Yep I'm definitely going to hell for laughing so hard at this. (imgur.com)

If you're going to hell for that I'm really screwed...
Me and my family were taking down the tree fort me and my brother had as kids. There was two pieces of wood screwed together in the shape of a cross. I picked it up and started walking with it saying things like "Hey guys this is really heavy, Hey Simon can you come help me".
Then I stepped on stray nail that went through my shoe into my foot. I had to go to the doctor to get a tetanus shot.

true story
[–]RichardPeterJohnson 1 point2 points3 points 6 months ago
Looks as if the artist correctly drew the nails through the wrists.
[–]varemia 1 point2 points3 points 6 months ago
It varied between wrists and hands. They used the hands with the wrists tied to the wood with cord if they wanted to induce more torture.
[–]executex 1 point2 points3 points 6 months ago
Yes that is correct way to crucify. However, I think it's odd that people think the "son of God" would allow himself to be so easily killed by nails.
So then Christians say, "well he could have broken free, but he suffered for our sins"---well if he's god, then he doesn't feel pain. Not to mention, God claimed that the things humans do ARE sins in the first place.
It just doesn't make a single shred of sense.
[–]american_history_x 1 point2 points3 points 6 months ago
Looks like you are showing first signs of reason and logic. And yes, religion cannot be understood by reason. And you should not even try, because you will get terribly confused. Religious people themselves admit this problem by saying that you need to have faith to understand things. Religion if for brain-dead!
[–]teamhex 7 points8 points9 points 6 months ago

[–]misterraider 5 points6 points7 points 6 months ago
The Romans did crucify people.
[–]ahorseinasuit 3 points4 points5 points 6 months ago
"But apart from the sanitation, the medicine, education, viniculture, public order, irrigation, roads, the fresh-water system, and public health, what have the Romans ever done for us?"
"Brought peace?"
"Oh, peace? SHUT UP!"
[–]Siverix 1 point2 points3 points 6 months ago
Romans took half of those things from Greeks and Egyptians.

[–]teamhex 3 points4 points5 points 6 months ago
I'm talking about Jesus dude not the fact that Romans did that. I think it's a well established fact that the Romans were pretty cruel.
[–]Forscyvus 0 points1 point2 points 6 months ago
there wasnt an implication of existance. For a roman crucifixion involving nails, they go through the wrists. It was accurate in that regard.
[–]MinisterOfTheDog 1 point2 points3 points 6 months ago*
Sure, but normally they didn't nail them. I might be wrong.
According to Wikipedia, both tying and nailing were common practices.
[–]sven_7 1 point2 points3 points 6 months ago
nails were a part of crucifixion. not sure where you got your info.
[–]the_penultimate_user 0 points1 point2 points 6 months ago
Ropes were used when nails couldn't be. Like if they couldn't find any or they had to be used somewhere else.
Or if the subject would have died because of the nails,such as if they were already bleeding and the nails would make them bleed out before the full effect of the torture could be experienced.
Also if the executioner or torturer wasn't skilled enough to cleanly make the puncture without killing the victim.
[–]ironikmau5 4 points5 points6 points 6 months ago
Are you serious?
Yes
LOL, how retarded are you people? To the moron saying I said Romans never existed....really dude....don't straw man we with something that stupid. They did indeed exist and did indeed crucify people. That doesn't mean Jesus existed.

When criticized for blaspheming as an atheist, I usually respond with "its an expression, like 'mind your own fucking business'. Also, because I don't actually believe I'm calling down the curses of the gods, its not actually blaspheming. And even if you think it is, I don't believe in your gods, so why the fuck would I care?"

And thou Richard Dawkins said in his three-hundred and ninety-fourth page of his ninth Sacred Text, "The God Delusion";
a girl, had a 'little purple man', who seemed to her a real and visible presence, and who would manifest himself, sparkling out of the air, with a gentle tinkling sound. He visited her regularly, especially when she felt lonely, but with decreasing frequency as she grew older. On a particular day just before she went to kindergarten, the little purple man came to her, heralded by his usual tinkling fanfare, and announced that he would not be visiting her any more.
And as it is written it is so.
All hail the mighty Dawkins.
[–]punnymoniker -4 points-3 points-2 points 6 months ago
Even though Jesus is the figure head of the Christian faith, that does not mean that he still was not a human, and a very decent one at that. Regardless of what you think of him, he still was a very moral person, and a good teacher to all of us. He has probably been the most influential person in modern history, and has helped us develop a better social system than what was previous to ours. That being said, he was tortured and put to death in a very inhumane way, and represents a time of the past that he has helped pull us out of. I am an agnostic Athiest, but I still see the greatness he has done. Make fun of religious dogma all you please but don't insult what this man has done.
[–]Wolf_Protagonist 17 points18 points19 points 6 months ago
Actually, quite a bit of evidence suggests that "Jesus" the mortal man and historical figure may have been a myth. Or he may have been based of several different men.
Yeah, some of the stuff he (supposedly) said was ok, some of it wasn't. He wasn't a God after all.
That being said, this is a joke. Lighten up.
[–]riddit1 5 points6 points7 points 6 months ago
He is Great alright. for 2000 years heinous crimes have been committed in His name. And you can't say it's not his fault. you don't see Buddhists killing non-Buddhists or each other in the name of Buddha. It is rotten at the core, Your Greatness!
[–]CheapPhrase 1 point2 points3 points 6 months ago
Moral is just a word, and completely in the eye of the beholder. Even influence on history, Jesus or Dawkins, is all completely ambiguous.
[–]kilgoretrout912 2 points3 points4 points 6 months ago
Or he didn't exist at all. There's practically zero non-biblical corroboration.
[–]SerJory 0 points1 point2 points 6 months ago
This may be true to a certain extent, but I think this guy gives a pretty good argument for a historical Jesus.

