But this is precisely the attitude that has put me off most americans christians. You don't find crazy people like that over Britain, or at least very rarely.

eek


There are just as many crazy Brits out there. It's just that Americans usually don't have the manners to hide their insanity.

*agreement*
Thank the unbelieveable British manners for that one. Trust me, there are just as many (percentage wise) religious nutters in the UK as there are in America, I've had enough abuse hurled at me to know so (Satan's b***h/whore among others) though, I have to admit the America does seem to produce it's own very....special and unique type of bigot. Be proud to be American! You have interesting specimins of hate! xd

As an american, i sadly agree with that one.

Whoa. I'm hoping this is a parody site.

It's hard to say what offends me most. The treatment of the depressed isn't the only offense to human decency on this site and it's probably not the worst one either, but it's what I know the most about and I feel like ranting at it. Earth to bigots: Self-harmers don't do it because they think it's right. They do it because they're desperate to distract themselves from hopelessness so intense that it drives them to thoughts of suicide. If you've got a biochemical malfunction and no meds to help it, sometimes the only choice is between self harm and DEATH. And let me tell you, being the victim of satanist stigma doesn't help. If the people who write this s**t were forced to deal with a mental illness, there's no way in HELL they wouldn't cut themselves.

But in a way, that's beside the point. The point here is that they're equating depression with gothdom. Plenty of goths aren't depressed and most depressed people aren't goth. The same goes for all the other groups they're ragging on... wiccans, satanists, strumpets, etc. etc.

Britain does to, though. They may be subtle about it, but those BNPers are SCARY, SCARY PEOPLE.

For frell sake! I am so tired of getting thrown into the same category as satanists! I'm not wiccan but i am a witch (yes there is a difference) and its really getting old! If they would just do a little research they would learn that we don't even believe in satan so how can we worship him! sorry i'm sure you have all heard rants like that before...just..couldn't stop it haha


I feel your pain! I'm Pagan and I'm sick of people thinking I'm evil, or that my religion has anything to do with the fact that I'm goth.

What? When I became Wiccan, I must not have read the fine print. Human sacrifice? And here are I thought we were just a nature-loving, peaceful, pagan religion.

This is both pathetic and amusing.


lol, well someone once called me a "fluff-bunny" for thinking that was what Wicca was. Gee, I guess every book and website about Wicca I've ever read has been wrong . . .

...It seems likely that it is a joke...

For as ignorant as christians can be, it seems as though they either hired somone to do it for them* or they have a nerd among their numbers.

*I doubt this, because if they had outside help to put up the website, you would think that the outside person would at least have the decentcy to spell check...

I was looking at that two nights ago with my nurse and the two of us were laughing our heads off. We're both Catholic and go to the same church, and both admit that there are some crazy close minded people in our religion. (like all religions, we have our extremists) but that doesn't count for the religion as a whole. I don't even think that Jesus was aiming at creating a new religion, only to fix the flows in his own and to bring the people closer to God. He excepted people of other religions, prostitutes, robbers, tax collectors. If they were good people, if they were truly sorry for thier sins, he held nothing against them.

... the funny thing is that christians used to be the ones victimized by the romans, until the romans adopted their religion and began spreading it by force or military brainwashing throughout the empire. since then, christians have more or less attacked everyone else, including each other.

As a Christian, unfortunaly I have to agree with DR490N's statement, and its something I never liked knowing the church has done. And as for attacking ourselvs, I have never figured out.

Oh hell yeah.

I'm pagan too. I'm not very blatant about it and I've never been called a Satanist personally, but it hurts to see us lumped in with those people. Sure, not all Satanists are nasty or evil, but no one likes to be taken for something they're not.

I think they *are*... to all the sane people, anyway. Most of my friends think they're a joke, and a really bad joke too.

Come to Norwich. It's safe here, and almost everyone's a socialist progressive! wink

...Excuse me, I'm recovering from the shock of how completly wrong someone can be.
Let's see the definition of terrorist according to Merriam-Webster:
ter·ror·ism
Pronunciation: 'ter-&r-"i-z&m
Function: noun
: the systematic use of terror especially as a means of coercion
- ter·ror·ist /-&r-ist/ adjective or noun
- ter·ror·is·tic /"ter-&r-'is-tik/ adjective
Coercion? Then that means...oh no! Those Christian kids who yell at me in school are terrorists! But it's all to spread God's will so it's just fine and dandy!
SIgh...My sister still wonders why I'm converting to Buddism.

The more I look at the page and it's links, the more that I think it's a joke as well.

Particularly when you examine the diction. Even insane far-right traditionalists wouldn't make a t-shirt that reads "Goths are ******** cunts".

I would dwell where the socialist-progressives dwell, if I didn't have qualms with socialism.

Also, as long as nobody is obnoxious about it... socialist-progressives in America tend to be pretentious jerks (at least the ones with the loudest voices are).
