There are no fucking rules! HAHAHAHA

JK

I would like to have this section be a couple of things.....debate....and just discussion.  IF you do debate it is NOT enough to merely rabble on your fucking opinion.  No one gives a shit about your opinion.  Back it up with some fucking references.  Don't just say, "I heard in the Bible this thing about this thing."  Get off your lazy ass and actually quote it so we can all see.  There are tons of Bible quote places on  the net so you have no damn excuse.

Now if someone comes NOT to debate....but purely ask a question.  Don't be a cocksucker and beat the fuck out of them.  I don't mind someone getting a little hot under the collar but attacking someone due to a different belief system no matter how stupid YOU think it is, is fucking unacceptable.  

You can MAYBE get away with calling an idea stupid from time to time...but you better back it up as to WHY you think it's fucked up.  Just saying something is stupid because you think it is only makes you look like a fucking infant peon.  

Calling person on this forum stupid.....doesn't need to happen.

I think that's simple enough.

Even if they're a redneck or is that just assumed?

Hell I'm a redneck that doesn't make me stupid.......but we may give some leeway if you are talking about people from Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi.  ;D
FB I love your rules and find you totally wise.  You are the fucking king.

;D ;D ;D ;D
I wouldn't have used so many smileys
>:( ;D

But  apart from saying  diagrammatically   the opposite - I can't complain  :P

;)
the smiley situation is more annoying here.

I am going to turn em off.

I don't think rules need to apply anywhere. That's the great thing about the other place. If you have rules here, then sooner or later their everywhere and that just sucks.

If your debating politics or religion, you'd just better be wearing a bullet proof vest....same as in real life. Why pull your punches if it adds to the discussion? Within reason, and that's where you come in.

Jumping on someone and cussing them with no addition to the conversation shouldn't be tollerated.

However, most here are grown men. Just put up a pussy's don't enter sign or leave your silly emotions at the door. Enter the combat zone, something like that.

Fuck rules.

That right there is the gist of what I want down here.  There is no need to say, "Hooky you are fucking stupid for thinking X"  If you disagree with a point of view.....show your counter and leave it at that.  

You KNOW I don't mind cussing.  Cuss like a fucking sailor for all I care.  

I would hope that we could have REAL good discussions without having to resort to just being mean.  That's the shit I don't want.  IF you disagree.....great....but be man enough to SUPPORT why.

Think of it like constructive criticism.  It IS totally OK with me if you think a guy is fucking loony.  You don't have to TELL me that he's fucking loony.....just PROVE that he's fucking loony by offering up a counter argument that shows that the dude is fucking wrong as wrong can be.  You can be tactful in these types of situations.

I'm NOT worried about differing opinions.  Just note that opinions aren't worth much if you are debating an issue.

Hope that makes sense....and would hope that if I'm not clear about something that you'd fucking bug the shit out of me till I made it clear as fucking day.
There is a whole forum where you can freely post insults... called Mudslinging.  No mod there, either.
I'm not trying to justify cussing people.

But Fender....

You are "ruling" OUT all post made by Christians with your rules. How are they going to offer facts that don't exist?

HAHAH well now YOU are being nit picky.

Listen....I understand why you understand that religion is silly.  However, to a religious person they can feel very connected to that religion and as such there is a truth TO THEM in what they believe.  

I say, instead of calling the religious person an ignorant fuck.....press your view points and support them with your observable world truths.  Try to understand where they are coming from with their unobservable world truths.  Trust me....you can crack the veneer and get through.  

And like charger says.....if someone frustrates you that much.....go to mudslinging....lock the door and have a freaking "fuck you, you motherfuckering poopy head" scream fest for all I care.  
I have no desire to cuss anyone. That's not my point.

My point is to not have rules at all.  That's the charm of this forum. The catch.

It's really not that big of a deal to me, whatever you decide is fine and I've been here enough to know your pretty fair....and definitely not the type to rule by emotion....which is great.
I think having no rules is bullshit.

