Saying "I feel sorry for you" is a pretty self-righteous thing to do... I know that you probably feel passionately about your views and I am sure that the object of your pity feels the same way about his/her views as well, therefore saying "I feel sorry for you" is a judgment call that should not be made. Ok the only reason you had to comment about my "self-righteous comment" is because you agree with this Russell guy. Where were you when he made that weak judgement call of saying all religious people are deprived and stupid. All of a sudden you are this beckon of diplomacy when it comes to my comments. | |

Also, I do feel sorry for this russell person not because of his beliefs (well not all together), but because of his attitude. | |

Nope... not at all... I didn't read any of the other stuff and only accidentally saw your post. Like I said, nobody should "pity" someone because their views are different. I certainly do not pity religious people because they are not possessed of the same insight as me. Pitying someone implies that you believe that you are above them spiritually, intellectually or otherwise. SUPERJOINT RITUAL - http://www.superjointritual.com

--- It is not a surprise that most comments that are negative about christianty are made by ignorant people. They have not taken the time to study the religion to understand that no Christian person would use their ability to witness as a means to manipulate people. --- CTazeRussell no you're right. it is the founders and persons of power in your church who control and manipulate you. you are left weak and powerless to help yourself because of your fear of hell, and because they tell you about all the "evil" that exists in the world. --- Unless you know something I don't know there are no Christians grabing people off the streets and forcing them to join a church. I decided to be a christian!!! No one is manipulating me !!! I am not a weak person who cannot make it in life. The lord helps those who help themselves and I have done a lot of things with the lord's help | |

vivid said: Have to say I agree with most things the offender said. And I am not ignorant - I was raised as a christian and participated actively in my local church for many years. Then I came to a realisation that it was nonsense. I have since studied religion in depth, even going to live in an islamic country to find out about it. And I still think they are all nonsense - interesting, but nonsense. Buddha was pretty cool though, along with Jesus. Just a shame thte latter didn't leave a more positive legacy.
But... he/she was a bit of a dick in blocking u. i think it all comes down to choices... because each side sees something that the other side doesn't see... | |

Nope. each idea is accepted as truth by some member of each opposing party... anyway... important thing is, make this truth your own... don't merely believe something because someone else told you to believe it. | |

SignOthetimes said: CTazeRussell said: truth be told, i just didn't want to talk to her. the note was a response to something she wrote in a forum and i included her quote so she would know to what it pertained. i suppose i could have just sent her a link before i blocked her, but what ever i do it how i see fit. those of you who don't agree with my senitments, can die early and in pain by ignoring your body in favor of someone elses lies, that your perogative.
No, in fact my life is not deprived at all. I'm actually paying closer attention to my body and soul by denying what's bad for me. I'm filled with more love than I ever have before. By wishing someone else to die is another sad, sad projection of your ignorance. I feel sorry for you. So, you can have your cheap sex and your beer and your drugs, and temporary thrills but I have something that is everlasting and true, I have God. You have yourself. Good luck with that... what the hell are you talking about? i don't have sex, i don't smoke, i don't drink to get drunk, i don't even eat fast food, drink soda pop, or anything with partially hydrogyniated soybean and/or cotton seed oil. i value my health emensly and i'm a very happy person when i don't have to fight with insensitive inhuman religious freaks on this board. don't tell me what i do and don't do stupid! | |

What I am trying to understand is how people KNOW who is right and WHO is wrong, only God can do that. Man you ain't nothin' but I chicken, you still could have at least wrote her back through org note, then this could have been a personal thang "only god can do that" if god existed. why do you act like that is the undisputable fact? you know what, YOU know the answers to right and wrong. they are inborn, they are clouded later by people who want you for their own use. if you want to by those lies, that is your choice. what the hell is an "I chicken"? | |

FamMaw said: It's just a shame that in a community such as this there is so much in fighting.
It's a cliche at this point to say "can't we all just get along?" but can't we? We're here with a common interest and we should try to focus on what we have in common rather that our disagreements. Besides that it's the internet. You don't really know anyone here, and certainly not enough to wast the energy it takes to "hate" or argue. Here's a big old PLUS SIGN for you from Conneticut! We Need that up in here! Peace be with you! | |
