I like pictures. They are be more easier for I can read them better. Sorry for being a dick...but I'm a dick. Hope you stick around, actually. I need more fresh meat to argue with, as many of the others have proven themselves unworthy of my retorts. Just keep it short and sweet, as I have the attention span of a 6 year old ADD sufferer.

Flatearther Posted September 14, 2006 Author Share Posted September 14, 2006 Short & sweet is what I do when travelling to a folk festival - or avoiding parking tickets - or a Chinese restaurant. But you could try the unbthinkable - read the original argument & put yer 2 Rouble's worth in. Radical. Debate? It'll never take off. Cheers! Flatearther.

Look fella, you can try to suppose I avoided reading your post because I'm to dumb to do so, if that makes you feel better. The truth is, I'm not going to read thousands of words from a new member that walks in here and overdoses me on reading material. Standard method of operation in a debate forum is to start a debate with a subject, make your point and rebut when responded to. You could try participating in some existing threads, as opposed to starting half a dozen new threads of your own, with long time consuming content that frankly, we aren't going to bother to waste the time to read it all. Why do you think Builder said to you "I'll read it later"? He likely does not have the time or desire, nor do I , to read all that. Quote i am sofa king we todd did.

builder Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 I suggested this board to Flatearther, Jhony5. He has a thick skin, which is rather a prerequisite for GF. I'm just wondering if some of his comebacks will be too subtle for some here. He also does a good housebrick toss when the mood arises. I had to go take a shower after a hard day's work. I'll read his post right about now. Quote Persevere, it pisses people off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phreakwars Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 In reality, all religions start out as Devil Worship, because of the universal truism: “Life’s a bitch, and then you die!” Therefore, it’s not unreasonable to assume that when the wise ones of old concluded that some Super Being actually and deliberately created this mess – he had to be, in essence a truly mean hombre indeed! What in the living hell are you talking about ?? Devil worship ?? I am a Deist, I worship no one but God. The standard method of coping with any cruel and powerful human tyrants is to attempt the mollification process - lavish gifts, exaggerated flattery, outrageous compliments, etc. The unstated ploy is to emphasize their kindness, their generosity, in the fervent hope they might actually become so through the influence of suggestion and persuasion. This, basically, is what all worship is about – the offering of gifts and flattery in the hope of getting off the hit-list. Don't buy that theory either... My version of worship to God only requires me to enjoy what he has given me on this mud ball we call Earth. Read objectively, the Bible reveals Jehovah to be one real mean son-of-a-dude! Capricious, cruel, prepared to wipe the whole Human Race for some trifle like masturbation, yet concurrently indulging, to excess, a vicious, psychotic thug like David - by the simple virtue of his dancing naked, in praise of the same God. I wouldn't know, I only read non-fiction books. When suddenly faced with a savage dog that one might prefer to kill immediately, had we the means, we desperately say, instead, since we lack the wherewithall: “Nice dog! Good dog!” in the panic-stricken hope that it will let us live. We understand, too, that faced with a savage God [ which is merely Dog spelled backwards] the same rule applies. The Biblical God [isaiah] says: “I, the Lord God create all evil.” They didn’t think he was a nice Being at all. They regarded him as a devil. They did not love Him [who could?] – they feared Him. Who wouldn’t?This is true... I never could understand the logic in worshipping someone you fear. In classical world folklore, the Devil is usually referred to politely as ”Good Sir” or “Good Fellow”, etc. in the hope that this will deflect his wrath. The ultimate in flattery for the Devil is to refer to him as “The Most High God!” which is what Christians, in particular - generally do, since it would be pointless to worship a kind and loving God. Do we shower praise on kind and generous people? Of course not! We mock them for being na Quote https://www.facebook.com/phreakwars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a refreshing change. In real debating forums they usually gripe about too flimsy a case being made with no backup material. In real debates (where they actually can read) they welcome the gist of your idea and are astute enough to entertain the wholle concept rather than being spoonfed predigested headline slogans. But I can't assume you could handle the length of a couple of paragraphs in a school newspaper either (you're obviously a pre-highschool kid, right?). Which words have got you baffled & struggling for comprehension? If it's stuff like 'and', 'the' & 'but' , then I've got the remedy - just pull your typing finger out of your brain (the one you sit on) and tap the words into Google. That should keep you amused for a few days. Meanwhile, leave the hard stuff (thinking} to the grownups. What a laugh. It's like a hospital being complained to for making too many people get better. Or a butcher shop carrying too much meat. Why not use your strongest talent - watch the cartoons on TV. Nah! Too advanced. Take in a rodeo - under the bull. Cheers! builder wrote: That ism is about fatalistic values. Religion is about everlasting life. Religion has never been about 'everlasting life' and you well know it. Religion has always been a political manipulative system run by criminals and thugs. ALL religions are criminal organisations and the whole reason for their existence is the pursuit of MONEY & POWER and have always been hand in glove with all the other 'isms' invented almost on a weekly basis, and the popular ones (blockbuster big sellers) are always run by the current Castros, Mao's, Adolfs and Josephs. Religion has always been about the fairytales used to scam the suckers. There is more evidence for the existence of Superman than there is for Jesus. The heavens were once crammed with "Divine Deities' & then they narrowed it down to just one of them - for 'spiritual' rather than material purposes? Spare me. Even a pregnant duck can see the blatant facts steering the premise of my thread. I just assumed you were brighter than a duck - bright enough to 'get it'. Give me a break.Cheers! snafu wrote: I guess builder is trying to tell us is that flatfoot is his butt buddy, so we should take it easy on him. Wrong. My buddies have to have brains to qualify - and a sense of humour. I just assumed I was walking into a forum where 'Debate' actually takes place. I also assumed everyone could read well enough to spell 'debate'. We all make errors. No need to 'take it easy' on me - I'm big enough & ugly enough to handle any other 3 kids in the sandpit. Talk like a pirate, too, if you want to & if it makes you feel bigger. Cheers!. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, PW! What I'm talking about is the same thing that your great ancestors & mine were talking about in the dear old days before computers & theological colleges and gay bars and even before writing and music. How to survive. They'd even sacrifice their children to appease the "El Gigantico" lurking outside who was evil enough and magical enough to splatter tham all against their cave wall if he got pissed off about anything. Back then, there was a god for every damned thing they could imagine and rituals were the order of the day. Slowly it all got boiled down to just one "Divine Fuhrer" and organised religion was born. What I've read of yours tells me that you're quite savvy - enough to 'get' the drift of my thread (more than I can say for Builder). I reckon we're basically singing out of the same hymn book. Cheers! Lethalfind wrote: You have the internet version of verbal diarrhea...its not impressing anyone. In fact your coming across that your trying too hard. Figures your a friend of Builder. It would be so refreshing if someone just picked up an actual debating point and THEN got into the personal insult stuff. Mind you, I'd be the last to begrudge you your cheap amateur psycholgy satisfactions, but really, I don't mind if someone gets a bit of accuracy just some of the time. Ah, well. If I have verbal diarrhea, then you have the solution to one of the great mysteries of modern physics. How marvellous to contain an absolute vacuum in one's head and still not be abhorred by Nature, no? Builder is no more my 'friend' than is Casper The Ghost - so you can spare yourself that bit of futility. Try debating. It's actually quite good, once you get the hang of it. Cheers!

