shootinstudent,

BigJake's point really did go over your head.  If you look at Tecumseh's other posts, you'll see he is quite open in his contempt for religion, Christian or otherwise, and his rejection of same.  He seems to use his "Christian upbringing" (and I'll assume he had one), as a way to point out the alleged hypocrisy of conservatives and/or Christians. 

Talk of "making lil Baby Jesus cry" is stock rhetoric for poking fun at Christians.

Not surprising.  Secular humanism is the best a fallen world can do.

As usual, you miss the point, as it sails about 30000 feet over your pointy head.

So true.  laugh

Bigjake is on the roll today.

I wonder if poking fun at Muslims would be so well tolerated?
Personally, I do not understand how a bunch of people demanding a bigger govt can call themselves anarchist.
I meet lots of folks like this, claim to be anarchist but really they're just liberals with pierced genitals. - gunsmith

Bobby Fischer is proof that pure brainpower does not equate to wisdom or insight--a point that the Al-Gore-Is-God crowd seem to keep missing.

More so, likely. 

And who is tolerating making fun of Christians? From this thread, it looked like Bigjake was the one doing that, and that's what I was responding to.  I don't know what else Tecumseh has said about Christians, so while fistful gives some context, on this thread, all I see is Bigjake pouncing on someone for mentioning his Christian upbringing.
"Human existence being an hallucination containing in itself the secondary hallucinations of day and night (the latter an insanitary condition of the atmosphere due to accretions of black air) it ill becomes any man of sense to be concerned at the illusory approach of the supreme hallucination known as death."

With a response like that, it's small wonder Idiots are a protected species.  It's a good thing concerned citizens like yourself police the place  rolleyes

And, if you would've bothered to read any of what I posted, You would have seen an exact quote of what we were talking about.

Wow.

A religious pissing match on APS, emanating from a non-related thread.

There's even a reference to Idiots being a protected species, thinly veiled, of course.

Who would'a thunk it?  rolleyes

Next.
