And thats why i hate you.

currently where i live, it takes me about an hour to commute to my office. I have to take a bus. its not bad at all; get the paper, its air conditioned, put my headphones in…sometimes i just go to sleep. Then bingo…at work. but the other day i saw something that i personally have not seen before on a bus. a woman was handing out literature about whatever god she happened to believe in at the time.

now dont get me wrong. if people want to post up in public areas and hand out pamphlets to people that would like to accept them, then go for it!!! (although i do think thats a stupid idea as a whole since they are handing out booklets about religions that everyone on this fucking planet, not to mention a major metropolitan area, has heard of…its not something new and magical. if i was interested in your religion, id come and get info about it on my own).

so this bitch is walking down the bus as we are moving along asking people if they want her book. I have my earphones in and my shades on so i pretend to be asleep. she shakes me, literally puts her hands on my shoulder and shakes me “awake”, and then holds up the book and asks me if i want a copy.

fuck you. and fuck no.

I AM ON A FRIGGIN BUS! what can i do? where can i go? in a public area i can just keep walking, but this bitch is just harassing and asking everyone. if i wanted your book, id hit you with a brick and take it.

and thats why i hate all people who feel the need to force THEIR religion down the throats of everyone around them. seriously…dont you have a job or something? maybe some kids to take care of? anything other then trying to get people to convert to your religion? is there some incentive program where you get prizes based on the number of converts? LEST WE FORGET THAT HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS (thats not a typo…millions) OF PEOPLE HAVE BEEN KILLED BECAUSE THEY REFUSED TO CONVERT TO SOMEONE ELSE’S BELIEF SYSTEM?!?!

–M–

ps…according to scientists, the number of recorded murders in the history of man is thought to be around 284,638,000(R.J. Rummel). 151,491,000 have been in the last 100 years. If you add together ONLY those killed from nazi germany, nationalist china, and atheistic communism, it totals roughly 141,160,000. thats 49.59%!!! practically 50% of all people murdered in the history of the world happened in the last 100 years under regimes who were “our way or death” as far as religion is concerned (and that doesnt even count the deaths from the crusades of the middle ages, the spanish inquisition, or the various witch trials held throughout the world). fail.
