They're eerily quiet
And it pisses me off
Welcome to The Ex-Christian Observer: a weekly newsletter from a former Christian unpacking the madness that is evangelical Christian America.

What’s up nonbelievers, doubters, and skeptics?
The older I get, the more outspoken I become about pretty much everything. Life is just too short to not be authentic and tell people how you feel.
If people like me, they like me; if they don’t, they don’t. My fucks are running low these days.
Lots of true colors have been shown over the past 8 years.
Here’s one thing that especially irks me: people who call themselves Christians yet never criticize their own.
Evangelical Christians talk seemingly nonstop about issues like trans women competing in women’s sports.
Family members, people I used to go to church with, pastors—they all talk about this.
BUT…
When a pastor is charged with crimes such as sexual assault, they don’t say a goddamn thing.
I posted on my personal Facebook: “If you care more about transgender athletes than you do pastors sexually assaulting children, go fuck yourself and unfriend me.”
And, you know what? 3 or 4 people did. GOOD. You’re not my friend anyway.
I’m going to start posting and sharing way more of my Jesus Unfollower content on my personal accounts. It should be interesting, but I’m tired of sparing the feelings of those who say whatever they want, whenever they want with no regard for anyone.
The Frank Truth Show
In case you didn’t know, I launched a satirical podcast (and newsletter) called The Frank Truth Show. If you’re subscribed here, you’ll get that newsletter in your inbox on Fridays. I’ll try to more clearly label it as satire from now on. Some people were confused, I think.
You can check out the podcast HERE, or subscribe to The Frank Truth Show on YouTube.
Comments From Christians
Here are some comments that I received this week from lovely followers of Christ!
Probably 99% of the worst comments I get have a cross in their bio, and about 79% of those are also a dude holding a fish, crying about the male loneliness epidemic.
You may want to do some inner work, too, Joseph.
Interesting how he can’t connect the dots. Hmm…why would someone not like you when all you’re doing is preaching your religion?
This “junkie” was a coworker who smoked cigarettes. Sometimes a light bulb moment is all it takes to unravel your beliefs. For me, it was that conversation.
Another astute comment. An easy way to show how shitty of a person you are is to assume things like this about other people. It’s basically “you have a different opinion than I do, therefore, your parents didn’t pay attention to you.”
What?
Oh, you thought he was done? Yes, me making content about how I used to be a Christian is forcing the whole world to be atheists.
How do these people tie their shoes in the morning?
Remember Lucas? He’s baaaack. But, please, do NOT talk to him about protons.
Andrew Tate is shaping young minds.
Yeah, I’m good with being far, far away from your kind, Ray.
Looks like someone just bought a dollar store apologetics book.
I will always fight for his right to worship whatever god he wants, no matter how ridiculous I think it is.
I saw this on Threads. I guess Jesus and Trump are synonymous now. Also, land doesn’t vote.
Another go-to insult when Christians see something they don’t like: yOu’Re uNeMpLoYeD.
Religious trauma is trauma.
If you want to learn more about it, I highly suggest following my friend, Dr. Laura Anderson.
I’ve never once said all Christians are bad. If you take offense to my posts, maybe it’s because they hit close to home.
Bill is the kind of guy who sees stuff that other people share on Facebook and comments “why is this showing up on my page?”
I’m destroying a community by making jokes, memes, and posts that question Christianity? How fragile is your faith?
Riveting stuff. Maybe stop for 2 seconds to ask yourself why a page like mine might exist, Jacob.
If it’s not a fish profile pic, it’s a car.
No doubt this is one of the people who posts about trans athletes but not abusive pastors.
Oh, Billy boy. If I had your approval, I’d change literally everything about my life immediately.
Such a mic drop moment for Adam. He’s so cool.
He mentioned Pascal’s Wager, which is one of the worst arguments for God, and I replied with my Substack post about that very subject.
His reply:
My entire life? My dude, this account is the only thing you know about me. Thanks for continuing to demonstrate the love of Christ.
People get really mad when you talk about their god, don’t they?
Calm down, cups.
