The arogance of youth is something I find utterly disdainful... we're all such idiots when we're young. [Spirituality & Religion]

I watch this show called The Big Questions on BBC1 most Sunday mornings. It's hosted by Nicky Campbell. He & the audience discuss important issues around society & faith. This morning one of the questions was 'is death easier if your u believe in God'

After one lady who is dying of cancer spoke so beautifully about her faith, & another spoke eloquently of her humanist beliefs up pops this spotty little imbecile who's only contribution was to say that anyone who has faith is deluded, while parroting Dawkins. The bloody cringe!

Lock them all in a cupboard till they're thirty. It's the only way around it I reckon.

@kingkyrie: then we need to come up with a new word for setting off PTSD flashbacks, which is what it's supposed to mean. You know, like when you were molested by your doctor when you were 10 and now you flip out in medical settings and can't be around people who look like him.

@crossproduct: I wasn't talking about personal experiences, but about general experiences.

@kingkyrie: somehow the meaning seems to have drifted to meaning pissed-off or offended or something

@kingkyrie: it's not your fault, it's the SJWs who devalued the term
