I know, you just didnt word it very well

a "gay act" is some aspect of gay sex..I think some forms of christianity recognise gayness, which is fine, just so long as you dont engage in the "act"

your wording implied that marrage was a "gay act" which I found pretty funny
Ah. So this was an attempt at being witty, then. ;)

Which forms are you referring to? A "gay act" could refer to sex, dating, or marriage. That's what I meant by it, anyway.
so you find everything about gayness to be wrong? I dont get that..even if your religion says so it doesnt matter what other people do...it doesn harm me or anyone

Oh, and I found ME3 to be an amazing game all around with only a minor hiccup with its ending.
I agree....I can understand how the ending might put some off repaying but it doesnt undo all the awsome fun I had the other 99% of the time

Yes - I do.


If you don't believe in Jesus and what the Bible says, it's pretty difficult for me to argue my point.

Anyway, it may not directly hurt me, but God is still against it; therefore, so am I.

Serious matters: Most Atheists are asswipes. Oh you don't believe in god? Well shit you're automatically better than everyone who does. Moreso while you sit bitching on the internet for unfathomable amounts of time. (I'm saying this as someone who doesn't believe in god. I just hate how it isn't discrimination when atheists do it.) Same thing goes for Theists, but they are a lot less vocal unless you bring up homosexuality. (then it's 50% trolls anyway)

The death penalty is justice, I'm glad my country still supports it.

Abortion is wrong if its heart is beating. Contraception is fine. But there comes a point when it stops being about the woman's body, and it start being, ya know, a fucking baby.

Non-Serious matters:
Bad Religion is way more punk than the Clash.
Call of Duty isn't killing the game industry.
Magic the gathering is far superior to pokemon.
It's called soccer.
And whatever you call it, it's boring as hell.
So is every sport! (but at least with rugby and stock car racing there's a chance for a hilarious injury. Sadistic? Kinda. But i don't care)

Hmm, okay then...

Religion is, overall, a bad thing. There is no God, that's pretty plain to see for anyone with an open mind. The case could be made for religion still being beneficial for humanity regardless of its basis in fact, I don't personally think that's true, but it bears discussion.

Faith is the abnegation of reason. Reason trumps faith in every respect.

In response to the post above, yes, I am better than people who believe in God in one way at least, that way being the functioning of my rational mind. That said, a person who believes in God may very well be better than me in any number of other ways.

The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand is the best book ever written. Atlas Shrugged, on the other hand, pretty much sucks. She overreached herself there, but her thoughts on individual responsibility as expressed in The Fountainhead are brilliant.

People who feel genuine anger towards the underclasses don't understand the complexities of society.

People who think that I've displayed inconsistency in those last two points and would like to discuss them with me should do so :)

I assume you're also against haircuts and never wear clothes with polyester blends.

Do you yell at girls for having "braided hair" because it isn't proper and biblical enough?

And fortune telling, do you refuse to eat/open fortune cookies?

Hopefully you don't wear any pearls or gold(like say a wedding ring) because Timothy asserts how unchristian that is.

There's a lot of non-virgin women around dude, havent you read the bible? "But if this thing be true, and the tokens of virginity be not found for the damsel: Then they shall bring out the damsel to the door of her father's house, and the men of her city shall stone her with stones that she die: because she hath wrought folly in Israel, to play the whore in her father's house: so shalt thou put evil away from among you." (Deuteronomy 22: 20-21)

You'd better get out there and throw some rocks at women, unless of course you aren't a good Christian.

except of course you also have to be a pacifist at the same time "But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also." (Matthew 5:39)

And I hope you don't have tattoos, because the bible explicitly forbids those.

And you've never masturbated, or used a condom, or pulled out during sex, or had sex with a woman on her period I assume?

And while we are on that vein: "But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart." (Matthew 5:28) I sure hope you have never looked at a woman and thought she was attractive if she wasn't your wife, because that would make you an adulterer.

Do you have a brother? Because if he dies, the bible says you're supposed to fuck his wife.

