How Christians View Themselves

I don't believe for one moment that that's how he sees himself, otherwise he wouldn't have a LOOK AT MEEEEEEEE ! comic strip like that one.

edited to add.....

... and his projections about how social progressives, the media and atheists see him demonstrate how ill-informed and self-absorbed he is.

Fixed that for you.

By the comments here I am a bit surprised that posters are seemingly not familiar with this "how others see" things meme.

It is quite well known.

Check it out, it will tingle your funny bone, not unlike this comic which is going right in my chuckle folder!

I tried to find an atheist "how others see me" meme to post to show how the meme works and couldn't. Have you run across one? Seems it would be easy to do, with all the cliches about atheists.

I know lots and lots and lots of Christians. Hundreds. Although I haven't taken a poll, I can tell you this accurately represents how they say they see themselves. No fewer than ten of them shared it on Facebook with "me rn" and "so true" commented on it.

I'm surprised you argue this. Do you not see yourself as a sinner who is loved by god? I was under the impression that's what being a Christian entailed.
 
I don't see Christians as Christians. Maybe because I know so many.

It's about as useful a category description as atheist, that is to say, not very useful at all. I think I'd know more about someone if you told me they were a plumber than a Christian.

My wife goes to Sunday school. I asked her when she was going to graduate. Not having a clever retort in mind, she didn't think it was funny at all.

SPIT TAKE

The Oatmeal guy is search engine optimizer who puts out "content" that panders to certain people. Hell, it isn't even a comic, most of his rantier pieces pandering to atheists just end up in a rant in comic sans font.

"But the thing is, the Oatmeal is terrible: opportunistic and unfunny, trite and shallow; it's poorly rendered lowest-common-denominator treacle from a man unable to tell the difference between creative process and social media marketing."

Oh you little rebel you.
 
I have never believed that Christians actually have the negative view of themselves that they claim. It's just a slogan they're expected to recite, not what shows up in their behavior. They're like a woman who claims to worry about not looking good between complaints about men hitting on her.

Even if your post is undeniably true, the guy in the opening post is still worse than Oatmeal.

This!^ The conservative ones MAY consider themselves sinners in need of salvation, but they still think they're better than everybody else.
