B-b-but what's stopping you from cursing and drinking if you don't believe in god?
That same little voice in my head that tells me I should bite babies and squeeze puppies because it'll make them cuter. Oh my god, do you think that's God?! I should probably start following through with cute aggression! Unless it's not God, which means... Fuck you, I'm gonna get drunk at this funeral!
If god didn't want me to nosh on baby toes, why did he make them look so damn noshable? In this Ted talk, I'll explain why cannibalism is a divine mandate, based on...
Honestly pretty good time to get drunk.
Reminds me of the christian apologist that said he would rape and murder if god didn't exist, since there wouldn't be any consequences
If the threat of eternal torture is the only thing keeping you from murdering and raping then you just might be an absolutely horrible person
If it takes threats of eternal suffering to force you to a good person, you’re not a good person
Is not drinking part of the bible? Jesus literally has a whole story where a party runs out of booze so he uses his heavenly powers to make multiple buckets of booze to keep the buzz rolling ..
He's also nice to poor people and sex workers. That woke fucking heretic.
I curse and drink as much as I want to!
Which is a lot, and not a lot any more, respectively.
Curiously, I stopped cursing by hanging around with my wife's kids, who took expletives seriously.
And I don't drink because it makes me feel cruddy.

Holy quadruplicate post, Batman!
Yeah, I think the problem is upstream, either with Blåhaj Lemmy or higher.
But I've been getting a lot of failure-to-post errors.
It's amazing how often people say dumb stuff like that.
And, by the way, I don't actually have any issue with cussing and drinking. I was a manager at a conservative company for a long time, so cussing just because something that isn't a default, and alcohol doesn't seem to do any of the fun stuff for me like it does for other people (no buzz, no relaxation, no reduced inhibitions), so it's just not something I'm drawn to.