Have you ever picketed outside of restaurants that serve oysters, crabs, shrimp, lobster, prawns, clams, pigs, rabbits and told them they are going to hell? I assume you don't eat those things either, right? Because God hates people who eat those.

Oh and if you cut off a child's balls, they are going to hell and may no longer become a Christian. Which makes perfect sense, how dare an infant let itself be overpowered and abused, it deserves to burn in eternal hellfire.

Oh and don't forget female teachers, they are condemned to hell as well, for having authority over men. You should write some letters to your congressmen to get teachers to be exclusively male, lest too many women be sent to hell for their sins.

Oh and while you're at that, be sure to ask them to reform the justice system to cut off the hands of thieves like the bible says.

But of course after you cut off their hand, make sure you give them all your stuff because: "And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloak also." (Matthew 5:40)

Have you been keeping track of your mother? I certainly hope she has never prayed without wearing a hat or shawl because if so you should fear for her eternal soul. "But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head..." 1 Corinthians 11:5

Oh and don't forget retards or just plain weird people:
"For whatsoever man he be that hath a blemish, he shall not approach: a blind man, or a lame, or he that hath a flat nose, or any thing superfluous, Or a man that is brokenfooted, or brokenhanded, Or crookbackt, or a dwarf, or that hath a blemish in his eye, or be scurvy, or scabbed, or hath his stones broken. No man that hath a blemish of the seed of Aaron the priest shall come nigh to offer the offerings of the Lord made by fire: he hath a blemish; he shall not come nigh to offer the bread of his God." (Leviticus 21:18-21)

Oh here's another good one: "For every one that curseth his father or his mother shall be surely put to death: he hath cursed his father or his mother; his blood shall be upon him." (Leviticus 20:9)

I hope you've never cursed your parents. You were never like 11, and said "i hate you mom you're the worst. I wish you would just go away" right? Because if you ever did that... man you should kill yourself. And if your parents didn't kill you they must be pretty big sinners.



Man you know that like 70% of Swedish people are unbelieving atheists/agnostics who reject God?: "If in spite of this you still do not listen to me but continue to be hostile toward me, 28 then in my anger I will be hostile toward you, and I myself will punish you for your sins seven times over. 29 You will eat the flesh of your sons and the flesh of your daughters."(Leviticus 26:27-30)

Holy fuck man, we had best stay out of Sweden they are all baby cannibals right?


Pictured: Godless Swedish Cannibals, presumably preparing for a baby murder spree.


Oh wait... that is unless of course you just like to cherry pick things in the bible like its a fucking buffet. Oh yeah this is the word of God: fags are evil, oh wait but this passage is out of place I like me some rabbit stew, oh here's one non-Christians go to hell: I'll have some of that, no haircuts?: nah I'll just ignore that one. God only really means the bible passages that I arbitrarily agree with because my parents/pastor raised me to be human silly putty, right? With an emphasis on the silly.

I think two or more people thinking the same way or agreeing on any point is a bad thing. The moment they start thinking somebody else thinks they're right is the moment they start thinking they are on a quest to rid the world of evil. This works with absolutely any opinion you could possibly have.
I ...agree.
Now we shall purge the world of evil.
Mwahahahaa.

The world would be a funny place if agreeing with anyone was considered a bad thing all the time.

I hate most Bronies. Not all of them, but most of them
I enjoy Runescape.
Nathan Drake isn't a tosspot, and I don't see why people hate him.
The 2008 Prince of Persia game wasn't crap.
Loading Ready Run isn't as funny as most people make it out to be. However, Unskippable and Feed Dump are highly underrated.
Dubstep is my least favorite genre of music.
The only good Oasis album was Morning Glory.
America is overrated (Coming from a Kiwi).
The Starwars prequels weren't that bad, and Jar-Jar Binks was kind of funny-ish.
I find nothing wrong with the use of Comic Sans. It's a nice and friendly font.
The Clash are the best band.

How many fan groups have I pissed off?

