sinners. you should all think about repenting.

I find this post interesting. I think it should have been deleted after the first few reply. That said, I find the responses somewhat revealing to me. The negative comments are most likely coming form the liberal side of the house. You know, the ones that preach tolerance, diversity, acceptance. 584 views and 40 responses. If you don't like the original post why didn't you ignore it and move on? All the replies has just proved one thing to me, but then again that's my opinion and I'll keep it to myself.

God bless us all. ;)

Because its entirely inappropriate and therefore fair game to ridicule... I don't actually take offense to the post.... I see it as more of an opportunity to heckle someone who had no business posting on this forum in the first place.

Interesting thread.

Gospel is unilaterally offensive - which is prob. why so many people are pissed @ this thread.

It's often said the best witness for Christianity is - Chrisitans &
The worst witness for Chrisitanity is - Christians.

Anyway - Bush doesn't repesent all Christians by a long shot - as I said the Gospel (the fact we can't save ourselves & God did it for us in spite of the fact we don't deserve it) offends:

1) Conservatives - who don't like the fact that there is social injustice in the world & we're called to work against it - that the poor will be amongst us & we're called to minsiter to them (the Bible DOES NOT SAY God helps those who help themsevles - we are called to help the weak) That we're called to 'turn the other cheek' - that Biblical strength lies in weakness not bombing our neighbors. Jesus, Son of God - died on a cross in the ultimate act of turning the other cheek.

2) Liberals - who don't like the fact that the world is not realative - that being a 'good person' is not going to get you anywhere b/c you can't earn favor or points with God. That there are penatlies to breaking the law - that we can't define God's law - that he in fact has designed it. That not everything is permissiable.

The gospel hope is that the broken world we all live in will one day be renewed (Jesus is the ultimate envoirnmentalist) - that when the kingdom comes - all sad things will become undone - that heaven is not us going up, but a new kindgom that comes down and restores the world to the way God orginall designed it - and that we'll experience ultimate Shalom - or God's peace.

Pretty amazing.

Sorry for the rant, but I was a hardened agnostic dabbling in Eastern philosphy who moved to NYC and seriously never wanted to or intended to become a believer, but it happened.

I rest in the knowledge that I'm never going to be able to get it together. I think deep inside I always understood that, and I'm thankful that God got it together for me.

This thread has grown another star :eek:.

Un - believable.

If this is OK for discussion - why can't Shannon post more photies of lightly clad young women? Far less offensive and divisive in my opinion.

Is religious cant OK because it's PG 13 rated?

There are people on this forum who find this type of cyber-proselytising disturbing. If it's OK on this board, how about some equal time? If someone was to post a thread quoting some of the Qu'ran and admonishing non-believers in Islam, We'd see how long that lasts.

Sorry, this is totally the wrong place to talk about this, but your comment hit on something that I happened across the other day (in my daughter's study materials) that was a new insight for me...

According to Catholic teachings: all people are created equal in terms of inherent value (see also our Constitution), but not everyone has been given equal "talents." Accordingly, it is the duty of those with greater talents to help those with lesser talents, and conversely, it is the duty of those with lesser talents to accept the help of those with greater talents.

This hit me, because I quite often go through life pissed off that I'm always having to help out the idiots that I work with and live with (probably others feel that way about me). This little "teaching" made me rethink my position.

Again, sorry, wrong forum, but we're just talkin' here right?

Everyone's got there beliefs, sexual preference, and political views...and you know what? That's just fine....but they are PERSONAL, and it is inappropriate to preach, flaunt, or pontificate in MOST public settings, including this forum for example.
So keep them to yourself or stay on the Christian forum and philosiphicate yourselves until you're enraptured.

It's just this kind of sneaky self-righteous clandestine behavior that this miss-directed AFriend-dude or dudette has created that gives the Neochristians a bad rap.

So if this thread isn't deleted, our little friend can come back and have his own self-pleasuring session...
So tell me, what good has this cloaked and lurking aggression gained for his/her righteous cause?
Nil, it is anti-productive.

But then, Fundamentalists don't see it that way do they?
Because like all Fundamentalists, they believe there way is the ONLY way...
"Yer either with us, or agin' us!"
Sound familiar?

now, I suppose I'll be labled a Liberal...give me a break.

Live and let live.

Hail Satan!

Mr. Dog, you flaunt your bizarre views here all the time, many of which are personal in nature and not related to motorcycles. In this post, you label others and then get defensive at the prospect of being labeled yourself. Intellectually dishonest.

