Title: I'm BORED!
Post by: Thanos on August 11, 2010, 07:37:59 PM
entertain me!

looking for a decent atheist forum to go to, but here.. only 15 posts in the last week? come on

I was at a gun forum, a while ago here someone said this

Quote from: "Smarmy Of One"I think the first problem is visiting a gun site for enlightened conversation.

If I were you, I'd visit the site just to talk about guns and avoid the general discussion arena. Visit other sites for intelligent conversation in other - non-jesus themed forums.

I don't want to paint with too wide a brush here . . . but I will anyway. Most guns nuts are bible pounding, beer guzzling, back-woods, inbred morons. You are a rare specimen indeed- a rational free thinking gun enthusiast. If I get shot by mistake someday, I hope it's by someone like you.

; )

which got this response

Quote from: "Big Mac"Wow....Smarmy you are just a Christian without a Jesus to beat off to.

So since we're playing the assuming game, I'm going to assume most Atheists are: 1.) Card Carrying Commies. 2.) A part of the ACLU (which is a commie organization) 3.) Fags (I mean it with all the love I can without sounding gay) 4.) Bleeding heart ultra liberals.


Most gun nuts actually look like this (http://www.jpfo.org) and this (http://pinkpistols.org/) and this (http://www.a-human-right.com/) and this (http://www.geekswithguns.com/)!

Most "gun nuts" (I prefer the term Firearm Maniac but semantics) are just everyday people. I know you live in Canada where they tell you what to do but around here (see I'm going to assume some more since it's so easy) you have about 4 to 5 neighbors who have at least one gun and you'll never have an AD occur. I have yet to have one in my apartment and I own roughly 9 guns. Why? Because those who take the time to learn this valuable skill know how to treat a weapon with respect, not fear. Fear comes from ignorance.

I'm not trying to start a fight but please don't do that. Gun owners like me, momma, and many others here (and not here) have fought that stereotype all of our lives. It's grating to hear it. You wouldn't say most gay people are limp-wristed or most black people are too dumb to go to college, would you? Why paint it on another group who have been responsible and outnumbers most minorities?

after 2 more years of that bullshit, it turns out the first one was RIGHT. they are like that. helped me realize how much I don't want to be anywhere near religious people.

There is a thread in the Religion section with the odd name of
"Should a Christian own and/or carry a side arm"

I love guns as much as the next guy, but I'm no hillbilly! I've been voting Democratic since Ronnie Reagan declared war on me in the 80s, too. (Drug War veteran, fought on the side of fun.) Like my mom used to say: if you're bored, go run around the block a few times! :D
