According to many Evangelicals, we are living in the last days. We should expect Jesus to return to planet earth at any moment to rapture away the people with advanced reservations, leaving behind billions of Buddhists, Muslims, Catholics, Hindus, Atheists, Agnostics, and Pagans, along with every other non-Christian. Then God will unwrap his Dexter-like tools of torture and homicide, slaughtering everyone who doesn\u2019t remember the date, time, and place where Jesus saved them. Billions of people will die for no other reason than having the wrong religion or being born in the wrong country. Worse yet, when God is done killing everyone, he is going to resurrect them back to life, judge them, and toss their sorry asses in the Lake of Fire. God is so bent on making non-Christians pay for all the shit that went down over the past four or so thousand years, that he plans to give the people in the Lake of Fire new bodies that will withstand being roasted for eternity. Ain\u2019t God awesome?<\/p>\n

Tell me, dear Christians, why would anyone ever want to worship such a moral monster? Out of fear? Is that the best the Schmidts of the world have to offer \u2014 fear God, get saved, or he is going to roast you (or drown you)? No thanks. Even if such a God exists \u2014 and he doesn\u2019t \u2014 who would want to worship him? Is such a deity worthy of my love and devotion?<\/p>\n

YAY! You’ve got to be out of your mind to believe the Bible is inerrant and to believe that Revelation<\/i> is future history, and it requires seriously deformed character to worship the incandescent sociopath portrayed in the Inerrant Bible. There is something seriously wrong<\/i> with the devout. At the end of the day it really is as simple as that — and in view of the harm they are doing to the country, it is past time to stop being polite about it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
