Yeah, you couldn't know, but the expression "Hung like a mule"? Hmm- I wonder if that came out of that bible, or from the barnyard?

OMW here you say -"I just don't get why if no one beleives, which is fine, many beleive differently, why he gets everyone so riled up."
For me, it is not so much that the word God riles me, it is the way that the religion (wrapped around the mythology of a godman) is used to manipulate and control. We've seen it here on this site. I've had several posts that explored my emotional reactions to the whole mess, and I've posted several times exploring my intellectual response to the current illogic of the religion wrapped around the mythical godman. There have been alot of them from Tez and G_. And I'm sure there have been other thoughtful dissertations offered here long before I ever learned of the site.

I understand. And I agree in many cases it is used throughout the world to manipulate and control, unfortunately. And no one wants to be manipulated or controlled.
See I'm differnt in this respect, and I want people to know what I know. I have survived much, and been forgiven much. But I don't want to come across as a pompous religious jerk. People get mad at what I say on this site about God, they always have. And that is ok. And so after a few years of going back and forth with Tez and guest about God, no matter what happens, even if I don't bring him up, someone else always does, and then I am dumb enough to jump right in because it is my passion.
I understand your feelings. And it seems as if there are not only religious wars in the world but right here sometimes. The experience people have had with what they were taught about God or what they now percieve about Him, there are strong feelings there. I at times wonder why, because even though I had a very crazy childhood, I don't blame God and I don't blame God for the evil in the world... so I am interested in knowing what other people think. I only hope that I have the grace not to impose my opinions (as I know I have in the past) on others. I hope this explains my point of view as well.
I think the donkey genitals conversations have much more promise at this point in time.

OMW- I realised a while back that my strong feelings about manipulation stem from my childhood.
I have thought about this alot, especially from observing and participating in the debates here. I think alot of the misunderstanding in the world - throughout history is the need to be right.
But, I have also observed that it gets some of the godbelievers just as riled up when they discover a non-believer in their midst. I see it working both ways.
If you don't mind me asking though, and I really don't have the intention of inflaming. Why do you reckon the believer folks get so riled up at the non-believers? That happens, too. If the faith is firm, and there is proof or satisfaction of the existance of a godman, why do some of these believers get so riled that not everyone agrees with them? There's never gonna be a general consensus on this- history has proven this time and time again.
See, I don't believe because there is no proof, but my frustration comes from the manipulation I suffered as a child, and I get triggered when I see it here. It's been quiet here lately, though. I decided a while ago to read and proceed with caution -- because I know my triggers. That is the most important breakthrough for me. I will learn as I go along.
I agree- right now I would rather joke about the Bibledonkey or The King. It has been so serious here! 🙂

The Bibledonkey crossed the road to scatter his mighty seed?

Embellishment:
The Bibledonkey crossed the road because lo, as it was in the days of Beershephat and Golazybub, the Lord drove him forth so that all might look upon his mighty, pendulous, swinging genitals and know the glory of his creator. And it came to pass, and there was much rejoicing.

hi OMW, sorry to hear about your past, wow, I cant even imagine what what would be like. You're really nice, you apologized to me when infact it should be me for posting these verses. But we needed some light on these verses so I had to. Come on, be an athiest like me. There's no God and Hell and heaven, I assure you. If its all true, just push me forward infront of God, put the blame on me, I'll take his punishment, I promise.
If you guys want to talk about donkey balls, I'm gonna start talking about lets see, dinosaur boobs. Lol, the Bibledonkey!! ah. thanks for the laughs
I'm having the TOUGHEST time making small decisions right now, thats sucks, I think its cause i'm hungry. Gonna go get food then.

Tez yea.. you know, I wish we had a US president who was an outspoken athiest. Now that would be great. That will happen, the question is "when"

Dinoboobs and donkeyballs. Now we're getting into some SEROIUS mental health business. This is what helps us heal. Thats the first two steps of our unique 12-step program.
We have to admit that we're powerless over the dinoboobs and we ask them humbly to forgive us and guide us to the right path.
