    How come if you say shitty things and hide behind the Bible, it’s fine and totally cool because this guy is just a outlier.

    But do that and hide behind say, I dunno, a frickin D&D book… And everyone wants to burn D&D books?

      Because there’s a control scheme built with the Book of Vile Darkness (read Bible, not the D&D item) but not any D&D books. This on it’s own wouldn’t likely be enough to see D&D books burned but because there’s a control scheme in play that feels threatened by anything that brings people joy ‘X said something bad because D&D’ is a sufficient justification in their eyes.

    I would like to see assholes like this take a reading comprehension test. At this point, I don’t think we are even reading the same book.

    Whereas the truth is, they’re in the same place. The same place that bigot will be when he dies and the same place we all will be when we die.

    And it’s too bad he won’t have any awareness of it after it happens because the schadenfreude of him finding out he’s not going to have an everlasting afterlife would be nice to enjoy.

      I think they must know, deep down, or else they wouldn’t lust after clout and power so much in this life
