JESUS FREAKS.

Since I can't reply over on dv_girl 's entry about this, here's my reply to this.

Here's my comment (in reply to another comment)

Here's some jesus freak's
  Subject: That's incorrect

  The Bible is not mythology - it is historically accurate - proven not
  only by historians, but archeologists and scientists. Do your homework.
  You are speaking from ignorance. You are also letting the demonic forces
  speak through you - that's why there is so much anger and hatred and
  disbelief. Jesus is love, joy, peace, gentleness and kindness. If you
  KNEW Him and His LOVE - you'd never speak against Him. If you're not in
  peace.......you're on the wrong road.

  I used to think like you do. I used to speak with anger, bitterness and
  hatred. That's all changed. He's taught me a better way. Now I see and
  know the Bible to be the most incredible, intricate document - like a
  treasure hunt every time you open it. Every sentence is at least 7 layers
  deep. Everything is both literal and symbolic. If you studied the Hebraic
  root of each name, place name, or word, you would find stories within
  stories and pictures within pictures.

  Don't point a finger at something you know nothing about.

  The Lord says "My people perish for a lack of knowledge." That means you.
  Better think twice. The time is coming, when you won't have time - it'll
  be too late. We're in the final chapters of a more than 4,000 year story.

To which my response is....
"LOL"

LOL indeed. :D

That is sooooo, *SO* sad. And for once, I'm not afraid to use a condescending tone.

...... I can only counter with Blessed Mother St. Britney giving birth as an icon of the anti-choice movement. If you're gonna kill my brain cells with stupid, by Zeus, I'm gonna retaliate!

OH THAT'S GOTTA GO OUT OF MY BRAIN... YES, YES, INDEED.

I don't think I've ever seen someone give birth doggy style before.

Damn, my TV doesn't even have Picture in Picture... Cheap ass TV :\ Maybe I should just sit and read a bible if I want to rot my brain with myth and fantasy.

On that note, the body has seven layers of skin! And the Necronomicon is supposedly wrapped in the skin of the dead. So, the Necronomicon is also seven layers deep! Therefore, we should all believe in the good word of the Necronomicon.

And if a Taco Bell seven-layer burrito were made from the binding of the Necronomicon.. ?

VORE!

Cannibalism would silently and unknowingly become VERY popular.

I dunno, while this person is obviously misinformed, it's nice to see someone who's not actually being a total asshole about it. I tend to frown on Christians who get nasty about this, but this personis actuall being fairly Christian, and talking about the whole love message. It seems like there are a lot better targets for condescension.

No, I think he's just a jesus freak. Well besides being misinformed that I havn't "done my homework".
Obviously I havn't learnt greek, but I have been reading!

Also, demonic forces? Freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaak.

The whole "My people perish for a lack of knowledge." and the time is coming is nicely delusional and funny, though.
