[From a thread about FSTDT]
Looks like I made it too. Twice. I wonder if being made fun of on the internet because of Christ is the same as persecution? And if it is, am I laying up treasures in heaven because of it?

Always with the persecution...always with the treasures...
I am suddenly pining for the Rapture too. They can be hauled off to f#$% up Heaven, and we can finally have some peace...
No, persecution is painful, physically. Persecution results in loss of freedom, and possibly loss of life. Persecution is when you aren't allowed to practise your belief system.
Telling you that you can't persecute others is not persecution.
Calling you a blithering idiot is not persecuting you. Mocking you, yes, persecution, no.
Yes, yes, we're all giving you crowns in heaven when we call you an idiot. Lonewolf's pile is still bigger, though :P
It isn't, and you're not getting any treasures because:
1. Why would you get treasure for being made fun of? It is rather illogical. Is there somebody in Heaven who subsidizes the publishing of idiotic thoughts with treasures?
2. Heaven doesn't exist.
*giggle*
...really ? heheh...re..hehe...really ? You guys really are just looking for excuses arentya, you'd scream persecution if someone farted in your direction.
Help, we're being persecuted for mocking stupidity on the internet!
See how fucking idiotic that sounds?
With the moronic posts that Rupture Ready excel at, what do you expect?
It would be bad enough if we had people on this planet trading their independence, right to think for themselves and desire to achieve greatness for a few handfuls of treasure. That would be enough to cast our entire species in a bad and ugly light.
The fact that we have people trading all of those things for a few handfuls of treasure ... THEY WILL RECIEVE AFTER THEY DIE is just so fucking sad I just wish the robots would hurry up and take over.
You Xtians and your 'persecution' bullshit - when you are thrown into a dungeon and tortured because of your beliefs (and we all hope it will happen soon), THEN you can cry "persecution". Just because others call you on your ridiculous claims and religious delusions it doesn't mean you are persecuted!
Well, all I can say is I never take any notice of the user name - it's the utter stupidity of what the post says that is worth commenting on. So, how stupid were you, whateveryournameis?
But if being mentioned on this Board makes you a legend in your own mind, or your own lunchtime...

Nobody is being made fun of here because of Christ. Only because they say idiotic things. I've never seen anyone being mocked here for saying they want to follow Christ's actual teachings. You know, the stuff about about being nice to each other and helping the needy.
Of course, this makes three times so fracturedInfinity will expect even more treasure.
Sorry, but you are made fun of because you are, quite frankly, nuts. Now if you actually followed Christ (you know, all that hippy style love thy neighbour stuff) then you wouldnt be made fun of.
If your skin isn't thick enough to take a few stinging barbs then you don't really want to go spouting idiotic beliefs over the internet without the wherewithal to defend them.
Because people will crucify you.
When you start being imprisoned, threatened, executed, or have your rights stripped from you because of your beliefs then you can claim persecution. People laughing at you because you sound like a backwater, uneducated loon isn't even close.
Black slaves were persecuted. Native Americans were persecuted. The Jews were persecuted by the Nazis. The suffragettes were persecuted. Early Christians were persecuted by the Romans.
You, on the other hand, are a spoiled brat who has never suffered like these people, but gained from their suffering and has never been grateful for it. STFU.
You have wet dreams about being killed for your faith don't you?
No, and no.
Please try again.
Mockery. Is not. Persecution.
And what goddamn good is treasure going to do you in the afterlife? Greed's a sin, y'know.
IT IS SELFISH TO TRY AND GET PERSECUTED JUST SO YOU CAN GET MORE TREASURES IN HEAVEN.
Being made fun of by a group of people is not persecution!
I'm a Christian and even I know this.
No being made fun of on the Internet for your beliefs IS NOT persecution. Being imprisoned or killed for your beliefs is persecution. Being enslaved, or killed for your ethnicity is persecution.
If you can't take being made fun of, you should get the fuck off the Internet, because sooner or later, if you are on the Internet, somebody will make fun of you. Especially if you believe in stupid shit.
Because torture and murder is TOTALLY equivalent to being mocked by random people on the internet. You fucking tool. I can't believe you would even ASK. No. It is not the same.
Also, just FYI? FSTDT isn't making fun of you lot because you're Christian. It's making fun of you because you say stupid and/or insane things on the internet in the name of whatever god you worship.
But don't let earth logic get in the way lest the world forgets it's all about you, eh?
I don't get it. Why all the fuss about gems and gold? I'd rather have an afterlife where I could run, play with dearly departed pets, read, maybe finally try my hand at hunting. Being surrounded by 24/7 harp music emanating from millions of jewel-dotted mansions and brainless, endless praising sound so boring.
I wonder if being made fun of on the internet because of Christ is the same as persecution?
It isn't. Although I am starting to think that every one of you fuckers who screams they're persecuted should be fed to lions.
No, dearie, being made fun of is not persecution. And, it's because of stupidity, not because of Christ. We have moderate Christians here, who also make fun of you.
In order to "lay up treasures in heaven", perhaps you ought to, ya know; DO something. Give to the poor, help the sick get medical care, assist the elderly, teach children to love thy neighbor as yourself, liberate dogs from abusive owners. Things like that, which that hippie with long beard and a dress told you to, in that musty old book of yours...
Burning people at the stake for believing that stars are other suns, and stars could have planets of their own, THAT is persecution. Burning people at the stake for being a witch, THAT is persecution.
Now I wonder who might have done that?
Psst, Wanna really go overboard on heavenly treasure ?
Send me $50 a week and I'll mock you on a daily basis.
One time offer. Grab it now while it's available.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