I mean, how the hell are we supposed to break the rules if there aren't any??!  :D

Exactly.  I don't plan to do much if any moderation.

to be quite clear I want you to be comfortable to say virtually anything.  I just don't want people treating each other like shit.  you know me.  You know I'm not going to fry your post.  IF I think there is something wrong with your post......I'll more than likely call you out on it.  I wouldn't imagine editing a post unless it was just some baseless, purposely hurtful bullshit.

You could pretty much view this as NO RULES.....because at the end of the day you'd have to do some pretty jacked up shit for me to get on to you.

Sorry I don't think the Bible or any of the scriptures is relevant, so I will abide by the no rules statement. Read the Mud Shadows chapter of The Active Side Of Infinity by Carlos Castaneda, that is more real to me than any of the scriptures. The scriptures are nothing more than "myth" in it's purest sense. In other words there is no one alive today that has witnessed these events so the scriptures are all "mythical". Put that in your pipe and smoke it. wiggers

Harv,

I don't if I am misunderstanding you or your not gettin' me.

The rules....really applies to everyone.

I don't want Atheists acting like assholes to start a flame war.

Like wise I don't want theists not supporting what they are saying and then acting like, "I'm right your wrong go fuck yourself."

All I want is an atmosphere where we can exchange ideas without having to resort to gang warfare.

Examples of shit I'd hate to see.

Atheist: I don't believe in God.
Theist:  Well your going going to hell if you don't get on the band wagon.  Blah blah blah Jesus saves blah blah blah.

Theist:So why is it that you don't believe in God?
Atheist: Because it's a fucking stupid fairytale designed for ignorant fucks like yourself to find some gay ass purpose in life and control you so you don't do stupid shit to each other and to guarantee that you don't do bad shit we are gonna tell you that GOD is going to burn  you in hell .  It's the only reason you sick bastards behave.

Shit like that is not needed at all.  

I don't think we need to walk on eggshells for the Theists.  But we don't need to treat them like second class.

I don't think we need to ignore the Atheists questions and view them as insults.  It's NOT wrong to question WHY someone believes something.  In fact I think if you believe anything you ought to have a fucking reason why you are that way.

Don't do it.....hehehehe
Well FB does the kind of thing below fit into the discussion according to your no rules except for the general guidelines that you did put up there.

I do not disbelieve that there is a creator, that may or may not be the case, I just don't subscribe to the organized religions. For some reason I don't think those folks many centuries back had a clue, they were still in the "believers" phase. Now that we have science to explain the universe, we can more'n likely discount the parts of the scriptures that try and explain scientific phenomenon. However that said, the parts that do focus on the God phenomenon may in fact include good insight. You see I have nothing against religion at all. In fact I am super happy that there are religions to help control the unthinking populace. Like it or not humanity is in it's very beginnings of consciousness evolution. We have a long way to go, and in fact in a few thousand years there may be some breakthrough to actually explain the religious thinking in scientifically provable terms.

Dude there is nothing in the world wrong with that.
I'd like to know why we need to watch what the atheist say.

The Christians should be the confident ones. The ones with quick answers they can point non-believers to the truth with. Some kind of evidence or something....

Why the fuck do Atheist have to hold back and watch their mouth?

It's just as big an insult to me for a believing Christian to be unable to provide answers to questions as it would be for me to tell a Christian to get fucked. No difference, imo.

Just as you would encounter in real life, you would have to expect to get into some pretty steamed conversations when you get into religion or politics. Adults know that. Tempers get high sometimes during these conversations. So what?

The only reason we don't have more Christians on this forum is because we demand answers to questions the Christians can't answer. Bottom line.

It's not because we're mean or cuss them, it's because they have no answer for questions we ask and no answer for logical thinking in the context of religion. In short, they are insane in their belief of religion, literally.

I'm not gonna cuss anyone or be mean just to do it....but if someone tells me they believe something because they saw a shooting star that gave them a sign....sorry......that ain't no answer. I know, I've done it.
Hell!

Dude....you're making this way more complex than it even is.  Just fucking jump in the convo and IF.......IF you fuck up I'll let you know.  Til then.....who gives a shit.  I seriously doubt anyone is going to be a REAL asshole here.  
Oops. Wrong thread.
