I'm the hardass now? I wasn't going to mute you if you learned to quote. I
personally did not even have a problem with your taking up irrelevant side
arguments. Clearly, other moderators are not actually as nice as I am.
You have been warned on the thread specifically to stop enormously ridiculous quoting, yet you
continued.
The fact is not whether or not you understand what trolling is: you are
consciously also quoting parts of the thread, picking up ARGUMENTS which are not
relevant to the topic at hand. Do posts constituting what you think are badly
written really have to be stated or quoted to pick up a discussion in relation
to science and religion? No, I think it's just being rude and you're prompting
people to either reply or not reply in
"defeat", which is EXACTLY what Marissa was talking
about.
It doesn't matter if you don't know what trolling is. Google it.
Calling moderators hard asses won't get you anywhere, either.
You obviously haven't read the Policy well enough to even have the privilege of
posting. Even though I'm a gallery mod, I like to read in the forums, but more
than 15 quotes in a single post is really pushing it.
I'm sure I'm not the only one who doesn't want to see it.
Sorry for being so harsh to you in my thread. It's just like you're not reading
what I write and thinking about what you're writing before you write it and it
really gets on my nerves sometimes. I'll try to be more patient with you. Once
again, sorry.

Don't worry, I already did that a few years ago already. =P
Quote: Also,could you give me a
link to something about the crusades?I would like to research this event and see
whats the cause of such things.Like i said,im educated about history and yet
there is always more history to learn.One last thing,science and religion should
go together,i think.they both seem reliable in information and they both have
the bads and the goods of their sides.(when i say religion,im going to have to
mean Christianity since this is the religion that has the most evidence
supporting it,and the things said in the bible that make absolute
sense.)
There are many sites where you can learn about the Crusades. I hope these help.
Also, I do believe science and religion go together. Its sometimes difficult to
tell people that. I
hope that you enjoy the links and have a blessed day.
P.S. While I'm at it, I know that there are many here in the forum threads that
attack what you say. I think that it might be a good course of action to use a
little more tact when you word your replies. Things might get understood better
and other might not think of your replies at direct attacks to them. Ok? I
hope you don't misunderstand what I said because I meant it in a good way.
I think that you're very convicted in your beliefs. That's a very good thing.
Sometimes we Christans can be called "pushy" and I think its best to
be the other way around. I like to be the one to be a gentle reminder that God
exists and He and His son love everyone. Its also sometimes difficult to bring
others to know Christ. I just wanted to let you know that you're not alone, just
others take different approaches when trying to get through to unbelievers.

a person who posts message to bait people to answer. A troll is someone who
inspires flaming rhetoric, someone who is purposely provoking and pulling people
into flaming discussion.
You, sir, whether you mean to be or not, are a troll. You certainly look like
you MAY be able to make non-trollish posts, but if you do not curb your trollish
leanings, you will soon find yourself unable to make ANY posts, be they trollish
or not. This is not a threat, it is a statement of fact.

Quote by kingray100what are you talkng
about?I dont even know what trolling is!I dont even think its that big of a deal
whatever trolling is.Are you abusing your power or
something?
If you do not know what trolling is, then you are
not fit to make a judgement on whether or not it is "a big deal."
However, if you are so ready to come to that conclusion, I can see that it is
inevitable that your posting priveleges will eventually be taken away, whether
it be by me or another moderator. This is not an abuse of power, if I were doing
that, I would have banned you.
I believe we're all human, ray. Do you really have to be so insensitive about
people who are different from you?
Is it because you think you're not insensitive and we, atheists are instead?
Is it because you demand proof for your insensitivity?
If you need proof for that, why can't we demand proof for the existence of God?
Not that I need it though, but others do.
Quote by kingray100and here we go with
the doubtful person again.why do you always insist that people are lying and
cheating all the time?you really think that some guy lied about salvation and
wrote hundreds of pages of nonsense?if you say yes, then you full of nonsense
because you need to realize that everything you see isnt what it is like in
2007.Just because your best friend lies to you sometimes or your parents dont
speak the truth all the time doesnt mean that the bible is fake.you need to keep
an open mind and at least think it over before you come up with a lousy
conclusion like that.
I sincerely apologize that my poor english has led you to misunderstand my post,
so poor that you thought that it was a conclusion, or that it concluded my view
on religion in general.
I'm not insisting that people are lying and cheating all the time, I'm just
literally stating the obvious fact that humans have the ability to lie and
cheat.
Maybe I have used the "what if" incorrectly, I was just trying to say
that I do not rule out the possibility that it could be a form of human
manipulation. Just to let you know how I use "what if'', for example, if I
said that "what if the bible is fake?" it would be equivelant to me
saying that "what if the bible is true?"
And no, I wasn't trying to say that the Bible is fake. I was wondering whether
the 'Bibles' I see today in 2007 are similar to the original Bible. Similar as
in its contents. And I don't think I had mentioned anything about the people who
wrote the original Bible.
And being a doubtful person, I wouldn't be able to take absolute stances like
"people are lying and cheating all the time" and "the bible is
fake" since when I think that someone is lying, I would have this doubt
that he may be telling the truth.
And lastly, to be more specific on the religious people who I find annoying,
- they are people among religious people (and I believe that they are only a
small group among the religious people)
- they would come up to you and say things like "the bible is true, join
our church"
- and they would say that you are stubborn, shallow, blasphemous if you asked
them why
- they would also tell you things like the chinese mediums are cheats
- while they also tell you that it is a sin and you would go to hell if you
question the bible
and only a few out of the religious people that came up to me are like that..
the majority of them tried to clear my doubts on Christianity
and as the title of this thread implies, it said "religions" so I am not just talking about
Christianity alone, it happens that the religious people I mentioned are
Christians because, so far, only Christians have asked me to join them.
sorry about taking so long to approve your request to join the Christian
Fellowship group here on MT; just wanted to let you know I went through today
and "moderated", so... yeah. welcome to the group.
I think you should be more friendly to other posters kingray, and it is his
bussines.It's against MT policy to revive threads that are older then 4 weeks or
so, he was just trying to help. Moderators will come and close down threads like
the one you revived, and sometimes give the person who revived them a warning if
you do it too much.
Do not take this as a negative post, this is just a friendly heads up.

Hello there, I've noticed that you are a member of Hardcore Gamers group, but
you haven't been active there for some time. I guess that's because the group
was abandoned, but now I've reloaded it with Cortana (melymay ) so feel
free to come back from time to time and check out brand-new look at:

holidays and all that comes with it, so enjoy yourself^^
Quote by kingray100y cant u leave the
thread on?its not like its harming anyone.u shouldnt hav the power to close it
just because it doesnt create a deep conversation.
I'll start by pointing out that thread was in the 'In-depth discussion' forum
and was given the opportunity to stay open when it was created, however the
bumps were one line reponses and a comment 'i'd hit it' really decided the fate
of that one.
