Blair Scott of American Atheists has been posting some of the Facebook comments and email that organization gets from crazy people, many of those messages containing threats. I asked him to forward me copies of those messages so I could post them here to expose the dark underbelly of crazed hatred that exists in this country. Here are a few:

Dear whoever you are, I’ll pray for you. There is a special place in hell for you kinds. This country was built on the faith of Christianity, so if you dont like it; LEAVE. I pray though that you’ll come to your senses and you’ll follow God so that maybe one day you can be with me in heaven. I pray YOU’ll “come out of closet” and admit that GOD IS REAL, and YOU ARE WRONG. So I’ll pray and as long as you believe this I will pray that you will go from being just totally insane to INSANE FOR JESUS.

Ah yes, the “if you don’t like this being a theocracy, leave” argument. This email came with the headline “You will all be sorry.”

Use the brain that Allah gave you. If Allah is a myth,where did you come from? Did you create yourself? Atheism makes know sense. Again, use the intelligence Allah gave you.

And:

You are the cancer to American freedom, we will resist and you will lose. How dare you go into anothers community and tell them how to live. you do the devils work, you will fit in well in his domain.

And the “God is going to get you” argument, always so convincing:

All of you stupid Bastards should open up your history books and find out that this country was founded on Christianity! If you folks don’t like the Christianity in this country I’ll be more than happy to help you pack! Do not be deceived God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. Galatians 6:7. Continue on the road you are on and you will feel the wrath of God!

Apparently he thinks “bastards” is a proper noun.

look let people share there beliefs. all your company is, is a bunch of hatemongers who think there way is the only way. so what im trying to say is GET THE FUCK OVER YOUSELVES. FUCK YOU AND YOUR FOLLOWERS…

Very Christ-like, don’t you think?

all of you are dumber than a jar of mayonnaise.. and fact is that SATAN has fooled you and you will be in HELL, the very second you die.. if that is what you want then it is your choice,,,, your a bunch of brain dead morons and i will bring you down,,,,, by bringing you to CHRIST to save you. i am the president of the NACA. NEW AGE CHRISTIAN ARMY…………………. and i will fight and pray for you as long as it takes to save your soul……………..

“But I tell you who hear me: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you.”

And then there’s this one, which was left on Facebook:

“And I have a RIGHT to BEAT the living fucking shit OUT OF EACH AND EVERYONE OF YOU MOTHERFUCKERS!!!” – Jeff Nach

And another threat, which was forwarded to the authorities:

you blair, and dave S, and the entire american atheists of america organization WILL BE TERMINATED….. you will not even find a rock to crawl under………….////////////////////////.

And another:

Hey you perpetual morons, We are Christians and would welcome you pussies lame ass attempt to get rid of us. You better come heavy though ’cause you’ll be chewing on 50 cal. all day. Then we’ll bury your shredded carcasses out back in the cow shit. So come on . . . let’s go round n round.

And yet another:

‎”Oh how I wish a natural disaster happen when you people are on the mall in Washington D.C. It would be fantastic to see the mall turn into a hugh sinkhole sending you to the pit of hell! You want to take your place in history? That would do it!!!!”

And they’ll know we are Christians by our love, by our love.
