[Closed] "I hate God" on a t-shirt

seems you had a few pre-conceived notions blown all at once there!

So what does Woppitt actually look like then?

I was tempted to stop and have a chat. Was most curious about this.

You stole the words right out of my mouth (or my keyboard). 😆

Not the most handsome of men. Had a bad ponytail. Didn't look like he'd ride a bike but I could say that about a lot of my bike riding mates 🙂

Technically it means nothing! Rather like saying 'I hate Mr' 'I hate Sir' 'I hate Lord' God is a title not a person or being.
So it's a bit of a w***y teeshirt really, probably just like it's owner.
'I hate Gods' might have been better, or I'm assuming he means 'I hate Jehovah'
I'm thinking of buying one that reads 'I hate bell ends'

If you get one printed I'd buy one!

I think what puzzled me is that I assumed people either believed in God and thought he was great, or didn't believe. To believe and hate seemed a bit bizarre. I wonder how much thought he'd put into his apparel.

I'm pretty sure most people who believe in a Monotheism would say God is not just a title, but a specific being/person.

I'll have to Google that bluebird, so hang on.

tantamount to wearing a donald duck tie

Have you considered that he may not believe in god, but just likes pissing off people who do?

Ah of course. Thing is what they beleive doesn't change the meaning of 'a word' regardless of the proof of existance, there are many Gods.

Are they a no no then 😳

Possibly it's just snappier than "I hate the fictional character of God as expressed by religious halfwits"?

I hate Allah would have been harder.

Are you sure it wasn't http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eyehategod ?

Slightly bizarre that this plonker can walk round with that on which must offend quite a lot of people but if he was to change the name from 'God' to say, ooh I don't know, another religion's main man then he would be vilified. I nearly said all hell would break loose.
5th - beat me to it.

Surely they would take some solace from the fact that he actually believed in God?

Maybe I've put more thought into this that the wearer of said t-shirt?

Good lord no, they're just as valid as, say, a **** (french connection UK) shirt

Phew.

Assuming that the wearer had some level of intelligence and realised the illogical tautology of the message, it does seem likely that the intention was to offend.

Given that the impulse generated would more likely be an urge to convert the wearer to the alleged "love" of the alleged Nazarene, I think this would have been more effective, although requiring considerably larger family jewels to parade around in public...

Ooh I dunno, I'm quite fond of mine.

Is it unreasonable to hate a fictional character though? I hate Miss Marple.

I hate Noddy, bloody goody two shoes.

Plural though, do you feel the same about everyone else's?

maybe he was angry as god had taken away a loved one

if you area christian forgive him

if you are god smite his ass

if it was 'eye hate god' they're a band from new orleans

If you turn that fish through 90° counter clockwise, it kind of looks a little bit like a very simple/stylised lady's front bottom, and the very top of the inside of her thighs.

Perhaps Mary was, and consequently always lying down, So, it's not a fish but Mary's foofee.

Any link to the band Eye Hate God?

"foofee" word of the day 😀

My mate has a t-shirt that says: Your Retarded

(Note the grammar)

Love it.

Maybe he was a dyslexic cat person.

I still cringe about the fact I used to wear a tshirt with "Fu€|<ing hostile" written on it!! Teenagers 🙄

EyeHateGod are pure New Orleans sludge:

Bower Power!

I was at a gig at The Academy in Manchester a few years back and some charmer had a tee shirt with "Jesus is a c..." embalzoned across the back.

I was quite shocked by it.

Derek, that'll be an old cradle of filth T shirt then 😆

'I ate God' would have been slightly more impressive..

That eye hate god track sounds like a cross between that Wolfmother song and some QOTSA, not a bad thing.

It's ok. non-harming attention seeker. They are everywhere. Don't worry, there is nothing to fear.

i think the guy is still in prison for looting during the floods whilst armed, though this might have seemed a perfectly necessary thing to do given the circumstances.

I'd like 'I ate Cod' on the inside of a hat.

I love Eyehategod: Seen them many times.

I have a Eyehategod t-shirt It says "Kill your boss" on the back 8)

With reference to the OP: I think the t-shirt is actually meant to reflect an aggression towards authority, as much as anything. I could probably just as easily have said "I hate laws", or "I hate the police" etc etc

Even if you don't believe in god, many see the representation of "god" as a means of suppression and control, and therefore saying you hate god suggests that you are against such institutionalized control.

You get these religious fruitcakes who claim to have deciphered numerous coded messages in the Bible. They claim the Bible has accurately predicted a number of recent catastrophic events. Why is it then, that all these bible bashers don't rock up before a disaster to warn people of the imminent danger? That would be the Christian thing to do now wouldn't it?

I wonder if they've tried spelling god back to front?

Anyhow, if God did exist, he'd have to be a malicious vindictive little cxxt for all the suffering he inflicts on all the innocent and good people of the world.

If I saw someone regularly with a tee like that I'd want one that says 'My God's not too fond of you either'

just wearing a T shirt with a slogan shows a depressing lack of commitment. If you are going to take issue with Christianity at least do it like the black metal crowd and burn some churches.

These people used to do that as well...

oooo I wonder if they use this

to get their supremacy whiter than white

I used to wear a t-shirt to clubs in my early 20's (not that long ago) that declared:

"Fred Durst is a ****"

P.S. that's **** with a 'c', and you'll probably have to Google 'Fred Durst' 😀

"god hates me" is a better slogan surely? confuse the god botherers

Why not just have 'I don't agree with people who are religious as we have differing opinions about stuff', or is that not attention-seeking enough?

I mean, 'I hate God', just makes you look like a teenage knob really.

[i]'Wow everyone; look how controversial and provocative I am'[/i]

No, yer a knob.

so, an eye hate god fan ride then?

iron monkey 'seven joint spiritual whip'

sludgetastic

didn't that cradle t-shirt have a nun on the front pleasuring herself with a crucifix?

that's the one

Akercoke always have jolly T shirts and imagery as well

Nordic metallers Dimmu Borgir had a very tasteful shirt that said "C**t Hunters of the Night". Charming.

IIRC there was a popular T shirt in the 70's which had emblazoned on the front
"Clapton is God"
and on the rear
"Who is God ?"
Gentler,wittier times....
Though years later Clapton's toddler son did fall to his death out of a balcony window.
The Lord's vengeance?
Perhaps we should all be a bit more careful....

... so nothing to do with too much cocaine and alcohol then?

IMO if left as a solitary statement, "I Hate God", or Eyehategod, is actually more of an intellectual statement than many people give it credit for; given that "god" can mean so many different things to so many people

this is better than i hate god 8)

Talking of tasteless tee shirts...

An good friend from school had a straight-jacket with 'I **** my mother' on it, along with an illustration of someone, well, ****ing his mother - splashing love juice and everything.

Tim used to hide it in a bin liner at the bottom of his garden and change into it when we went to school parties.

Nice.

I always wanted a T-Shirt that said "Your favourite band is sh1t!". Offends everyone equally; I [b]believe[/b] in equality.
