I was looking for a new screensaver for my computer at work. I did a Google Image search using the word Christianity. WOW. I cannot believe how many people hate Jesus and/or Christianity.
We will truly be hated for his name-sake. Can't be long now folks. If he tarries, there may be very few Christians left when he arrives.)
Yep. We are treated worse than pedophiles.

Oh, I know! My neighbor was caught going to church. He was arrested, and branded a Religious Offender, which will now follow him the rest of his life. He had to announce to the whole neighborhood that he's a Religious Offender, and people always hide their kids when he's around.
...err We LOVE Jesus, it's his follower Paul we have a problem with, the most vocal "Christians" happen to worship Paul, fortunately they're in the minority. also for a laugh.
"Jesus, loves the little children, all the children of the world~"

Yeah, because websites criticizing Christianity is totally worse than probable jail time and the ire of the public at large.
But if it makes you feel better, I'd love for that to happen to Christians too, it's just not realistic though.
I've just searched on Google Images for 'Christian Screensaver' and the only non-reverential image on the first ten pages is a pic of Christian Bale.
So, another 'Liar for Jesus'.
"Yep. We are treated worse than pedophiles."
This quote was pretty generic persecution complex until it got up to this line.
Then I lol'd!
I wonder if he even knows what that is, or even how much bearing what people do on the internet has to how they act in real life?
This (or variations of it) is what actually comes up a lot when you do a Google Image search for "Christianity":

