no one has ever tried to convert me that I can recall, except Jehovahs Witnesses and what have you who would come to the door. I don't really have any problem with the people of faith, even though I can't help feeling alienated from them. I used to be in love with this girl I'd only seen and never talked to, and when I talked to her one day and found out that she was a very devout Protestant of some sort I gave up on her. in retrospect I feel like that was a bad idea. I can understand people hating on religion, though. I just can't muster up that kind of anger anymore over someone's ignorance. the sad thing is, almost everyone is highly ignorant about something they claim to understand, and it would use up too much energy to despise 99% of humanity.
Pavel, So why is it OK for you to hate on Christians, but I can't hate on Jews (even though I don't)? I also have seen you say tons of racist things about black people (even if jokingly). Yet that's alright? I don't hate any group of people based on their ethnicity, race or religion. I base my opinion of somebody on who they are as individuals. There are plenty of Jews I have been friends with over the years. There are also plenty of Jews who feel the same way I do about Israel and zionism.
Well played. :cheers2: That's the first time I've used that smilie. That's how much I appreciate that.
Nick, you need to learn to appreciate the hate . You may seem to fail to understand this, but "Jews" are an ethnic group. Christians are a religion. I don't hate on Christians, I make social observations about them, just like I do about niggers and Mexicans. You can go on hatin' all you want, I couldn't care less. As I've said, what really bothers me is the fact that you brought it into a thread that has nothing to do with Judaism (and is about Christians trying to convert you)... that seems a little hateful. You're a tad obsessed with Jews. Maybe a circumcised cock up the ass would heal your pain.
also Matt, you should consider that the general topic of the thread has more to do with conversion than the religion itself, and Jews don't proselytize.
Yes, I think I've slid towards apathy myself. Yet I must admit that I find burning bibles to be extremely entertaining for some reason.
Indeed, which is why I wish that people would stop trying to convert me and would just leave me and my Satan worshiping alone.
You just referred to black people as niggers. I'm pretty sure not every black person calls themselves a ******. i got called a ****** the other day. sucks.
I do tell people that I'm Jewish, it doesn't stop them. I do not think that the word "******" has racist connotation these days and I plan to keep on using it. It might be hard for you to grasp, being American, but America isn't the world. In Russia the only word for a black person is "Negar", as in many other countries.
That's a pretty convenient dodge. And it's a fucking dodge. You didn't say 'Negar' you said a racial epithet. You have a very firm understanding of this difference and you don't care. It's fucking racist though. It as racist as calling black people dogs. So whatever, you don't care. That's not a desirable trait, and ''it's okay cause I've traveled, and you're not sophisticated enough to understand" is something I would have given you more credit to say even If I did think you were racist.
it really depends on the context. I don't think Pavel is racist. to me it seems more like he uses the word purely for incendiary effect.
I haven't been called a ****** since high school, I admit I sometimes find myself quite nostalgic for those days btw; the kid who called me a ****** is now shy a few teeth Hotwater
