I’m amazed and appalled that Lolo could find a board like this, a place populated by some of the best minds and hearts humanity has to offer, all working towards a common goal, helping and informing each other, and all he can think of to do is rattle off inane blather designed to piss people off. The shame of it is, that Lolo will never appreciate the opportunity he’s missed. But that’s okay. We won’t miss him either. ---

…sound like a dancing monkey? (You know the kind, on a string, with a funny hat. **“Lolo the dancing monkey.”** ) First, could you kindly expand upon your statements? What exactly is it that makes Christianity so pathetic? What is it about the religion that bothers you so much? Second, as a Christian, your opinion doesn’t really bother me, cause it speaks worlds about (a) your ignorance and (b) your personality. Following the ways of Christ=compassion, humilty, generosity, kindness, forgiveness and a whole host of others. Now, I’m not saying (at all) that you must be a Christian in order to pursue these beliefs; in fact, many religions do so in their own way; and many none religious people do so. Further, you can hate religion all you want. But to single out Christianity with no explanation is stupid and silly, not to mention highly reflective of who you are (as a jackass). ---

I suppose it would be considered computer hacking and a crime to drop some sort of virtual hand grenade down his IP hole, wouldn’t it? Could a moderator PLEASE block his IP address and keep him the hell off the board? First one on it gets free beer! ---

You still haven’t justified your comment that “christianity” is fading. You haven’t defended yourself from the accusation that you are uncapable of reasoned debate, and there are a lot of atheists and agnostics making that claim. You also show you have no control over your emotions by constantly firing off insults and then by starting a thread that states that Christians are immature children. Maybe you need to “wake up and smell the coffee” ---

I second **EJs Girl’s** suggestion that we ban Lolo. He just admitted he was trolling all along. ---

I think we should lock **Lolo** into a small room with **SavedbyJesus** , and just ban the survivor.[sub] If there is one. Heh.[/sub] ---

Nice one, **Lolo**. You admit you’re just trolling, which is one of the quickest ways to get banned from this board. It’s likely you’ll get kicked as soon as a mod notices the admission and refers the matter to the admins. So let’s start the countdown… 5… 4… ---
