LOL awesome

I'm curious...if God hates fags, and according to them God created all of us, why is He creating things He hates?

Most (Christians) will say that homosexuality is a choice.

Religious people give religion a bad name...

It sounds to me like most of you are just as intolerant as the Christians. Why should you be allowed to hate the Christian guy if he can?t hate you back? WTF do you even care? If you think the guys a loon walk away. Free speech means free speech not just the stuff you agree with. If you don?t want religious freaks on your campus ban them all not just the ones you disagree with. Where do all you people live that you have Christians busting down your doors preaching at you all the time.

Why should I walk away from my campus. I was sitting on the mall enjoying the nice weather and the krishna's music. He's the a$$clown why should I move?

This gives them opportunity to sue the university and quietly settle out of court in exchange for keeping quiet/agreeing not to come back.

It's extortion while hiding under the veil of our legal system and the First Amendment. As an attorney, frankly it makes me sick.

Interesting. I wouldn't have guessed.

Just one of many examples:

Hmm... interesting. So it's not about religion at all, it's just nutcases digging for money. For some reason, I'm not surprised.

Personally, I find nutcases of all types to be amusing. I strongly recommend either pointing and laughing or (better yet) ignoring them. No amount of force will ever stop people from having their own opinions (quite the opposite if anything), but as most nutcases are just attention-seekers, ignoring them really does make them go away.

Easy there turbo. Hate is a very strong word. Unless I missed a post somewhere, I don't think any of us hate the religious guy in question, we just think he's an annoying kook.

I'm not saying you should move, just that if you kick him out kick the krishnas also. I agree his is an Assclown but just because you think he is an Assclown doesn't mean everybody does. To tell you the truth a bunch of dam Krishnas would drive as crazy as the assclown.

Well I didn't really mean Hate as in bury him up to his head and stone him kinda way, more like a "Man I hate that kinda Sh!t" kinda way.

My thing is the krishna guys aren't forcing their religion on me. They are just chilling out playing the drum and accordion type deal. I would even wager they would stop if I asked them to. They have a little table with a brochure on it. If you want to talk to them go for it, they're not initiating anything. Then this a-hole preacher comes in ranting and raving loudly. He starts insulting the krishna guys and then starts insulting the women walking by. I don't hate the guy personally, but if he were to be struck down I wouldn't be sad. He is obviously capable of hate if he goes around calling outright strangers sluts and fags. If jesus had done that, he would have gotten the smack down much sooner than he did.

you can boot people for their conduct, just not the content of their speech ( assuming its not threats of harm and such)

With people like that, I get the idea that Jesus himself would have probably covered his own face as he walked by. "No, they're not with me, they mean some other guy named Jesus. They sure as hell aren't talking about me."

Satan did it, and despite God's claim to absolutely infinite power, he apparently can't stop Satan from doing certain things. Yes, it's high on Satan's priority list:

1) Fox's programming
2) Changing sexual orientations of certain humans
3) Democrats in power
4) War, disease, and misery




Edit: Dammit, I wish I could remember which threads I read and responded to.....damned tabbed browsing and multitasking!! Damn you Satan!!!!!

The new #1 on my list for Satan's priorities: 1) Screwing up people posting at ATOT

This is common in every major campuses.

At the UW in Seattle, the popular spot is the "Red Square", a large open court where students like to hangout between classes, lounge around on stairsteps enjoying lunch, and etc. It doesn't take too long until some nutcase, carrying a large wooden cross in one hand and a bible in another, come waltzing by and spew "Fire and Brimstone" at the "sinful" masses. The truely sad part is seeing his young children who accompany him carrying hateful signs. I just shake my head knowing that these children (who are most likely home schooled) will some day take their fathers place.

Ahahha, I've never seen his kids there, but I've seen the guy many times. What a nutcase.

Oh, and UW forevar. :heart:

Oh Snap! Brother Jeb is back, apparently he heard about the new guy encroaching on his territory yesterday. Hopefully that doesn't mean there will be two preachers on campus.

He also created people who were born before Jesus but are condemned to hell. Such a loving God

As a Christian, I wish that this hatemonger would get a sudden epiphany that Jesus loves fags, drug users... and, for that matter, Hare Krishnas!

Proverbs 15:1: A gentle answer turns away wrath,
but a harsh word stirs up anger.

The Krishnas ARE FVCKING NICE!!!!!!!!!! The preacher is an asshole who harrasses people to get attention. I see no reason put them on the same level. you're the intolerant one if you can't see the difference. All the preacher does is spread misunderstading, hate and intolerance. The krishnas usually just sell cheap food.
