Tim Todd Ministries - PREYING ON TEENS!

I'd like to see the RRS take on Tim Todd. Once again, I've been tipped off by an AFA email bulletin to another of the many "youth ministries" who indoctrinate, miseducate and psychologically abuse our children.

Tim Todd in Washington

Atheists in general, and the RRS specifically, have been accused of "preying upon" young people with our damnable, worldly truth. Tim Todd shouldn't get off the hook without someone showing how much MORE detrimental HIS "education" of youth is to their sanity and intellect. Here's his Truth for Youth site, where he sends free Bibles to teens (requiring their name, age, email AND home addresses; isn't that against COPPA?) - and don't miss the lies, propaganda and bullshit statistics they solicit in their "Hot Comics" section. Now, I'm not anywhere near as educated as many of the peeps here at RRS, but even I can see that their "facts" are anything but.

Have I mentioned lately that of all the things that are wrong about religion (and they are legion), the way that it is used to fucks with kids' minds while simultaneously filling their heads with complete and utter bullshit with regard to the REAL world and science is quite likely the #1 issue that brings out the MOST "aggressive atheist activist" in me? It's the one thing that makes me wish for the utter destruction of religion. We adults can argue and debate against nonsense... kids, whose brains are merely empty vessels waiting to be filled with information, are doomed.

I'm currently enraged and I think I'll stick with that emotion... cuz if I let it go, the only other one left is depression: an abyss of despair that this campaign of misinformation and lies continues unchecked - with support from government, no less! Meanwhile our kids are in REAL danger (and not of Hell or Satan) because of these delusional fucking retards.

I'd buy my kid a subscription to the porn mag of her choice before I'd ever let her get involved with any of these "youth ministries." Their sole purpose is to indoctrinate children and turn them into scripture-quoting Jesusbots, and they are the ENEMY of every parent who gives a shit about their kids' mental health.

The comics on that site are

The comics on that site are slick looking but the content (text) is retarded. I hope there aren't many teens that read that and think, this is cool. I especially dislike the one concerning evolution....

I'm not sure which one I hate the most, but the ones on evolution, homosexuality and safe sex are definitely beneath contempt and dangerous to the extreme in terms of misinformation.

It gave me a headache

I read some of the comics...

Raised Brow

All I have to say about this is that Mr. Todd owes me some Tylenol.

Whenever I hear "Truth" in

Whenever I hear "Truth" in a name or title, I brace myself for the BS that always seems to follow. Any insistence about truth in this way, is usually a good indication of that you are being lied to. This site doesn't disappoint.

Christians like to attach the word "Truth" or "The Truth About......." to anything they preach.

Lol - I've read some of the comics on that site. Not only are the just Jack Chick-style cult propaganda, but their stereotypes are so out of touch with the real world that someone would have to have spent their whole teenage years locked in their room with a Bible in one hand and their dick in the other, not to laugh out loud (sadly that's probably how most of the kids who read these comics are raised).

Trivia - Jack Chick admitted that he based his comics style off of Maoist propaganda cartoons.

Optimism is reality, pessimism is the fantasy that you know enough to be cynical

I agree with you totally - these youth ministries are just cults which seek to brainwash children and retard their critical thought - because this is what cults want - they don't want to raise healthy and mentally sound children, they want to train kids into taking everything they say as absolute truth and distrusting everyone on the outside world, hoping they will do free ministry work and donate their money all the while thinking they're "doing the work of God" or something. They also want children to be as misinformed about the real world as possible, because they know that misinformed children will have a tougher time making it in the real world, and will end up feeling dependent on the cult as their only means of "moral" support.

It's all about exploiting minds in their most innocent phase just for the purpose of making money for the leaders - and it's really no different than Communist or Hitler-youth style propaganda, or child molestation for that matter. If I had my way, people like Tim Todd and his child predator ilk would thrown in prison, or taken out and shot in the back of the head. The world would be a safer place for children.
