Hi, I'm a cultural Christian

[Shiranu]

I skipped 12 pages or so, so I don't know how legit he was... but he struck me as a fucking moron and not just a troll from the little bit I read.

Which if he was a troll makes it even sadder, because a troll can annoy me... but I can only be so annoyed at someone who is just too damn stupid to realize how stupid they are.

Indeed... I think he was actually legit but that he just didn't know or realize just how inconsequent, poorly constructed and utterly pointless his world view on christianity, cultural christianity, atheism and religion as a whole was. That's probably why all the contradictions and such were uttered.

Anyone else shudder at the thought of 'cultural christianity'? Adhereing to BS, knowing it's BS? Trying to spread the word though you know none of it is true. Giving authority to your Archbishop, knowing he's nothing truly blessed or special? Trying to say people should still pray and go to church and ahere to other bronze-age customs, just because a book, which you know holds no true merrit, says so. ...

I'm not going to miss scroyle, ... but it was interesting to watch him squirm as everyone pointed out the immorality of such things.

Cultural christian is to christianity what O'Douls is to beer.

Hear, hear.

What is that light coloured shit? I am not much of a drinker and even less of a beer person, but this is a down-right sexy beverage.

Do not... simply do not... knock... Belgian beer culture... you won't like me when you knock Belgian beer culture...
No, seriously, it's about all we've got. :)
If you're ever in town, I'll show you a thing or two 'bout that light coloured shit and we'll make a beer person out of you yet.

I've been drunk on Belgian beer. It taste great, but that 4 day hangover? FUCK THAT!

Easy solution my friend:
Just don't stop drinking.

That hangover might have occurred because I had quit drinking for about 10 years prior. The good news is I've resumed.

[josephpalazzo]

I could never shake the feeling that he was just making shit up as he went along

For a while, he came very close to match Eve... but I digress...

The rub is you have to have a vivid imagination or be simply delusional to see the magic man up in the sky. In either case it's still not really there no matter how many times people say it,  no matter how much they believe it,  no matter how many people have to die, it's still pure bullshit.

What a minute. Are you suggesting the tooth fairy isn't real ?

[La Dolce Vita]

I don't really see why he was banned. Sure, some of what he said was raising warning signs troll wise - but I think there was a pretty good chance he was legit. He specified previously that he believed in a conceptual Jesus that was created by the church earlier, and that this Jesus moved him to tears, etc. so him saying he accepted Jesus as his lord and savior probably meant something quite different to him, just as holy meant something else. He used a lot of christian language with different interpretations than the norm. Honestly I think discussion was terminated prematurely.

Ohhh ok. Now I see. I have to remember that the dodo bird rank with the word "extinct" isn't there anymore...
