Snivel, have you lost your mind? Did it have something to do with the size of your brain and a particularly powerful sneeze? That’s why idiots like you should always use a kleenix.
So far, everything I’ve seen you post was inspired by Rush Limbaugh or The Bible. Well, at least this shows you’re spreading your hero-worship between God and the Devil. However, if I can take you as an example, your God cannot even be distinguished from the Devil.
What I don’t understand is why you expect people to take you
seriously. The only emotions I’ve ever seen connected to you are contempt, annoyance, and offense. I would call you a troll, but I don’t think you’re smart enough to be doing it intentionally.
You my friend, are a speck of excrement clinging to the colon of this board, and an obvious sufferer of vocal incontinence. Perhaps we should name the disease after you, “Snivel’s Logorrhea”.
You are the lowest of the low. And when you get so low that you’re saying “hi” to the Devil, I want you to give him an extra one for me. Why don’t stay there for a while, and enjoy the entertainments? It’ll at least be entertaining for me. And I hope that while you’re there you’ll be set upon by rabid hell-hounds of a rather lusty persuasion. I hope you are dipped in a vat of lemon juice and pirahnas. And I hope that when you die, and they bury you, they make it very, very deep. Because I want there to be no uncertainty of the fact that you are gone. I want to be sure that you are not carried back from the dead by the force of arrogant obnoxiousness.
Now, before you go, I want you to know that you are the kind of scum that Conoco toilet grunge looks down upon. The kind of scum where people just abandon the house rather than trying to clean up. Your very presence is abrasive. And your very existence is an insult.
I read the other thread smeagol, i mean sneevil, and you started the mud flinging. Show us some proof of where you were ferociously attacked after you mentioned “god”, “right” and “wrong” in the same sentence. And for the record, THAT IS introducing religion into it, and you also introduced it with this beaut
Oh… and with this:
I appreciate you generalizing and speaking about many of the members of the SDMB. Why are you here if we’re just a bunch of foaming anti-theists? Oh yeah, you’re talking about a higher power again, not that you brought religion into that thread or anything. Not only are you rude, you’re a freakin liar.
Putz
Hmmmm, Sneevil, you have a bad habit reading your own prejudices into other people’s posts. You believe that because I disagree with you that I don’t believe in God. Ah, but I do. You also believe that I am disappointed in God. I’m not. I’m disappointed in some of those who claim to follow him.
From what I have witnessed in my lifetime mankind has only a foggy idea of what God is and how he/she/it thinks. You state that we can use our idea of God as an absolute standard, but I was merely pointing out that people believe in many versions of God and those beliefs more often than not conflict with one another.
I was merely pointing out that you were stating an oversimplified solution to what you see as the world’s problems. Bring God back into the equation. It sounds so simple, but there are parts of the world where people are killing each other over their versions of God. Combining God and State does not solve problems, only starts new ones.
If you had meant that we should find a church and follow its standard, then why didn’t you say so in the first place? Or at least, you seem have just made that point to pepperlandgirl. So is that what you meant? Find an organized church and follow its tenets? Or is there only a short list of acceptable churches in your mind? You seemed to imply that Jehovah’s Witnesses and Mormons weren’t acceptable to you (being cults and all), so which churchs do meet your standard?
Well, speaking as someone who has NOT read the original thread on which the OP of this thread was based (“then shut up!” “Uhm, no.”), and who is trying to stay out of the middle of these types of things as much as possible (“Then SHUT UP!” “Uhm…no.”), I would like to mention that, as an independentl observing, agnostic, half-Jewish, lapsed Pagan (“There is no such thing.” “<shrug>”)…
From this end of the screen, it looks as though Sneevil is making reasonably well-thought-out arguments and most of (hello, MOST OF) the rest of you are foaming at the mouth.
I don’t agree with a lot of what Sneevil is saying, seeing as how I’m not religious in any way (“so SHUT UP, already!” “No.”). However, he’s making his points in a (somewhat, considering the fact that I don’t believe in the religion he’s espousing) pretty reasonably fashion. His respondents appear to be pounding their keys in a fit of pique, trying to make him say, “YES! YES! I suddenly admit that I’m defeated by you calling me ‘Jerk’ and ‘Asshole!’”
Every time someone has tried a standard flame, he’s shot it down. Every time someone’s tried to put words in his mouth, he’s refuted them pretty reasonably. I’m thinking if the folks who are against him want to make an impression, they should 1) take five minutes to breathe before posting and 2) open a thesaurus before clicking on that little “post reply” button.
Like I said, this is only opinion. I have no opinion whatsoever on the subject at hand.
Well, since the little Boll Weevil himself hasn’t seen fit to reply to my post, I can only assume that he’s trying to avoid the terrible, terrible truth that he got pissy and rude first. Or maybe he’d like to back his little lies up with quotes from * before * he decided to declare us foaming anti-theists and call the mormons a cult? Can’t do it, can you?
But then again, what do monekys do other than fling their own feces around?
Oh get over yourself; care to submit some references on this and watch them get picked to shreds? I thought not.
Are you familiar with Monty Python? You know the live organ donor program? Go get one. Now.
You’re obviously not using that cluster of nerves that most of us call a brain. Why not help out mankind, and donate it to science? And once you’re done, all you have to do is fill in your skull with formaldehyde–twice the processing power of your current model!
