Pentecost………..well i never.

just sat listening to songs of praise (pentecost special)
never realised so many young people were into religion.
it all seems very trendy and happy.

I thought Pentecost was another supermarket chain….like Lidl or Locost.

I thought it was a mispronunciation of rentaghost.

delusion starts at a very young age these days.

Indoctrination into cults is not a laughing matter.

Nothing worse than a zealous atheist.

apart from overly zealous religious types who try and mask the flaws of their belief system with happy-clappy.

I used to be happy clappy.

Now, oddly as an atheist, I can still speak in tongues. Guess it wasn’t the spirit of god afterall. Doh..

At least they’ve got rhythm.

Indeed.

some of the tunes were very uplifting

A.W.E.S.O.M.E

Be careful ton. Be very, very careful…….

ds, why?

Seems no matter *what* an atheist puts down they are accused of being zealous.

You forgot the word ‘shrill’. You lose a point for that you know.

You could be about to be “drawn in”. Have you checked the potential side effects of digoxin? “rarely, a propensity to have religious thoughts; possibly manifesting in setting down to watch SoP with a nice cup of tea and a French fancy. ”

I used to think Pentecostal churches were a nice happy, fun brand of christianity – but it’s actually quite sinister imo.

If their first word is delusion, then i think its a fair comment.

poor troll from ton. It’s not his first poor troll though. ton is the king of poor troll.

May still be accurate to call them delusional especially if god does not exist. Even if god does exist as they mainly believe in only one god and their then the majority of religious types are wrong and therefore delusional FACT

People’s attachments to imaginary Gods and the flagrantly irrational are diminishing in this country and as a consequence we are seeing significant falls in church attendance. Unfortunately the same cannot be said for other parts of the world across the various denominations. Those young people ton is referring to are no doubt the dwindling products of parental indoctrination – hopefully they will avail themselves of the scientific and philosophical advances made since the first century, outside the purview of their parents, and transcend religious bewilderment.

The word atheist shouldn’t really need to exist. We don’t have names for people that doubt the Mad Hatter’s tea party was an historical event or that Elvis is still alive.

DD………….are you a happy clappy type?

Nail em up

Nail some sense into em

I had the clap…..i was’nt happy.

ton, it’s none of your business. Rest assured though, you’ll be in my prayers if I am.

Some people are into religion, others not. Different people liking different things shocker, thank **** we’re not all the same. After all a bit of religion to cleanse the soul is good, no? And after all you all are, you are souls
Hardly worth comment, is it. 🙄

Mr Woppit – page 302 of ‘Breaking the Spell’ I believe.

don simon………….yet you did.

Can we please keep the conflict off of the thread, people. We are talking about religion here after all.

evangelical atheists! 🙄
How long before they start knocking on our doors

indoctrinate the child and you will have an indoctrinated (wo)man.

Darn it did I miss the gay bashing, n********er bashing, Muslim bashing, lefty bashing, long haired lentil eating layabout bashing thread as well?

Heck seems like bashing religious types is the last bastion of the good ol’ intolerant, ‘you aint like me so I’m goona lynch you from a tree mutha f**a’ good ol boys Klan.

Y’all must be so proud of your hypocrisy.

c u at the pearly gates
