One day I was listening to the ramblings of a religious zealot (you know how they love to ramble about jesus and god and unconditional love [with the condition that you believe in them so you don't go to hell that is]) and i actually got physically sick and threw up all over the floor. Has this ever happend to anyone else before?

I couldn't have resisted jumping up with a big smile right after and saying "You're right! You're right! Praise be, I've seen the light and Jesus has flown into my heart pushing all the wickedness out of me and onto your new brogues! Truly, this puke is a sign of the Lord Jesus's presence! It is HOLY puke! Hallelujah!"
After they'd exitedly scooped a few handfuls of it into their pocket I'd have said "Nah, only kidding".

Two years ago on Easter I was dragged to a nondenominational Christian church in VA by my cousin who recently got involved with that scene. It was in an auditorium with a rock band, a light show, kids with skateboards and piercings and a Pastor Tim (or someone) who was a 'cool dude' who kept making references to the Rolling Stones and linking them to Jesus somehow. I started feeling sick during one of the jam sessions that involved a U2 cover and the nausea only got worse. I jumped on a train back to NYC after church and I felt weird and queasy the whole way home. When I finally got into my apartment, I closed the door, started crying and ran into the bathroom and threw up a few times. It was the first full church sermon I had ever been to. I couldn't believe it actually made me physically ill. I felt really messed up for the rest of the evening. The church had passed out CDs of the sermon I heard and I popped it in my stereo the next day and the nauseous feeling came right back. I'm not making this up to be obnoxious, it really happened to me. Obviously I MUST be possessed by a demon.

Well.. luckily for me most religious people I know are good folks who don't see themselves with a mission to convert the whole world - and in that group I even have a couple of reverend friends who know I'm an atheist.
But now that you mention it, a couple of years ago I did have a weird experience with a zealot right here in New York. He was going up and down a subway car preaching hell & brimstone. There were a group of young guys & gals who were looking on in amusement at this man of God as he ranted on about sin and such.
Unfortunately for him, he suddenly started raving about the evils of "coveting thy neighbor's as*s." In seconds the kids were having fits of loud, uncontrollable laughter. I mean, they lost it! Normally I walk away from these things - old guys like me shouldn't be laughing at people. But then the fool looks me straight in the eye and with a stentorian voice shouts out, "Have you ever coveted thy neighbor's as*s?!" An involuntary guffaw came out of me so loud it surprised me, which shut me up, which then made me laugh even louder! Luckily the god-guy ran into the next car or I would've definitely hurled!
Looking back on it, maybe this guy did this just to get people laughing. Hey! this is New York.

former churchie right here. I have continuously doubted my christian faith yet then had to suppress it by way of the undeniable fact that is 'sinful'. After an major failure in my existence, i determined that i replaced into going to stay existence on my own words, so i began searching in any respect my beliefs significantly. the element that really were given me with faith replaced into the overt sexism, that replaced into the only element i could not make excuses for: you comprehend this is god's will etc. besides, i appeared into the history of religion, study my bible significantly etc and then rapidly discarded it. No i do not pray anymore yet i do discover myself cringing each and every so often even as someone blasphemes, that is more advantageous an emotional (worry) reaction that i somewhat shake off even as i imagine about it rationally. I even ought to assert yahoo R&S helped me alot too and interpreting books like the god fantasy and god isn't large were very instrumental. even as each and anybody round you feels strongly about some thing you imagine is actual ridiculous, each and every so often it makes you ask your self if there is a few thing incorrect with you. So searching those who shared my beliefs really helped. My propose to you, is proceed to voraciously take in techniques about the international, faith, non-faith, technology, each and everything. It truly opens your ideas up and provides you some attitude

No, I don't generally volunteer my time to actually listen long enough to cause sickness. Although that might be a way to invoke the god of sick days off from work...
