Pay no attention to the man behind that veiled curtain...

"I don't know about you but I'd rather be around an honest sinner than a phony Christian any day. To be honest with you, I don't like faux anything. I have almost no tolerance for liars in general and even less for lying so-called Christians. Lies are not compassionate - they are cowardly, crooked and void of any confidence in God or anyone else and have been at the heart of every wicked act since Eve took of the forbidden fruit."

That passage was written by a man named Paul Proctor, and I couldn't agree more.

I work with two phony Christians, and they piss me off on a regular basis. They bring their Bibles to work, youtube sermons to watch at work, and never use cuss words. Meanwhile they pull Casey Anthony's on their fellow employees almost daily. They metaphorically lock them in the trunk while they go about partying, then sometime later, they double bag them and dump them in the woods nearby.

But they don't cuss...and they read their Bibles. Apparently they conveniently skip over James 2:14-18 where he says "I do not object to faith; I object to faith unaccompanied by action".

And that is what most faux religious people get wrong, and they think the rest of us don't notice. Their actions do not mirror their stated beliefs. This is in fact not limited to Christianity alone, it's just easier to point out to Americans in their most common religious orientation.

Muslims who go to the Mosque and pray are not bad people. Muslims who willingly plan to fly planes into large buildings in the name of Allah are. Hebrews who go to the wailing wall while living a normal life are fine by me...it's the ones who start shit in Gaza - knowing it will escalate and cause death and destruction - they're the people we all have to watch out for. The biggest, yes I said BIGGEST, problem in the world today is not faith, it is organized religion and the flawed human beings who practice it.

Don't believe me?

Catholics are brought up in fear...driven by the Mother of all Guantanamo's...the mortal sin. If you do this, it's that kind of sin and your teeth will rot by age 16. If you do that, Locusts will fly up your ass and implode you by age 40. But the mortal sin....ohhhh....fear the mortal sin at all costs. That one is reserved for kids who talk back to their mothers or get a C- in Chemistry. A mortal sin means you're off to hell doomed to forever spend your eternal life in flames and soot. It is designed to make you welcome the Locust-Ass-Implosion, and forever seek counselling for you're imperfect thoughts and deeds...from a Priest...look out if you're a teenage boy. Awwww...didn't like that crack? Prove it isn't true. Go ahead, I'm waiting. Love thy neighbor as thyself evidently means giving blowjobs to altar boys.

The point here is I've known about 4 people in my life that were truly Christian...and you'd never know it. They don't drag the Bible around on a leash...when they hit their finger with a hammer they yell FUCK!!!...and they don't try to recruit you or fill your head with how great and holy they are. These four people I know...get this....they LIVE IT. They're kind, considerate, happy, hard-working, they believe that a broken finger will not be healed by God, rather God placed doctor's on the earth to help them splint the fracture, and they cuss now and then. And screw unashamedly. And occasionally shoot the bull just for fun.

But they are never...ever...ever...faux. Now take that and put it in your sacrificial wine and drink it.
