I'm sitting at my girlfriends grandparents house with her entire extended family of christians. The christians that believe in the literal interpretation of the bible. Its hard to understand how they can be so convinced of complete and utter nonsense.:facepalm3:

Days like these make whiskey taste so much better.


my girlfriend of 5 years is a christian creationist who denies evolution :feelsbadman:


it doesn't cause arguments very frequently and I have never once tried to convince her she was wrong.  rather it is HER telling me that I AM wrong.


I even grant her that Jesus of Nazareth may have lived, even though his entire existence is hearsay.  I grant that he spread messages of peace even. But he was mortal.  and she just does NOT want to hear that.  her precious savior, the source of all moral values :rolleyes: :stonedjerk:

So introduce her to the door.
I mean to kick her out, not slam her head into the door. Whatever works for you, though.

Alternately, provide elucidation for her. She needs to know what an irrational dumbass she is, and how this is detrimental to a healthy relationship.

Where did you get that?


google and my childhood say
"The most important and oldest festival of the Christian Church, celebrating the resurrection of Christ and held (in the Western Church)..."

I haven't gone to church in almost a decade. My family is pretty secular, with the exception of my little old Italian grandmother. It blew her mind today that all the stores were not closed for Easter. I'm just having a quiet dinner with my parents, my brother, and her. Easter lost it's magic when I realized the Easter bunny wasn't real.

Next year I want to go to a midnight candlelit mass on Christmas, but on acid hahaha. I don't think many Catholics I know would approve, but ah well it'll certainly be an experience.

I'd like to shower napalm on a candlelit mass at Christmas. On acid.

Learning something in church? Isn't learning about questioning things to expand your ideas about them? Something that the church is 100% against.

Funny thread though, #3 is the best XD

false. the vernal equinox is the 'pagan' holiday, easter doesnt fall on the equinox


Easter's date has something to do with the moon cycle (like menstruations), so it is still all paganny and shit.

Yeah, I'm not at all a fan of the gull-wing design, and to a lesser extent, the scissor door design.
I wouldn't drive an SLS AMG, either. But they look alright, for a German vehicle.

false, easter rarely even falls in march and us usually near mid april, the
vernal equinox is in mid march, easter is the shortened retarded version of
passover. the greek and latin writers of the bible called easter and passover
by the jewish name Pascha and the 'last supper' was in fact the feast of
unleavened bread. the bible records the time as being the first month of the
year, ie, spring when things were 'returning to life' and hence the legend is
born

as does the date of the passover, it's a sunday after the full moon just as
easter falls in the latter part of the passover week, the 'pagans' dont
celebrate the vernal equinox a week after the full moon do they?

It's pronounced ish-tar.
As far as I know, it has no relation to Easter, aside from being vaguely homophonic.

Fuck all holidays and deities.

I believe in Jesus and his message, but the whole ressurection thing goes against my scientific views of the universe.

Now, in my mind, its much more likely that jesus survived the 3 hours he was on the cross and entered an unconcsious state which made him appear dead. After 2 days in the tomb, he simply regained consciousness and fled/hid from the Romans and Jews until he was strong enough to trek across the middle east to India to attempt to reunite the other 10 (of 12) tribes of Israel. He died from old age and is buried in a tomb in Kashmir. There is anecdotal evidence of this occuring and my common sense seems to gravitate towards this story as opposed to an actual death/resurrection/physical body ascendence to heaven.
