Nah, I'm just tired of atheists looking like even worse assholes than the evangelicals lately.

Nice job managing to be an asshole about both myself and pagans, though! There are plenty of ways to say what you did in a sensitive way.

I wasn't at all insulting paganism. I know some fucking cool pagans. I just don't think it makes MORE sense than major religions. That doesn't mean it makes less sense.

Didn't see anything in ill_omened's comment that said anything negative about paganism or implied you were insulting paganism. They just confirmed that the form of paganism practiced today is new. Which is what you were saying.

FWIW, I understood what you meant wrt to paganism. I'm pagan myself, and something that annoys me in a number of pagan communities is the superiority and bashing of other religions. They don't work for you? Great. You want to talk about your negative experiences with $religion? Sure, go ahead. But when you start stating in an objective way that paganism is so much better than $religion... no, just no. It's better for YOU. Shitting on other people's religious choices because you think $religion sucks just makes you an asshole.

/may have feelings about this

'Asshole' evangelicals literally believe gay people are burning in hell, and contribute to a culture in which having sex with men can get you seriously hurt or killed.

And what, obnoxious atheists at worst contribute to some dumb quotes on reddit, and a culture where if you say the wrong thing on a tiny minority of websites you might get told you're dumb? This isn't even close to comparable, and I'm not going to let you pretend like it is. South Park as funny as it can occasionally be shouldn't inform your worldview.

p.s. if you can literally trace 99% of your religion back to some random civil servant, that does make it less legitimate than something with a lineage as extensive as christianity. Not a lot to be sure, but just a little.

What the fuck does South Park have to do with anything? Did you seriously think I got this from South Park?

Anyway, yes, you're right. Christianity is way more legitimate because we can trace our lineage back to a bunch of civil servants who worked for CONSTANTINE, thank you very much.

>"Well our mythology is more legit because..."

Holy shit you guys sound like obsessed fans of two rival football teams.

And yes pagans can trace their lineage (???) centuries before was even born so you lose on that little part of the shitflinging contest, sorry.
