I think it's interesting how people act on their beliefs. A lot of Christians, for instance, wear crosses around their necks. Nice sentiment, but do you think when Jesus comes back, he's really going to want to look at a cross?

How amazing is it that in 2020 when we can manipulate subatomic particles and know about entanglement and can't exactly explain the physics.

And there are people who believe there was a person that was conceived in a virgin, rose from the dead once, and think there's great odds that a twice dead person will once again be reincarnated. Supporting that theory is the largest tax protected business in the world. I have no problem with anyone's right to believe what they care to believe or join a similar clan. But why in this day and age to we allow business designed to support similar type thought a tax free exemption?
My family has been Christian for over a thousand years. I can't grasp where you came up with the claim of a "twice dead person". Jesus died ONCE. According to Christians he rose from the dead then spent 40 days ministering before ascending to heaven WITH his physical body which doubting Thomas touched. Christians believe that Jesus will return in a chariot of fire and winder unlike his meek entrance some 2,000 years ago. Lots of predictions have been made as to when the Second Coming will occur (and all have been wrong so far); Jesus said that no man knows the hour or day - just the Father.
Religious organizations in the US don't get their tax-exempt status due to their dogma, but because of their charitable works, The First Amendment forbids the government from giving preferential treatment to any one religion. If Christians are allowed to pray at the beginning of Congress sessions, that opportunity must be extended to other religions, too.
Plywood? (Score:5, Funny)
Video shows the four young men chanting "Christ is king" as they tear down the monolith and replace it with a plywood cross.
Plywood? I deserve better than that, you fuckers. I'm not impressed.