Gee, LETHALWIND, not only are you thick as two Maoris, but totally oblivious to the fact that since I joined yesterday, a whole pile of folks are ALREADY debating with me, because unlike you, I actually have something to say. There's a twist on a debating forum, no? All my threads have got the replies, responses & retorts rolling just fine - which, I gather is like, the whole idea, no? So what you might need to do for your own comfort is jump back into that great Egyptian River - De-Nial and keep those worry beads buzzing.

Christ, NN. what's gone wrong? Someone who is actually NICE to people, & who 'gets' what I'm talking about, including Der Fuhrer, Phreakwars, and with the exception of Brickhead Lethalwind, who can't even spell 'evil'. Great summary, mate, let's join a cult or something. Seriously, though, to get a grasp of the concept, you need no more than a cursory glance at, not why Hitler went "Sieg", but why so many of his fellow krauts stood cheering him on and responded with all the "Heils!". There haved always been more followers than you can point an Arab at, but there's always definitely a vacuum of leadership. So, when a Castro or a Mao or some other goofball comes along, the plebs just line up automatically and take any despot in preference to none. It's really a social reflex to organise around a popular dictator - automatic like breathing. It's the nature of the beast. As for the projections- ask those like myself, who can remnember far enough to the days of the 'Cold War' when the mighty Soviet Empire looked like it was going to be there for the next miullion years - suddenly they're gone and the only difference is that the thugs no longer wear official uniforms. So it will be with the Islamic world. They'll get taken over by Coca Cola and bikinis.They all secretly love decadence and will do anything for it. The women are too lively to not want to flaunt themselves. Cheer up, even though the nuclear holocaust we were promised was never delivered, there's always Japanese 'creativity'. Let us prey! . .
