All I was saying is if you have an army dropping bombs from planes causing 100x more casualties than they suffer themselves, you cannot look down your nose at a suicide bomber and say you have the moral high-ground. Dont pretend they are savages and christians are saints.

Just 'cuz I'm an anal-retentive farker, I'll point out that the Air Force, not the Army, drops bombs from planes. They would properly be termed airmen, not soldiers.

Fool_Marquis:
I gotta know... why wasn't this posted, you know, yesterday, when it became 6/6/06 on the international date line?

Yeah, I've got that problem too. When the world is going to end, will it happen according to US time zones or other zones. Cause, like, 6/6/06 has been pretty peaceful here in the +2 h CET time zone. You've got exactly 7,5 hours, Devil, and then it's 6/7/06 here.

In an unrelated (sort of) note, think of all the fun we'll have in 2012 when millions will go crazy with the OMG MAYAN CALNEDAR ENDS ON 2012!one! crap.

Joy.


I guess it doesnt matter to them that (to my knowledge) the Mayan calender ends in 2012 no more than the Julian(?) calender ended after 999 AD. Its like saying (now) that because we don't write the year 02006 that at the end of the year 9999 the world ends.

They will pray their asses off and when the sun still rises tomorrow they will claim credit for it. " See! our prayers worked!" Just like wearing a tinfoil hat to ward off aliens. You don't see any aliens, therefore my tinfoil hat is working. Great logic!

Then you missed the amusing story that they reported accurately and objectively. Try reading it from the horse's mouth instead:

Violent Day of Worship - June 6, 2006

We believe that the plans the enemy has for this date (June 6, 2006) will be destroyed through violent worship and praise. We are inviting the entire world to be part of this huge unity project. For this reason, we would like to include you, your Apostolic and Intercession Network to join us for this event so that a vast Majority of places will be covered all around the world.


Heh, dumb isn't it?

"Killing is ok as long as you are not willing to die yourself?"
Remember Patton:
"Now I want you to remember that no bastard ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by making the other poor dumb bastard die for his country."
And that's what it's going to boil down to, kiddies. Them vs. Us. A war. Because even the non-radical Muslims have proven, time and time again, that they'll support the radicals by various other means, including keeping their traps shut about suspected terrorism rather than "betray the faithful." Just ask even a non-radical Muslim how they feel about a Muslim who converts to any other faith- I don't give a crap if its Druidism, Christianity, or Flying Spagetti Monster. Then you'll find out just how tolerant they are. Ultimately the radicals want to convert the world to just one faith and make it a religious state.
Perhaps the best indicator of the radical Muslims was the fact that, during WW2, they got along splendidly with the Nazis.
Time to start judging folks by the company they keep, boys and girls.

Thanks ChuckRoddy.

I left alone my mind was blank
I needed time to think to get the memories from my mind

What did I see can I believe that what I saw
that night was real and not just fantasy

Just what I saw in my old dreams were they
reflections of my warped mind staring back at me

'Cos in my dream it's always there the evil face that twists my mind
and brings me to despair

Ugh, so basically, if this so called beast showed up today the fundies could claim victory in that they were right and not enough praying went on. If it doesn't they can claim victory and said that faith got them through this. What a bunch of crap!

Go to the "Ministry" section of the Ambassadors Ministries page and learn about Ana Mendez Ferrell. Here are some choice sections of her bio:

"Ana has an ordained Prophetic Apostolic Ministry. She is originally from Mexico, now resides in Jacksonville, Florida and is married to Emerson Ferrell. She was saved in 1985, while she was confined in a mental hospital after having been a voodoo priestess. The miraculous power of God totally delivered her and transformed her into one of His generals for leading His army to destroy the works of evil."

"As a general in spiritual warfare, she has coordinated many of the most important prayer initiatives in the darkest places of the earth, confronting major territorial spirits. The most difficult assault that she undertook was the climbing of Mount Everest in 1997. The result of that has been major breakthroughs in the 10/40 window. She was also the special task coordinator for operation "Queens Palace", which was the first worldwide prayer initiative that involved almost 75% of the nations in the world to war against a dominion of darkness known as the Queen of heaven."

"Ana ministers around the world in more than 40 nations training the army of God to tear down the strongholds of evil and usher in the glory of God."

Why would you admit that you were saved by God while being confined to a mental hospital for being a voodoo priestess? Is that convincing?

You fail math.


You fail Literature.

Specifically, biblical references [ The Four Horsement are Death, War, Famine, and Pestilence ] and Pratchett references [ where the guy you quoted quoted from ].

Muhammed: military leader - started a religious movement
Jesus: non military leader - started a religious movement

Lots of militant action takes place in the name of Jesus. I see no difference!

mentaluproar: I see no difference!

That's because you can't read.

See...one of the words was military leader. The other word was non-military leader. Now, I'll admit that they look alike, but they are actually "different." Non...is a prefix meaning not. So, the difference is...one was a military leader and the other was not a military leader.

Get you head out your ass.

...and the small fact that Pope Gregory XIII decreed that the day after October 4, 1582 would be October 15, 1582[pops] and we followed the new calendar from around then, (countries adopted it over the next two centuries)...

So where is your 6/6/6 now?

"Killing is ok as long as you are not willing to die yourself?"

...Killing is ok if you ARE willing to die yourself?

...Killing is ok if you are willing to dye your hair?

...Killing is ok if you are willing to hide your bear?

...Killing is ok if you are willing to bare your hide?

...Killing is ok if you are willing to bait your hire?

Conjuring Satan in a Fark thread is kind of redundant, don't you think?

My point was that people will commit "militant" acts in the name of Jesus. The argument still stands.

When the japanese started the kamikaze attacks in WWII we understood why they were doing it.

Yes, and we nuked the bastards. Are you sure you want to continue drawing this comparison?

Over-confidence is ignorance of faith.

Ignorance is faith in confidence.
