Sorry.

I'll stop talking to you.

It was a thought spurred by his post....I like what he has to say, yet when I try to comment on it or mention thoughts I have, I seem to piss him off.
...I've already managed to hack him off several times unintentionally.
The best way to manage that would seem to be simply not commenting on what he has to say anymore.

Apparently I've managed to do the same to you, as you're screaming at me even after I've apologized.
This sucks.

Instead of feeling sorry for yourself and apologizing, a more productive angle might be to read over the posts that have irritated people, and try to learn to recognize what, exactly, about them is irritating. That way, you can learn to avoid continuing to do it.

It occurs to me that I eat figs off my neighbor's tree anyway, so essentially my entire hedonistic fantasy revolves around a quiet house and free time.

Shoot for the moon, little scientist!
Quite similar to mine, actually.
I only ever get aggressive hedonistic fantasies if i don't get enough alone-time. Even then I yell variants of 'leave me alone' at least once every conversation, I do this weeks before i start imagining stabbing people in the eye.

:lulz: I used to get every Sunday, Monday and Tuesday to myself. But then I got another kid and around the same time my loser ex had to move into a studio apartment, so now I have Sundays during the day sort of to myself but not really, depending.

It is difficult. I am starting to dream of a cabin in the woods, which I know is an exaggerated form of what I really want out of life.

See also "false consensus", the erroneous assumption that others think as we do. So the terrified and self-loathing deviant turns to fire-and-brimstone for help controlling his antisocial urges, and falsely believes that others experience the same urges; therefore, those who have not turned to religion or another rigidly controlling institution to control them are loose cannons, threats to society. Ergo, naturally, they must be controlled, lest the Godless heathens go on child-raping rampages.

It makes perfect sense, from that perspective. This is why they are so convinced that the unsaved and unchurched are wantonly fornicating baby-eating sinners. When they talk about the sins of the unsaved, they are giving us a blueprint to their own psyches.

That freaks me out.

I've spent the last three weeks helping a friend (full story to come later) who was abused by her parents, who were also Baptists. They'd beat her for any or no reason at all, but one of their favorite reasons was to keep her from engaging in sinful activity, like cussing or trying to watch satanic foreign heathen television shows about the power of friendship.

If you believe that the fate of sinners is eternal torture, the logical conclusion of that is that you will one day end up torturing a child in real life and telling her that it's for her own good.

Sexuality takes you to hell.
Genital mutilation and rape can put people off of sex.
Therefore, therapeutic rape and torture is good parenting.

This, is a perfect illustration of the reason I find absolutely no level of religious belief acceptable. When the most important consideration in your life is some imaginary bullshit, all of reality is, by definition, of lower priority. I don't care if the majority of religious believers are harmless, good people. They're still inexcusably stupid and potentially dangerous to boot.

Well, that's fairly obvious, if you take a look at the Greek Pantheon, which consisted of

1.  Rapists, and
2.  The wives of the rapists who murdered or cursed the victims of the rape.

And then compare that to Greek culture during it's classical period, which consisted of

1.  Rapists.

So, people tend to manufacture Gods that reflect their core values. 

On the other hand, that doesn't imply that said Gods don't exist.  Maybe they're mutable, and change with human values?

There's a story in there, somewhere.

Someone introduced me years back to the concept of "egregore" in relation to god shit. Does god exist in this form? He might not have a face but he has agency, there's no doubt. However, if everyone stopped believing in his dumb ass, he'd cease to exist.

TvTropes named this one: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/GodsNeedPrayerBadly

The egregore-style memetic mutation doesn't factor in here necessarily, but it tends to go along with the same memeplex. I started seeing it a lot in the 90s, and so I mostly blame Neil Gaiman for promoting it. The best argument for the two going together comes out of the chaos magic community -- specifically the people who consider gods to be anthropomorphizations of neuroses & emotional disorders.
