How it works:

Extraordinary things can happen when we ask extraordinary questions. This blog asks extraordinary questions in the form of outlandish statements. Sometimes I believe what I've posted. Sometimes I don't. This is not a blog about my political, religious, or philosophical views. It's a blog about thinking in different boxes or outside of the box altogether. Have fun. BRING FRIENDS!

Premise the 54th- Lion Kibble

Premise: I get tired of religious people using their Bibles (specifically John 15:18-21) as vehicle for smugness when people speak out against them for their hypocrisy and moralistic vitriol.

Unless someone is making them wrestle hungry lions to the death, in the midst of a crowd of people pulling for the lions, they should really shut their faces about how they expect such "persecution" because the Bible says that when people find you to be an asshole in the name of your God, that you are somehow blessed. Sometimes, god or no god, an asshole is just an asshole.


Assignment: Argue for or against the merits of this premise, using logic, sound reasoning, and where possible, citations (links) to back up your arguments.)

Caveat: You need not take the side that you actually believe. Sometimes arguing the other side is more fun.

GO!