All you have to do is ignore it - it will be deleted, I'm sure.

See you Saturday....

Natas Selur!!!;)

This thread seemed OK at first because it was harmless humor. Poking a little fun, posting funny pictures. Some were a little offended, but more by the spam attack than the message, I think. afriend is probably like those guys that drive down the street throwing bibles on every doorstep. A shotgun approach to many BBS services, not even looking back at this one. So, being that its here - it is fair game.

As far as religious types that are suddenly counting numbers of views or posts in an attempt to measure interest in god or satan or the Qu'ran. I wouldn't bother. Its all just entertainment and you're reading too much into it. Its winter, people are bored, and it showed up to hammer at (like a godsend!).

And as far as the pictures, thats been decided by the moderator and the person that owns and pays for this board - no point rehashing. There's a new BBS you can join to see pictures if you want, just find the link on Shannon's posts. Its basically the same people from here that want more "adult" content, and one reason it was created was exactly for those reasons. Not to keep trying to change the format over here - which won't happen. That board is always looking for new members.

Too bad the fool knocked upon THAT door too. Might we instigate a Satanic raid on their forums? :D

Gotta love the compassionate, caring, love-all-as-my-children Christians. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Read the "I must confess a few things" thread. :rolleyes: Troubled kid seeks help from freakshow. Freakshow advises troubled kid to stop punching the munchkin and everything will be fine.

stop evrything
stand vewy still
don't even breath
think only clean thoughts
now kiss your arse g'bye...

Dude, they are downright SCARY over on that place. It's like the NeoCons in power who are trying to bring about Revalations because they "believe" so strongly.

Impeach Bush!

I tried to start a thread there, but their mods preview all topics. A$$hats can spam us but we cant spam them. I guess thats about right. :rolleyes:

no yeti, it's because THEY're right...

Here's a passage from one thread I just scanned. Its in regard to a recent event in Ohio where one of the rivers briefly turned red.

"I remember a Bible code where OHIO mentioned, DEATH FROM OHIO was encoded in with DESTRUCTION OF AMERICA.... is OHIO now God's testing ground on which direction people choose to take this country ... the place where people decide as a nation where they stand with GOD? It seems like it to me and the red river a sign that there will be judgement based on the decision comming out of OHIO....just a thought.....the Christian protesters, the fight for the presidency, the plan to blow up an OHIO mall, it's all happening here...."

Freaks.

extremists of any stripe are dangerous.
The extreme right, who want to force thier version of thier religion down my throat while pounding thier bible in one hand and thier meat in the other...can kiss my azz.
The extreme left, who want to render all religion illegal and remove from me any means to defend myself whilst pandering to the politically-correct-movement-of-the-moment...can kiss my azz.
The one extreme movement I can appreciate and understand...is the movement to extreme.....hangtime....those MX'r kids and thier arials...seatgrab superman, 360 degree flips while doing a 150-foot-long jump...now there's extremisim I can appreciate.

Amen Brother Jony.

Oh by the way, I'll be in church this Sunday...

Yeah, me too...depending on the weather, it'll either be the church of the holy berm, attended by me the high priest of nitromethane and the KTM acoylites, or the tabernacle of the holy curve, attended by the Michelen Mullahs...

I'l be leading my Flock over the Mountains of the Holy Crest...believers and non-believers alike.

The fun continues here too! :rolleyes:

Not again. As a Christian, seeing this kind of stuff here probably pisses me off more than most. If the rest of you want to fire up the age old tradition of feeding Christians to the lions, I've got a pretty good idea where to start. You'll probably even get some of us to help.

hey, not to disturb your train wreck of a thread here, but that original spam is what's called "viral marketing".
it's kinda new and so far ain't working so great.
then again, that's never stopped a spammer before.
.......brad

ErricZ you aright about those NUTTY NEOCONS.James Watt under Reagan made a comment about nature conservation being "useless" because Jesus will return soon!!I will try to find the exact quote and post it later.This Jesus and Allah business may be funny in this situation, thanks to the holy roller who made the first post,but folks we have MENTALLY ILL people running the show in D.C.They are hell bent on creating an enviroment favorable for there "Armageddon".And they are doing a pretty good job at the moment.If it happens will it be God?Doubtful.Just a bunch of sheeple led to the slaughter by the fundamentalist fanatics-Christians AND Muslims:(

So Brad, using a "viral" they can automatically register, log-in and post on a large-scale basis? Do you suppose the Guzzi board got the same message??
