People are so goddamn retarded in this country. Someone tried to tell me they're trying to take god out of everything and acted as if "in god we trust" has been on US currency since forever. I point out her 3 divorces and 4 marraiges and get told to cite an exact quote of the bible for that. And if it isn't that I get told "she wasn't Christian then" like that makes it a-ok for her to get married 4 times and cheat. Then someone pulls the "this country was founded on christian values" bs
They're all people that should receive the Darwin award
So today I started my internship at that guitar store. At some point this older dude came in and was dickin around on some acoustic 12-string and then he starts playing Into The Void. I go up to him and am like fuck yea dude did you hear they're coming to SJ in February? And we start talkin and shit. He then asks if I know the band Sleep and I'm like yeah of course. He's like "cool yeah I used to play in a band with Matt Pike" and I'm like or really? what band?, thinking it might have been some pre-Sleep. Dude founded High on Fire with Matt. Apparently they started jamming but pretty early on he decided to quit cuz he had a kid or something. He never recorded with the band but he's credited for writing some riffs on Blood From Zion. He then started telling me about a bunch of old metal bands from San Jose that have long been forgotten. Was not expecting that today.
Any time someone tells me it was founded on Christian principles I just ask them to prove it for me.
They never can.
It's not that hard, the signs are just subtle. This country is so steeped in Christian values that you don't even notice it. Don't kill, don't steal, help the poor, feed the sick, help your neighbor... These are all inherited from Christianity. Every political leader we have ever had has grown up under the same basic values, the laws the wrote were shaped that way as well. There is no real religious diversity with any of the presidents. All Christians.
Places like India give 0 fucks. Sick? Hungy? Your problem. You did something to deserve it. Fuck equality, enjoy your Karma.
Yup, but that misses the point by a mile. Its freedom OF, not freedom FROM religion. You've been shaped by some Christian values even if you think of yourself as an atheist.
Practicing Christian or not doesn't change the fact that you have been influenced and shaped as a person by Christian ideals that don't exist in other places of the world dominated by other religions. An atheist from India, one from America, and one from Africa are all going to be very, very different people, even though all are free of religion. The way they treat women, for example, will be fundamentally different, due to the religious values that surrounded them and how it shaped them. They were raised to put different values on charity, compassion, and even life itself.
Because she was ordered by the courts of the land to do her job as the law states. This includes issuing gay couples marriage licenses. She still refused anyway. She was an elected official so this is the result. If anyone else refused to do their job requirements and claimed it was because of their religious beliefs they'd be fired or highly encouraged to quit.
Now I see a bunch of idiots crying religion is under attack in this county. Take that bible and go fuck yourself with it. Take "letting the holy spirit in" to a whole different level
