Well there IS comment, but I have nothing else to say.
What's the difference between that and moron, dumbass, idiot, etc.Let's see, I believe I stated:
"People that act rudely online are often the biggest pussies in real life"
now now, anyone believing that I'm singling them out as a pussy, please raise your hand.
And yet I never said that all people that act rude online are pussies... yet you quickly jumped to the conclusion that I called *you* a pussy...Interesting.
"My saying you don't deserve respect from me is not a concrete claim."You actually said:
"You've already shown you don't really deserve it from me, so I will have to pass."
Where exactly have I shown this?
If you're going to reply to my posts, make sure you don't leave out the important parts from the middle. You said:
"Please point out where I said that if you are going to make that claim."
And I am now telling you to take your own advice.
"This is just such a great example of how these "religious leaders" are simply a bunch of undereducated, overzealous idiots who claim to know things they can't possibly know while they don't even know things a second grader knows. Hilarious."If the "Religious leaders" are idiots then what are the people following them?

An insult is an insult. I grew up around swear words and insults. Everything you can think of. To me, what they imply does not make any certain word more hurtful than another. I couldn't care less what word you used in reference to me, it is still, overall, being said to be hurtful.
Despite this, no word you say to me will have any effect other than a word, as I've grown much accustomed to them being used for everyday use.
. The difference between followers and preachers is that most followers aren't so convinced by the nonsense that they decide to make a career out of it and spend their entire lives trying to "convert the heathens."Now you're claiming that they believe fervently, and that is what makes Leaders idiotic, but not the followers.
And yet, I cannot remember if it was you that claimed this, that many of them are in it for the money. Regardless of whether that was your statement, many of them likely *are* in it for their own reasons, making them actually quite shrewd, if morally bankrupt.
"If the "Religious leaders" are idiots then what are the people following them?I never made any claim about the people following them. However, I would say that the people following them are a combination of dumb, intelligent, hopeful, desperate, indoctrinated, bored....and I could go on and on."
Religious leaders are have that term "leaders" in their title because they LEAD. Can you not comprehend? Anyone who FOLLOWS them has the same views. If you follow an idiot, would you not say that makes you an idiot as well?

Created apples? You sound sort of Religious huh? And what a perfect example. Yes, Nathan, an apple IS an apple.
I know they have individual meanings as i thought i had made clear. However, OVERALL, they are all doing the same thing. Insulting.
"Then why are you complaining about it?"If you read through the posts properly, like a good little English teacher, you'd have realized that i was comparing you and Lee. You said:
"You were clearly calling someone a pussy, and as that goes, calling people pussies on the internet is one step above saying "You wanna fight?!" to an internet entity you will never meet."
Any insult should naturally imply that should it not?
LOL. You two make for hilarious reading! (just thought I'd make my presence known :))
"People share some views with religious leaders and not others. They share some views of their particular faith and not others."I didn't actually mention a particular leader. You can follow anyone or anything but essentially you are following them. You know what following means, right?
"to conform to, comply with, or act in accordance with; obey" Just some of the various takes on it.
You're the English teacher.
Nathan wrote: "Created apples? You sound sort of Religious huh? And what a perfect example. Yes, Nathan, an apple IS an apple.You stupid moron. Oh my god. I said an apple is an apple because I was making fun ..."
Of course you were making fun of me. And I was making fun of you. Didn't YOU get that?
"Any insult should naturally imply that should it not?Spit it out junior. Any insult should imply what?"
If you were reading in sequence you'd have understood.
"You were clearly calling someone a pussy, and as that goes, calling people pussies on the internet is one step above saying "You wanna fight?!" to an internet entity you will never meet."
If i have to write it out word for word for you, I will. Insults imply "You wanna fight?!"
Okay... You seriously have to be the most annoying living-being to walk this planet.This isn't Victoria at the moment and for the next few minutes I'll be placing in my own short input on this whole ridiculous matter.
So apparently, this whole debate bullshit started about a Christian who spelled the word "pastor" incorrect over television... Correct? I haven't read every single post (which to be honest I don't really give a shit about so don't start on that), but I can't seem to believe that an actual English teacher, that means a full-grown adult, is sitting here over a fucking computer whinging and arguing about all this pointless, time-wasting crap.
Seriously. Get a life. I don't believe in God but I don't sit around on an internet thread insulting, abusing and talking shit about other religions, and do everyone and yourself a favor.... Shut the fuck up and do something actually useful with your time other than arguing with a bunch of teenagers. No one cares. Find someone who does.
"Now, if you could pass along a note to your mother. Tell her not to drop any future children she might have on their heads when they are infants. Just look at what it did to you."My mother died before i was born. Take your advice to your own mother where it could be put to some use.
Lorna wrote: "....who are you?"Who?
At that? That might have been better to keep in your mind...just saying.
Four words. You're an absolute dickhead.
Now you have stepped the line.And yes, now I am getting involved and NOW I care, since Victoria is my SISTER, and you have opened your fucking mouth about my mother. Fair enough you may not have known when you first decided to be a smart ass by saying:
"Now, if you could pass along a note to your mother. Tell her not to drop any future children she might have on their heads when they are infants. Just look at what it did to you."... which shouldn't have been said in the first place..
But to actually say something horrible like that after you've been told the situation, I've come to a bigger conclusion that you're lower than I originally thought you were, you're a cold person and you have no remorse or feelings for anyone but yourself. I don't believe your a teacher, because someone has to be that thick to hire an idiot like you.
And because I can tell what type of person you are by your responses so far, if you decide to suggest that Victoria has gotten her older sister to fight back for her, you're wrong and you should think again.
Despite your use of "bigger" words, I honestly wouldn't say you're much older than 15.
Not that anything you said can affect me. Back to the topic at hand.
As i was saying before this became personal, a misspelled word implies nothing as you have proved with your own errors shown earlier.
Ok. Are you finished now? This is a debate, not a fight.
^ that's what I meant when I asked who you were, Vic.Nate...whole new level of cruel. And 'whinging' is a word over here. It's said how it's spelt - I dont believe you use it over there.
Good. We can therefore agree that since we are both repeating ourselves we are never going to agree.But just to make this clear I still believe firmly that you are wrong.
...I taught an English teacher a word?! My life has officially reached it's pinnacle!

Accepted. :)

"I was flipping through the television stations this morning when I cam upon a religious channel."So Nathan, does that mean that since you can't spell the word "came" this "says it ALL" about atheists? :)
What's the difference between that and moron, dumbass, idiot, etc.
