that's the truth. unless it is so increibly stupid, i respect opinion.

quote:

---

That's the POINT! I do not care if you think what I say, do, or believe is "offensive." That's just it. I'm not going to shut up or be silenced by you, or anyone else for stating an opinion.

That, my friends and foes, is character.

No, that my friend is selfish, and speaking of not backing down, what happens when someone offends you? You threaten to sue them...come on Joey. Lose the act, you aren't better then anyone here, and you certainly aren't anymore right.

quote:

No, you take things out of context is what you do.

So put them back in context...the only one I see stepping up to the plate is Korith. Yet full context and all...I can still prove exactly what I'm saying.

quote:

---

Someone who does not back down when there is massive pressure...You don't read about Jesus ever backing down do you?

And his punishment was 20 billion times worse than mine.]

Again with the comparing himself to Jesus.

Why are all Christians Homeschooled?

That's an easy one. You take a look at society, and no, I'm not saying all Christian kids are perfect, but you take a look at society, and you take a look at government, and they've both gotten worse. Worse, worse, worse. Politicians take more of your money, and 10-year-old girls learn how to give head.

Now, you tell me, why are parents not pulling their kids from school?

quote:

Why are all fanatical Christians from the South?

---

If this is trying to offend me, it's not working. I know "fanatical" Christians are from all over, not just the south. Besides, what's fanatical? What's the south?

quote:

---

Why do all Christians use "are" instead of "our"?

---

Good question.

quote:

---

it's offensive and annoying isn't it?

---

No, Barrio, it's not. That's what I think might **** so many people off. It's the fact that I don't get offended that gets people so ...OFFENDED. I joke around, I laugh, I kid, I have fun. I am not so hyper-sensitive about every little freakin' thing. I'm just not.

This does not offend me.

I don't point out baseless facts about people, I point out facts written down and handed around,

quote:

facts from the Bible.

---

No, you take things out of context is what you do. Anyone can go into Leviticus Chapter 20 and pull out all sorts of stuff about homosexuality, and then in turn, say, "Ooh, it's not in the Ten Commandments, so that means it's okay![/QUOTE]

Now, I'm not saying YOU said this, just generally speaking.

quote:

...meaning it is offensive. Think!

That's the POINT! I do not care if you think what I say, do, or believe is "offensive." That's just it. I'm not going to shut up or be silenced by you, or anyone else for stating an opinion.

until that right is hurting someone else, get off the "everyone is out to get you" already. They are out to get you because you talk crap.

Here's a few maybe you should post Joey...

Why are all Christians Homeschooled?
Why are all fanatical Christians from the South?
Why do all Christians use "are" instead of "our"?

Riiiggghhhttt...it's offensive and annoying isn't it? I don't point out baseless facts about people, I point out facts written down and handed around, facts from the Bible. What you see is not representative of everyone in the world, meaning not everyone does what you say...meaning it is offensive. Think!

i'm sorry people don't respect me or my opinions and posts but i am still going to have opinions and still going to post things because i have a right to just like everyone else. so like it or not Avenger of god, Poncho, and othersyour going to have to deal. so when i move you move, just like that? hell yea

no, i will not respect your opinion...

i dont know, this is called- YOUTH NOISE. to me, the most noise is made when you are
1. arguing
2. on a sugar high
because the latter is not possible on the internet, i satisfy myself with the first.
and you may suck on it if you dont approve because i dont give a tinkers damn.

True dat.
But it's damn fun yelling.


Typing in bold. Whatever.

I could care less if you respect my opinion or agree with it or not, I'm going to utilize the First Amendment, and if it offends someone, they can lighten the heck up.

You people only "respect" the opinions you agree with, and hey, that's fine, but when it goes overboard and you try to silence people and call them names to silence people, then that, in my opinion, is hypocritical.

Some of you say you're all for getting rid of "the isms" or "intolerance," yet as I've pointed out so many times here, you people do the same exact things you "try" to fight.

I'll say anything I feel like saying, as long as it's not a threat on someone's life, and I won't be a little baby and compromise my Biblical beliefs and just "lay down the Bible" stuff.

To me, if you have views, use them, say them, express them. Don't remain silent just because someone demonizes you, or calls you names, or replies to a post not knowing how to spell simple words correctly.

If anything, this post thread should be renamed, "Do you try to silence people's opinions," and then, of course the answers would be "yes."

One thing is for sure, though. You cannot, and will not, get me to retreat. That, from the Replies, Views, and forum subjects about me, is evident.

I think that as long as everyone has a reason to back up their statement then they should be able to say whatever they want! adn if it means disagreeing with someone then its fine. STAND UP FOR WHAT YOU BELIEVE IN!

well, looks like we in this together!!!!!!!!! yes but hey i respect your opinion so yes i will let up on the bible. YOU ROCK!!!! thanks. to you haters: respect and ye shall be heard. see ya And (blows kisses to you) i love you too!

Wow, I didn't know this many people liked me. I feel loved! Thanks guys.

I respect peoples' opinions if they can back them up with a good reason.

And stop b*tching.

Hey, don't you imply that Futility is gay. I know for a fact that he is crazily straight.

And even if he was, he would still be a better human being in general than you.

or voltaire?

I might "respect" your opinion but I don't have to agree with it.

hmmmmm i forgot who said that...was it einstein?

You are misusing the word "respect," respect has nothing to do with agreeing with your opinion. I might "respect" your opinion but I don't have to agree with it. Disagreeing with somebody’s opinion is not showing a lack of respect.
But after looking at your profile I realized you're a hypocrite, so no, I don't respect your opinion.

Haha... and AZ you think what you said about cbabs was nice? Your both *******s. And Poncho and Futility Rock. And if you don't like them screw you. And cbabs and you think your being nice to people? I don't care if people don't like my views, or slam me about it. It's only the internet.

Dear A2Z:

Look! It's the main symbol of conservative politics! A fat ugly white guy who feels incredibly threatened by change that stereotypes things he doesn't understand out of ignorance! whee!

I've said it before and I'll say it again: I'll tolerate anything but intolerance. And you two OOZE it from EVERY orifice. And your pores.

But instead of being an illogical, bigoted *******, I will be a logical, reasonable ******* and just single YOU out as being a mother******. Because you are.
