OH MY FUCKING JESUS CHRIST ON A POGO STICK. I HATE THOSE LITTLE CARTOON BOOKLETS. They're more hateful than ANYTHING Hitler could have thought up. "If you don't accept Jesus, YOU'RE GOING TO HELL, LITTLE BOY (or girl!)."
There was one that spoke of a Muslim man who did wonderful things for his fellow man, and for his people. He was religious, a good person, and kind. Then some guy tells him about Jesus, and he says that he's got his beliefs and religion already, but thank you anyway. And when he got to Hell (yep), he asked Satan why he was there, when he did nothing but good deeds. Satan's response? "You didn't believe in Jesus, even though you were told about him."
Didn't believe in Jesus? You mean you can be an amazing person, but if you don't believe in Jesus, fuck you? Is that the kind of God they want me to believe in? Pft.
You know, lately the Catholic Church has been good at eating its own foot without tossing Hitler in there. I mean, that just looks like he's trying way too hard. A stencil too? Wow. The Founding Fathers were deists. That one would be nice.
I would go back and read those tracts for a laugh, but I can't do it for long because I know so many people take them seriously. Augh.
Because some people are more into Other People Are Wrong than they are into anything else...and a religion that *does* believe it is uniquely correct feeds into that rather well. (It drives those of us on the inside bonkers....)
the dungeons and dragons tract is the most laughably/infuriatingly uninformed of them all.
because if you like making up fantasy stories then you are obviously a Satan-worshiping lesbian witch human sacrifice. LOL, everyone knows girls don't play D&D.
