    Just let us know when your violent temper is under control.

    When you can tell the difference between a quote, "you said this," and a question, "You mean this? Please explain." I realize that grammar is hard.

    Let us all know ehen you arrive beyond petulance and can explain how you think churches have an unequal tax burden? After all, we do all pay taxes just like everyone else.

    Let me know, please show us all, where I claim you said anything at all? It is your challenge. Go ahead and show us where neutral says, "(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*) bag said this!" Go right ahead. And then take your own challenge and its consequences.

    Hop to it youngin' - but don't expect anyone to treat a temper tantrum from a young adult any differently then when a 2 year old does it.

    You failed your test again, totally unable to discuss things without getting personal. And still wrong to boot.

    Just a demonstration of how civilized, intelligent people do it.


    There is Margot asking a question.


    Should I be following your tactic and ...

    USE REALLY BIG LETTERS TO CALL MARGOT A LIAR? Notice that is a question?

    Or should I just correct the misunderstanding and move on without putting words in Margot's mouth? Without issuing rediculous 'challenges' and absolutely blowing my stack?

    Hmmm ... and interesting conundrum for our young, temperamental hero.

    Heh heh. So I'm the one having the tantrum? Yet it's your post that has to be censored by the forum software? Oh Neutie you are a pill! :mrgreen:

    Hey look who it is!

    Agh, petulent back pedaling and a refusal to own up.

    Let me know when you dontation has posted.

    You failed the test again, and childish lashing out will not help you recover from the aftermath of childish temper tantrum.

    And now, you just seem to have disconnected from reality, the ego of atheism is a powerful thing.

    Well, all the hot air could fill a field full of balloons with this hot head.

    Having seen your temper destroy another thread, I'll leave you with the last word.

    Hope its not as pathetic as the previous attempts, enjoy the crow.

    I've found that ignoring the atheists saves a lot of time and frustration. By now, this should be apparent to you as well, I think.

    Ignoring problems does not make them go away.

    Not that ALL atheists are problems, but if no one stands up to the lies ... well, who will.

    I do like your thread though, where you ignore them at their most repugnant - its kind of funny, keep it up :smile:

    Just remember, I was once an atheist, and if that experience taight me anything, it is that God does NOT give up on us, no matter the justification we give to do so.

    I agree with you, and I think your thread is quite entertaining, but I think ignore is a rather harsh word. That might be why so many take offense to that idea, and it may just stir them up, or even turn them away from the truth even further. Which would do them no good in the future.

    There's nothing untrue about what you say here. The reason I ignore them is because I don't consider myself obligated to endure their incessant and vicious beligerance nor the detestable things they say about the God who I love so dearly. They have no one to blame but themselves if they push away the very ambassadors of heaven that might have guided them away from the path of destruction.

    Will you take away tax exempt status for all Protestant Churches that support continued apartheid in Israel as well?

    I agree with the Cathlic Church. Open boarders will keep the US a free nation. If the Cathlic Church loses there tax status because they push for amnisty, then Islamic churches should also lose there funding for pushing Jihad against The Great Satan :twisted:

    1. It isn't the Catholic Church doing this, it's a few renegade bishops

    2. We don't change laws in this country by not enforcing them or openly defying them. We change it through the constitutional, political system.

    There's no excuse for promoting lawlessness and frustrating the enforcement of our laws by refusing to cooperate with authorities. These people should be incarcerated like the criminals they are.

    Tax exempt status isn't revoked because of political positions you find distasteful, it's revoked when churches break the law by becoming a PAC, funnelling political funds behind the protection of tax exempt status.

    Just a few bishops with some balls to take a stand for what they feel is right.

    We change laws by protesting them. Getting popular support to change laws threw the political system.

    So keep the abortions flowing... It's the law. :twisted:

    Today it's the Mexican immigrents, tommarow the militia people, then maybe the rich, then maybe the religious. I hope you stand against persicuting people. When the persicuters come for you, people like me might not be around to defend you.

    I disagree. We are a nation of laws and when the rule of law is undermined, we become a democracy in the worst sense of the word. Mob rule. You think rights are being trampled now? Just wait until laws are cast aside and people just simply grab whatever they want. I'm fully aware of social evolutions, enough to know that only the enforcement of the rule of law can keep the barbarians at the gate.

    I didn't know we had "barbarians" at our "gate". I didn't know the walls were built yet. How do you propose we handle these "barbarians"?

    I know...Lets get an army with all the latest gear and slaughter them. Then move from villiage to villiage burning them to the ground punishing these "barbarians" to ensure they stay in the hell they live in and stop loitering at our gate.

    How do you deal with "barbarians"?

    The only difference between the way you want to handle immigrents and the way I proposed, is you want them taken alive.

    Oh no. You didn't get hoodwinked by one of those campus preachers did you? Brother, there is help available. All you need do is ask. But you have to be ready. It is never too late to get your life turned around and get back on the right path. Oh! I so hate to lose one...

    Wow, that is relevant and on target. And of course anyone pointing this out is guilty of trolling and generally not participating because losing ones mind is considered acceptable t atheists who have stupid points like claiming churches somehow have an unequal tax burden in the non-profit world.

    So let me make this clear for you. I give money to charity all the time, but I won't give a cent to anyone because some petulant cry baby is to dumb to know what a question mark is AND to immature to answer one like an adult.

    Whether you agree or not ia simply not relevant.

    Any more personal pot shots will simply be reported. Feel free to have the mods, those with power and authority on this board, enforce you stupid challenge born of being too stupid to read a question and twisting it dishonestly into a quote.

    Otherwise you are justa trolling internet bully, and as you know I detest cowards who can only insult from behind the safety of the internet.

    Any more out bursts on this subject will be reported fo trolling and personal attacks. Period. This is the second consecutive time you have interrupted a thread to pursie a temper tamtrum - it is not accepable.

    Huh. I thought you were giving me the last word. Well, I'm glad you didn't because as you know, irony is my favorite literary device, and had you actually kept your word and given me the last, uh... word? Well, we'd not have been treated to this delicious little gem:

    Neutie, you take the cake m'boy. But no surprise here. "Do as I say, not as I do" seems to be the battle cry of the faithful. If hypocrisy were an Olympic event, you'd win the gold medal.

    Now you can have the last word. My work here is done.

    Care to show evidence for your assertions?

    I see you are currently banned, I knew there was something fishy about you.

    This quote was of someone else not you. We were not raised to hate anyone, BTW hating us has been popular since Jamestown.

    Easy with the strawman already, non cooperation and obstruction of justice are not even close to each other. I have a right to remain silent, and the 5th amendment protects me from self incrimination, so by right I do not have to cooperate with LEOs; it’s odd you didn’t know this, I thought all Americans knew about the bill of rights.
    True, because your logic and posts are so sad.
