21. Ah, No Better Way To Talk To People

Thu Aug 2, 2012, 07:04 PM

Aug 2012

Via sophomoric name calling and insisting that they believe in "magic invisible cloud-daddies" is bound to fix that.

Maybe you're missing my point: When someone calls me a "socialist" for espousing my thoughts on health care, I don't shrink and deny deny deny, I ask them questions about what they believe and demonstrate how I arrived at my thoughts on the matter.

When someone says I believe in "magic invisible cloud-daddies," I just shake my head and wonder if they realize religion isn't just televangelists and suicide bombers. Just as some Republicans seem bent on believing liberals want to take away their guns and turn their children into queers.
