    Whether you believe or not it is you're choice..who are you to tell someone that they can't believe, or they are idiots for believing in God ect? Just try starting up a thread about God and or Christianity on MyBB and see the response you get from the know it alls on that forum. You are sworn at, threatened, bashed until you stop posting.

    Anyway, not getting into a debate about it, let people believe what they want to, If that's what gives them hope and comforts them then so be it, who are you to tell them they can't or shouldn't or they're idiots ect.

    Awesome Tree
    That's why I forwarded it here. No debates or shit stirring, just a reminder to proud of who you are at this time of year.

    Also I'm getting tired of this political correct bullshit that is taking over.

    I loved the post Ike, nice one.

    However - be prepared to be insulted, your religion mocked and your general character being humiliated by the same "product of the world" that this article/post talks about. There are LOADS of people on mygaming who cannot wait to insult ANY form of religion, and I fear you've just given them that opportunity.

    But, still, nice post. +rep from me.

    I really don't care, I'm proud of being Christian and I can take it. I spent 5 years in a school as one of 5 people who supported the Blue bulls. I would also take over the TV on sunday to watch Nascar and F1, one day of internet assault should be fine.

    Thanks for the support and understanding.

    I can't believe the infinite capacity people have for downright stupidity.
    I really wish you hadn't wasted 10 mins of your time and posted this....

    I don't need reminders.

    The following has kindly been brought to my attention: http://www.snopes.com/politics/soapbox/confessions.asp

    Seems that the vast majority of that spam-filled sermon was never said by Bill Stein and even the bits that were, have been altered in Ike's version. Nonetheless, I am so glad that so many of you are happy to support such fallacious vitriol (guess that comes with the package, eh?)

    It's also over seven years old and, most notably, the White House has never referred to Christmas trees as "holiday trees," another charming fabrication to stir those "deep feelings" and that self-righteous piety.

    And I wish that people would stop being so gullible and easily manipulated. Unfortunately we don't always get what we want.

    All the same, I'm quite done giving this garbage the time of day.

    Back to you.

    It's a harmless post, no one is asking you to read it or comment on it. We all get it that you don't approve, I struggle to understand why you are so worked up about it?

    That's what happens when it comes to religion. Somebody will always have something to say.

    I don't have a problem with anyone having there say. You are correct, religion sadly has a way of polarizing people.
