The problem is that the joke is old and isn't interesting. It's like talking about weather and then claiming you're Oscar Wilde.
Person: "Hey, aren't religious people wacky?"
*Crickets*
I’m not apathetic about religious people because unfortunately they continue to occupy positions of authority in our society.
If religious people were actually dismissed in the way you describe I could understand your perspective. They are not mocked liked this though and are very much taken seriously.
No need to pick on religious people in this case. There are plenty of people with various character flaws in positions of power / authority.
So you don't know about:
Notably those examples make absolutely no difference on how religious people in authority positions frequently use their religion to guide how they use their authority (which ain't fucking cool)
Yup, I've heard this one before as well. Got anything new to add to the discussion?
Someones upset their church is only 95% in charge
You lost me at "their church".
I can use whatever word for church you want, bud, theyre all the same thing with a different title. Temple, parish, mosque, its all big rooms with a speaking spot up front
Do you? Your only replies are just you being shocked nobody agrees with you.
You okay, bro? You seem upset.
