I don't understand humans.

Are we sure that speciation isn't currently in progress? Or is that me being hopeful?

That's because you obviously didn't see "Planet of the Apes 2" where future Christians worship the atom bomb.

Really, Charlton Heston bailed out of that movie only to come back in the very end just so he could fire out of one weapon he didn't before: the atom bomb. That was the only way they could lure him back. I mean there was a guy with a real passion for weapons.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

I notice the churchies trust their congregation so much they had to block the loading port. Pair of fingernail clippers and that problem is solved. Then you could go all Kingsman on that congregation.

Can you really say you're taking your own religion seriously when you decide to do something like this?  I mean blessing an inanimate object?  Seems like something you might do with a child and their security blanket, but not for an adult.

I guess they went a bit materialistic on that one :/  But surely a man shall not depend on his tools alone, one needs to have a fresh spirit for carrying out through the day Smile

Sorry. Did not want to quote your statement here, but why would you think that God is for Adults? Children of young age and Children of Old age are still all Children to God the Father Smile

Is this like a modern day equivalent of a Tupperware party to drum up sales of AR-15s? Mr & Mrs Smith don't own an AR-15 but the church is a big part of their lives so go out and buy one so they can feel part of the community.

I'd like my AR-15 upgraded even further.
AR-15 of Undead Bane. On hit deals 1d8+2 per user level of good damage to undead. Vorpal hits deal an additional 3d10 good damage. Useful against MAGAs and fundies of any denomination.

I've made a stand against guns in church, I will not attend a church where they allow members to carry within the church building. I have my reasons but I'm sure they couldn't interest people who do not believe in God. So I'll just say that I see it as totally wrong.

You would have done 6d6 + 6 damage for 7 rounds had you been using the Divine Hammer. A bonus of 2d4 for each undead you attack. If your hammer is in melee with an undead, you get an extra attack in. 

You people really don't know how to choose your weapons appropriately. Dodgy
