Of all places, on a Star Wars forum...

What happened was one of their members died, and the local fundy has to pipe up and use that as an opportunity to preach. heh. Too bad for him that they're not quite so receptive as the RR crowd is!

Lets face it folks,
When we die, there is no "second life" as seen in the SW films. You either go to heaven or hell. Are you saved by the blood of Calvary? If not, you need to be. Go to a local church and ask them for help. May God be with us.

I don't care if you people do not agree with me, I will keep coming back and give you chance after chance after chance. However, God is not like that. He is a jealous God, and if you refuse him one time to many (who knows when) he will give you no more chances. He loves all of us, no matter what we do.

In HIS Name


After being told to park it:
He replies:

AND NO, I REFUSE TO DROP IT. THEY WILL HAVE TO KICK ME OFF FIRST.


Yep, he posted that in all caps.

It's nice to know that not everyone bows and scrapes to those fundies...

Another example of this guy's lunacy here.

Hi Mr. Preacher, my name is Choir ;)

A Star Wars forum, eh? Damn, looks like the fundies are extending their reach. I almost agree with the message of the fundie however, you shouldn't grieve for too long. Of course, tell me that if one of my close friends died and I would knock you out before you got to, "You shouldn't." The dead are dead, what you do about them after they die doesn't matter to them, it only matters to you. Those who spend years mourning the death of a loved one have just wasted a large part of their own life.

Of course, keep in mind this is coming from someone who has never lost anyone close.

Why continue? Because we must. Because we have the call. Because it is nobler to fight for rationality without winning than to give up in the face of continued defeats. Because whatever true progress humanity makes is through the rationality of the occasional individual and because any one individual we may win for the cause may do more for humanity than a hundred thousand who hug their superstitions to their breast.

Hmm. That forum seems to be filled with nice folks. Obviously the guy is wasting his talents there; such a pity.

He should come here, where we would be more appreciative of those talents.

Well, it looks like he got straightened out after all...for later in that forum

Not too shabby, as apologies go.

But it kinda makes me wonder if, on last Thurs., he was drinking or something. It's almost as if two different people did the posting.
