That's kind of my point, lol. Bible camp was useful, I had a good time. However, that doesn't have much to do with this conversation. People like you use the excuse that people that are religious use their religion as a crutch. However, I haven't brought it up once. I believe what I believe, and you can believe what you want. However, the only people I see using it as a crutch is you, and the handful of people that keep bringing it up, thinking someone will quote their message and agree. I mean, its all good if that's what you want to aim at. However, I would think, as witty as you are obviously you should be able to find something else to talk about, with me. [/b][/quote] No, gladly. Unlike you and your brethren, I don't need religion. Religion is merely a crutch for those too weak-minded to lead their own lives, so they have to seek some fake greater being to lead it for them. And if you have to have someone lead your life for you, what's the point of personally living it(not saying commit suicide... at all)? Also, about having something else to talk about with you, I highly doubt that. Only taking a guess here, but I am going to say you're one of the 3 more popular religions. My guess would be Christian though. But hey, go ahead and say "believe what you want, I'll believe what I want, because as a Christian we are open-minded and unimposing". Yea, good job on double standards when you totally discredit my beliefs because they are not according to your lies, filth, and slander. Oh, and btw, go ahead and call me 15 or 16 years old because I generalized you without even knowing you. It really helps your cause by generalizing an age group, and makes you look so much smarter. Oh, and also, go ahead and say you wouldn't of ever said that, cause you know you would have if I hadn't already mentioned it.
Lol, you even used the exact word I did! And you think you've proved a point! It's amazing. How intelligent you think you are because you can say my crutch is my religion. I dismiss your opinion because of how little your argument makes sense. You don't even have a point, I promise you don't. You think you've proven that my religion is stupid, how? You really don't know much about religion, obviously, and if you think you do, I'm sorry. My religion isn't much of your business, and congrats you "guessed" Christianity, knowing that our Holy Book is the Bible. Rofl, obviously I'm a Christian. I know you're really smart, it's obvious. You haven't said what your beliefs are, nor did I dismiss ANYTHING about you, I said you're using the fact that I'm a Christian as a crutch. That's all you bring up, I swear I can say something like, "Man, this orange is sour." And you'd respond with, "You stupid closed-minded, slanderous Christian, you are judging me! omg!" It's so dumb, you brought up religion trying to insult me, but it's a horrible insult, didn't even make much sense. Obviously GR declining has something to do with Bible camp. It's just so idiotic. You didn't even have anything to do with the discussion. Of course I'm going to dismiss your opinion, duh, you're jumping into a conversation that has NOTHING to do with my religion bringing it up, lol. Also, there are about five "popular" religions, Buddhism, Hindu, Christianity, Islam, and Judaism.
Actually, it's been my experience that while being Christian is more satisfying, it's a lot harder than not being Christian. Swimming upstream in a flood, so to say. So I wouldn't say it's me leaning on a crutch, since most crutches aren't made of lead, with additional twenty pound weights attached. But it sure is a shiny crutch. With some to-die-for padding for your armpit. Sounds like someone has either been absorbing what the media and schools teach, or had a horrible experience with Christians. Not surprising these days, with how many people claim to be Christian, and get drunk five minutes later. Or brag about being the father of twenty, with 21-23 on the way. I won't deny that the church has been filled with hypocrites, and I can actually understand the animosity it's shown nowadays. Jackal: remember the many scriptures on compassion, grace, and forgiveness? Take a break from the topic, maybe. Anyways... What are we arguing about? The community? Well, you get used to it. There's a reason that you should always lurk first; you learn a lot and look less stupid to everyone else. Like right now I'm expecting to be dragged into another argument. I pretty much opened myself up for it.
My only point is, he has no argument. He brought up my religion, when what I said had nothing to do with religion. I've been around long enough to know what to expect because of my religion, I just think it's pretty weak to bring it up, because you don't know how to argue with someone. Find something else to argue about with me. If there is an occasion where I say "you're going to hell! YOU NEED TO BE SAVED!" then sure, fire away about my religion, but when I say, "GR is declining because you're all jerks." Then, for crying out loud, say something about that.
This is ridiculous. You guys should chill out and head over to My Topic. It'll make you feel so much happier. Edit: Unless your e-peens are too small.
Lol, you truly amaze me. I think you proved my point. No where did I claim to be even remotely educated. All I stated was that I am not religious. You automatically assumed, like any good Christian would. You religious fanatics are SO easy to piss off. (read like the first 30 words, tops, btw)
Meh, he's just looking for a stupid argument. The best thing to do is ignore them when you don't want to fight. And continue to ignore them when they call you a panzy . It takes a big man to win a fight, but an even bigger man to walk away. And Sock, I'm a woman... which I think excludes me from having an E-peen. But you're right, we should all head over there.
Want to bold where I said you weren't educated? I said you knew nothing about Religion. And if you aren't religious why is it so dumb for me to believe you don't know much about it? You seriously haven't proved anything. I don't even really understand what you're trying to prove. Also, whose pissed? I'm just sitting here typing, thinking how ridiculous you're being. When you prove something, maybe we can continue this, but you're just being so dumb right now, like, not even making sense.
No, to be honest, I am truly and honest to your God, not looking for a fight. I simply made a joking referance to bible camp, which like any religious person it seems these days gets all fussed up about. I haven't found any religious person within the last 5 years that can take a religious joke. You guys gotta have some vice versa jokes for the non-believers. <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(The Jackal)</div> It's called a joke. Not an insult. You over analyze it because somewhere in the bible in the early '90's it seemed as if no Christian could take a joke anymore.
I'm sorry, but I doubt Jesus condones smoking. Just so you know. Bad for your health and all that jazz.
I'm a christian... but I'm drifting away from it because I find it harder to believe in its basic principle (Jesus = savior) every day. And I'm pretty much ousted by a lot of the Christian community here for my "immorality" (we'll just say I've been around the block). I usually just... keep religion in my pants unless someone wants my honest opinion, but isn't just looking for an argument.
It's called a joke. Not an insult. You over analyze it because somewhere in the bible in the early '90's it seemed as if no Christian could take a joke anymore. [/b][/quote] I still can't figure out why you think you've made me so mad. You give yourself way too much credit. I could take a joke, if it were funny, but it wasn't even funny. That's what isn't making sense, you're just not as smart as you seem to think. I mean, it would be one thing if your joke made sense but it didn't even come close. Jokes should be relevant to the conversation, yours was just way off and really stupid. Also, the early 90s we were just being born, you were only a few years old I doubt you remember the day that "Christians" started not taking a joke. -_-...
You didn't directly say it, but you know were trying to indirectly call me uneducated. On which subject I didn't mention. Go go being a hypocrite!
So you assume by "you aren't as intelligent as you think...." means uneducated? Wow, and I've yet to see how I'm being hypocritical. Like, you aren't even making sense. Seriously, lol, it's starting to make me laugh.
