Yes, but have you accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior?

...and a car forum, and a relationship forum, and an audio forum, and a joke forum...

They are your punishment for saying "There is way to many of them."

Put the religion threads in P&N. The P&N people won't take their BS.

In the first 100 threads there are 4 religion ones and 9 car ones. I suggest that we stop car threads as there "be way t0o many" of them. :)

i guess it's just too tempting for you to not click on religion threads huh? so instead of exercising restraint you have to post this rant?

I'm not sure what your point is. You are saying 4 threads about an invisible man is comparable to threads about cars? NEWSFLASH: There is proof that cars exist and none that says God exists. Anyway...it is a bit disheartening to see someone get upset over a car thread. Millions of people haven't been killed in the name of Chevy, Toyota, or BMW.

Can't say the same for Islam, Judaism, or Christianity now can we? Terrible analogy.

FYI the original Offtopic Forum was created because the Religious Zealots were flooding the General Hardware Forum with their BS. Of course this is way before OT was infected with all the AOL Chatroom Kiddies and Neffs.

Another point, why should Religious beliefs be spared from criticism and mockery when it's perfectly acceptable to mock others Political beliefs?

I'm not sure what your point is.

OP says there are way too many religion threads.
I say there are way too many car threads.
Simple.

Neither OP nor I mentioned anything about invisible men or killing people - those were your inventions.

If you are disheartened by people getting upset over threads in OT then it probably isn't a good place for you to be. I'm not upset nor disheartened about any of them.


Terrible analogy.
I agree.

Here, I'll dumb it down for you since you seem to be fairly simple minded. We know cars exist. Nothing says God exists. Why discuss an unknown entity?

Right, let incivility reign!

Is that really what we all want here?

Does anyone else find it funny that a rant about religious threads has just become a debate about whether God exists or not?
