All Religions Are Silly Except Mine

silly Christians

I found this cartoon on Tumblr. I do not know its source, but I have decided that it is too perfect not to share. Wouldn't it be great on a t-shirt? No caption is necessary; it speaks for itself.

I am sure some Christians would decide to be offended by it, but what it depicts is firmly rooted in reality. Early Christians did seek to replace native religions with their own (often violently) and were largely successful in doing so. Many modern Christians continue to mock other religions are being more primitive, silly, or cult-like than their own. They might not recognize the hypocrisy, but we atheists certainly do.

Update: A reader has suggested that the source of the cartoon is Maurice Sinet.
