "Christian"?
I say it's time to do something about it.
Christians are the worst sort of intolerant people. They don't want us to have same-sex parters. Some of their churches won't let women preach because they claim they're not allowed. And some of them think that men should be the head of the household--just because their book tells them to do so! And what proof do they offer that their book is telling the truth? Faith! They sit in churches in pews and classrooms reading their books, scouring them with more things to skewer the "unfaithful" with.
Friends, it's time to put a stop to it.
If they can't learn to be tolerant of our beliefs because their "faith" stands in the way, then they, friends, stand in our way. They want to buy space on billboards to put their signs up. Can we take legal action? Maybe in some countries, but not in the U.S., not without a good lawyer. We can remove the signs that say "In God We Trust", "Jesus Loves You," and whatnot from public property, but not private property, not legally. We just have to put up with such intolerant behavior.
Or do we?
Dealing With Objects of Hate
Friends, I'm sure you're familiar with such tools as spraycans and pickaxes. Has someone placed a condemning image on a billboard? Climb up onto the billboard and spraypaint it. There's no reason you should put up with such ignorant intolerance. Has a church placed an offending message on their sign? If you've ever worked at a Taco Bell, you know how to change the lettering! Put up a more appropriate, inoffensive message ("Your God Is Dead" is a good example.) Has someone put something into stone on private property? Smash it! We must smash such messages of hate!
Dealing With The Christians
I propose that groups of people be formed to help stamp out messages of ignorance and hate. Depending on where you live, this may be perfectly legal and may be your only recourse in stamping out the problem. If people are handing out new testaments, steal them, by force if necessary. If people are trying to spread their message door to door, throw jackrocks in their path. If they want to, say, stage a civilized protest in front of an abortion clinic, meet their prejudice with extreme prejudice. You know what I mean.
So there you have it. If we take action now, we can stamp out Christian intolerance in our lifetime.
