False dilemma predicated on a false equality.

If someone routinely announced they were quitting than showed back up in a matter of hours to a day, they damn well will probably get flak provided they pissed others off.

Your paradigm seems immune to a little thing we call "context".

Did you know that everyone is not the same identical cookie-cutter model with the exact same history and actions?

Shocking.

Be that as it may, it's a known fact that certain people round here get certain reactions for doing the same shit others do as well (and it's not limited to just this one thing, this sort of thing happens all over the boards.)

I don't see you on here much, so I'm going out on a limb to say that you probably miss much of what goes on here.

Anyway, that's my story and I'm sticking to it. Not that it's always a bad thing when it happens, but since others were commenting, I figured I'd throw my two cents in.

Well, I tried to leave. I managed for what, 3 days?
Mafia pulled me back in. I am still feeling kinda anti-social, but really, you guys keep me sane so leaving for a long period would be hard!

Aww thanks I don't know what you saw in me to say that but .. Heard that before and I'm flattered, thank you. Some might call it a character flaw as it makes me very gullible. But hell I don't care! I call it my "Survival Instinct" because I could not survive one shit day to the next, without finding some silver lining in something!
If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!

Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite.

Dead wrong.  The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.

Quote:Some people deserve hell.

I say again:  No exceptions.  Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it.  As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.

It is indeed one of your best qualities. Truly endearing. Your positive energy is truly wonderful.

"Refreshing"--perfect word choice, Moros. Smile

"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

Turns out I really did leave this time. What do you know... Doesn't mean crazy, retarded fucks who don't know the rules to the forum they're administrating won't use the opportunity to prop themselves up if I take a reconciliatory tone on my way out... You know, like an adult? Wink

How many fucks am I holding up?
Hehe. Didn't leave because of the forum and will return anytime I like(though not bloody likely). If anyone has a problem with that they know what they can do, don't they?

Fucking cowards, the whole lot. And some itty-bitty imbeciles coming out of the woodwork, for good measure.

Well, no. There are some sensible folks here who don't make their dramas about me. Kudos to them.

Still gone. Just dropped by to say fuck you to moron suckadick. K, thanks. Bye.
