I got an email from a fan of Chabad (perhaps a member) to "suggest" (he indicated that he's a lawyer) that I stop mocking their goofy religious teachings on Twitter.

So, in response to that, here are a few of my "Stupid things about Chabad and their Rebbe" memes.

1/8

While having claimed to have an engineering degree (which cannot be confirmed by the university), the Rebbe would often write letters (which are collected in bound volumes and revered by his followers) to try to explain science.

This is one example of "Geocentrism is true".

In his letter explaining why Evolution is not science, and why scientists won't accept the Genesis account as true:

As for the nutty idea that God didn't create dinosaurs, but old fossils. yes, he was a proponent of that as well:

4/8

After his death, many of his followers considered him the Messiah, citing the same passages as Christians to prove that he fulfilled all of the prophecies, and are still awaiting his return.

5/8

There is also an App where you can ask the King Messiah any question and He will email you back a response (a representative, actually).

A donation is requested because the Rebbe cannot seem to cause a cash flow for His organization!

6/8

Every year, they have gatherings to "Meet the Rebbe" (this one a month prior)

Keep in mind that to them, he's not really dead, just "hidden away".

Many ask Him to intervene on high on their behalf, making pilgrimages to His meeting place. They refuse to call it a grave.

7/8

I don't know if the Chabad guys are watching. But if this doesn't piss them off on Tisha B'Av (special mourning holiday today), I don't know what will.

Yes, they are everywhere...watching...
