QUESTIONS TO ASK YOUR CHRISTIAN FRIENDS

  1. Why did the Christian god wait millennia to send a savior?
  2. Why was your god born Hebrew instead of "unaffiliated"?
  3. Why the need for a virgin mom? Does your god think sex is that "dirty"?
  4. Your god evidently can only forgive by requiring a human sacrifice, and of his own son at that! Why's that?
  5. What's with the "three-in-one bit"? And did you know there's a household oil with that name?
  6. Why would a 33 year old Jewish guy be still unmarried and hanging almost exclusively with twelve young men? Just asking?
  7. Why do you think god had his "word" written down in Biblical Hebrew, with some portions written in Biblical Aramaic? Wouldn't a god publish his "word" in all languages (present and future) in order to avoid confusion and human modifications during subsequent translations?
  8. Is Jesus a big copycat . . . seeing that, for millennia before he came on the scene, gods created by humans were also said to be born of virgins, were parts of trinities, had a star announce their arrivals, were born on December 25th, and were miraculously resurrected on the third day following their deaths?
  9. Was Jesus a cannibal? What's with the"this is my body, this is my blood . . . so eat me stuff"? This is great question for Catholics who are supposed to believe the communion host is the actual body and blood of Jesus!
  10. If the devil is so powerful, why isn't he proclaimed a god, too? Why did your god get top billing?
  11. If multiply married humans end up in heaven, which earthly spouse do they hang out with for eternity . . . or do they all become part of a celestial menage? Herbie, am I with you or Joe today?
  12. Are you bothered by the fact that the old term for the "holy spirit" used to be the "holy ghost"? Boo! Who you gonna call?

These inane questions could go on and on. I've tried a few on Christian acquaintances, and the answers I received are the ones they obviously learned by rote at their pastor's knee. The usual answers make no sense, of course, just like the whole Christian story itself. 😕

If God were straight forward like Oz.

  1. Pope change it to Aliens

  2. I choose Jews, to hell with the rest of you.

  3. That was two questions.
    1.How esle can I call him my son
    2.Christian marriage is clean sex, if you want to go to heaven, love me first.

  4. I miss him in heaven and he is my son. A symbol to sacrifice your soul for me.

  5. I invented majic mushrooms and cannabis that did the trick.

  6. Life expectancy was age 25, Jesus was old and the 12 were middle aged.

  7. You have to have total faith in me. Next question.

  8. They all copied me.

  9. Since I made everything your always eating me.

10.You asking too many technology guestions, are you Satan's spy?
11. Every one is my children in heaven especially Christians. We are one extremly happy orgy family.
12. Just call me, I own all the spiritual spirits.

Ask silly questions, you get silly answers.
Final answer is you just got to have faith.

Answers... All tongue in cheek.

  1. God was tired after creating Earth. Which is how Jesus got his name... "Jesus H. Christ I'm tired!"

  2. The Jews starting early controlling everything that is ascribed to them.

  3. Mary was 14. The first recorded case of "Dint do nothin!" She needed some sort of story!

  4. Jesus stayed out WAY too late one night! God is a ROUGH parent!

  5. Each according to their need. Make up the stuff in between.

  6. Jesus had an ass and that is all you need to know! Mmmmkay?

  7. See #2

  8. Hey... If it worked before, it will work again. But THIS time we're going to make it more grand with Christians fed to lions in the coliseum!

  9. Everyone needs a snack. Jesus goes quite well when paired with a 15% Mead!

  10. Because! That's why!

  11. It depends on who prays harder... C'mon, that was too easy!

  12. I ain't afraid of no ghost!

I couldn’t stand to ask any of these questions. If an idiot still believes in the sky fairy in 2019, I have no use for them.

I like to respond to religious posting by my family on Facebook. Lately I've been backing off a bit, but I sometimes get pulled in and can't resist. I don't think I'll ever change their minds, but you never know who may be reading it, and might start to question what they believe. But mostly I do it because whatever it is that they've posted is just to insane to get away without questioning.
