Keep in mind that this pastor gets paid to be in church - it's his job, ergo a spiritual AND financial necessity (and possibly a status necessity since he has made the commitment to "shepherd the flock" each week).

So jabbathehut tell me some of your convictions so I can judge them and call you "simple minded"

uhh ok. this could take awhile... I'll just hit some main ones for you..

I can't stand who I live with but do it because it saves me money.
-
I pretend to like that person when they are around.
-
I've lied to my family about who I really am.
-
I know what I want in life, but I'm unsure of giving everything to get it because I may be wrong.
-
I've caused others more pain then I will probably ever feel.
-
-
-
I'm completely OK about all the "bad" things I've done.
I'm ok with who I am and who I'm becoming!
The only thing about me near perfect is simply the realization that I'm not perfect nor will I ever be.

Rip me up, Tear me down, Judge me - Call me simple minded, and that I may be If I were to actualy belive you.

jababthehut,

If your sole objective with the last post was to piss people off, it worked. It is ironic to me that laying down a blanket statement like the one above about an entire group of people, puts you right up there with all of the other less "simple minded people" in the world who make statements like that ( skinheads, nazis, all kinds of racists really, woman haters, man haters, etc).

I wish that I could think of something horribly offensive to you with which to respond to your last post, but I think that you have done more to reveal your small minded, simple nature, than I ever could. Good work.

Almost all do. It's too time consuming not to get paid. I've had plenty exposure to know this

My name is Kevin Todd, I'm hardly at the red often.

please people -- most of what I say in some way reflects what I belive about a subject. Then I say it as offensivly as possable, other wise it would be much more boring on this thred.

loren your doing near the same, if you were really simply pissed at me you could have shot me a pm.
Instead you lace your anger with hurtfull words and post for everyone to see.(just like I do)
Dose it make you feel better to have blasted somone infront of all you friends????
Dose it make you feel above me??
Or do you relise the humility in it all and are really smileing?
If your not smileing then go back to playing in the mud with your friends.
If you can't laugh at shit then your going to go through life as one pissed off person.

One more thing genius,

I am not a Christian, but I know many (many of whom I disagree with). However, the preacher man of whom we speak on this board is someone who I have climbed with and for whom I have quite a bit of respect. As much as I hate it when religious zealots make blanket statements about homosexuals, Muslims, Jews, other non-Christian groups, I hate it just as much when non-Christians make blanket statements like yours.

It's interesting to me that you would consider faith and the belief in God to be small minded when almost all of the greatest Philosophers and thinkers believed in God or some higher power. You must be really sharp indeed to be able to put yourself so far above those small-minded people.
