Top 10 danger signs (from evilbible.com):
10 - You vigorously deny the existence of thousands of gods claimed by other religions, but feel outraged when someone denies the existence of yours.
You vigorously deny the importance of thousands of other marginal sexual and social behaviors, but feel outrage when someone calls yours ‘marginal’.
9 - You feel insulted and “dehumanized” when scientists say that people evolved from other life forms, but you have no problem with the Biblical claim that we were created from dirt.
You feel insulted and “dehumanized” when a judge says you can’t get married in this state, but have no problem citing irreproducible scientific research that says your sexual orientation is fixed at birth.
8 - You laugh at polytheists, but you have no problem believing in a Triune God.
You laugh at long-standing traditions like polygamy, but have no problem including yourself in the definition of ‘alternative marriage’.
7 - Your face turns purple when you hear of the “atrocities” attributed to Allah, but you don’t even flinch when hearing about how God/Jehovah slaughtered all the babies of Egypt in “Exodus” and ordered the elimination of entire ethnic groups in “Joshua” including women, children, and trees!
Your face turns purple when you hear of the ‘atrocities’ attributed to anti-homosexuality, but you don’t even flinch in comparing the same atrocities to indentured servitude, beatings, whippings, lynchings, hangings, and other actual persecutions that make bureaucratic paperwork seem heavenly.
6 - You laugh at Hindu beliefs that deify humans, and Greek claims about gods sleeping with women, but you have no problem believing that the Holy Spirit impregnated Mary, who then gave birth to a man-god who got killed, came back to life and then ascended into the sky.
You laugh at beliefs that deify humans, Buddhist and Greek ideologies like purity, virtue, and stoicism, and you have no problem holding pederasty up as an example of any practice that should in any way be emulated by anyone.
5 - You are willing to spend your life looking for little loopholes in the scientifically established age of Earth (few billion years), but you find nothing wrong with believing dates recorded by Bronze Age tribesmen sitting in their tents and guessing that Earth is a few generations old.
You can quite easily see loopholes in the tradition of marriage as it is currently defined, but you find nothing wrong with exploiting those loopholes to sanctify marginal sexual behaviors.
4 - You believe that the entire population of this planet with the exception of those who share your beliefs - though excluding those in all rival sects - will spend Eternity in an infinite Hell of Suffering. And yet consider your religion the most “tolerant” and “loving.”
You believe you can redefine marriage to include your personal proclivities, excluding those who’s proclivities you don’t happen to agree with, and ignoring or silencing those who prefer the definition as it is. And yet you consider your definition to be “progressive” and “tolerant”.
3 - While modern science, history, geology, biology, and physics have failed to convince you otherwise, some idiot rolling around on the floor speaking in “tongues” may be all the evidence you need to “prove” Christianity.
While modern science, biology, and statistics have failed to convince you otherwise, one roll in the hay with another guy is all the evidence you need to “prove” to others that any thoughts you have on homosexuality are right.
2 - You define 0.01% as a “high success rate” when it comes to answered prayers. You consider that to be evidence that prayer works. And you think that the remaining 99.99% FAILURE was simply the will of God.
You claim .004% as proof of inequality when it comes to homosexuality, and you think that the remaining 99.996% of crime is simply random or without motivation. And that’s a good thing.
1 - You actually know a lot less than many atheists and agnostics do about the Bible, Christianity, and church history - but still call yourself a Christian.
You actually know a lot less than many married and single individuals about sex, relationships, and community- but still claim to know that rewriting laws because of sexuality is a good idea.
OUCH. Now that was a fail and then some.

Just to clarify people, when I said fail I was making a statement that lucasas attempt at belittling the original list was a fail, not the list itself.
By the way a little entertainment for everyone to show religious tolerance towards people who are different.
