The Crazy Fundamentalists Were Shouting Their Nuttiness on Campus Today


          Well, look at the nutjobs who were in the middle of my University campus the last couple days. These guys looked like Christians from the far nutjobiest end of the Christian spectrum. I had headphones in my ears and was running late for a class, so I didn't have any time to stop. I just snapped a couple pictures as I passed by. But I could hear this guy from a block away, shouting fire and brimstone and hellfire. However, I was glad to see that there were other students there who were telling him how full of shit he was.
          I looked up this guy's website. He calls himself Brother Jed, and he's been doing this for 30 years, preaching on college campuses. It sure is sad, in my opinion, when someone spends so many years telling everyone that they're going to hell and preaching this hateful type of message when there is so much joy in life that they are missing out on. It's just sad that people can be this demented. You can search "Brother Jed" on YouTube and find plenty of his craziness. I do think it is pretty funny that, although you probably can't see it in the picture above, that little blue bumper sticker on the leather bag is a "Palin 2012" sticker. It's fitting, wouldn't you say?

          I must say that a person has to be pretty twisted if they think that we all deserve to be burned and tortured forever in pain because of such trivial things. And, to devote your life to preaching such hatred is an utter waste.
          I don't care if someone believes in something utterly stupid, or even if they waste their life on it, even if I think it's a waste and they're missing out on reality. However, I do take offense when they tell me that they think that I deserve to be burned and tortured forever for not agreeing with them.

  1. I find several things funny and a bit disturbing about him and similar groups. First, his sign lists pagans, liars, and hypocrites as non-Christian when Christianity has a large pagan background and as far as lying and hypocrisy...That seems to be a big part of religion.
    Socialists? I thought Christianity taught that we should all help each other and share our wealth, which is sort of the idea of socialism.
    This is basically a list of things this guy personally does not like. The next person to come along might have a different list of what he or she considers a Christian to be and so on and so on. Thanks for posting this.

  3. @ Greg Serfling-

    Yeah, the Jesus character in the christian bible seems to be a super socialist, ha ha ha. So I'm pretty sure that, by this guy's definition. If the bible character is based on an actual guy, he would have deserved to burn in hell.

    "This is basically a list of things this guy personally does not like. The next person to come along might have a different list of what he or she considers a Christian to be and so on and so on."

    Yeah, and that's basically what all Christians do...pick the things they like out of the bible, and imagine the rest doesn't exist.

  4. WTF is a music idolator? LOL
    OMG, I fit several categories on his list! I guess I should make my reservations now. Can you get reward points for travel to & accomodations in hell?
