    Oh man, reminds me about the priest of my school (catholic school). In 7th grade he was telling me that I needed to believe in a religion, so I asked him which of the thousands of religions have existed through history. He said that I needed to believe in his religion because, historically, it has been the most relevant. And I was just shocked… That’s was the dumbest shit I had heard. I told him that wasn’t enough for me to believe in something that is going to send me to hell for eternity if I make a human mistake and forget to confess.

      apparently reality is determined by popularity contests. It’s like highschool all over again.

        Yup, they are also pretty bad with logic. I told him that faith with no evidence is senseless, and that Jesus asking for people to believe in him with no proof was just irrational.He proceeded to explain what faith is. Then I told him I was Jesus Christ and he should do as I say. He laughed and said that I needed to prove that to him for him to believe me… It’s like they don’t even hear themselves.
