Atheist group at odds with ethnic festivals [View all] rug Aug 2012 OP

So Goblinmonger Aug 2012 #1

No, just some atheists suck. The whiners, intolerants, exclusionists, haters, mockers, extremists Starboard Tack Aug 2012 #8

"No, just some atheists suck...The rest of us don't." cleanhippie Aug 2012 #11

"I'm a lifelong atheist but..." 2ndAmForComputers Aug 2012 #21

You edited the middle part. Which group do you belong to? Starboard Tack Aug 2012 #25

Wow. You are a real piece of work aren't you. Goblinmonger Aug 2012 #27

Love the guy. Very giving, very open, very tolerant. Starboard Tack Aug 2012 #28

That's right, ST stands up against those awful, bigoted, intolerant "New Atheists." eqfan592 Aug 2012 #44

Nonsense! He stands up to bigotry and intolerance from wherever it emanates, as do I. Starboard Tack Aug 2012 #46

I did not know that being "tolerant" meant... trotsky Aug 2012 #45

I don't know what that has to do with tolerance. Maybe you'd care to explain. Starboard Tack Aug 2012 #49

Are you capable of arguing a point without accusing your opponent... trotsky Aug 2012 #50

Absolutely. Especially if I have a point to argue. Starboard Tack Aug 2012 #52

Nor does being intolerant make you my enemy. trotsky Aug 2012 #53

Yeah, with every post I don't imagine it can get any worse. eqfan592 Aug 2012 #43

Your comment alone made the wait worthwhile. Goblinmonger Aug 2012 #23

Excellent, on both counts. I try and bike riding is good for body and soul. I do it every day. Starboard Tack Aug 2012 #26

I just started "real" bike riding this year. Goblinmonger Aug 2012 #29

Good for you. Cycling is an excellent way to keep in shape. Starboard Tack Aug 2012 #31

Lets get this straight LARED Aug 2012 #2

That's the way I read it. cordelia Aug 2012 #3

Mmm, that's some tasty Christian privilege. (nt) eqfan592 Aug 2012 #4

How is this policy a Christian privilege? LARED Aug 2012 #5

Aw, c'mon, this is utterly ridiculous. cbayer Aug 2012 #6

"If we all lived in the radiant love of Christ, these fights would cease." cleanhippie Aug 2012 #13

Gee, the media only tells you things you think are ridiculous. Goblinmonger Aug 2012 #32

So what this boils down to is that: okasha Aug 2012 #47

And even the Catholic can go to breakfast and skip mass, lol! cbayer Aug 2012 #48

Very true. okasha Aug 2012 #74

If I recall correctly, the only rule is that you can't participate in communion. cbayer Aug 2012 #75

That's the official rule. okasha Aug 2012 #81

No, that's what YOU have boiled it down to. cleanhippie Aug 2012 #76

Except that as a non-Christian okasha Aug 2012 #82

This is clearly aimed at encouraging attendance at the religious service. Silent3 Aug 2012 #51

So what if it encourages attendance at the mass? cbayer Aug 2012 #54

It privileges those who really want to attend the mass... Silent3 Aug 2012 #56

It's not a privilege. It's a choice. cbayer Aug 2012 #58

There's discrimination great and small. Silent3 Aug 2012 #60

I strongly suspect that your position of privilege is looking squarely down on me. cbayer Aug 2012 #63

Which position of privilege would be mine? Silent3 Aug 2012 #64

You assume much and reveal little. cbayer Aug 2012 #66

Go ahead and take it personally if you wish. Silent3 Aug 2012 #72

Why do you think I have christian privilege? cbayer Aug 2012 #73

Yes, it seems it does. LARED Aug 2012 #55

It is a bad thing... Silent3 Aug 2012 #57

Abuse of public lands? Seriously? LARED Aug 2012 #59

Abuse of the right to use public lands by using them... Silent3 Aug 2012 #61

Perhaps you mean misuse rather than abuse? LARED Aug 2012 #62

So you do see the problem... Silent3 Aug 2012 #65

Yes, he realizes that there IS discrimination here... cleanhippie Aug 2012 #67

Whoa, wrong again. shocking. nt LARED Aug 2012 #69

Whatever you say, LaRed. cleanhippie Aug 2012 #70

You broke my irony meter. nt LARED Aug 2012 #77

I don't think you are using that word correctly. cleanhippie Aug 2012 #80

Oh, I am and you know it. LARED Aug 2012 #83

What I see is there may be a few that LARED Aug 2012 #68

Your analogy sucks because this isn't at all like going a very tiny amount... Silent3 Aug 2012 #71

Sorry you don't like my analogy, but it makes no difference. LARED Aug 2012 #78

The problem for atheists is becoming Leontius Aug 2012 #7

When the real wolf comes, the atheists will already be long gone. onager Aug 2012 #9

Then maybe if you quit pissing away all credibility over bs like this Leontius Aug 2012 #10

"If we all lived in the radiant love of Christ, these fights would cease." cleanhippie Aug 2012 #14

Speaking of credibility Leontius Aug 2012 #22

"If we all lived in the radiant love of Christ, these fights would cease." cleanhippie Aug 2012 #12

What does that have to do with the allegation of breaking a law? nt LARED Aug 2012 #15

Lol, he's either the most sarcastic bishop to ever wear a miter or he's a blithering idiot. rug Aug 2012 #16

Perhaps, but the denial of christian privilege in this thread cleanhippie Aug 2012 #17

Meh. It's a lot more about selective outrage than it is about privilege. rug Aug 2012 #18

Sarcasm? Really? cleanhippie Aug 2012 #19

It's one of two possibilities. rug Aug 2012 #20

let's see: Mass usually clocks in about 1 hour to 90 minutes WolverineDG Aug 2012 #30

Fuck Christian privilege. trotsky Aug 2012 #33

Fuck red herrings. rug Aug 2012 #34

Yeah, those too. trotsky Aug 2012 #35

"nasty, bitter, judgmental assholes" rug Aug 2012 #36

Yup. trotsky Aug 2012 #37

Me too. rug Aug 2012 #38

I dunno, I'm still waiting for an apology on another thread... trotsky Aug 2012 #39

Me too. rug Aug 2012 #40

What isn't false? trotsky Aug 2012 #41

Lol, kick away! rug Aug 2012 #42

How is this any different from movie theaters charging different prices for different times? ButterflyBlood Aug 2012 #79
