Grumpter resurrected it, in his usual, holier than thou thou manner.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

He didn't. Someone posted spam a few hours ago, which has since been deleted, and Shorty must have seen it while it was in new posts. So again, Grumpter didn't resurrect it either, it was the spam posts that doesn't show up unless you're a mod.

Geez -

A spammer must be pretty desperate to think there's something to be gained by getting this one up and going again.

Thanks, Jamo.

But it wasn't nice of Grumpter to be so cruel to me.

OH COME ON!!!! I CAN"T BELIEVE IT!! I missed a religious banter/Shorty hate thread all this time? This is the kind of stuff........anyways, I BELIEVE Shorty's just angry because he knoiws these people are proclaiming the truth and are on the right path to Heaven, and he wishes he would, but he's too prideful to want to join them all this time later. But sometimes, even in my CAtholic school people do go maybe a little too far with their proclaiming how many rosaries they do. Brownie points? Anyways, I think religious folk can agree with me with a gquote from St. Bernadette.

Gotta love Neil DeGrasse Tyson, leaving no math problem unsolved.

Most forums of any merit wouldn't allow threads about religion in the first place.

The funny thing is this thread still exists three years later and it was started by the forum "leader".

This place is laughable.

1 Why not? It's just a discussion. You don't have to participate.

2. In two and and a half years time that would be so. Six months is not three years according to my calendar.

3. I am not "the" forum leader.

4. Then go and follow some serious pursuits elsewhere.

A forum leader. Not the forum leader.

The distinction is similar to a god -- which would encompass the many thousands of deities in which you personally choose to disbelieve -- and the god, a particular one in whom you apparently do not.

Thanks for your contribution.

BTW, the thread was started October 14, 2011. Your math skills could use some work.

interesting thread, took csome time to read, which is cool cus it means i wasnt working :P

Im not going to agree with Shorty fully, but I can see a point perhap not raised from what he has said

What if an atheist won, and in his speech said "I would like to thank god, but as he doesnt exist, im not gunna",.....................hooolllyyyy crraappppp he would get flamed off the tour, the religious groups would be up in arms, beying for blood, he would be branded a disgrace and so on and so forth

yet he would only be doing what simpson did, and stating a fact that he categorically believes in right?!?

free speech dictates you can say what you like within reason,...but that doesnt mean you have to or feel compelled to,...i like chocolate, but i dont tell everyone

for me im an atheist, i have ZERO belief in any entity,........thats my right,......for a christian or whatever its their right to believe in something whole heartedly, that's there right

i guess what im getting at is i have no issue with religion,....but i have issues with people that wont shut up about it and feel compelled to convert the world,......i dont feel compelled to convert the world to atheism,...

In the OP, the point I was trying to make was not that he is worthy of criticism merely because he was a Christian, but because whenever he talks he would use a religious quotation, like a Hallmark greeting card.

Someone else's words, rarely his own.

    • Day 76 - Pretty sore today, so I opted for putting over my Stack session. Primary focus was on starting line, as my putting has been pretty poor this year. 
    • Been a bit of delay in updates but I needed to come back east as my mom's health has taken a serious turn for the worse. In a 3 day span we learned she had a tumor to she has stage 4 cancer and stopped eating and drinking for the most part. She has had a rough 3 months but certainly didn't think we'd be at the point of setting up hospice for her. My mom was never into any sports really other than following the Red Sox because my dad was a big fan. She always cared about what we were involved in including asking about how golf went.  I have kept up with my 5 minutes of daily practice and will go to the gym here in NH tomorrow morning. Despite the somber nature of this trip my family has commented more than a few times about my weight loss so it's important to me to keep it up. I know my mom always wanted us happy in whatever we did so I'll continue with my fitness journey keeping that in mind. 
    • Day 109- Putting drills on a putting green for 20 minutes. 
    • Day 252: did a stack session. Did some slow rehearsal swings during breaks. 
    • Day 82: 3/18/24 Tried a Stack session but could not certify my warmup. Finished with indoor chips and putting.
