    People aren’t laughing at you because you’re Christian in Texas you morons, they’re laughing at you because you think you’re being persecuted for your religion when you live somewhere where 80 percent of the population is Christian.

        Once I saw this guy on a bridge about to jump. I said, “Don’t do it!” He said, “Nobody loves me.” I said, “God loves you. Do you believe in God?” He said, “Yes.” I said, “Are you a Christian or a Jew?” He said, “A Christian.” I said, “Me, too! Protestant or Catholic?” He said, “Protestant.” I said, “Me, too! What franchise?” He said, “Baptist.” I said, “Me, too! Northern Baptist or Southern Baptist?” He said, “Northern Baptist.” I said, “Me, too! Northern Conservative Baptist or Northern Liberal Baptist?” He said, “Northern Conservative Baptist.” I said, “Me, too! Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region, or Northern Conservative Baptist Eastern Region?” He said, “Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region.” I said, “Me, too! Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1879, or Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1912?” He said, “Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1912.” I said, “Die, heretic!” And I pushed him over.

    not to be the hater but this is basically the vibe of c/atheism and other types. the book may vary but there is no shortage of this category of behavior lol.

      I mean, if a Christian or other religious person goes into an atheist community and is shocked to find their belief being ridiculed there, I don’t know what to tell them

        i don’t disagree. the post title proposes that the laughing-at doesn’t happen at all. which is demonstrably false. that’s all im pointing out yknow :)

      But do they make fun of people just reading the Bible?

      I consume a lot of atheist entertainment, and the ridicule is always directed to some harmful action being perpetrated by a religious nut. I’ve never heard them make fun of someone for just reading the Bible. A couple of the atheist podcasts have read through the whole Bible themselves.

    The most unrealistic part of this is a conservative christian actually reading the bible. Unless he is just using it as a prop which is on form with these types.
