Quote from: Infinite 5'9" on September 24, 2008, 12:26:57 AM...enter Sarah Palin. And now all the bible-thumpers are giddy because she is one of them.Don't even get me started on Palin. Anytime she opens her mouth (which they keep to a minimum nowadays), she is trying to incite a religious war. Pitting Islamic "extremists" against US soldiers who are fighting "God's war". Unbelievable.

Quote from: King Sikotic II on September 23, 2008, 11:59:15 PMMcCain spat in Christian's faces, and once he realized he needed them to win the white house, he gets that conservative bitch on his ticket, and the evangelicals come flocking back to him like 12 year olds to a Souljah Boy CD.Christians are conflicted individuals.Word!That's exactly what happened. Its almost like these Christians were just begging for a reason to support McCain. They knew they couldn't support the blue-turbaned Islamic anti-Christ Obama, and they wanted desperately to have a reason to support McCain......enter Sarah Palin. And now all the bible-thumpers are giddy because she is one of them.

Quote from: Low Key on September 24, 2008, 01:29:48 AMI'm not christian for one.Then why do you always seem to talk like one?Quote from: Low Key on September 24, 2008, 01:29:48 AM I never said suicide bombing was the ultimate evil, although it is pretty bitchmade, and it certainly shouldn't justify salvation. The purpose of any major religion I have ever heard about is to prosper and propagate, not off each other.Nearly every religion, and especially Christianity and Islam have had a great deal of history involving the concept of martydom. If you need examples I can give them to you but it should go without saying. If you must have me explain the concept to you it is where a worshipper sacrifices their own life for what they believe to be the greater good (doing it for God, defending against oppressed people, standing up for their principles, beliefs, etc. And they believe that God will reward them in the next life for this) This concept of martyrdom has deep and extensive history in Islam and Christianity. Unless of course your talking about the Joel Olsteen positive thinking brand of Christianity...but that is something new. Quote from: Low Key on September 24, 2008, 01:29:48 AM The only christians (used very lightly) who would possibly cast their votes based on that bible story are those crazy fuckers from Westboro Baptist Church.Are you kidding? Scaring the Christian sheep into voting Republican has been a hugely popular and very successful political strategy for the last few decades, especially. It started with Jerry Fallwell's movement to "restore Christian values" to American society and the political associations he made.
I'm not christian for one.

Did the entire christian faith make a press release or something? What a ridiculous claim. Don't let the idiocy of a few cause you to make sweeping accusations...if there even is a church claiming such things. For all I know Infinite, you could just pulling this out of your ass.What if I said all muslims must be suicide bombers because the few I have heard about happen to be? Pretty ridiculous statement, huh? Please post relevant topics. Or at least back up your claims with REASONABLE evidence. That precludes hearsay.
I'm Christian..but I'm not "that christian." Geez, it's annoying when those religious freaks can't keep the religion out of poltics...
