So you admit you are a racist? Of the 5 skin colors on this planet (white, black, red, yellow, and brown) only 20% meet with your sexual fantasy approval? Do you still consider yourself scientifically open minded?

If racist means that I only find white women attractive, then yep, I'm 100% racist.

You got a dictionary to support that theory of yours or can we just agree to stop trying to make **** up?

Isaac-Saxxon 04-25-2007 06:41 AM

Is Christianity under attack by secular society?
 
Yes it is :mad: It is also under attack by brain who is always talking in circles as to speak in babble and place Christians under his foot. Brain dead you are only helping for the Christians on this board to take a hard stand and you just may be here to serve that very purpose.

BrainSmashR 04-25-2007 07:42 AM

No, I use dictionary definitions. It's zealots who make up their own meanings for terms like Racist and Socialist.

There's a reason people "attack" christians, you're just to stupid to figure out it's ALWAYS been your own fault.

Isaac-Saxxon 04-25-2007 08:15 AM

There is a real good reason for the attacks on Christians
 
This life we live is a test and only a test and a short one at that. You and and your kind are placed here as the negative side of the equation and for every positive there is a negative.You are doing a great job at playing the Devils advocate legion for they are many. :nono: :nono: This would relate to the sheep and the goats ! Wheat and Tares ! The good seed and the sons of Cain nothing new about you and your method of operation. You wear your banner with pride and pride is what cause Satan to fall so you black headed Tare time is real short for the likes of your "type" you are all the same so enjoy the moment for that is all you have :rolleyes:

Gee, and you think "our" time would have been getting "short" when "we" crucified your "savior" more than 2000 years ago.

You are right about that Legion your time has been running out like sand in a sieve ;) and soon as Christians have put off their mortal soul and taken on a eternal soul through Christ you will be in the blotted out group and time is over no burning like a piece of bacon just turned to ashes from within. I do so look to that day to be in my near future for the harvest is near and you know what that means for you Beelzebub :clap: :clap:

This statement seems a bit hypocritical after reading your feelings regarding the atheist teacher who was attacked. Was that his own fault too? There's a reason people "attack" athiests, right?

Of course it was his own fault. Just like if you get mugged walking down a dark ally at midnight THAT would be your fault too.

Just because the teacher has every legal right to express his religious beliefs, that doesn't make his classroom the proper place to express them. HOWEVER, the mistake on part of the teacher doesn't justify the ILLEGAL act of violence perpetrated by the Marine. If he found the teachers actions offensive, he could have spoken up, left the classroom, even filed a grievance with the department head (remember, separation of church and state?). Instead he chose to use violence.

I understand your point, however I do not think that if someone drives to a hospital at night and is mugged in a dark alley or parking lot or whatever at midnight, that would be his fault. If he was walking into a bar and he was mugged in an alley or parking lot, I still don't think that would be his fault. Now if he was walking into a crackhouse, then OK, you got me! :D

I suppose if you choose to walk into what you know is a hostile environment, then you would share some blame for doing so. However, this does not justify the existance of unnecessary hostile environments (i.e. dark alleys and bad neighborhoods).

But is every alley really hostile? I think it's because of the generalization and hype that people get from outside media and from a particular personal experience. I like to venture into these sorts of would-be scary areas of town, and I find it fascinating. I've run into some very interesting people in the crevices of Shreveport, and I've never been harmed. Sure, I've been threatened, and that's all fine and good, but they have the personal choice to do so, I like to communicate with other people as human beings, instead of assuming their entire message and life story before even meeting them.

You keep buying your dope in back alleys and you will meet a bitter end. You sure sound like you could use some help. Open your eyes boy this world will eat you with out a burp. Sad is what this is very sad our youth think this the way it should be not all youth but I have a nephew that has been down this trail and he is still there after years of "being in control" he thought and now in and out of rehabs that teach him how to get his junk and hide it too. Devil is in this big time.

If there is no Mohammad, no Jehovah, Shiva, etc, then you believe they are not actually believing in true dieties, but have personal beliefs of their own, that are "incorrect" in your eyes, am I right?

