Spiritual but not Religious

An ignorant and safe phrase for someone who doesn’t want to be pigeon-holed into a religion but doesn’t have the mental fortitude to admit or come to the conclusion that they either don’t know if there is and/or don’t believe there is a god or religion is wrong. (Agnosticism and Atheism, respectively).

Amy’s friend is Christian and while she doesn’t believe in the crack pot theories the Bible teaches like homosexuals should be stoned to death or a dude rose from the dead like a zombie, she either doesn’t want to confront her friend for fear of loss (and what a loss that would be), or she just doesn’t want to argue against it, passively condoning her behavior by stating, “you know, I’m just like spiritual but not religious. Also, I know you don’t believe in sex until marriage, but we can totally get ass-blasted by Darren tonight!”

religious persuasion

(n.) Ones' religion, that one was persuaded into belief of by man or miracle. Usually refering to the denomination as opposed to the actual religion.

I am a Christian, of the catholic persuasion, and will defend my beliefs against anyone who challenges them, unless thier misinterpretation is so great, that they should simply DIE, which rules out most people who talk about contradictions in the bible and other claptrap.

religious bigot

"Religious bigot" is a term used to stigmatize people that pose irrefutably good arguments as to why organized religions are antisocial institutions and harmful to humanity. Otherwise known as an "Ad Hominem," people from religious orientations often attack the people making arguments against their beliefs as opposed to their actual arguments.

1. "John says that my religion is destructive to humanity."
2. "John is a religious bigot, and likes to masturbate to furry porn."
3. "Therefore, John's argument is false. How could you trust a bigot that faps to furries?"

And so on.

lunchtime religious experience

(v.) To go down to the nearest catholic girls school during ones' lunchbreak and reach orgasm, whether it be by hand or underage schoolgirl (or boy)

John has a thing for religious chicks and molesting kids. After they reported his lunchtime religious experience, he had to hide in the bushes and jack off. What he didn't know was that the local dealer used to do his thing around there, and beat he shit out of him.

Religious Reich

Not content to refer to those who disagree with them as the "Religious Right" or "Christian Right", some moonbats demonize their adversaries further by referring to them as the "Religious Reich".

As far as I can tell, Isaac Bonewits was the one who coined the term 'Religious Reich'.
