Grave robbers took the body and then people either had mass delusions about seeing his ghost or simply made shit up.
Have a great Sunday non-Christians, atheists and agnostics!

You could have done this with grace....but instead chose to ridicule those who believe. I respect those who are non-Christians, atheists and agnostics and would NEVER poke fun at them. Maybe you could do the same to those who don't share your beliefs... |

Wow. I am not even remotely religious, but find myself offended by this. Tasteless in the extreme.
And in the next breath you will be seeking affirmation and praise because you have a couple of stray cats in your garage.

lol, I was making bread and my dh joked I should shaped the bread into a lamb so then we could say "he is risen". We are celebrating pastover, with pirate costumes if we ever get to going over to the in-laws, as my baby is napping. Instead of an egg hunt we searched for "pirate heads" (star wars helmet shaped eggs).

Very rude. I don't make fun of others for what they believe. That is how bullying starts. Thought this board had adults on it.

Ok I'm going to validate the op because I was wished "happy zombie Jesus day". Though we did have a discussion whether a resurrected Jesus would be a zombie or actually a lich (and then if so, what kind).
I don't use it to poke fun directly at those celebrating though. Mostly joking within non believers.

Okay, that was funny.
I saw a John Oliver episode that made me laugh.. I'm paraphrasing, but it was how Christianity starts with a woman made from a rib who eats fruit after a snake tells her to and then she has to put on clothes and leave a garden.. ends with "what.the.fuck".
I don't think it's bullying. You might not LIKE it, but it's not bullying. There are agnostics and atheists who could just as easily open another thread and say, "stop proselytizing to me!" that's not what believers who unite are doing, and that's not what agnostics and atheists are doing here either.
I can respect someone's right to believe, but by NOT believing I'm not bullying.

I opened the "He is risen!" thread awhile ago, hoping to see a funny meme or something, but saw they were serious so I exited. It's not that hard to do. |

It absolutely is one way took at it. Funny is a stretch. Offensive if you let it. But everyone is free to believe in the resurrection or not.

Some people need to look up what bullying means, it's not one asshole comment on the internet. lainey- you are so right-one comment (nasty or sarcastic) doesn't equal bullying. A kid gets called a name because he wears glasses and the parents or school label the name caller a bully. |

I'd eally like to know what made you so bitter and angry and hateful. I have many agnostic and even atheist friends but never would they stoop this low.
If prayers aren't your thing, maybe therapy should be considered. I'm not being sarcastic or snide. I truly worry about your well being at times. Your behavior is so off kilter at times.
I'm praying for you anyway.

Why do you chose to be a jerk? I have not ridiculed you, but then ridicule is the basest form of argument reserved for those who have nothing intelligent to say |

I'm praying for you anyway. Your atheist friends just know that amongst believers isn't the time or place because you will be offended.we live in this overtly Christian society where our lack of belief is regularly scoffed at and mocked. Plenty of sarcasm abounds amongst ourselves but we don't share it for this reason. Especially because of the snarky "I'm praying for you" comments. If someone is mocking your belief system your offer is just silly. Close the thread and don't let it bug you. We all have a choice to be offended or not. So I won't be offended that you are offering non sincere offers of prayer for people and you don't be offended that other people think your religious beliefs are nonsense. It's a win win. |

I hope you have a great Sunday too, Yubon. To my fellow Christians offended by Yubon's post, I'd like you to ask yourself why you are offended and then remember that Jesus doesn't ask us to defend Him, He asks us to love people, all people - not judge them, not return tit for tat, not to be offended on His behalf. Mark 12:30-31 |

While I wouldn't have posted a thread like this, I don't think it's any more rude than the "Happy Easter only to those who celebrate it as a religious holiday" thread. And nary an atheist jumped in there to say how offended they were.

Have a great Sunday non-Christians, atheists and agnostics! re: being offended by this post.... The thing is, this *is* what non-believers think about those events. They don't believe Jesus was the son of God, and they don't believe in resurrection. They do think that people had delusions about seeing a ghost. And maybe people did "make shit up". My personal belief is that Jesus Christ was resurrected on the third day which we now call Easter, and it doesn't matter to me what anyone else thinks. On the other hand I would ask why OP felt the need to post this on Easter, the holiest Christian day. Since it's just an ordinary Sunday to anyone who isn't Christian then why bother to post "have a great Sunday"? |
