Pie chart of Conservative Christian Internet Posts

1. Exactly

They like to "claim" they are Christian without ever doing anything that Christ spoke of and encouraged. All the glory, none of the Christian-like love, caring and sacrifice.

[treestar]

2. The louder a person is about their Christianity

Quite often that goes along with not following the tenets of Jesus in inverse proportion.

3. I have never seen such un-Christian people as these "Christian conservatives".

The fact that they defy and defile their supposed savior's message and teachings with such regularity and impunity calls into question whether they really believe in him at all. Or do they worship a phony made-up "Right-wing Warrior Jesus" who hates blacks and gays, loves war, and wants the rich to rape the poor? That would be tantamount to worshiping themselves. Aha, now we're getting somewhere!

15. You said it! My area is infested with those types.

It's like they knowingly take full advantage of the "faith alone" metric as the detirmining factor of how much of a "good christian" one is. This allows them to be selfish, vile, nasty SOBs to others while still being inherently virtuous without guilt - And - without a even a hint of irony! Point out the disconnect and they trot out the same thing: About how humans are basically flawed anyway blah blah blah. Yeah they're flawed alright: They're royally fucked up.

4. I'd say inverse square

5. Sorry, but you left out the larget block, by far...

"here's a devotional reading or sermon I was sent. I have no idea what it means or why its important, but it has a lot of Bible quotes, so I'm going to repost it without any comment or opinion."

[nxylas]

6. Actually, I find the Bible quotes are optional

Very often, a picture of a rainbow and/or dove and a load of quasi-inspirational guff written in a script font will suffice, as long as the words "God", "Lord" or "Jesus" are in there somewhere.

10. It's totally true...

I'm actually amazed by how little play the Bible actually gets. It would warrant another pie chart for "Bible quotes used by 'conservative' 'Christians' ", where about 55% would be John 3:16, 40% would be Romans 1:26-27, and 5% would be the whole rest of the Bible combined.

14. What, no 1 timothy 6:10 ?!?

Surely you jest !

[beerandjesus]

16. Ha! That's right, and forget about anything from the book of Matthew...

...especially all that liberal crazy talk in chapters 5-6!

[dipsydoodle]

7. I like pie

[RitchieRich]

8. Don't Bogart the Pie! , man

[dipsydoodle]

9. off topic - memories of another day.

My wife died 23 years ago and that's what she called me most of the time - "Ritchie Rich"

[IdaBriggs]

13. So sorry for your loss.

Glad thinking of her made you smile. That speaks volumes about the both of you.

Thank you for sharing.

[RitchieRich]

19. Glad to meet you Dickie!

I actually got the nickname from my late brother, we used to watch RitchieRich on Saturday mornings.
Keep the good memories alive!

11. Keep gummint out of my health care

That would be a common whine among the more senior dimwits.

[Javaman]

12. I think a Vin Diagram would work better...

most right wing xians fall into many of those categories.

And then have a single bubble way apart from it that reads, "gives to the poor".

[FSogol]

17. Is a Vin Diagram, a Venn Diagram made by Vin Diesel?

[Javaman]

18. Yeah and it should have another bubble for Triple X. ;) LOL

spelling is not my strong suit.

Cheers!
