HELL
RE: HELL

"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

Not at all. It makes perfect sense to me, personally.

Of course it does, because everything is red when you wear rose colored glasses. I find this is what makes atheists such a sound position. You take the problem of evil for example. You have different people coming up with different and convoluted answers all the time and when you stack that next to the evidenced assertion that god(s) are man made constructs the apologist explanations are so childish and muddied in their thinking.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

If he were less consistent in his bat-shittery, I'd call poe. As it is, he's a shining example of how not to be a christer.

Regardless of whether we have clocks or calenders or count days, time still goes by. Everything around us gets older the longer it's been in existence, because time goes on.  

We just can't fathom being "outside" of time, if you will.

To a certain extent, I can fathom being outside time. QM survives quite well without time or causality. But all this would be a topic for a different thread.

"How many minions would it take to fuck these bananas?"

"I don't think you understand how jokes work..."
Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):

"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42)

On my old, long defunct sci-fi forum, we had a competition where we added emotes and named them after members.

We also added so many bloody emotes it was insane.  We had the one you posted, lines of dancing bananas, lines of dancing penises, and all types of weird and wonderful insanity.

Radio program!

I honestly believe that a show featuring GC, Drich, and Professor would be a mighty, mighty tool for deconversion.
