Dawkins?

The FSM?

"pray" tell

I want a T-shirt of the last one.

She's potentially got serious anger issues, projecting an awful lot of anger (it appears) toward people she's never met about their beliefs that she doesn't understand using inaccurate attributions.

She's hurting, she's not at peace.

My guess is that she's met far too many of them and put up with their stupid and arrogant bullshit for too long. Do you think blacks who criticize racism need counseling too?

As Mark Twain said, choose Heaven for climate and Hell for the company.

Eternity spent with the type of asshole who's absolutely convinced that they are going to Heaven would be Hell.

I know the type, always wanting to "counsel" angry atheists...

I feel minorities are entitled to their anger.

Absolute nonsense.

Could say something similar about you: "Projecting an awful lot of condescension and arrogance (it appears) toward a person you've never met ".

You're babbling, you're not to be taken seriously.

She might be just fine, spiritually and emotionally.

She might just be portraying someone blinded by anger lashing out irrationally against things she doesn't understand.

So, you may have a point.

Gimme a hug.

much less "lashing out irrationally against things she doesn't understand."

Even ignoring the "anger" and "lashing" portion, how the hell do you know from one picture what she does and doesn't understand?

And how do you know she is angry and lashing out? Sometimes realizing that something is only deserving of having the bird flipped to it is a pretty mentally healthy standpoint to take.

Of course it's probably just made-up bullshit.

But, if real, is evidence of a disturbed individual that might benefit from some professional and/or spiritual guidance.

diagnoses of people's mental state from something on the internet.

But I'm sure our resident psycho-scold will be along any moment to upbraid you for it, as he does with everyone who tries to characterize people's mental state without a proper clinical evaluation.

Well, ok..not people in his gang of religionista cronies, but at least he's sorta consistent and not hypocritical. Well, ok..maybe not even that, but what can you do?

The claim is technically accurate in every way.

The troubled woman is lashing out against Christians and "their God".

Her anger might be more well-directed toward the authors of the bible and the bigots who use parts of it to promote their own personal agenda.

Poor thing, very confused, blinded as I said by her anger.

I see this a lot, this confusion and blind anger.

that's the feeblest denial I've seen all day.

I use the American wire gauge for how well my points are understood.

This one gets a 28 awg for having delivered.

Not too bad, but not a 6 or 4.

I see the confusion, anger, complete arrogance, and totally wrong conclusions you are displaying a lot too.

Nothing you point to is in that pic.

She looks pretty cheerful in the picture.

But on the whole I say no.

...feel a lot better knowing that "on the whole", god is not vengeful, except for those few moments here and there.

...as god hears a prayer.

them out.

Will help? Magical thinking isn't a good thing. Also how do you know she's not at peace? Such irrational nonsense is scary.

And, prayer could mean her praying alone, others praying for her, or her with others praying together.

But if she rejects prayer than only the second one makes any sense.

Counseling with a good soul is the alternative.

Some of the ones posted above might be ok. Others might be deemed really offensive no matter what they were addressing.

I like Molly Ringwald's answer, thought. I think kids need to be taught early about the potential conflicts between freedom of speech and protecting their own privacy. Many really don't get it.

like - tell your teacher to kiss your ass and mind her own business and respect your privacy.

I'm not sure that would be the best approach.

Perhaps she will have the opportunity to educate her teachers and peers. Perhaps this could turn into a positive experience for both her and others.

While they may not be receptive, such a hostile approach is likely to eliminate any possibility of that happening.

I wonder where her parents are in all this.
