typical god-botherers......sitting silently in judgement, refusing to help someone who could easily have cracked his head and died and finding the whole thing hilarious... aren't jesus freaks meant to be compassionate? oh, wait....that's atheists
Banjax I find your language highly offensive... firstly you're assuming that because somebody has rosary beads on their rear view mirror that they are Christian? It's most unlikely... people these day's often (wrongly) use rosary beads as fashion items. Lots of gang members in my area wear them & I don't see them at Church on Sunday. Everyone is entitled their own opinion regarding religious beliefs but your comments seem to be more of an unsolicited attack on Christianity than a view. Why would you refer to those recognise the divinity of Christ as "Jesus freaks" and who are you calling "God-botherers" just Christians or do you mean Jews & Muslims too? If these idiots in the car had a star of david pendant hanging from the mirror would come on the forum making anti-semetic remarks? or how about Islamic prayer beads... would you make such remarks about the prophet muhammed? Banjax your comments have nothing to do with the thread & might be considered hate crime? I would know because I'm married to a police officer... for your reference I am a Christian (obviously) and for 15 years devoted my life to emergency medicine... so I don't know where you get off making such remarks, regards, steve.
p.s. if members post jokes on OOF that others find offensive thats a different matter. you have simply hijacked the thread to insult people.
I'm afraid that Banjax is a militant atheist and is offensive to anyone who has a spiritual belief. I can understand people being against radical religious fervour, through which different faiths use their allegiance to attack others but, for me, I live by the tenet of each to his/her own.
Of course, you don't need two GCSEs to realise that the atheism he practices mimics religious extremism. He deplores anyone who has a faith and constantly tries to undermine them.
Sad really.

Don't be too offended, though. I, too, am a Christian. I have friends who have different faiths, but mine serves me well. As I said: each to his/her own.
