Thank you Keeno. I thought I was fighting a losing battle alone.


Only too happy to help, and from what I've seen so far I think this board needs me and you around huh?


Yeah, no community is complete without the resident religious nutters. :lol:


You talking about me? Oh I get now we're going to name call. How really childish that is. What do you expect me to do to that sort of reply? I don't see where you can prejudge us the way we believe. Actually I'm a really silent person with a short fuse on my temper. I'm not proud of the things I say here actually I really don't care one bit about you sinners. Maybe burning in hell what you die is what you need. There always have to be low lifes like you all out in the world that no one really cares about. I freaking piety you and maybe even I'll spit in your face! Don't anyone continue this freaking discussion. I think we did enough harm to each other or to me don't you think? Don't you think I should get some peace and quite while not having to worry about breaking everyones panes of glass? I know this is a public forum but would you leave me the hell alone. I don't want anyone backstabbing me either. Take care, not!


That's very christian of you. :)

Oh really? Let's put things aside for now and how I believe! This is not going anywhere. All you non believers who are going straight to a real place called Hell when you die just leave me the heck alone! I have enough of your and the others bullying. I'm up to my neck of it and maybe I'll just take a knife to my chest and see who really cares. There's no raw nerves that you stepped upon. I just love arguements. I'll argue this subject until we both are dead! I really don't give a darn about you and the rest of your sinners but have God have mercy on your soul!

i wonder why you got all defensive when i mentioned "religious nutters", Tigerfire.

It's just an outlet for them to express their mental illness in a more 'acceptable' way.



i'm sure most religious people don't appreciate being called "nutters" or any such implication that their mental stability is anything but. don't get why you're approaching this the way you are....afterall, there's so many better routes to dissent against religion than that.

i agree with you that most religious people don't believe it deep down, though. i mean if they did, they'd want to imitate jesus, not the hateful "leaders" of the congregation who seek to simply control people, define what is evil, and encouraging intolerance and inequality for homosexuals.


My methods are my own. I dont believe in pussyfooting around and buttering up my words when i have a gift for getting straight to the chase.

hahahahahahahahahahahaha. look, i'm on boards where people are a lot nastier than you are to people but they at least back up what they're saying with some kind of argument. and actually i'm not used to not being able to swear......i'm surprised some swears haven't slipped through yet. but yeah, i'm not asking you to butter up your words, i'm asking you to show some cognative ability and go beyond just saying stuff without backing it up. use yer brain if you're claiming you have one!

Pity you didnt pee in the "blood" of christ, lol. Jesus must have been a complete alcoholic for his blood to have such a high level of alcohol in it, then there was the trick of turning water into wine. And to think he is the role model of the group, what must his followers/flock have been on/like? 8O

well, exactly. the whole notion of jesus as some squeaky-clean nice guy is wrong. He was an outlaw, seen to associate with riff-raff: blue collar types and drinkers, a real shocker, an anti-establishmentarian, and they executed him for it. I flatter myself that I resemble him in some of these ways. They don't have capital punishment here though.

Please quit it with the personal attacks, ladies and gents. If you're going to debate things constructively, go ahead and do so. If you're just going to turn this into another flame war, go find somewhere else to do that.

That being said, we're back on-topic again. It seems like many religions have faded out over the years, but Christianity has grown. Why do you think that is...?
