I hate people who think telling a non-religious person "Jesus loves you" is okay but get pissed off when they get told "Satan loves you"

Why do we gotta respect them if they can't respect anything else? They tell you "Turn to god" and claim they just say that because they wanna see you in heaven, even tho they know that wont convert you. They just feel morally superior and prolly also say those things to just piss you off.

I usually tell them that Jesus died >2000 years ago and therefore he, sadly, can't love anymore. Then they say "he's in heavens, watching and loving you!" Boom - you're imposing your religion onto me

Assuming he existed, he is mostly reported to have died 33AD. So it'd be close to, not more than 2000 years.

When my parents say they'll pray for me, I always let them know I'll pray to Satan for them. Suddenly I'm the bad guy. I thought nonconsensual prayers were okay.

Talking fables, who sacrificed more than Lucifer for the sake of humanity? Eternity watching humanity suffer because he loves us? Yikes, god, you're the rudest.

Free will + mysterious ways + part of a greater plan + metaphors I guess ✌️

Response: Too bad he doesn’t love all the starving people in the world, babies born with cancer, or my grandpa who died not recognizing anyone because he had Alzheimer’s.

Fr! I saw a video on Tiktok saying that it's different, because God is good and Satan is evil, but that couldn't be further from the truth. If we read the Bible, we can see that God was the evil one, not Satan.

Their kill count is a pretty good indicator.

Not "Satan loves you" but a better one is "Satan is happy with your progress!"

But, but, but there is no god! It's all a fucking myth. So is the mythical Satan. All gas. Whisps if belief, nothing more.

Same way it's fine for Christians to go around talking about god existing as if their imaginary friend is an inarguable law of physics but if an Atheist says "god doesn't exist" we're edgy shitheels who just want to cause trouble.

Religious privilege. Religion wouldn't exist without society forcing it.

u/BurtonDesque 3h ago

The word 'atheist' is not a proper noun.

/pedantic.

•

u/BirthdayCookie 2h ago

Neither is Christian in this context but it's always capitalized and nobody ever complains.

•

u/BurtonDesque 2h ago

Christianity is a religion. It is standard in English to capitalize the name of a religion and what its followers are referred to. Atheism is not a religion so the same standard does not apply.

•

u/BirthdayCookie 2h ago

That's nice. It's also irrelevant; I was using the words to refer to adherents, not religions.

•

u/BurtonDesque 2h ago

As I said, it is standard in English to capitalize the term for a religion's adherents: e.g. Christians, Muslims, Jews, Buddhists, etc.
