Can't joke with religious people?

Damn man, I just texted a friend who is a christian and I jokingly said "this godless human loves you". I was just saying hello. What do I get? a mile of texts that haven't stopped yet as i type. All bible verses and links. I was told I have a heart of stone and god can fix it. This is sad.

I should have known better. Really.

I suspect this guy has a secret that is killing him and he screams how he is so in touch with god all the time as a way to throw people off. Seen it before. I could be wrong and really hope I am. Hes going through a hard time as well so maybe thats all it is. Still pretty offensive.
 
I suspect that even if this person was not religious, they still wouldn't respond to the joke in an enjoyable manner.

Dude...you told him that you love him. Of course he's freaking out.
 
They're going to heaven and you're going to hell you goddamn atheist heathen, joke's on you!
 
Anybody who has strong belief in religion or political our whatever should never be joked with, you can get hurt... their brain in closed to logic when it comes to the item of their belief...

Why didn't you just text "This human loves you"?

Look within ...

Yeah, maybe I subconsciously trolled him. Oh well. He needs to know that people do fine without god. He needs to think like I do. I will show him the light. (hypocritical sarcasm)

Depends on the person I guess. Im Muslim, and when a friend makes JOKES(Not Seriously) about me being a terrorist we just laugh it off cause he and I know that its a JOKE.

Yeah, but what about when he starts giving you shit about never being able to know the true awesomeness that is bacon?
 
Depends.

I went home for lunch last week, and the Mormons knocked on my door. I swung it open and yelled out, "Mormons!" We talked for 15 or 20 minutes. I dated a Mormon girl for years, and I went through (tortured) a lot of missionaries. Ultimately, it comes down to the fact that I just don't buy into it.

They seemed fine with that. I know these guys are young and away from home and doing something that they really believe in, so we just talked about nothing for a while. I asked them if they've seen the Southpark explanation of Mormonism (they haven't). Told them that they need to look it up on Youtube or something to see what it is that they're competing with.

They seemed cool with whatever.



Different ex-gf found god hard after dating me. Couldn't talk to her at all without god coming up. Got bored with it and stopped talking to her.

I drove a girl to god.
 
I was telling a story once to born again christian coworker and said "god dammit" at one point. He instantly cut me off and yelled, do not say the lords name in vain. I said i don't believe in a god. We don't speak much anymore..

We, my brother and I and a contractor doing some work at the house, were sitting around. My brother loved Sarah Palin for some reason I ended trying to tell him how stupid she is. I told him..."She believes the Earth is 5000 years old." All of a sudden the contractor, who so far hasn't said anything almost shouts, "I believe the Earth is 5000 years old."

Before I could shut my mouth I said to him, "Well you're as stupid as she is.."

ARGUMENT... INSULTS... he ended up telling me, "I hope Aliens eat your lunch." LOL.
