I had a guy call me the Anti-Christ today. What did you do?

[Lunar Templar]

He called you the anti-christ? i would have taken that as a great honour personally! to have won an argument so fully that someone resorted to a cheap shot wear that with pride my friend.

this, so much this.

some one retorts with something asinine like that, then you have won sir.

First of all, stop posting in area where you are clearly not going to make any sort of difference. It's clear this guy wasn't going to listen so the best option was to simply stop reading if it bothered you. People hold religious beliefs deeply and someone that fired up already wasn't going to listen to anyone.

Secondly, from you're post you sound like a smug bastard who was so sure of his opinion and superiority that he couldn't see he starting an inflammatory argument. I have no idea if this other argument had the same tone but if it came across as such as this one did to me then it probably upset the guy and made him more angry.

Spoiler: WHA?

Seriously though why not take your own advice and not post here?

I was (NOT) trying to set my dorm on fire because I got a little too bored. Besides that, I took my College Algebra test. So nothing interesting on this front.

And OP, you're not the Anti-Christ. You don't seem to be some who enjoys fire as much as me.

So, you've probably heard about this whole "Oreo supports homosexuality" controversy. An old colleague of mine certainly did. After reading several rambling rants about the sin of homosexuality, I decided I had had enough, and posted a logical deconstruction of the Biblical condemnation of the homosexuality, essentially proving that the Bible doesn't care about homosexuals as a concept but instead condemns lust in all its forms, saying nothing on the subject of homosexual love given that the three contexts in which homosexuality is mentioned Biblically are, in order: A dodge for celibacy, a group of rapists, and in the middle of an orgy of unholy debauchery ranging waaaaay beyond sexual relations. Based upon these common themes and examining the historical precedents for social movements of this nature, I was forced to remind everyone how silly general culture and particularly the more respectable bastions of our faith view such events such as racial and religious suppression, and asked how we wish to be remembered by future generations in this respect. All in all, it was slightly inflammatory, but I felt it was a logical conclusion that I was prepared to defend.

In response, I was told that I'm the Anti-Christ. Well, not exactly in those terms, what he actually said was that I'm proof that it's the End of Days. However, that's close enough for me. It's official. I'm the Anti-Christ.

So, what'd you do today?

One time after delivering a pizza to someone, a random guy next door asked if I had one for him too. I told him I didn't work for the company he ordered from and got told "I was indicative of everything wrong in the entire world". So, yes, occasionally people have odd reactions to things.

Haven't had that today, though I did get scolded yesterday for not knowing the bus timetable off by heart despite the fact I don't live in the city where I was.

Sounds like you won the debate~!

What did I do? Spent all day writing an essay about a group work project we had to do - the one where everyone actively made a point to do everything wrong and turned our work into a mess. The same one that I spoke to the head of department about, who said everything was fine and that I was just being the stubborn. The same one that ended with the rest of my group and the head of department blaming each other for whose fault it was the project failed, the one side bitching at him for giving bad advice and the other blaming them for taking it.

It's hard to write an essay about an effectively produced project when I wasn't allowed to do anything and everything that was done goes against any vaguely academic point I could make. :/

Actually anyone who doesn't believe in jesus is technically an anti-christ, at least that is how the term used to be used, somehow chrisitans seem to think it means satan today but you can't believe in satan without believing in jesus or vice versa.

I've started training to do parkour. So far I know I have no upper body strength, no lower body strength, no core body strength and no cardiovascular fitness.
So this could be interesting.

Captch: Step Over
Somehow fitting with what I did today don't you think?

I would have laughed right in his face, told him that gay hate is so 1980's, and just walk away, laughing my ass off at his stupidity. Silly bible thumpers.

Because this poster is obviously not currently on a tie-raid about a religious subject and might be receptive to an argument.

Last day of summer school. Woo-hoo.

Now I'm gonna wait until Pyro update releases so I can play that all day long. I also ordered a Roxio Game Capture device sunday so that should be coming any day now.

And... That's it. :3

Until then, I'll be watching P4: Arena exibitions.

That seems like quite a conundrum my good sir. I suggest you walk up to each of them and ***** slap them for their ignorance. Pain is the best teacher. ^^

Well, I'd not be so affected by it, well... Unless you're christian. The bible defines the anti-christ as someone who isn't christian. Big whoop? I'd me more concerned if I got called Satan's Henchman or something like that, since I look awful in a goatee. But nevertheless... The end of days? Everyone thinks they're so special and the apocalypse will happen during their lifetime.

And what I've done today... Not a lot. Cleaned and been extremely excited - LESS THAN THREE HOURS 'TIL MEET THE PYRO! *valvegasm*

You realize your chances of doing that became nil after you called him a 'smug bastard'? Infact you yourself come off as a 'smug bastard' when using the phrase 'smug bastard'?

I thought the anti-christ was someone who wants to save humanity, but isn't the holy christ.

... or something.

So, what'd you do today?

Did a bit of writing. For a nation-wide contest. Nice prize if I win. $500 and an expense-paid trip to New York city to read my work in public, and meet with agents, publishers, editors, and of course, other writers.

Also talked a bit about the ME3 ending debacle and how the new DLC doesn't really fix a damn thing on another thread here, but I'll leave that alone for now.

But really... I'd like to see that post. Mind sending me a link? It sounds awesome.

And... I can understand your frustrations with idiots using religion as a pretext or excuse for their bigotry. While I wouldn't say I've encountered as much as the LGBT community has, I have gotten my fair share of it over the years, and I actually was called the Anti-Christ to my face once. You see, I'm atheist, and despite my best attempts to avoid it, I keep getting dragged into all kinds of ridiculous theological debates the instant a religious person finds out I'm an atheist. Unfortunately, I'm an honest person, so if someone asks, I tend to tell them the truth. Though, personally, I would prefer the term 'rational secular humanist', but it is difficult to get rid of a label the Catholic Church came up with centuries ago. Oh, and the 'rational' part isn't condescension on my part, its simply that I see myself as a rationalist as much as a humanist. And no, 'rationalist' is not synonymous with 'atheist.' (sorry if that seemed a bit defensive, but I've pretty much had to give this sort of explanation automatically for a good while now to sidestep a good number of arguments, only to find myself in somewhat different ones)

I worked an 8 hour shift at work, 6am to 3pm. I got in shit for being cheeky to a customer and I'm getting a disciplinary for it. See, I work in a supermarket and you always get those customers you just really hate. Now, there's this one particular woman that comes in every Wednesday and I've never really liked her, she kind of has this tone when she speaks to you, she's fairly rude and she never says thank you when you help her.

I'd had enough of this woman long ago but she caught me in a bad mood this morning. I was rotating the stock (I was working the bread, not that that's really important) and I was putting the shorter dated bread on the floor to put the new stuff at the back. She comes up to me and goes "You know, that's really unhygienic, putting those on the floor like that" with that same fucking tone. Yeah, the sealed up packets of bread on the floor that get's washed every morning, it's no more unhygienic than putting it in your bread basket or whatever when you get home.
Anyway, I wasn't in the mood for her shit so I turned round and said, with a fairly cheeky tone of my own, "What do you expect me to do with it? Make it bloody levitate?" unfortunately my boss walked right by the aisle when I said it. He wasn't very impressed.

Well, that's pretty overdramatic for a reaction to a logical argument. But I've been called a Nazi before so what should I know, right? -_-
