Here are two interesting comments from an AtheistNexus.org discussion on Atheism being bad for Hollywood:

This country is in big trouble, period.  Even moderates seem to be so frightened of the hard core CRASStians, that they just sit on their hands and do nothing. Or give in to their unreasonable demands.
The un-funny thing is that these CRASStians don't seem to understand their own buybull...or they are reading one of the newer versions that has more interpolations and errors in translation than the KJV.
And I will keep on calling them "CRASStians" (or CRAZEtians") until they sit down and STFU.  ie: forever.
My sister has been a JeeHoover's Witless for more than 45 years, and she knows more about the actual buybull (but won't admit that most of it is fiction) than the loud-mouthed Dominionists and other fundaMENTALists who are trying to take over not only the entertainment industry, but lawmaking, medicine, and everything else...including fast food joints.
Sometimes I wish the "rapture" fantasy would come true, then we'd be rid of the yokels.

sk8eycat, recent studies prove beyond question that most atheists know the Buy Bull better than the average Christer. The old saying, "Familiarity breeds contempt" is at play, since the more one knows about religulous texts the more one becomes aware how illogical, inconsistent, contradictory, &c. they are. When a Witness or Mormon comes to my door I ask them, "Did God destroy Sodom because of homosexuality?" They nod and say yes, yes, yes. Then I ask, "Did God turn Lot's wife into a pillar of salt for looking back on Sodom?" Same reaction. Then I ask, "Did God help Lot relocate somewhere else and then direct Lot's daughters to have sex with their father?" They look at each other blankly, then beg off and leave my doorsteps.

I can't do that; I have to live with my JW sister, but she knows what I think about the buybull, and we just don't discuss religion.  Much.  I think it's funny that she considers the El-Ronners a cult, but not her own strange beliefs. (I also think she has Asperger's; she has been strange and awkward since infancy, and she shows all the traits, but there's no way I can get her to see a neuro-psych specialist for a diagnosis.  And it's much too late, anyway.)

Sk8eycat's autistic sister may be a Jehovah's Witness and may know a lot about what is written in the Bible, but how much does she know about actual Biblical history? James M. Martin asks the JW's and Mormon missionaries when they come to his door if Yahweh destroyed Sodom because of homosexuality. They tell him yes, but have no reaction when he mentions the part where Lot's two daughters get their father drunk and have sex with him. I don't believe the Sodom story was real and Yahweh would have no reason to destroy Sodom, Gomorrah or any of those other cities because of homosexuality as gay sex doesn't hurt anyone. The support that JW's and Mormons give to such a abhorrent story proves that their denominations are homophobic and hypocritical.  The JW's are just as cult-like as the El-Ronners and it is too bad that sk8eycat get her sister to see a specialist over her issues. JW's are not fond of psychology.
