Are you religious?

What did she say?

Part 1




Part 2

Most of heath ledger stuff is part 1, second part is a gay caller and a lesbian caller

I like the radio DJ's little touch at the end of part 2:

"Have a lovely day and don't forget, God loves us all, no matter what we do!"

Just watching another video where she actually says, word for word:

Look at that virginia tech massacre, it's awesome!

The God they worship isn't exactly one i'd want to exist or follow. Hail Satan.

Have you never heard 'The Holy Bible'? One of the greatest albums ever made.

Oh. Dear. Seriously, this is what is wrong with the modern church: it is ran by mankind and as long as man continues to misinterpret the bible we will have crackpots like her.

No sound at work, so there's no point me watching the video. But I'm guessing she's from the Westboro Baptist church?

They're a kooky bunch, they blame all of the words ills on 'fags'.

Famine in Africa - Fags

9/11 - Fags

Lewis Hamilton docked points - Fags

Since 1955, Westboro Baptist Church (WBC) has taken forth the precious from the vile, and is therefore as the mouth of God (Jer. 15:19). In 1991, WBC took her ministry to the streets, conducting over 34,000 peaceful demonstrations (to date) opposing the fag lifestyle of soul-damning, nation-destroying filth. In response, america bombed WBC; america burned WBC on 8-2-2008. God is america's enemy: 4,155 dead soldiers; 30,324 wounded.

Looks like our government were right with their 'smoking kills' warnings

Religions for people who can't think for themselves - it's irrational - and since its clearly rooted in insecurities, its weak

Not as weak as your grammar.

What point? What word?

I was thinking more about the three apostrophes you failed to insert in the correct places (I'm not being rude BTW- I don't mean "up your pompous arse" or anything like that). Just for fun, see if you can find them.

There's no need to get upset n00b, after all Jesus loves you and that's good to know isn't it?

That's because people who use the word "atheist" in that sense are overbearingly thick and should lern2dictionary. The term 'atheism' denotes a conscious opposition to the idea of a deity. To me, the people you describe as not having an opinion one way or another are, instead, non-theists.

Bit harsh, fella.

Incidentally my Dictionary (Oxford English, Revised Eleventh Edition) simply describes atheism as 'disbelief in God or Gods'.

Why is it that these threads always descend into grammar bashing exercises ?

Although the vast majority of my family are Christians, I would consider myself to be Agnostic as while I don't particularly believe in God as such, there is no evidence to either prove or disprove the existence of such a deity.

For the record, I don't think I've seen a single other one of these debates descend into a grammar bashing exercise. It's usually just me and mic having manouvered each other into to effectively using the same points against each but using them VERY LOUDLY.

A question for Mic: I saw that you said that these people (the Phelps nutters) have misinterpreted the Bible. What do you make of the passage that states that a man should be put to death for lying with another man the way he would with a woman? Annoyingly, it seems the Westboro Church have a case with this.

I'd like to state that I am 100% against what they are doing and I love the gays. I don't believe in the Bible so it's not an issue for me; however, when people are basing their beliefs on the Bible, surely they have to follow this part as well? I don't mean to be rude, but doesn't this make a case for the 'pick and choose' aspects of a flawed religion?

Bah. I'm really interested, honest! I completely respect that other people can choose to live their lives by word of the Bible, but I just don't understand this part of it. It really does seem to me like you have either ignore parts of it or become a complete animal, like the Westboro loonies.

I think we actually covered it in a thread quite recently. Though I'm sure I'm getting it wrong (possibly on purpose for effect, who knows?) but I don't think mic considered killing homosexuals murder.

I think he considers gays to be akin to livestock or something.

(Heehee!)

I am not a religious man, I simply believe in God. As for the Big Bang theory, it's fake I'm afraid. Can't believe in that. Way too simple and it doesn't even make sense, if everything blew up then how could it exist? Those people on the Internet should have thought of that when they came up with the Big bang theory. Besides there would have to be a god, the world is too great for it not to be.

Some nutters say that there is no evidence for god but there clearly is, it's everywhere, we see it everyday. It's those little things in life that make the world so great. Not just things like the birds whistling in the morning, those beautiful sunsets or a warm breezy wind on a summers day, but things like drinking some Carling™, eating Coco Pops™ on toast, reading The Sun® and about to watch some real American wrestling. Deep in everyone's hearts, we all really believe in God.

"Its a Miracle!"
