What’s interesting about this lawsuit, though, is that Paxton is effectively suing a Christian ministry for helping unhoused people—and the ministry plans to respond to the threat by saying they have a religious right to assist others:

I didn't read this because you cannot be bothered to think that the extremely racist views you chose to hold aren't universal

By your logic, humanity is entirely putrid and unsalvageable and I can conclude that based on literally just your past professed beliefs which you suddenly now claim no responsibility for and instead choose blind, yes 100% blind, hatred as a piss poor excuse for making amends for the awful shit that you "volunteered" for

Well, since you aren't reading this, I hope you have a good day and all of your dreams come true.

My views are no longer racist. That was the whole point of my rant. I was raised a christofascist in the purest sense. I had to escape that shit. I have every reason to hate it, because it never bothered to apologize for nearly destroying my life.

And here's the thing about being an ex-Christian, and having to deal with the responsibility of my former actions. I'm not making a twitter apology and moving on with my life to leave the victims of my hate to deal with their broken lives on their own. My life is now dedicated to fixing my past mistakes. I battle against the lies I formerly held true because I want to make amends for all of the damage I caused. When I curse the names of priests, rabbis, and gurus, it's not some misguided hate. It's a fucking fascist seeking missile aimed directly at the people that want to destroy the world, all for the sake of the lies they believe and the power they crave. You really want to be the human shield for a pedophile priest?

I knew a bigot was impossible to converse with and that last line is pure pathetic proof of it.

If this hatred and way of speaking is what you think passes for making amends, you're entirely hopeless. The fact is that you're aiming your hate at people who never believed the awful shit YOU believed. And apparently thinking that your hate helps a single fucking person

They believe the bible. The bible is a book of hate.

Sigh. I don't know why I bother with the Christian apologists on a fucking atheism board.

Adios.
