If these resident theists really talk to god..
RE: If these resident theists really talk to god..
A thousand words, eh?

Tl;dr.

At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

A true christian™ would just stop the evasive actions, close his eyes and pray. Drich is still piloting his ass off. Berry intermesting...

Granted, you're totally allowed to do just about anything here...

That's asking too much from some people.

Hard to compare Drich and what he considers to be a keen tongue, with a skilled fighter pilot, and his ability to escape an aerial attack. There's nothing keen or evasive about Drich's maneuvers. Drich would be more accurately compared to a child dumping quarters into a Galaga arcade after repeatedly crashing. Our experience of this would be similar to our watching a child waste his money, and being unable to sway the kid into making better decisions with where he dumps his coins.

Well the point is you kinda expect a quiet type of resolve from professed christians, particularly when the logic and odds are stacked against them. Dogged determinism appears foolhardy. If a cop pulls you for a cracked tail light, but only gives you a warning, do you smack the officer in the back of the head for not seeing things your way? I sure as fuck don't.

Good point. The only tricky part is having an idea what to expect from any professed Christian. There doesn't seem to be any 2 versions that profess the same ideas. There are simply too many different brands of that form of crazy.

Again if this were true, then where were you, or anyone who kudoed your words, when I was being told by a half a dozen members that I should have died of AIDS?

None of you were Anywhere to be found. Why? Because of the double standard here. Only atheists are to be treated with kid gloves, and are to be honored and respected with word though and deed. Christians, can be verbally shat on, and no one cares. It's not only acceptable, but seemingly mandatory..

What's worse? I am expected to be greatful for not have been ban for breaking a nonexistent rule... Which is about as stupid as a cop pulling you over and telling you that you should be grateful for him not taking you to jail for not breaking a law! The fact that you have broken no law is evident! The fact that someone wields their authority over you, to remind you that they hold the power of life and death in this place over you and that you should be grateful to them For not destroying you and what you have work here for, is unjust, and oppressive.

Maybe that is why we write things down over here. So that power hungry self righteous English douche bags, can't just make up shit as they go along, and expect everyone else to play by some unwritten rule that only benefits power hungry, self righteous English douche bags.

Over here we strive for equality for everyone and not conformity, which seems to be the common thread in this thread. I will not conform to anything you are demanding I conform to, and the real reason I should be thankful that I have not been ban, is because I have been allowed the basic human right of free speech and I have used it against my English 'lords.' Rather than falling in line like all good chaps do.

If you want me to fall in, then make a rule that mandates me/Christians to fall in. If you want your one sided arguements, then make a rule that says Christians are not allowed to talk back, if you want to be treated with kid gloves then make a rule that says you need to be treated with kid gloves, while you shat on everyone else. In short just stop pretending to be liberal, open minded, free thinking douche bags. Take off the masks you hide behind, and just be who you really are. You're only fooling yourselves anyway.

Put it all out on the table so I can decide to stay or shake the dust from my feet and move on.

Either that, or nut up, and learn to take your lumps when they are given back to you.

Do you know why I like this pic? Because no matter how many rockets were fired at me, none of them landed. Just like in the pic. ;P

That, and no matter how bad it looks the pilot is still in the cockpit, sticking things out.

A) They're not rockets
B) It's not real
C) If it were, it would be no different than catching a facial expression on somebody's face while falling. Ultimately, they hit the ground. And ultimately, this jet is toast.
D) You may be sticking it out, but it's no different than a fool rolling a single die, and expecting to roll a 7. However determined you may be or convinced of your potential success, you're still just a fool.

Which brings us to....

E) You're an idiot.

Stuff like this doesn't happen either...
