You Know
You're a Fundamentalist If...
10 - You
vigorously deny the existence of thousands of gods claimed
by other religions, but feel outraged when someone denies
the existence of yours.
9 - You feel insulted and "dehumanized" when
scientists say that people evolved from other life forms,
but you have no problem with the Biblical claim that
we were created from dirt.
8 - You laugh at polytheists, but you have no problem
believing in a Triune God.
7 - Your face turns purple when you hear of the "atrocities" attributed
to Allah, but you don't even flinch when hearing about
how God/Jehovah slaughtered all the babies of Egypt in "Exodus" and
ordered the elimination of entire ethnic groups in "Joshua" including
women, children, and trees!
6 - You laugh at Hindu beliefs that deify humans, and
Greek claims about gods sleeping with women, but you
have no problem believing that the Holy Spirit impregnated
Mary, who then gave birth to a man-god who got killed,
came back to life and then ascended into the sky.
5 - You are willing to spend your life looking for little
loopholes in the scientifically established age of Earth
(few billion years), but you find nothing wrong with
believing dates recorded by Bronze Age tribesmen sitting
in their tents and guessing that Earth is a few generations
old.
4 - You believe that the entire population of this planet
with the exception of those who share your beliefs --
though excluding those in all rival sects - will spend
Eternity in an infinite Hell of Suffering. And yet consider
your religion the most "tolerant" and "loving."
3 - While modern science, history, geology, biology,
and physics have failed to convince you otherwise, some
idiot rolling around on the floor speaking in "tongues" may
be all the evidence you need to "prove" Christianity.
2 - You define 0.01% as a "high success rate" when
it comes to answered prayers. You consider that to be
evidence that prayer works. And you think that the remaining
99.99% FAILURE was simply the will of God.
1 - You actually know a lot less than many atheists and
agnostics do about the Bible, Christianity, and church
history - but still call yourself a Christian. |
