[in reaction to Rick Warren making this statement: ”I don’t care whether you’re Baptist, Buddhist, Mormon, Methodist, Jewish, Muslim, or no religion at all. Jesus Christ still loves you. You still matter to God.”]

Rick Warren makes me want to puke.

Ironically, the feeling is mutual.
Ugh, did I just say that to a fundy?
Christ worked the cross, eh?
"Hey centurion dudes, I'm a carpenter. Didja know that if you blunt the tips of your nails, you won't split the wood?"
For God so loved the world, and all that stuff. Then again, I get the feeling that if you people ever read your Bible, you'd consider Jesus to be unacceptably liberal.
Rick Warren is a douche, but this... this is pretty insulting, and uncalled for.
BTW, R.W. is not "all-inclusive" -- he has banned gays (and, I believe, Jews) from his "church". (If I'm wrong, please, let me know.)

All the guy said was that Jesus loves everyone, no matter what. There's no indication on his part that Jesus won't still condemn people to eternal suffering for doubting his infinite love.
Wait, I thought Jesus loved everyone so much that he willingly died* to save us? Are you telling me he sacrificed himself for us, but doesn't really give a fuck? Do you guys really have to make your gods even lamer than canon** demands?

1. Was Jesus's death on the cross due to work-related injuries?
2. If not, has he at least been paid for his 1900+ years of overtime?
Jesus Christ, I think you have grounds for a lawsuit.

"Rick Warren makes me want to puke."
This is the first time I've ever agreed with a Rapture Retard.
ditto. it's an unnerving feeling, though :-/
There is no God. I'm just glad some RRs are pissed off.
Feels good, especially when it's because of one of their own.

Want some popcorn while we watch? *offers you some*
Hands off the spicy pickles, though. I've looked all over town for those, and they're mine!
When I was a conservative christian, I hated Rick Warren. Now, as a liberal agnostic, and seeing something like this, gives me a tiny, tiny, bit of respect for him. And since he's hated by the nutjobs at RR, that adds on to the little bit of respect. I still don't like him, because he's still a predominantly conservative christian, but the fact that he proclaims god's love for all people, that's honorable, I think.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
