Xians can be such idiots sometimes |
|
I had someone tell me that I personified what was wrong with the Democratic party by my disrespectful attitude toward Xians. What was so disrespectful, you ask? My use of the terms Xians and Xianity.
Two thoughts come to mind over this: 1) Just how freaking ignorant is this individual? and 2) Just exactly how far are we going to be expected to go in sucking up to these people who think they are superior to pretty much everybody else?

6. Responses to your questions: |

1- Completely. Because belief = negation of knowledge. 2- The only limit is when you see the light. Means to that end are completely indifferent. Can go up to torture and murder id need be.
