You guys are soooo weird!:rolleyes: Don’t know how this got twisted into talking about white sheets and KKK. Once again, your little made up diatribes do not speak for me. I see that you simply still don’t get anything I’ve said, but I’m sure your cute little skits make you feel good.:smack:

Ha! Oh, that’s a good one!

Trust me, everyone gets exactly where you’re coming from. Don’t flatter yourself that people disagree with you because they don’t understand you. Believe me, it’s just the opposite.

Flounce, Flounce and Reflounce.

You see, **H4E** , we get what you’re saying.

You keep banging the same, simple, hateful drum.

You seem incapable of internalizing what those who are on your side are saying! (e.g. cjhoworth, Polycarp, et al.) Thus, it’s chowder and marching for you, missy.

I’m so ashamed of myself. I’ve actually masturbated at some point within the past year. I’ve fornicated too. I’m so horrible. I hate myself. The only reason I haven’t had gay sex is because all my directions are in Japanese.

God hates me. ☹

I thought you were leaving.

I’ve gotten what you’ve said. _EVERY_one’s gotten what you’ve said. Everything you’ve spewed here has come down to “Nyaahhh! I’m more saved than you, loser.” It may not be what you’ve _meant_, but it sure as hell is what you’ve _said_!

And babe, I’ve been called weird by a much better class of prig than you.

**Trion** , I think you got **Esprix** ’s kit, the one he uses to indoctrinate his dates! 🙂

**His4Ever** , everybody else on **Fenris** ’s satirical dialogue was a person who had some sort of _bête noire_ that they insisted on making an issue. With **FatherJohn** , for example, it was the evils of SUV’s – and also a disproportionate and irrational hatred of Pres. & Mrs. Clinton which somehow metamorphosed into a dislike of the size of the part of her body with which Mrs. Clinton sits.

You are not being parodied because you’re standing up for your faith – you’re being parodied for _the way in which_ you’re doing it – and if nothing **CJ, Guinastasia** or I or any of the other folks who’ve tried to discuss it with you has made any sense, then you really need to pray about what God wants you to be doing here – and _listen_ for His guidance. There’s no sarcasm in that – if you care anything for my opinion, I think you do have a mission, a purpose given by Him in being here, and that you’ve been **misinterpreting how to do it.**

**His4Ever** , **Fenris** is the finest and best known satirist on the board. In my experience, including this go round, he doesn’t take on targets without ample justification. His initial post and his post at 6:48 am this morning Board Time were intended as _satire_, not literal truth. He was called out on his Klan reference as soon as he posted it and the only reason I didn’t join in was I figured the subject was adequately covered. At 10:52 am this morning, he apologized for it.

You’ve been around here long enough to know that this can be a rough place. I’ve also warned you about the direction you were heading, and for a while I thought you’d turned around. It’s true that people do get thrown to the wolves around here, and **Fenris** is alpha wolf. He hasn’t inducted **Joe\_Cool** or **Jersey Diamond** into the One Trick Pony Chowder and Marching Society because they do talk about more than one subject. I’m afraid you don’t.

I suspect that after our exchanges of a week ago you’re not listening to me, but I worry that you’re being hurt and as part of my duty to God, I am obligated to try to help you. We’re not trying to make a martyr out of you. First of all, my understanding of your beliefs is that you don’t believe in formally honoring martyrs and don’t think much of those who do, given your views on Catholics and idolatry. Second, there have been enough martyrs in this world. You’re right. There are people here who don’t like you. If you tell someone often enough that they’re going to hell or that they’re sinful for something they believe they can’t help, and they will tend tend to dislike you. There are also people here who _are trying to help you!_ **Polycarp** , **Masonite** and I are on your side just for openers, and I suspect **Joe\_Cool** and **Jersey Diamond** are as well, not to mention a bunch of other “liberal Christians”. We’re not asking you to change your beliefs, although, yes, I would be happy if you changed one or two of them. We are asking you to show us more of the beautiful, unique human being we know you are because you are created in God’s image and therefore must be both beautiful and unique (yet another paradox!).

Oh, by the way, in my circles, “weird” is considered a compliment! 😃

Come on, please? Give it a try? There’s a cup of virtual hot chocolate in it for you, one made with real milk, chocolate, homemade whipped cream, and lots of marshmallows.

Gosh, when I first saw the username **his4ever** , I thought she was some lame young female stuck on her sweetie.

Nah, I just figured that maybe if I give her what she want’s, she’ll go away. With that in mind I’ll be sitting in the corner weeping and scrubbing myself with sandpaper.

Lekatt?

Whilst my paltry skill does not compare to Fenris’, I have some ideas.

Lekatt:Near death experiences prove the existence of a God who loves us.

KayKay:What kind of love?

Uekte:Old people should all die and stay dead. (glares at Lekatt) You look old to me.

Hiryuu:Did you know that the universe is a hologram?

Lekatt: Yes. We must all seek the spirit world.  
Lekatt and Hiryuu also share the same grasp of the terms “proof” and “evidence”
