Given the influx of True Belivers™ around here on various threads recently, it seemed like it was time to start up another open thread for those folks who are bound and determined to convince us godless heathens of the error of our ways. So, if you’re a True Believer™ that hopes to show us the error of our ways or you just want to angrily defend your belief system or what have you then please feel free to make use of this thread to post your views/rants/thoughts/comments/sermons/arguments from authority/appeals to emotion/or whatever it is you think you need to say.

Repent or burn in Hell....oh wait...I am a True Believer but I don’t really care if you repent or not. Guess that makes me a bad True Believer.

The Sandman, that would make you a true believer with the little T and B and no trademark. Your kind doesn’t bother me at all. Believe what you want so long as you afford the same courtesy to others.

I’ve discovered that it all boils down to brain wiring: your brain is wired to worship magic or it isn’t, either it’s wired to utilize logic or it isn’t, either it’s analytical of myths or it isn’t.

Brother, according to the Book of Ramen, heaven is a wonderful place with a Beer Volcano, and a Stripper Factory.  However, if you do not believe in the the FSM, you won’t be getting in.  Sorry, I guess I mispoke...Strippers and Beer for everyone that believes in the FSM!

Good question!  I don’t know, but if you pray to the FSM, he may touch you with his noodly appendage and give you the answer in a vision ((probably of an island with a dwarf, or something to do with pirates if you are lucky).

So does anyone want to pretend to be a True Believer™ so we can get some discussion going…

Mirth, honor and hatred.  All are me, throughout and complete, and I indulge when and where I choose.  Therein, I will have the knowledge of self and objective, the fury to carry it out ruthlessly, and the smile of a deed done and peace to come to bring me home.

Yeah, but I guess we need to be slightly more circumspect in our goal of trapping them within our heathen atheist bolshevistic (ooooh, BIG word) webs…

I am a true believer...I admit it. I was so sad the day I realized I wasn’t an arrogant ass that had to convert the world. (Dripping with sarcasm)

The only god the True Believers worship is themselves.

In some ways life would seem so easy and happy if we were able to abandon all logic and brainwash ourselves into being convinced that we were guaranteed heaven and didn’t have to go to all the hard work of learning stuff.

Ignorance can be bliss, but the ignorant of feeling may be subject to each other, typically they fight but may develop an ‘i don’t care’ attitude once they are aware of what they are doing (like a psychopath) - i think you may have more impulse killings, vandalism and suicide if people stopped caring, but someone could conciously decide they would rather be an asshat and decide not to care. It’s strange to me why people do anything other than take the easiest possible route through life regardless of others - since you can block others out of your mind much more easily than your own feelings, why want to be a good person if there is nothing in it for me? I find that people caring for each other can put restrictive conditions on their independance, you may for example want to kill random people to let it all out but you don’t want the families to have to mourn - but if you wanted you could just say to yourself to ignore concience, and fuck the consequences

p.s. i’m not considering actually doing this, it’s just my tense moments, i know that people are gonna die eventually and that prison would be uncomfortable - we are much more within society’s influence than vice versa, and it has the power to restrict personal freedoms when it considers something wrong regardless of your individual opinion

I think Mr. Voth is saying that society is nuts, but religion is a weapon?  Anybody able to help me out here?  I must say I find this quote confusing.  I would have to ask though, who the hell is David Voth?  I did a Google search and it turned up some dude advocating off-shore investing.