Leave it up to the Rapture Retards to translate it into "Waaaah! Everybody hates meee!".
Statements like that, and you wonder why you get made fun of?
And I don't hate Jesus, christianity, or christians. It's whiny little drama queens/kings who cry about how "persecuted" they are just because some people chose to have beliefs different from them that I can't stand.
And knock off this "You hate me, you hate Jesus" crap. You're not Jesus. You're not even close. You're just some little piss-ant with a narrow world view who somehow thinks you're better than everybody else. I don't have to like you, I don't have to respect you, and I certainly don't want to be associated with you.
Fundies have no idea what real percecution is don't they?
I wish RR let people in the explain stuff. Seriously I don't need to say anything. A Christian freind of mine would just go in there and rip their bollocks to shreds.
What is it with so many fundies? No matter the subject, you manage to get a reference to pedophilia in ... or a reference to bestiality or anal rape, or all of the above. Can't you stop thinking about deviant sex for one minute? Sheesh!
I just ran a GIS using "Christianity" and there's nothing offensive or disturbing showing up.
(Eh, unless you consider the image of a man nailed to some wood and tortured to death to be offensive or disturbing.)
Somebody is lying for Jesus.
I've never heard anyone say they hate Jesus. What so many people hate are the bigoted, holier-than-thou hypocrites who claim to follow him, try to put THEIR hate into His mouth, and then shove it down everyone else's throat.
Let me make this clear, and I'm speaking as an avowed atheist and antitheist here:
I do not hate Jesus, although I couldn't care less if he ever existed.
What I do hate is the attitude of too many of his followers who refuse to listen to reason or common sense, who are hateful and bigoted, and/or who try to impose their worldview on me.
Prayer.
Hello mighty Saviour.
Hear the prayers of us reasonably well-off and comfortable people of the West.
Please grant our hearts desire, which is to be with you soon O Lord.
We who try to live by your awesome word do our best to interpret criticism as persecution and hatred.
We, O Heavenly and Earthly Master, do our utmost to uphold your extreme right-wing political views and do constantly tell lies in our quest to propagate these outlandish opinions.
Also God, we are being most diligent in becoming paranoid fruitcakes and are well practiced in the art of circular logic.
Not that we promote sinful behaviour such as thinking, in fact, O Father, we actively discourage the using of our brains.
Also, O Eternal Creator, we do humbly acknowledge the unmitigated tosh spouted by any and many rabid and moronic criers and do wholeheartedly agree with their fanciful outbursts.
Many of us have, O Sweet Deity, crossed the thin line and have entered into the Godly realm of insanity, as a precursor to the full blown madness that we of the 'Flying Folk Of Jesus' some day hope to achieve. We thank you for the courage to partake of this parlous journey. For we know that soon our sect will be hovering.
Our expressions of hatred for those who are homos, liberals, scientists, atheists, sexuals, and people of other cults and religions is tempered by our expressions of support and encouragement for extreme right-wing nutters.
Please Jesus, hurry on down. Come soon.
Amen
No, you are treated way better than pedophiles. So long as you're not pedophiles AND Christians.
Pedophiles are on the bottom rung in prisons, I think. The lowest of the lowest.
Having people making pictures with negative images of Jesus is not bad treatment of YOU.
On the other hand, it's probably your behavior that makes people hate fundie Christians. I think the amount of people sort of liking Jesus is way, way, WAY higher than the amount of people liking, or even tollerating, RaptureRetards. And you only have yourselves to blame.
fap fap fap fap fap... Ahhh, we are so persecuted, yesssssss... fap fap fap fap... The world hates us, and it's gonna be even worse soon, oooooohhhh... fap fap fap fap fap fap...
Seriously, now. This persecution complex of yours got old a long time ago.
Oh, poor you, an oppressed minority vehemently believing in spite all the odds that your god will jetpack down from heaven and take you back up with him. Yes, everyone hates you because we all secretly believe all this rubbish and are angry since we cannot be as perfect as you are.
On a more serious note, if your religion cannot take ridicule then it's not really worth that much, now is it?
..and yet another reason why thinking people avoid fundies. The watering down of strong words such as "pedophiles" and "terrorist" have made anything these fundies say to be suspect automatically.
"Treated worse than pedophiles"?
No
Treated like drama queens who bald faced lie to people to knee-jerk an expected emotional platitude?
absolutely.
Last time i checked, you're the ones who would gladly create the "U.S. Theocracy", banning everything thats in some way don't please you (yes, you. Not your imaginary sky daddy).
Yeah, remember how Christians have been forced to wear a cross at all times so they can be identified, and their places of worship were burned, and then they were rounded up and sent to concentration camps?
Oh, wait. That was somebody else.
"Yep. We are treated worse than pedophiles. "
You mean than you treat paedophiles? They are not really nice people. Neither are you Christians, so it figures. I hope you now feel a little more persecuted... Oh wait, hasn't it always been the Christians who did the persecuting? The Jews, the Gnostics, the Cathars, the Crusades, the Inquisition, The Muslims (in resurgent Spain), then the Genocide of the HOlocaust (Jews again). Funny. I don't recall any Athiest or Agnostic persecutions of Christians. So how can you make such a claim? Paranoid much?
"Yep. We are treated worse than pedophiles."
People critizising your religion isn't worse than being butt raped in jail everyday or having to register as a sex offender yearly.
Most people with these persecution like this probably don't have a damn problem in the real world.
Ok. I think what people hate about Christianity isn't about Jesus Christ Himself or the message he brought to the people, but fundies like you who make a futile attempt at taking the Bible literally and even worse try to force everyone around them to do the same.
"If he tarries, there may be very few Christians left when he arrives.) "
*Shaking my head*
I keep having to repeat myself on this. When will these people like Trance ever actually realize that, in accordance to the Bible, Jesus Christ is to return when no one suspects it and at a suprise to everyone and not when they (the people at RaptureReady) feel that shit is begining to hit the fan?
I turned this into an experiment, actually:
I searched "Christianity" in images & web. I didn't really get anything bad besides one demotivator, repeated 4 times.
I searched "atheism" in images & web. I got Conservapedia, Christian apologetics ministry, etc. for a little less than half of my web results. I got demotivators for my images. They were about 50/50 for/against.
I searched "Islam." Again, I got shit like Conservapedia & Christian ministries for some of my web results. Not much really bad for the images, besides a rude cartoon. That DID say "radical" Islam, though.
I searched "Wicca" & didn't get anything really bad for my images, but got Christian Ministries, Conservapedia, etc., yet again.
Oh, & "Christianity screensaver" got nothing bad whatsoever.
Stop crying persecution.
If he tarries, there may be very few Christians left when he arrives.)
IF he tarries?
Isn't he about a thousand and nine hundred eighty some odd years late now? He's due for a BIIIIIGG! ol' tardy slip if/when he ever shows up...
and *ahem* there are damned few real christians here now, eh? Heh heh heh
Re the original poster:
I don't know about you, but when I'm at work, I'm supposed to do work-related things. One of the standard screen-savers that comes with the system works perfectly fine for my work computer.
I call bullshit on your Google search. I did a normal search (not Image) on the Swedish Google, with the word Christianity in Swedish. You'd think, given that we are much less Christian than the US of A, that there were a ton of hatred towards Jesus there. But no, all the pages were calmly explaining things about Christianity, and most pages were Christian sites.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