Go back to lapping up antifreeze off the floors of the local garage. Maybe if you’re lucky, they’ll throw some motor oil your way too.
** Hamadryad: ** See, the thing is, the little creep likes to pretend he’s acting reasonable, but mixes it in with snide little comments.
I really suggest you read the original thread…it’s…umm… * enlightening… *
Or maybe go back and read some of the flat-out lies he’s already posted here. There are plenty, but they’re not obvious unless you’ve read the old thread. Conniving little weasel, isn’t he?
He shoots down flames the way a 10 year-old does: “your momma”, or “you live in a trailer park, ha ha ha”. He posts a serious one every once in a while, just so that people like you–who come in late–won’t realize what a jackass he is. This is not to insult your intelligence–I’m sure he’s honed it to a fine art while jacking off with all the other little pricks out there.
Try making a serious response to him that points out an area where he’s wrong; he’ll bitch and moan and drool on his keyboard just like he already did to create the need for this thread.
I was the first one to ever interact with Sneevil, I was the first one to be insulted by him, I was the first one who noticed his two-faced nature, I was the first to flame him in the pit, I’m not the first one to get sick of him. But, I am going to do this, I’m going to ignore every post he makes from now on.
He is the classic definition of a troll. By feeding him you are simply giving him more entertainment and he will keep coming back. Cut off his entertainment and he will wither. I humbly suggest that everyone take this course and just ignore the fucker. There really is no point in going on with this, or even with acknowledging his existence any more.
No, you useless sack, I was not defending her for being LDS. I was pointing out why she was so pissed off at you. You called her religion a cult–her anger was understandable. Christ, fucking read the posts before you vomit, willya?
It’s really easy, Sneevil. You said you did nothing to anger people. I showed that you did. What’s so difficult to understand?
You know, ** oldscratch, ** I was originally of the already-posted belief that Snivel was just too stupid to be a troll, then a funny thing happened to me on the way to the SDMB:
I was walking to work today, thinking about the reaction that I was planning to run, when a little 10-year old boy began flitting around me, whining because I was bigger than him, and not paying any attention to his patheic little insults.
So I smacked the little snot-nosed bastard upside the head. WHAP! He ran off crying, but soon returned, armed with a whole new arsenal of welfare jokes. Somehow, he just didn’t seem worth it anymore, especially since he was pathetically pummeling my boot-straps, and still bleeding from the head.
I went to work, and my reaction worked pretty well.
So I am now converted to the view that there is just no way for a person to be too stupid to be a troll. Goodbye Snivel, may you rest in charbroiled pieces…
I don’t what slimy rock you crawled out from under, but they say opinions are like assholes. Which must be where you pull your opinions from. Nobody cares what you think. Eat shit, fuck off and die.
You must be some sort of venemous reptile. Three posts and you’re still not done spewing toxin. The world would be a better place had your mother eaten you at birth.
Wow, you really are a jerk, aren’t you? These people all have you pegged, and you can hiss and scratch all you want but you can’t change that fact. You complain about the lack of values in society and post this shit? Im afraid the only candidate for the hypocricy award at this point is you.
I suppose it depends on whether you think right vs. wrong, a moral standard, if you will, is an absolute concept. I happen to think it is. Right is always right and wrong is always wrong regardless of circumstance. The notion of ‘moral relativism’ is not a valid, fair or equitable concept. It is subject to the tyranny of the majority.
There are two basic views of the relationship between man and God. The ‘new age’ type view is that man can be perfected. Either through ‘enlightenment’, ‘reincarnation’ or some other mechanism that has never been proven to even exist. The second view is that man is fallible and needs a saviour. This, of course, is the Christian view, that Jesus Christ is the reconciliation between God and man.
you said:
Exactly right. Man is fallible. Man is subject to the vagaries of self. For example, you no doubt have heard the phrase “the rule of law”. What does that mean to you? Why do think that might be an important concept/value? I would submit because it is (as far as possible) an immutable standard. It provides a point of reference, a measure for deviation. That is exactly what I’m talking about-a standard, a point of reference for moral values. If you don’t think that standard exists, please explain how you determine right behaviour from wrong behaviour. Do you think what is right for one person can be wrong for another person? Do you think that the same behaviours are either right or wrong depending upon the circumstance surrounding that behaviour? If so, what is the measure in each instance? Popular opinion?
Without a pre-existing standard higher than ourselves, I don’t think we can make a determination that has any integrity.
I did not read the thread that started this whole mess, and I am not going to because this one hurts my heart more than enough for now.
So what is the deal, Sneevil? Are you a born again Christian, or not? Because if you are, you are not being a good witness. If you are not, kindly refrain from implying that you are. We have more than enough bad press already, due to believer’s who have not grasped the “Judge not that you be not judged” thing.
I request that you either start speaking like a Christian (if you are one) or make it clear that you are not a Christian (if you aren’t.)
Jesus Christ preached many things, and none of them indicated that this kind of behaviour was acceptable. And I am not just speaking of the language.
You need everything quantified and categorized in your orderly little born again world? I suspect you are one of those “all show, no go” self proclaimed Christians. I have had my fill of you holy rolling hypocrites. What are you? Pentecostal, no doubt. Probably a Benny Hinn sycophant.
No, my friend, it is the likes of you that gives Christians a bad name.