I'm not one to celebrate death. I wasn't one of the crazies in the street when Osama died, or Hussein. I don't care. But if you can't have a sense of humor about something small like this, just relax. It wasn't just Jesus who died this way, it was tons of people. Joking about death makes the inevitable easier to deal with for people. Fuck you.
Fuck me? FUCK ME??? You fucking wish bud. But seriously, I have a sense of humor, and I completely see the humor in this, I just find it inappropriate.
Wah. Get off Reddit then.
MAKE ME. fucker. Let people voice their opinion without being a faggot.
[–]Submitted2State 0 points1 point2 points 6 months ago
I was programed to defend that Jesus existed too. It was hard to let go of defending those ideas.
Get off the Jesus made morals better and that he was a real guy. That is just untrue and it's a cop-out. Many cultures have similar morals. Jesus also told people to abandon their families to follow him. Being a father myself, that is just ridiculous to think I should abandon my daughter because she'd be a bad influence on my faith. The story of Jesus has many other moral flaws.Skeptics Bible.

I don't really agree with the bit about Jesus being a nice guy. I think he was probably a delusional con-man if he existed at all.
Having said that, these are the kinds of posts that make r/atheism look bad. It's not intellectual and it's clearly anti-christian for no justifiable reason. This post is bigotry in my opinion.
I support the author's and OP's right to free speech, but I don't think we'll be converting any christians or winning people's hearts and minds with content like this.

Please tell us more about what atheism should be about :)
I think the image is a poor joke, but not because it's disrespectful... just because it's not funny to me...

Oh! Pointing people to the FAQ that they should have read before posting so as not to waste the community's time? You're awesome. :D
[–]ratebeer 0 points1 point2 points 6 months ago
Groupthink weakens the community. I don't care what the FAQ says, I'll still do my part to encourage others to become a stronger community by defining themselves through positive ideas. Without reason, logic, science and facts we are nothing more than a cult ourselves.
Teach good thinking and you teach a "natural" atheism. Shortcut with emotion and nasty images and you've hurt the cause by building up defenses to the strongest ideas against a god.
I dislike posts like this because they're cheap, anti-intellectual pot shots that work against the goals of organized opponents to religion. You might not care, but realize that it takes a lot of effort to build and little effort to destroy. You're making things harder for people who care about atheism at the social and political levels.

Curious about your country of origin. In the US christianity is rammed down our throats and the idea of god divinely working in our country and its history is practically taught in schools. This reaction is normally considering the circumstances. A way to break out regularly if you will.
It's still no excuse to be a douche, right?
[–]konquererz 0 points1 point2 points 6 months ago
You know, I have heard this argument and out side our little circle jerk subreddit I would agree. Telling people who have been talked down to by most of this country for so long to STFU and be nice and kind all the time is asking a lot. What ever you think it your given job to do telling other people this, its not, not in this context. See it outside of this? In IRL? maybe. But we did no substitute adherence to someone elses moral authority to submit to another persons moral values. The thing is that atheism is about making your own way. You mentioned group think in that it weakens the community while saying you need to teach good thinking. You aren't doing anything different except your group think is deliberately pushed.
You can only be told to burn in hell and have your kids not allowed to play with others and remain silent for so long. Sometime somewhere its gonna come out. If you haven't experienced that then great. But many of us have. If you can't understand that and where the anger comes from then I really can't help you, you just need to try and understand a bit better.
I understand that Christians can make things oppressive and awful. I also understand the negative emotion involved. It can run quite deep, especially considering a lot of the historic and current newsworthy crimes Christians have perpetrated.
There is a qualitative difference between Groupthink and independent Reason though. Groupthink is a shortcut through reason -- an emotionally propelled action based on mere bias and aided by an individual need for social adherence. I place more trust in an individual exercising reason and good judgement.
While emotional expression has its place, often a lack of emotional control is the cause of many social problems. In this case, we see people from r/Christianity visiting and even converting sometimes. Good relations are only going to help the cause.
Antisocial behavior is easy. It's easy to piss people off, to harm relationships, lack consideration, forethought, planning and responsibility.
It might be time to splinter off a group that ridicules religion?
Perhaps so. The outlet is necessary else it will spill out anywhere. Its worth discussing.

You're right. It should be about disrespect for all dogmatic, unsubstantiated, totalitarian worldviews.
