| 5. Have you ever made a positive comment on this board? |
|
If you have, I'd like to frame it. It should be valuable since it would be extremely rare.
You seem to have a disdain for any and all sentiments expressed on DU. I would think you would be incredibly tired of posting on a message board with a bunch of people you seem so annoyed with.
This is in no way suggesting that you leave, but I am curious about it, since you never seem happy about anything.
Do you need some one to talk to? You seem to be very angry about something.

| 6. Tons, including just yesterday |
|
But I hate bigotry -- anti-Christian, anti-race, anti-anything.
I don't have disdain for sentiments at DU, just a few and those are the ones I target. You don't see me bashing Kerry and bitching about Edwards? Why, because that's how I'm voting. What I don't like is politics run amok.

I just watched the posted movie, and while I didn't think it was as funny as I was hoping, I didn't see it as a Christian bash. I am a Christian, and I see nothing wrong with satire that caricatures the more obnoxious side of what passes for followers of Christ in this country today.
I can appreciate satire of Fundamentalism, but I think this was poorly done, and not nearly as funny as it could have been.
I look forward to seeing the more positive side of your posts in the future. I'll admit that I may just not have noticed previous ones, and I can understand that if you considered this Cristian bashing, that you would object. I didn't see it that way. I just didn't think it was very entertaining.
I guess we'll see what others think....

those who have taken him as their 'beloved') has degraded the true essence of Christianity. When George declares " I trust God is speaking through me" it just might shake any faith people have in George's god. Makes one wonder what kind of god those Republican's worship. Have a hunch that god's name is Buck.

| 11. I don't see it as anti-Christian |
|
I see it as satirizing the attitudes of those who have "Old-Testamentized" Christ's purported message.
And anyway, any religion that can't laugh at itself isn't worth belonging to. Hmmmm, on second thought maybe that's why I don't belong to any...
