    I like to think of God as more of a Texan...How else can you explain an innocent Karl Rove getting off the hook? And obviously he drinks Starbucks, shops at Wal-mart, and he's a vengful God. Soon...Very soon, the coin fountains will run red with the blood of the infedels..Those that decry the will of capitalism will be stricken down through the great corporate take-over...and those that succumb to capitalism will be stricken down because of their material obsession...

    Where is your reality? Because I'm guessing it's not anymore sane.

    Was your signature really edited by Kat?

    Absolutely! I've had the same sig, "Invite greatness from a retard and all you'll get is drool", for years on this board and I think the old board too. One FNG complained and I was asked, by Kat to change it, not told to. I told her I saw no reason to change it and the next thing I know it was deleted and I had a PM from Kat.

    Now if I had a sig that said "George Bush is a fucking asshole and Conservatisim is a mental disorder" you can bet your bottom dollar that it wouldn't have been touched for all the tea in China ;)

    I've noticed you often resort to the wild stab....You should run for president.

    Although on this one your fears are confirmed, run and hide, cos im a beard wearing muslim lesbian with a starbucks in one hand and a detonator in the other.

    That's what I thought, too, but then you see this quote where he was using it in a derogatory manner.

    Johny's in America

    Johnny wants a brain, Johnny wants to suck on a
    coke
    Johnny wants a woman, Johnny wants to think of
    a joke
    Johnny's in America

    I'm afraid of Americans
    I'm afraid of the world
    I'm afraid I can't help it
    I'm afraid I can't
    I'm afraid of Americans
    I'm afraid of the world
    I'm afraid I can't help it
    I'm afraid I can't

    Actually, somebody had "Liberalism is a mental disorder" and that did not get changed.

    What is a FNG?
    I cannot come up with a new sig till I get this egg off my face.

    Bummer. I remember your sig, I always wondered where you got it from?

    Furthermore, why would you have used that quote if you didn't agree with it?

    i had a few beers when i wrote that. and i don't think kurt used "gay" in a derogatory way, either. i think he meant gay as in lame or stupid. i just thought it was a funny quote, that's all.

    What's your definition of derogatory, then?

    To me, "lame" or "stupid" are derogatory.

    Is that what you think of when you see gay used that way?

  • God is definitly Canadian right now... i don't even know why it is being discussed... he's born in Mongolia and have set his home in the northern territories, close to the Yukon borders, he pays regular visits to his best friend, Santa Claus, when his agenda is not too busy... his son, Jesus, currently live at the Vatican, but i can't reveal his name...

    sorry. i was trying to say kurt didn't use "gay" as in homosexual.

    and no. i think when kurt used it in this particular way, he meant lame or stupid. that's just my guess. i think everyone uses it in their own way, depends on the person or what they are talking about when they use that word. i know when i say "that's gay" as in "that movie was gay" it just means sappy or just plain crappy. :D

    God is a Number.

    What you want to know, what can you believe?
    Grow up on the internet, get off on t.v.
    Tell me about God and Country, music, heart and history.
    Answer me with computations, answer me with industry.

    My definition is someone who has a negative connotation of the word gay...which you and Kurt obviously do.

    i think you're being overly sensitive. you really think it's so negative to label a movie "gay??" that's absurd. besides, don't you think it's a good thing to try and change the meaning of gay from "homosexual" to something as innocent as "sappy??" or maybe we should go back to it's original meaning which was "happy." either way, i think it's a good thing to try and move the word far away as possible from a homosexual remark, then people won't be able to use it anymore in a homophobic way. :)

    I think it's fine for the word gay to have a homosexual meaning. I do not think it's OK for it to have a negative meaning. Apparently, you do.

    this is gay, i'm out of here. :p

    but seriously, you make no sense at all. first you accuse me of being a homophobe for using the word "gay." then i tell you i don't use the word gay to mean "homosexual" and now you say you don't have a problem with it if it's used to mean "gay", but you do have a problem with it being used in "a negative way"(lame, stupid, sappy, etc.) but don't explain yourself to me, i'm afraid it will probably lead to more confusion. have a nice day.

    It's the same principle as Santa Claus... he knows when you've been bad or good, so be good for goodness sake.
    In other words... be good because you are being monitored and there are rewards and punishments attached to your behaviour. Be good and it's Heaven and toys, bad and it's Hell and a lump of coal.
    Your goodness is based in fear and/or want... not necessarily because of the goodness of your heart. As an example; You would think thay your charity should be unconditional... that is, no reward or congratulations attached to it. Nor should you be charitable out of fear. I would think that God wants us to be good because it is what we should be doing, not because we have to.
    That's how I figure.

    if you want to be technical about it, I'm pretty sure God does want us to be good b/c it honors him...we shouldn't do good b/c it elevates us in mankinds eyes.

    and no, God isn't American (had to keep it somewhat pertinent to the thread)
