Easily offended

January 16th, 2009 § 2 comments

BBC:

A Christian bus driver has refused to drive a bus with an atheist slogan proclaiming “There’s probably no God”.

Ron Heather, from Southampton, Hampshire, responded with “shock” and “horror” at the message and walked out of his shift on Saturday in protest.

You small minded, petty, shit stirring little fucker.
How the fuck did you, Mr Heather, get through to the ripe old age that you have by being shocked and horrorfied by statements that differ from your opinion?

“I felt that I could not drive that bus, I told my managers and they said they haven’t got another one and I thought I better go home, so I did.
Mr Heather said he was shocked at the “starkness” of the advert

“I think it was the starkness of this advert which implied there was no God.”

Starkness? Fucking Starkness? You Ron, I can call you Ron, can’t I? I feel I know you so well already, are a twat. That is not a stark message. It’s not even asserting for definate that there isn’t a god. It’s saying that there’s a possibility there is no god. If that message was said to you by a person, that person would be looking at their feet, shuffling nervously and mumbling under their breath.

Do you stop non-christians from travelling on your bus, incase they turn believers away from the one true faith? Do you think that the anti-god message is going to leave you a sitting duck for the anti-christ? Once you’ve left the bus station the evil sprirts will think you’re one of them and take control? You’ll lose you sense of moral decency and stop buying the Mail for the Guardian and start voting LibDem?

Let me reassure you, Ronny, about what will happen if you drive that bus:
You will drive it out of the bus station, some people will get on, some people will get off. Some people will see the advert and think “heh”. Others will think “hrumph”. Most others will not even notice it. You will return the bus to the station and go home to await the next thing to offend you. The world will carry on as it was before, not having had Lucifer unleashed on us all.

I am just flabbergasted that someone can be so fucking precious that a statement so unsure of itself can give theman excuse to fuck off home in a sulk.

You’re not offended, Ron. You’re just workshy, aren’t you.

    I’d tell the guy that if he did that again, his arse would be fired.

    The whole thing of getting a pass based on religion is just fucking nuts. Hindus say that you can’t eat beef, Catholics no meat on a Friday, Judaism and Islam – no pork. So, someone out there is wrong/misheard/lying. As we accept religions that are plainly wrong, we accept that there is no evidence base required. Therefore, you can just put anything you like in there. “The lord came down and said that I need to always have a calendar near where I toil, and that said calendar should have blonde women in swimsuits upon it”. Is that any less ridiculous than “despite God creating creatures of the sea that are nutritious and taste good, especially with a little garlic and butter, and which pose little risk to health, they’re forbidden, but God didn’t point out why”?*

    *I tend to think that most of this stuff was written down because of serious health problems of not preparing/keeping shellfish properly, and because no-one knew the science of bacteria, just kept it simple as “god said not to”.

  • Very funny Sim-O, a deserved ire-laden rant at a total tit, have you seen the picture of the smug twat?

    You can just tell what a nob he is, this has also opened the floodgates to anyone having a day off becuase they disagree with an advert on their bus.
