People who block aisles in the grocery store (doing a coffee clutch gathering).
Those stupid carts that look like cars (for the kiddies) at stores. (Who ever designed those should be shot)

People who play really crap music really loudly in their cars, especially with the windows down.

I hate it when the power goes out, and I can't post on WrongPlanet.

What do you mean precisely? What about Christianity do the pricks not know? The history of some of it's adherence in the past (say, perhaps, pogroms against the Jews centuries ago), or elements of the theology itself?

Christianity is a load of bollocks. I don't give a toss what people want to believe or if they want to believe in these imaginary gods and fairies or pixies in their garden. That's OK, but that shouldn't interfere in everone else's lives. Christians are obsessed with other people having sex. They're so sexually frustrated themselves that they seem to think, 'screw it, we're not getting any therefore no one else can!' Especially gay sex. Catholics are OBSESSED with gay sex.

I'm Catholic, and I have a gay friend. He can do what he wants; I don't mind. Some of the radical Catholics are obsessed with it, yes, but not all.

Awwww, what fun the Christians & Catholics had through out history. Throwing such wildly fun and crazy parties as the Inquisition, the Witch Trials, the Crusades. After all, it all in the name of God.

OK, I apologise, I have a tendency to make very sweeping statements like that, even when I am fully aware that I am generalising to the extreme lol
I have family who are Catholic and the person I would regarded as the closest thing I have to a friend is Muslim, so I don't dislike religious people individually, just certain kinds. I guess I should be more specific, I have had Christian friends before. :)

Oh, I didn't mean you had to apologize. It's just that I've met people you truly believe that every Catholic person hates homosexuals, and there are some that don't. That's all. *feel awkward*

Oh, that's OK, I know what you mean I think. :D
I felt I should probably explain though. I know some Christians who are perfectly fine.

Hmm... that is in danger of being read as not only quite intolerant but also quite ignorant.

I am not a religeous person and don't agree with organised religeon as a whole but there are many moderate branches of christianity that are harmless, charitable, friendly, very tolerant and interested in intergration with the wider community. Just because you don't believe in something, it doesn't mean it is inherently bad and also it doesn't mean that it should give us a licence to stereotype it by its least redeeming features. In fact I was having a chat with a representative from my local church not so long ago and he was very comfortable with the fact that I was agnostic and didn't believe in organised religeon and also took the time to stress that his church were interested in the wider community regardless of faith and that I was welcome to join in at fairs/events/charity work etc. that they did. I am starting to feel that there are more dogmatic atheists than theists nowadays...

I've already said that I didn't mean all Christians by that. Some of my family are Christian. I have friends who are Christian. Of course I know not all of them are like that. It was a very sweeping generalisation and I accept that, but I've already made it clear that I am aware of that. I have had friends in the past who were Christian.

Indeed I had an online conversation with a trainee Catholic priest who was a homosexual. It turned out that it didn't make much difference to him in the end as his preisthood meant he had to abstain from sexual contact anyway.
