Another mass shooting narrowly averted and the only comments here are how stupid religious people are because they happened to thank their God.
Maybe take a moment to reflect on if this level of tribalism and callousness represents the sort of person you want to be.
Thank you. I'll get hammered with downvotes but not everyone who believes in God is a moron, or a Republican, or a Trump supporter, or anti-science, or homophobic, or judgmental or any other shit like that. Some of us are pretty normal.
I never once ever called a person a moron for believing in skydaddy. I know it simply isn't true because I have worked with plenty of wicked smart skydaddy followers. Also I was one and didn't get any smarter when I left religion.
The rest of the stuff yeah sure you are all basically the same. Don't really care that some of you pretend to be otherwise on the internet. I have seen how you vote and that is all the data I need. Sorry your Pope is having legal issues now.
Don't cut yourself with that edge.
2005 wants their one-liner back.
