Members BadCompany89 Posted June 28, 2008 Members Share Posted June 28, 2008 No, you are wrong. Christians don't do that stuff. People who use Christianity as a tool to get what they want do that stuff. Come on people, use your heads! But what if the Romans created/pushed christianity for that sole purpose?

Members guitarbilly74 Posted June 28, 2008 Members Share Posted June 28, 2008 How about mutual respect for beliefs and exercising tolerance? Oh wait, we are talking about a religious freak here.... It's very childish to take the stance, "I am offended by an ancient symbol on your T-shirt so your can't come into my house." What a {censored}ing joke. dude tolerance is for public places.. no one has to tolerate {censored} in their own house if they don't want to...my house, my rules.. it's not that hard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members starsnuffer Posted June 28, 2008 Members Share Posted June 28, 2008 I bet I'm the only one over 30 who has posted in the thread so far.You insulted your father's faith with your attire. The symbol on your shirt represents the exact opposite of what your father believes in. How can you not see how offensive that would be to him? What is possibly worst about the whole thing is that Slayer are the biggest bunch of poseurs ever when it comes to all that Satanic imagery they parade around in because none of them believe it anyway. It's all an image to them.If you know your father reads the Bible and goes to church, then you knew that Satanic imagery, even douchebag pseudo-satanic imagery like on your shirt, would be offensive to him. What did you think would happen? First of all, only people in the mid-west still believe that psudo-christian nonsense about pentagrams being satanic symbols. The PMRC called and want their tampons back. Secondly, he's your dad. If you're respect and consideration for him is lower then the value you give a piece of fabric (probably made in China), there's some deeper issues that need to be discussed. If it was your house, fine, but you're in his home, show some respect. -W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, a lot of people say that people are abusing religions when they do such things, but no one ever stops to think that maybe religions were initially created for that very purpose. I'm just trying to bring that idea into the discussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members -Juggernaut- Posted June 28, 2008 Members Share Posted June 28, 2008 Slayer may be posers, but at least they don't rape children and cover it up, or fool people into spending money on spiritual healing. You should think for a moment about how you could be viewed as a douche bag with lots of tacky worthless imagery aswell, the cross necklace and bible is all an image in a way too you know. Oh and, I don't think many religious people believe the {censored} they spew either. And you know I'm right. WOW!!!!Now I almost always stay out of religious discussions, but your blatant hatred of christianity is no better than that of which you speak.Sorry Bro, but hating like that is not healthy, YES I consider myself a Christian, but by a completely different set of standards than most. I "TRY" to not judge people by their beliefs, clothing, tattoes (which I have), etc... I think it's VERY UNchristian to judge people. It's not our place to judge anyone. Granted there are people I think are assholes, but if I come to that conclusion it's usually because they have forced me to not like them, do I HATE them? no, but I wont associate with them. Do I associate with no-christians, athiests, people of other faiths? ALWAYS, almost ALL of my friends are either Athiest, or just plain non-believers, and other faiths, it's not my place to tell them they are wrong.It really disappoints me, the hatred and bias thrown around here on this forum towards Christains. We are not all child molesting, money grubbing, hypocrites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members JonathanD Posted June 28, 2008 Members Share Posted June 28, 2008 Tell him to {censored} himself if he wants to freak out over a symbol. If you sacrifice a goat in his yard then he can freak.

Maybe if you were dying from cancer he would have acted differently....or maybe not...depends on how "die hard" he was on that particular day.

Members LedZep77 Posted June 28, 2008 Members Share Posted June 28, 2008 Didn't read the other posts, but if it's his house, it's his rules. If he doesn't like like your shirt, you should remove it, even though you may not want to. Still need to respect the 'rents because they probably did a ton for you growing up.

The thing is though, the reason why I hate christians is because they hate me. As childish as the phrase "they started it" sounds, it's actually the only way to put it. I didn't start disliking christians as soon as I became and athiest, it was the combination of the hundreds of times I've been screwed over by christians because I'm an athiest. I go to a catholic high school, you're just going to have to trust me, some of the stuff they do to non christians is unbelievable. They're trying to force christianity on everyone who goes to the school so hard it's sickening. I'm also forced to take religion classes, where they give me {censored}ty marks on everything I do regardless of how respectful I am when I state what I believe in and why I do. I had a religion teacher told the class that John Lenon deserved to die because he spoke out against christianity. He also said that God "takes care of people who do stuff like that, like how he did with John Lenon". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went to a Christian high school when I was growing up and I had almost identical experiences. When you get a bit older and quit trying to piss on your school's Wheaties, you might change your tune and realize that kids suck and teachers (all of them) aren't much more mature than the kids they teach.
