Remember this comes from someone who's not a christian. It also comes from someone who thinks most of humanity is a waste of protein strands.
The next person I see or hear who states they've lost respect for a celebrity due to discovering they're a christian is going to wake up and find me sitting next to their bed; smiling and lubing up a scalemail clad badger ni order to forcefully insert it up the fucktard rectally.
I'm not talking about authors, cartoonists, actors who "find Jesus" and become preachy. I'm speaking of people who are not preachy at all. To the point of really not being able to know WHAT religion, if any, the individual may be a member.
Some twat over on one of the Good Eats communities made a long drawn out post about how shocked and dissapointed that Alton Brown appeared on the cover of Guideposts and had an interview article within. The idiot went on about how they didn't know if they could ever respect him again.
I post this here because I don't want to continue the flamewar which has blown up over there due to the post.
FUCK YOU, you lacking-of-balls asstard! I know you're just 18 and have no fucking clue about ANYTHING in life. BUT FOR FUCK'S SAKE! Get a whiff of the clue as it whistles past over your head!
How DARE you look down on someone simply because they "FAILED" you and are part of a religion you don't subscribe to? He doesn't preach his religion on the show. He doesn't say that if you believe in evolution that you're going to burn in hell. He simoply stated that his faith has helped him in his work and in his life. ESPECIALLY with his recent motorcycle accident.
FUCK YOU you PCeelie piec of shit! DO the world a favour and jump your oversensitive ass off a dam or a tall bridge! Make the world a better place. Kill yourself.
...
But seriously, ANYONE who looks down on another person simply because of their religion or faith ... when that person hasn't tried to shove it down your throat ... is just as bad as Jack Chick and Fuckhead Phelps. Just not as entertaining.
I've kept quiet about comments like that from people I consider friends (or at least people whose company I can tolerate without wanting to put them through a wall or three). No more.
Putting down the xtians is just as bad as them putting down the jews, muslims, pagans, pastafarians etc etc etc. Get off your high horse. Even if that high horse happens to be your Sacred Stag or something else along those lines.
Get the fuck over yourself and look at people as they are. Not looking down on them for something so trivial as the faith which gets them out of bed in the morning.
In short, SHUT THE FUCK UP! NEXT!

That's a whole different kettle of worms.
Especially because I generally had no respect to begin with for those I found out were scientologists.

Do you even have to ask that?
I can like the art and dislike the artist quite easily.

I'm a lot more religious than my behaviour might suggest to the clueless outsider. I keep it to myself. But if I chose to speak about it, I wonder how many of my friends would turn their backs on me?

I'd not turn my back on you if you began speaking about your religion.
Of course, that'd be primarily because I'd be scared of getting pantsed.

It's amazing how few people can just say "hey, you do your thing, I'll do my thing, we'll all do it peacefully and it will be cool." So long as someone isn't trying to convert my heathen ways or take away my rights based upon their religious beliefs, they're good by me. It's not even something that should come up in polite conversation, to begin with.

No, I didn't want to continue the flamewar. Basically this was me "screaming into my pillow" instead of ripping the person a new one.

Cruelty involved in the manufacture of veal? - Must be the christians.
Gas prices too high? - It's all those christians buying SUV's to show their support of the christians in the government.
It's the carpet-bomb demonizing that bugs me. Hating a group of people without logical pretext only proves that you, yourself are a person to be hated. Use your brain, look at the facts, and then hate them.
no subject
And I'll be the first one to admit I'm not perfect.
After all, I've a personal bias against SUVs in general.

In fact, I hope there are a bunch of babygoths out there who read this and learn.
Hey, I don't mind Jack Chick's work...it's funny stuff (w/ a grain of salt), and funnier parodied. :)

I prefer to keep my entertainment and my (or other people's) religion separate, so I'd be dubious were he to start talking about religion on his *show* (simply because I'm not interested in hearing preaching of any kind), but WTF? Is the guy not allowed to have ANY personal beliefs or a life outside the Food network??!? X_x
The above doesn't apply if I find out that a celebrity has a particularly *repellent* belief (espousing apartheid or gay-bashing or whatever), but that's not religion, that's just plain idiocy. I definitely draw a distinction between people who believe in $Deity and people who take that belief as a license to be nasty little fuckheads . . . I respect the former as they earn it on an individual basis, and the latter not at all.
Good

on the home front here.. it's really 'on the nose' to admit you are or have ever had any kind of association with christianity.. in the indie music scene here it's career suicide if you mention or it's discovered and made public that your band may have had any kind of 'christian' association.. it will effectively kill your chances of getting airplay and major industry support..
I never thought P.C could ever generate that kind of evil..
Alton Brown!?!?? WTF?
WTF!?!?!? THE HIPPIES FORGAVE BOB DYLAN, GET OVER IT.
I think we should all just get together, play 'Shot of Love' and invite Alton.

Alton Brown is the producer and star of GOOD EATS and FEASTING ON ASPHALT. He's also the commentator on IRON CHEF AMERICA. But I forgive him for that. He's the only thing that makes that godawful show even remotely watchable. (*1)
He's basically a foodie version of Beakman from Beakman's World. Most people call him the Bill Nye of the Kitchen. But I refuse to use that as a way to describe him as I think Bill Nye the Science Guy should suffer a huge lab accident. (*2)
(*1) Now if Bobby Flay caught aflame on air. THAT would make the show enjoyable!
(*2) He was a big part of the campaign to force television networks in the states to air a required amount of "educational" programming each week. Most of the networks decided that if they used saturday morning as the block of educational programming then they'd lose less ad revenue.
That self righteous asshat knew his show would be safe. But it caused the death of SATURDAY MORNING CARTOONS for a few years. When the saturday morning cartoon blocks finally returned, they were mostly filled with fifth rate anime junk and/or rehashed and tired shite. No more Project GeeKeR. No more Caddilacs & Dinosaurs. No more Reboot (in the states at least. Not until Cartoon Network bought the rights to air the previously unaired seasons) etc etc etc
Bill Nye needs to "accidentally" drink some Hydrochloric Acid.
