Or a dirt nap... either way.
And yet they wonder why I hate them.

This entire thread is wrong on so many levels. Seriously.

and a hearty Sieg Heil to you all! Before this gets stupidly out of proportion, I ask the interjecter to keep something in mind. If you look from our viewpoint, there's nothing more destructive to society the world over than fundamentalist idiocy. Admittedly, I tend to sweep the moderates and casuals in with the Falwells and Bushs, but you can't understand our viewpoint until you've lived it. Take some goofy, tongue-in-cheek in-talking as just that, and don't judge all based on one instance. At least I can admit when I make that mistake. And remember, this is the Punching Bag. If you can't handle the unmoderated nature of someone's more emotional opinions, don't read this section of our board. ~Roger "I'm surprised its taken THIS long" Smith

and a hearty Sieg Heil to you all! Heh. Heh heh. Possibility 1) He doesn't realize this entire thread was a stupid joke from post #1 Possibility 2) He realizes this but doesn't realize that we realize this Possibility 3) He's an idiot Possibility 4) 1 & 3 Possibility 5) 2 & 3 I'm pretty sure it's either 4 or 5. BTW, is this what happens when Magnus forgets his password and decides he wants to start trolling and making himself look like a twat again? Or has he somehow managed to reproduce himself (somewhat akin to the way they do it in the Gremlins series of movies, I'd imagine) and am I actually mocking his "mini-me" version of himself?

i realized this was probably in jest, but hear far too much of this sentiment to the point that it really gets under my skin. as you pointed out, this is the punching bag, so i should, in theory, be allowed to rant about that. i came in awhile ago and made the sweeping generalization of the FA itself based upon a few members, nobody seemed to pick up on the fact that it was a satirical argument following the logic of too many non-Christians to judge Christianity based upon what some people who clame to be Christians do.

ps, as for the name change, i recently came across this older spelling of the name and decided that i like it better.

That's funny, it wasn't satirical when you meant it...
People who claim to be Christians ARE Christians. Consider this, your bible is self-conflicting, that means there is no possible consistant way for a Christian to behave. Almost every Christian claims to be living the word of the bible, be it with the kind of hate that Hitler had, the kind of hate that Falwell has, or the kind of hate that you show here. Christian, Christian, and Christian. Different flavors of the same mindless crap.Given this paramount truth, one is left with two options, either A) there are no "Christians," and never have been, or B) everyone who claims to be one is as much a Christian as the next dolt. Either way, it doesn't matter.

This particular thread is far from our most serious and mature. Your continued attendance , Magonus, seems to point to an interest in issues pertaining to freethought and religion. Feel free to start and or post on a serious thread and we'll respond in kind with formalized, logic driven debate. We'll probably still disagree, but perchance you'll witness our more intellectual and mature side and perhaps you'll start seeing us with a more positive light instead as a novelty or enemy faction. Maybe this message board hasn't quite illustrated our tolerance or "freethinking" in your eyes and perhaps we've both made generalites and judgements before knowing what eitherside is really all about. I for one am extending the olive branch one more time, Hopefully we may be able to understand eachother better....or it might prove you don't quite understand us and we understand you quite well and you just want to cause trouble. If that's not the case, prove us wrong and we'll all play with respect and intelligence.

as you pointed out, this is the punching bag, so i should, in theory, be allowed to rant about that. i don't know, though one should be allowed to rant in the punching bag section, i'm not so sure ranting about someone else's ranting is quite appropriate, as then it's like you're on the other side of the punching bag hitting it back at that person, and if you're gonna have two people on two sides of a punching bag hitting it back and forth at each other (this is meant to create a humorous image), why bother, why not just fight without the punching bag, or maybe i'm taking the metaphor waaayy too far

BULLSHITYou either have no idea what the word satire means, or you're lying through your teeth. Sorry, you don't get to back-peddle out of your past idiocies. Would have been better to have just pretended it never happened. Ian, pay him no mind. Do you not recall how the 'debates' went last time we tried having one with him? Go look up Magnus's old posts and tell me if you really feel like encouraging his continued presence here.
