<slightly-sarcastic>Rumor has it that someone is trolling the soapbox with a mindset much alike those who shit in their pants at the sight of a picture of Mohammed. You might be branded as a Christian hater - not too dissimilar from a Jew hater - a.k.a Nazi.</slightly-sarcastic> :rolleyes:

That's not really a good comparison because you didn't attack Jesus or the Christian religion, but instead stated that you wonder why we have Christians. Beyond being bigotted, it appears that you believe that you should be rid of them completely. Now I may not be an expert on this subject, but that sure seems like an endorsement of genocide.

I don't think there is a retard emoticon that would fit your perceived state.
Well...At least it's only a "perceived" state.

Yeah, that would be me. I made fun of espeir's typo, and now he thinks I'm advocating Christian genocide.

Go back and read your original post: Yeah, why do you have Christians? Were you picked on by one when you were a kid? Vincent picked up on your misspelling of the word "hate" and ran with it. But you didn't get it, as usual.

Sorry. Not you. Vincent did.
Yes. You saw right through me. I'm advocating Christian genocide -- all religions, actually -- to further my goal of creating a new, pure, LEFTIST, Marxist, socialist, communist, atheist, evolutionist, scientist, secular humanist authoritarian utopia. Of course, that would include killing everyone who belongs to my religion, including myself, but you can't make an omelet without breaking eggs, right? I'm thinking about calling it Stanistan, just to piss Stan off. Besides, Espeiria sounds too much like a flower, or maybe a tropical disease.

I think it is evident that muslim and christian fanatics think the same. Say anything against their precious beliefs, and you're the vilest creature on earth. Luckily, countries in which christianity has rooted itself, secular governments have been established, thus preventing theocratic law enforcement. Living in fear can't be good.

Sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me. You dumbass.
Wow! That old chestnut Forced into a Haiku form... You're half-way to wit.

I got it the first time. But that's no reason to make a bigotted anti-Christian remark suggesting genocide.

Yes, they do. And I guess Hindu fanatics would be the same too. Regards, Nish

The Ultimate Grid - The #1 MFC grid out there!It's funny how certain religions gets more exposure than others. Especially so when there must be almost as many hindus as there are muslims for instance. Are there half a billion hindus, would you say? The only fanaticism coming from hinduism that I know of, is the mistreatment of women in some instances where marriages have gone awry. Well, the pre-arranged weddings is a bit hard to understand from my point of view, but I suppose that could just as well be attributed to a totally different culture, instead of being attributed to fanaticism.

Just the fact that you seemed to get upset over it, as if it had offended you. I'm curious, what religion (if any) do you follow? A religious person would probably not have resorted to name calling over some fictional story. Alvaro

I think there must be about 750 million Hindus in India, and possibly another 20 million outside India. Regards, Nish

i wasn't upset at all, really. i was merely calling it as i saw it. i could see the humor in it, but i try not to take enjoyment with humor that is made at the expense of others.

what specific religion i follow is irrelavant, but i am christian, or i try to be anyway.

name calling
actually i said the "story" was bigotted. i didn't say anything about you. and, like i said, i called it as i saw it. i'm pretty sure if i had posted something similar where the subject were people of the protected-class du jour, then it would have been called bigotted by others. So, I honestly don't understand why it's ok for others to say something is bigotted, but it's not ok for me. it's pretty clear that "Hank" represents a "god figure" while "Karl" is his "earthly representative" or "prophet" and the "letter" represents the religious writings of any number of religions (take your pick). Mary and John, then, represent that religion's missionaries. So, it's a pretty clear slam on religion, in general, and on the proselyting kind in particular. It makes one wonder why it's currently so fashionable to knock about people of a religious persuasion.

Let's leave not leave out atheists who place their faith in science while being ignorant of its details.
Strictly speaking an athiest doesn't necessarily place their faith in science. They just don't place their faith in theistic dogma. a-: Without; not -theist: one who believes in the existence of a god or gods := one who does not believe in the existance of a god or gods ColinMackay.net Scottish Developers are looking for speakers for user group sessions over the next few months.
