This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Honestly, a former evangelical, now a full on atheist, but I have to say, in a logical standpoint.. belief in hell, and belief that you should mind your own business, seem at odds in a general stance. If you literally believe your god, views non belief as such a crime, that anyone following it deserves to be tortured for all of eternity, it logically follows that you should do everything in your power to convince them otherwise.
The concept of a you do you and not my problem is on par with say... being a die hard trump supporter, going out every week with "mass deportations now" signs. Then going out and grabbing a beer with your undocumented immigrant friends and saying to them "You're a cool guy, lets hang out until ice finds you and gives you what you deserve".
In both situations, it's oppression. There is no other way to look at it. It's no wonder why evangelicals are, by and large, conservatives that support Trump.
