Careful, gobear, or a mod will come in here and invoke lissener’s law: Calling someone by their previous username is a bannable offense. I just know it’s gonna happen, because I’ve been assured that mods always apply their admonishments fairly and without personal bias or favoritism. Also, because it’s a rule that just makes so much sense.
Disingenuous fuck. Who controls the Republican Party? The hard right. Who controls the the Democratic Party? “Moderates,” or Republicans who like rock music. The extremists you list are not an adequate rebuttal of Equipoise’s point.
The asshole who sent the email.
Is he an influential member of the republican party? And did he in fact influence other republicans to do as he suggested?
OK, that was 2 questions.
Okay, what the hell is a feminazi hand-stabber? I know what a feminazi is, but I did a Google search for hand-stabber just now and was not enlightened.
To invoke an even more ancient principle, Hasturbird started it by using my old screen name.
Ed Gillespie.
It’s a derogitory term for an athiest. There’s a rumor/legend that the famous athiest Madalyn Murray O’Hair stabbed a person in the hand with pen for saying ‘God Bless You’ to her after she sneezed.
“hand-stabber” is looney speak for “athiest”. Our favorite resident loon, Liberal, is making a reference to something that the murdered athiest Madalyn Murray O’Hair supposedly did.
Damn you, Revtim. 
“Hand-stabber.” Heh. It does seem a very applicable label for some of the more rabid “how dare you say god in my presence” athiests.
But **Liberal uses it as a blanket term for all atheists. If you question the existence of God, you’re a “handstabber.” But then Lib will want to discuss the ontological ramifications of the use of “hand” and “stabber”–is the hand doing the stabbing or being stabbed? What is a hand–the fingers, the sum or the gestalt acting in concert?, and so on. His nutbar derailments of just about every thread here is one of the reasons I post so rarely these days.
That’s a lie, just like when you lied about what I said about the war. I have plenty of posts in which I’ve said that many atheists are closer to God than many Christians. In fact, I’m on record as saying that even God Himself does not divide the world between theists and atheists.
I don’t believe that either. You’re not that big of a pussy.
Yep, that’s the idea. It’s the atheist equivalent of a Bible thumper.
Bullshit. I and others have quoted exactly what you wrote on the war, and all the denial in the world can’t mame it read as anything other than it is. Unlike you, I had the courage to admit that I was wrong.
More like I’m not that big of a masochist. Life has more attractions than wasting more of it arguing with a mental case. You’re nuts, Lib, absolutely batshit crazy. You ruin threads here by derailing interesting discussions with pedantic quibbles and pseudo-intellectual “philosophical” asides.
Worst of all, you’re a bore. Get a new act because this one is getting stale.
The last time we covered this, I proved you wrong and you abandoned the thread (and I suppose the boards, though I hadn’t really noticed) without comment. Perhaps this time you will muster the balls to hang around and admit your mistake.
In this post, I reminded you of this post, dated 19 March, 2003. I wrote:
And yet, here you are.
And your posts in this thread demonstrate that you are a liar or deluded.
I thought that it referred to Whoopi Goldberg (as Guinan) stabbing John de Lancie (playing Q, a being with God-like powers) in an episode of Star TRek: The Next Generation.
Wow, one Pit thread features gay guys arguing with each other, a major sidetrack featuring Liberal, anti-lynn73 sentiment, and both politics and religion.
Talk about a microcosm of the whole Pit in one thread!
Which posts? The one in which I condemned genocide? Or the one in which I said that both Bush and Blair are full of shit? Or when I said that civilian deaths in the war pale by comparison in number to Saddam’s murders? Or when I said that it is not our government that should be doing the liberating? Or when I corrected the record about the [terms of the 1991 ceasefire](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=3154502&postcount=25
[/quote)? Or the one I already quoted you, [condemning the invasion by the US]
(http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=3154626&postcount=29)? And you have the nerve to call me deluded. Here’s a shovel with a longer handle. Keep digging.
Consider it a “Readers Digest Condensed Pit” for those whose SDMB time is limited! 
P.S. to Lel: I’ve had several very pleasant encounters, including two threads where we agreed on the topic, with Lynn elsewhere (you know where), but she was the perfect mock-threat for that post, for reasons I think are obvious!
