Troll or not, it would be awesome if he stopped abusing the edit function.

Agreed. I quite like having it around, and don't want to lose it again.

His comparison of religion to reading Harry Potter was the single most wrongheaded thing I've ever read in my life. And I've read The Tommyknockers.

yeah after that post I have skipped whatever he has written and found myself bewildered as why people would even discuss with him, having read that shit.

It actually made sense in this case, because Devin started the thread after Nodiggity was arguing with him in the religulous thread.

To disagree with this is to single out Christianity and Islam.

But I don't think you want to do that.

As you were just talking about people finding their own path to god.

So maybe we can agree that all religions are equal.

You can see how an atheist can then reject all of them.

Or an explorer can move from one to the other.

Because they aren't any different.
You understanding of idolatry or blasphemy is very limited. They are more of a universal sin, then a sin of nonbelievers, meaning they apply more to the believer, then the nonbeliever. Idolatry is more then other gods or a statue, it linked to sex(fornication/adultery), money, time, political causes, dogmas, and a whole list of other things.

Well, idolatry would also be holding money and the like above god. Blasphemy would be whatever the church deems doesn't correlate with their own interpretation of their religious text. Various religious denominations have their own interpretations and values. Values and idolatry other religions may accept as OK and integral to their religion, while other religions may reject them. God figures into these concepts universally - regardless of the path you choose, it'll be considered the wrong way to God by somebody out there. Cuchulain even mentioned Christianity and Islam - faiths that condemn the so-called 'worldliness' he's talking about when it comes to some religions letting the believer find his own path to god. A Muslim could merely think a practicing Jew is 'wrong' in the same way an atheist would say both the Jew and Muslim are wrong.

But really, this conversation is just going to boil down to how mean those atheists are...but really, it's no different than the way one religion believes it's superior to another. Atheism just levels the playing field so that everyone can be considered equal.

good thing I don't belong to a church, so I don't have to worry about Blasphemy then.

Heh, if that were the only criteria, I'm surprised we all haven't had threads started about us.

Hey. Eenin? Stop it.

Watching eenin and dreary louse go at it is like watching two Downs kids throw nerf balls at each other. Amusing, but it doesn't go anywhere fun.

See, that's where we disagree.
Two Down kids are endlessly fun, cuddly and lovable.

Maybe autism is more apt, when it comes to our exchanges.

Sure,... but how WELL do they suck, Devin?
...and are you required to be playing 'Guitar-Hero' at the time?
Do they need a 'My-Space' page?

I know a kid with Downs, and if he's at a hardcore concert he completely blends in, can hit on girls of the scene, and make friends with other fans of a band like "The Revolting Cocks".
