Message 204776 - Posted: 6 Dec 2005, 17:55:39 UTC - in response to Message 204736.  


I am persecuted for my faith and beliefs, and due to the fact that I am a Christian. One of those faiths and beliefs gives me my sense of humor, but even that sense of humor is censored and I am persecuted against because of it. Many hate me for being me, being a Christian, my faith and beliefs, and my sense of humor, but I do not hate them. I feel sorry for them, for they have chosen poorly.


Actually, Atheists are the most persecuted group in history, so stop feeling so sorry for your self.

I saw the picture you posted and was going to say something about it but CW got there first and I didn't feel there was anything to add.

OB, there are a minority of extreme Muslims that fit the profile in the pic, but they are a minority. The picture you posted was offensive to all Muslims and at a time when Muslims are getting a hard time no matter how peaceful they are it was a really dumb thing to post.

The type of Islam you described is not sanctioned by the Koran, but was more about control, ignorance and misogyny. Things that can be found in societies all over the world regardless of the god they have invented for themselves.

I am sorry you have had a hard time because of your mental illness. However, there are a lot of people with all sorts of troubles on this board who do not feel the need to go on about them every time they post.

You are not persecuted here unless you want to be. If you want my advice, give up religion altogether. It's clearly not doing you any good. Take up a nice hobby like knitting instead.

Maybe... But my name is JEFFREY and not JEFFERY!

And for GOD's sake, if you're gonna continue to insult me at least learn to spell REPLIES correctly. It's not REPLYS!

Don't try and force me to give up my religion. I got a good relationship going with God right now. Everytime I am persecuted, and hated, and made fun of, God is increasing my rewards in the afterlife.

You have a right to your beliefs, and I have a right to mine. I'm OK, but you are a book burning fascist.

Based on your post, I think that it can be proved that you suffer from a low intelligence, have a superiority complex, have a small manhood, and are the product of de-evolution.

LOL. "I don't give a damn for a man that can only spell a word one way." Mark Twain.

If you proselytise then people are going to get vexed with you. Especially us atheists.

Because people who do not believe in God here, apparently cannot spell.

I think they are agnostic dyslexics who suffer from insomnia. That means that they stay up all night wondering if there really is a dog.

Then again, I cite this Elvis Impersonator:



At least Elvis can spell better than these God-Bashers here. :)

No that is a lie, there are posts here that lump all Christians into one group as a joke, all US citizens into one group as a joke, but the momment Muslims are lumped into one group as a joke that post gets deleted.

I lost my last job in 2002 partly due to the fact that the Company President said I looked like an Iraqi and also that I was very sick with physical and mental illnesses. I am not an Iraqi and a Muslim, I am a US Citizen and a Christian.

I was offered a job with a company prior to the 911 attacks in their offices in the WTC, yet I had to tell them to wait until I got better due to physical and mental illnesses I had. I was on short-term disability before and after the 911 attacks. Needless to say that job offer went away after their WTC offices were destroyed. I was later fired by my employer that I worked for from 1997 to 2001 after the 911 attacks because they said I looked like an Iraqi and that I was suffering from mental and physical illnesses.

So why am I being judged by many others, yet I cannot even joke about something (which is not a judgement, just a joke) because one group gets special treatment over the other groups?


If you were fired because of a disability (physical or mental) then your employer was in violation of the American with a Disabilty Act (ADA). If you were fired because you looked Iraqi then your ex-employee violated any number of discrimination laws. If I was you I'd be rich..

Second your post was not a JOKE. It was vulgar and offensive. It used a symbol representing hatred as part of a word that did not. I would be just as offended if you were to lump all catholics as pedophiles,because a few priest has been caught by showing a priest molesting a child.

If you follow these threads you will see that ANY time someone lumps any group in an offensive matter it is dealt with in the same manner.

The symbol used in that picture represents Hitlers Germany, should we see all German in the same light? NO..

CW I have gone and chased down the poster the fuss is all about. Yes it is about hatred, but which direction? You must admit that the headings seem to agree with at least some of Islam (albeit what we call the loony extreemist). The poster is only a poster, but the guy holding the grenade pictured in it is something else.

If something was set up about the crusades whith a knight in shinning armour saying the same things, would that get pulled as well?

I am 58, I have been a Christian for 25 years. I have seen things posted on this message thread that I found very offending,(the who would Jesus bomb tshirt for one), but did not ask that they be pulled and if I did would they have been?

At the end what Hitler's Germany was trying to do and what the Islamic estremist are trying to do, are much the same, do as we say or die!

Psalms ;)

1) 1 Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers; 2 but his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night. 3 He is like a tree planted by streams of water, that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers. 4 The wicked are not so, but are like chaff which the wind drives away. 5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous; 6 for the LORD knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.

Of course, I already forgave you. I've forgiven everybody here.

Are you burning this Bible or this Bible or this Bible or this Bible or this Bible that you read and worship?
