hey i have one of those!!

NOW you know that's not the real one?

Multiple nicks....sure, but when have I ever altered my personality?

Edit:

You know, I just thought of something interesting this morning. The "impersonator", whom most of you know is lying about his identity and most likely his sexuality as well, has a reputation that growing....

While I, who have been perfectly honest and open about my thought and opinions with every single one of you, has and ever decreasing reputation.

Seems to me lot's of you clearly prefer being lied to over constantly being told the truth? I'll have to expound on this later....

It is all about freedom and choice
 

Well now Brain. You want people to read your post and believe that the other avatar is not you ? Then you say people would rather be lied to ? I do not care what you post and I can see you do not either. You made me mad when you first started posting here but now I get a laugh when I read your post. I will never get mad at your post again. All one has to do is consider the source and move on. Make your point with out the insults and you might find people will reply to your post but once again it is your choice. There are a few new people on the board and I welcome them all Old Soul, Fact and the Saints fan with the brown bag very nice and Texasbelle and I hope a few more. We are all just avatars with opinions some good some not so good and that is up to the reader. In this world of make believe who knows what is real and what is not. Did you take the red pill or the blue pill or did you take both the pills.

Don't flatter yourselves too much Brain1 and 2
 

Your multiple personalities are just a tad bit over the top. It seems that you should consider just being honest with the nice folks here and being true to just one personality. Come on, be honest, and have a fair discussion as ONE PERSON. And play nice while you are on the playground.

Actually I can't see your Avatar. I don't know why but yours is the only one I can't see which I guess could be a good thing.

Actually Texasbelle, the member whose name is BrainSmasher (proper spelling) is most likely not the same person as the other one. It appears to be obvious that there is someone on the forum posing as the original.

By the way, Brain (the real one), it isn't that we prefer being lied to. Your reputation is so low because you so strongly discourage the masses from believing anything that did not come out of your mouth. You claim that you have the only truth and what we all believe is a blatant lie...and you wonder why your rep is low? Agree to disagree. I admit that some of the members of this board could use a little extra tact from the polite factory, but I hope you'll forgive me for saying that you are definitely one of them.

If your mission here is to make all of the Christians on this board doubt their beliefs, then it would be foolish not to expect your rep taking some hits, especially when your methods are so direct and tactless. The name-calling and childish arguing like something you'd see on a schoolyard of 10-year-olds does not become this board. We should all make an effort to keep our debates clean and not take the opinions of other members so personally.

Anime I could not agree more on anything than what you have posted
 

Brain we welcome debate and yes we can agree to disagree. I would like to see you stay on the board but the attacks on ones person and not sticking to the issue at hand is not good. I have been guilty too but I am now taking on a new attitude and I hope you do to. :peace:

After reviewing acknowledgments of God from all 50 state constitutions, one is faced with the prospect that maybe, the ACLU and the out-of-control federal courts are wrong!

Please note that at no time is anyone told that they MUST worship God .

Yikes, that's too much reading. :freaky:

Just pick the ones you would like to read
 

I know it was long but you do not have to read the whole thing to get my point. Don't let it scare you Anime. It is just how this country came to be.
Isaac
I will keep them short in the future but I could not pass this one up.

Interesting...Virginia is the only one that actually mentions Christianity.

Hehehe. The Christian Farbearance part leaves you out, doesn't it, Iaasc? ;)

Well Anime you have a point there
 

May be time to move to Virginia :clap: My point not being lost "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth" so I know how you feel about the Bible and that is what we call "choice" we all have to make them if you know what I mean ;)
Isaac
Hey Anime I see you had time to read that "long" post of mine. Very good young man, very good ! :rolleyes:

But in every one of those Constitutions they acknowledged God which means they ALL were acknowledging his existence. I typically equate God and Christianity together. I wonder if our forefathers did as well.

It's quite possible, and I'd even say likely, that every reference to God in those lines are referring to the Christian God. However, we also have to acknowledge that Christians aren't the only ones who acknowledge God.

I see, so the belief in imaginary beings, like your god for instance, is "normal", and even expected, but believing that someone is pretending to be a gay version of me for their own entertainment (and for your entertainment as well, but to a lesser extent) is just to big of a stretch for you to grasp?

Not that I care....I just want you to be perfectly clear on the multiple reasons I have for questioning your intelligence level.
1. You obviously don't consider "the source" relevent if you believe I am posting under the guise of multiple nicks without any evidence to support your theory.

2. Glad you found the ability to dissociate your real life from your internet persona. Now maybe we can have intelligent conversations without you calling me a Socialist and preaching the gospel in every 2-3 posts.

3. It's obvious that people "prefer" the lie....simply look at the extreme difference between the reputation of me and the imposter.....the numbers speak for themselves.

Make your point without referencing imaginary beings when the subject doesn't pertain to religion, and I just might.
Well, I think it's pretty obvious to those of us paying attention what is real and what is not....at any rate I'm happy to see membership on the rise as well.

No, it's easier for you to believe I have multiple personalities than for you to believe someone is simply imitating me(or at least you claim to). I attribute this solely humanistic trait specifically to religion.
Obviously you are still confused about the message I am attempting to relay to you...
