BIBLE BASHERS BOOT BADGE

Religious people aren't morons.
Atheists aren't morons.
The morons are whoever decides to flaunt their religious views either if they are atheists or religious.
I'm proud of my religion just like I am proud of my heritage. But I also dislike the overtly religious or the overtly atheist.
Religion is a personal thing that some feel have a connection to. Some don't , but that's nothing to be proud OR jealous of.
My two pence

My mates got a white Hilux, we have joked about putting a small Isis sticker on the tailgate... Wonder how that would go down 
Do it! Possibly in the format 'ISIS (joke)'Reminds me of the red gaffer tape cock and balls my colleagues skillfully applied to the rear centre brake light on my car that only really showed as a shadowy area when the brake lights were on.
Needless to say he is buying a red one next time around.

I think it was in the TV series Rev where the vicar said he didn't think the bible was literally true but contained some thought through answers to some of life's difficult questions.
As an atheist, that strikes me as exactly how it SHOULD be viewed. The whole big-beardy-bloke-and-lad thing is a metaphor for explaining stuff that was way beyond (contemporary) science, and view it as a set of social rules (appropriate to the time). Trouble is, it's only been updated twice, and the last revision was 1,400 years ago.The thing that I find most inexplicable is how the three stops on the Abrahamic timeline are so similar, with the one in the middle most often the odd one out, while the biggest fans of the two ends are the ones hardest at each other's throats... What IS that about?

Haha, it is tempting, although with what we have already done in it I think we risk drawing serious attention, driving through town 4 up with 2 brown lads in the back blaring saleel sawarim (the Isis propaganda song) out the stereo. In foresight an extremely disrespectful and utterly stupid idea... Hilarious at the time though, we where all trashed, designated driver wasn't too chuffed.
I only wish I could've seen that, I'd have laughed until it hurt.(Acknowledging also, of course, that it was a stupid idea)

The biggest fans I suppose are the ones who can't accept that anyone else can have even a smidgin of a good idea or a valid but different way of seeing things.The thing that I find most inexplicable is how the three stops on the Abrahamic timeline are so similar, with the one in the middle most often the odd one out, while the biggest fans of the two ends are the ones hardest at each other's throats...

have you actually read the Bible?!
intriguing that Atheists always seem to be worried that folks believe in God - if God doesn't exist, why does it matter if someone believes in Him?
If the message of the Bible is true - then folks might be better off believing in it - if it is not true there is no harm in having believed it, it would be irrelevant... so statistically you are better off at least checking out whether it might be true!

Then she saddled a donkey and said to her servant, "Drive and go forward; do not slow down the pace for me unless I tell you."
2 Kings 9:20. said:
The watchman reported, "He came even to them, and he did not return; and the driving is like the driving of Jehu the son of Nimshi, for he drives furiously."

Behold, he goes up like clouds, And his chariots like the whirlwind; His horses are swifter than eagles

I just think when I see one that they are probably quite nice, will generally not get all road ragey but tend to be older folk and possibly a little erratic, slow and dithery, just an extra clue on which to base my decisions on,, may well be wrong but driving involves using a lot of that kind of information to try and anticipate and plan.
I dont think it is really being Christian I take issue with, just the feeling the need to put it on your car that makes me wonder, I dont put on I like Cheese or that I am hetrosexual, its a bit strange, a bit like PH stickers really, or the one I saw that said "Soft Coated Wheaten Terriers in transit", which got me thinking, are there hard coated ones ? why are they "Wheaten" ? do they smell like breakfast cereal ? and why would I care what breed, "Dogs in Transit" would work as well as I am not breed prejudiced, and why "In Transit", sounds really official and important but its a dog or dogs in a car and that wont change my driving, best not crash into that car on purpose, might kill or injure some "Soft Coated Wheaten Terriers" and be labelled a Terrierrist.

Atheism is not a religious view. It is rational, scientific and evidence based, which is distinct from Faith based religion.Atheists aren't morons.