You seem to persecute those without your belief, yet your Holy book specifically states that you should outreach to those who share no beliefs, meaning Muslims, Jews, Buddhists, etc, not militantly assaulting them and ignorantly standing your ground as if you had something to truly fight for. Why don't you purposely subject yourself to a forum of persons that don't share your beliefs? Wouldn't that allow you to see more than one side of the picture? Maybe there are truths to things you're not aware of, mainly because, you're not aware of it. It appears you and others are continually subjecting yourselves to a daily treatment of Christian propaganda, rather than purposefully experiencing the intellect of other human beings, you know, those lesser peoples who don't believe in your Imaginary Friend.

Oh, and, by the way, if you weren't aware also, your Christian God, Allah, Jehovah, and all other Abrahamic sects believe in the, get this: same deity. If you also weren't aware, Jesus is the most quoted prophet in the Qu'ran, read up sometime, and stop prejudicing against persons you don't even truly know about, the fact is, you just don't care, and that's all the satisfaction you need.

Seriously, Wolf, turn your caps off when you post. If you, by chance, have trouble seeing the text, you can always use a slightly larger font style.

Also, as I may not agree with Isaac's point of view, I'm certainly not rude enough to tell him he is wrong. How different would I be than him then? It's true that Christians once slaughtered us Pagans. But it's also true that the Romans slaughtered Christians during the time of Nero and they made it a sport. In short, we've all had our turn at the chopping block, so there's no point in dredging it up now. ZERO persecution is the goal here, my friends, and I say that to everyone.

One would assume you are heading to the hospital because of an emergency, NOT a frivilious decision like taking the short cut through the dark ally on your way home from the bar.

You're also not man enough to stand up for and defend your own beliefs. Are we supposed to be surprised you wouldn't tell another individual they're unfounded beliefs are wrong?

It's not a question of being man enough to defend my beliefs. Of course I am! However, for what purpose do I need to defend my beliefs here? Is anyone attacking them?

You mean besides every time a christian tells you your polytheistic beliefs are wrong and I tell you belief in imaginary beings is wrong?

tough call seeing as how you won't express your opinions on religion unless asked a direct question....and that's assuming you don't just choose to "turn the other cheek" like normal.

AnimeSpirit 05-02-2007 12:40 PM

Oh, alright.......I disagree! Are you happy now? I defended my beliefs.

Seriously though, if you want to know what my beliefs are, just ask. But I'm not gonna discuss it in a Christianity thread, very rude. If you want to PM me with questions or jump to another thread, by all means.

The idea is this, Brain. Pagans and their related traditions do NOT discuss religion unless prompted. Why? Because such discussion may be controversial to people who do not share the same beliefs. It's just good manners. It's an act of respect for those of different beliefs, despite what our opinions of them are.

Now, if someone comes to this board to put Pagans down and actively criticize our ways, then I will likely step forward. However, I'm not about to stick my nose into debate that doesn't concern me (i.e. Atheist vs. Christians).

And finally, the implications you make that I'm immature for not standing up for my beliefs do not concern me at all. I do not care what you consider "manly." This is absolute.

Saying I disagree isn't defending your beliefs. It's merely an indication that you "disagree" not WHY you disagree.

I'm not asking you to share your beliefs, I'm indicating your glaringly obvious desire to avoid religious conversations, with christian, at all cost.

Yeah, just like the coward turns the other check because some other liberal-ass coward told him it's the right thing to do. Don't stand up for yourself, someone might get offended.

Nice try kid, but it's like Scarletts' signature. I'd rather be hated for what I am then liked for what I am not.....Do you understand what that means?

I'd rather be hated for NOT being a christian than liked because I didn't state otherwise....which is exactly what you do unless directly questioned about your specific religious beliefs.

I don't seem to recall you piping up when Isaac was calling anyone who supported separation of church and state, THE VERY FIRST AMENDMENT, a Socialist.....but I DO recall your "turning the other cheek" comments.

Feel free to point me in the direction of the thread where you did anything more than disagree with Isaac and I'll be more than happy to take that into consideration....until then, I can only go by what I have witnessed NUMEROUS times in the last 3 months.
