Top 10 Signs You Are a Fundamentalist Christian
Very funny considering all the stuff bouncing around in the news today...


10 - You vigorously deny the existence of thousands of gods
claimed by other religions, but feel outraged when someone
denies the existence of your god.
<br>
9 - You feel insulted and "dehumanized" when
scientists say that people evolved from lesser life forms,
but you have no problem with the Biblical claim that we were
created from dirt.
<br>
8 - You laugh at polytheists, but you have no problem believing
in a Trinity god.
<br>
7 - Your face turns purple when you hear of the "atrocities"
attributed to Allah, but you don't even flinch when
hearing about how God/Jehovah slaughtered all the babies
of Egypt in "Exodus" and ordered the elimination
of entire ethnic groups in "Joshua" - including
women, children, and trees!
<br>
6 - You laugh at Hindu beliefs that deify humans, and Greek
claims about gods sleeping with women, but you have no problem
believing that the Holy Spirit impregnated Mary, who then
gave birth to a man-god who got killed, came back to life
and then ascended into the sky.
<br>
5 - You are willing to spend your life looking for little
loop-holes in the scientifically established age of the
Earth (4.55 billion years), but you find nothing wrong
with believing dates recorded by pre-historic tribesmen
sitting in their tents and guessing that the Earth is a couple
of generations old.
<br>
4 - You believe that the entire population of this planet
with the exception of those who share your beliefs -- though
excluding those in all rival sects -- will spend Eternity
in an infinite Hell of Suffering. And yet you consider your
religion the most "tolerant" and "loving".

<br>
3 - While modern science, history, geology, biology, and
physics have failed to convince you otherwise, some idiot
rolling around on the floor speaking in "tongues"
may be all the evidence you need to prove Christianity.

<br>
2 - You define 0.01% as a "high success rate"
when it comes to answered prayers. You consider that to
be evidence that prayer works. And you think that the remaining
99.99% FAILURE was simply the will of God.
<br>
1 - You actually know a lot less than many Atheists and Agnostics
do about the Bible, Christianity, and church history -
but still call yourself a Christian.