I don't like chocolate, it makes me physically sick when I have any (actually that goes for a lot of rich foods).

I can't stand Mariah Carey, her voice is way too screechy, like nails on a chalk board.

The best snack in the world is the sandwich (any sandwich, that includes burgers)

Silent Hill 4 was pretty awesome and I didn't mind the degrading weapons since I never really bothered with the combat unless I really had to, anyway.

Velociraptors are nowhere near as cool as Deinonychus, which is actually what the dinosaurs should have been called in Jurassic Park; Velociraptors are tiny things, barely even bigger than a turkey.

I do still get annoyed when people confuse dragons and wyverns, most "dragons" you see are actually wyverns most of the time.

Why would God keep making homosexuals if he didn't like them?

I hate the gay community. All of it. Absolutely, unapologetically hate it. Why, you ask?

THEY STOLE GOD-DAMNED RAINBOWS. ASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSHOOOOOOOOOOOOOLES!!!

I mean, the rainbow was always kind of a fruity thing to like, but it never meant straight-up gay until the gay community adopted it as their symbol. I don't hate gay people, and I'm not against any of their causes, but seriously, fuck them for ruining rainbows. Fuck them all! You can't just "claim" the visual light spectrum! You can't!

Another, more rational unpopular opinion I have is that people are people, no matter who they are. They deserve a chance, even if their government is evil, or their religion has a few whackjobs that make said religion seem crazy. Dividing the world into factions, or even worse, enemies and non-enemies, causes nothing but strife. You may think this shouldn't be an unpopular opinion, and I agree, but it is, especially in my line of work (the US military). Now I can understand why some of my coworkers have adopted a "from enemy country = enemy" mentality and I don't hold it against them. I just hope they'll learn to see things the way I do in time. But this doesn't just apply to the military, it applies to anyone who sees someone with a different opinion or just someone who works for someone with a different opinion and thinks "that person is the enemy." Things are never so black and white.
I don't hate the gay community, but I don't think that being so in your face about their sexuality will make me accept them any more than I do. I am not homophobic, I believe that homosexuals should have the same rights as everyone else as they are people, but the way they campaign for their cause just annoys me. Hell, I've been friends with gays in the past, but some of them really annoyed me with their attitude towards anything that could possibly offend them. Hell, I make offensive jokes around them one day, they're laughing with everyone else. The next, they're practically getting a lynch mob together!

I don't like people forcing their beliefs in my face. Christianity, Buddhism, stuff like that. I don't believe in God, but I believe there is an unimaginable force that is beyond human understanding - God doesn't cover it. Could say I'm an agnostic, but when Christianity steals ideas from other religions and changes it around a bit, it just loses my faith in religion.

I realize these are responses to things posted pages ago on this thread, but I was busy taking a 9 hour long engineering licensing exam yesterday and was to exhausted to respond. (A side note that really has nothing to do with the topic at hand, but I just really really want to say it: FUCK YEAH THAT STUPID EXAM IS OVER WITH!!!!!!!!)
That exam was fucking horrible. I took the FE exam yesterday to. What discipline did you take in the afternoon?
Sorry to go off topic.
I took Civil in the afternoon. It was pretty awful. Civil has a lot of different random topics, so there were a few sections I just had to answer C and keep going. Like steel design. Ugh.

Which one did you take?
I actually took Civil as well. I thought the elctrical and thermo questions were pretty tough in the morning since I had not effin clue what was going on so I guessed on most of them.

Goog luck, I hope you passed.

I think that the world should be rid of governments and true anarchy should be given to all.

I'm well aware of the negative consequences, but the true freedom is in my opinion worth it.

COHERENT, that is COHERENT and Well informed political debate is welcome. (Anyone who claims that anarchy means chaos is factually wrong, look up the definition in a dictionary before you post if you are under that impression.)

What about dyslexics? It's not their fault.
They're an exception, but really, take a good look at all the forums on the Escapist. Do you think that ALL OF THOSE PEOPLE are dyslexic? I doubt it.
