Sometimes the only way to turn the other cheek is with a sledgehammer

I don't know if it's a common thing, but personal experience has shown me that often, the most outward, ardently religious seem to flip out on people who happen to disagree with them and are the biggest hypocrites regarding their own supposed values.

All that Christian Charity must be reserved for an elect group.

It's because they need to actively show they belong to the tribe or they might get ostracized. How else can they do that except by being as loud and obnoxious about their beliefs as possible? They certainly can't do it by keeping their faith to themselves like Jesus suggested or anything.

Well, it was one of the standard arguments used to convert people to Christianity for centuries. It worked well enough back then.

The part that it lacked the implication that it won't happen if Wong were to suddenly find Jesus.

But no, I didn't miss that.

I also think it's a she--the tone in the post made me think of a 400lb trailer park hambeast shrieking at someone in rage.

Maybe the writer hopes that someone shoots ... well, whoever, since they didn't specify "shoots you", just "shoots in face".

Anyway, maybe the writer hopes that someone shoots the unspecified person in face with a shotgun 6 times because they are hoping that the person utilizes some kind of Revolver Shotgun?

Probably during the shotgunning since the adrenaline coursing through your body could easily put you into shock before the blood loss leads to death and you may just happen to have a vision of "jesus" during that time...right before your brain blacks out and anything else becomes moot.

Because for the holier than thou set it's really all about having an excuse to feel superior to people who don't share your values.

Sounds like s/he just happened or was linked to Wong's website, read it, and was so utterly offended by someone daring to have a negative opinion of a shitty book, that she had to spread the love of Christ his way. I, too, am surprised that Wong doesn't get more of these. The fact that someone, somewhere in the world is attacking their world view makes a lot of people react in such a manner.

This type of person usually avoids websites like mine entirely. Sort of like the way jegs2 used to remark about Michael Moore's films and then admitted that he had never seen them and never intended to.

I often wonder if the only reason I even get any fundies reading the site at all is the fact that the site is named "creationtheory.org" and so its domain name might trick someone into thinking that it's pro-creation before they read any of it.

"Stop trying to disprove shit..."

Yeah, how dare you, naughty Mr Wong!! Leave their shit on the sidewalk, all smelly and, well, shitty, for all to see! And smell. And try to avoid stepping in.

This one seems to beyond redemption as a rational thinker let alone correspondent.

No standard engineering POS seems include any "shit about bitch," and Univ. of Waterloo isn't known for offering shit in general. I don't want to point any fingers here, but this is very suspicious.
I don't recall making any arguments concerning "shit about bitch", but if I did, the least he could have done was explain this concern. Really, if he's going to attack someone for not knowing any "shit about bitch", he really needs to explain how "shit about bitch" proves I'm wrong.

I've heard of numerous arguments for the existence of God or the viability of creationism: Pascal's Wager, the Ontological Argument, and of course, Proof Through Faith, but the "Shit About Bitch" argument would seem to fall into an entirely new class.

The "Who Gives a Fuck" counter-argument may not satisfy them. Leave their excreta on the pavement where it will be of interest only to dogs and street cleaners. There is little to argue with should one wish to employ one's intellect.
