The funny thing is my wifes bro feels the same way, but the mother of the child said she MUST have the child baptised. 
I know some of you morons will attack me now, but I don't really care. Baptism, and church are both fucked up things that we must get rid of. Church-marriage is also a joke, "in front of God's eyes you're now man and wife".. bahahaha..
Anyway, off I go to iron my necktie. Gotta look good for God. |
i'm with you. when i was in second grade, a private christian school opened near our home. my parents thought it would be a good way to help me grow up being a good person i guess. i'm not actually sure why they sent me there.
when i got there, i was horrified. i mean really horrified. suddenly i was surrounded by people talking about hearing voices telling them what to do... people telling me all these strange stories about turning water into wine, parting seas, walking into a fire and coming out unharmed etc etc etc. they were telling me that "god" was all powerful and nothing but loving.... after a few weeks,...
the my downfall began as the questions started.
me: "if god loves everyone, why did that baby get killed"
pastor: "because he was called unto gods service. god had a purpose for him and he is with god now"
me: "no, i mean why was the baby slowly burned to death and had to experience such pain. why did god make a baby suffer?"
pastor: "uhmm.... did you finish your homework?... oh! thats a nice shirt young man!... where did you get that shirt"
looking back, it was really comical. i questioned everything and lets be honest here... christianity (and most religions) are long on questions and short on answers. it just wasn't something they were equipped to deal with. every kid there just accepted everything as fact,... its how they were raised. to me, the whole "religion" thing just seemed silly. invisible spirits. angels. god snapping his finger and creating the universe. miracles. denying dinosaurs existed and so on. by the middle of the third grade, i left and went to public school.
