Well, speaking personally, though a gnostic minister, I rather enjoy using off- color language sometimes. Plus, this site came into existence as a marketing tool for a second rate movie,(so it’s not a religious site with automatic censoring) and became a home for a few highly intelligent folk, believers and atheists alike, who enjoy each others company, and feel comfortable enough to swear around each other.
Who the fuck wants to know?
You might want to think seriously about spending a little time here, getting used to the community, before you criticize. That’s good advice for any forum, BTW. I suggest you use it.
Welcome.

For one, I was not being critical, I was asking a simple question. Based on your reply, you think that it is ok in the eyes of God to use this type of language. I have since realized that this is not a religious site but a typical ruse used by the liberals trying to tickle ears and make themselves think that they are doing “right” based on their beliefs, not by the Lord’s beliefs. I suppose that gay marriage and abortion are ok too? Please reply back, I am itching to read your response.

Good Lord, TBP. Let me let you in on something: I can out- redneck you any day. Assuming that this is some sort of left wing plot to point us toward satan is laughable and jingoistic. The biggest reason I avoid my fellow conservatives is that they (we) can be just as kneejerk and dogmatic as those on the left. Besides, re- read what I wrote: this forum started out as a marketing promotion for “I am Legend,” and grew into a place where we can converse on pretty much any subject. There aren’t liberal boogiemen hiding behind every corner.
As to what is OK in the eyes of G-d…
Oh. Let me save you some time. Since the next question will be, “why don’t you spell out G-O-D?” Jewish tradition, and a sign of respect. Anyway.
Not sure I can tell you what is OK in the eyes of G-d, since I’m not Him, just a faulty extension of Him. Do YOU presume to know?
As to the two political issues you reference: Don’t give a rat’s ass about gay marriage, in practical terms. In purely philosophical terms (and I’m an occultist, so bear with me) it violates the Hermetic Laws of Polarity and Gender. Still, that’s akin to angels dancing on the head of a pin, so I still don’t give a rat’s ass.
This will make you happy: I’m against abortion.
So, itch scratched? Was my response all that you were hoping for?

Thanks for the scratch. I am surprised that you took time away from Civil War reenactment to reply. I will not be replying back to this site, so don’t waste your time. It is obvious that I stumbled across some inbred, nascar, voodoo website. You have taken a simple question and blown it out of proportion. No wonder you only have three people that post to this site. Oh one last thing, you had in your very first reply to my question, that there are a few highly intelligent folk that come to this site. I have yet to see that. Goodbye and good riddance.

Well, I guess he told me.
Excuse me, I have to get back to sticking pins in nascar cars. Or inbreeding with Civil War reenactors. Or something.

Hi Satol, we can split those duties if you like. I have lots of extra pins lying about and a few nascar pics. Since you are the expert, would it be better to stick the pins into the drivers’ heads or into the car itself? lol my friend…
Thanks for answering this joker, I appreciate it. I shall have to contact Admin. about him before (possibly) banning him. He doesn’t want to be here anyway… Anyway, the reason I need to contact them is when you go to his user profile and list his posts, there is a different user name listed next to those posts, dunno why and cannot find that other username on the list. It is possible to change your username here, but his posts should convert to the new name or vice/versa, I dunno (like I said…lol)
Let me know when you’ve read this and I will probably close the topic after. Thanks and love, buddy! Ken

tbarettpete, The answer to your question is that we allow off color language and some people use it. No matter what you may have been taught, there are no bad words, only bad people. (or perhaps bad situations, but I digress). If you have truly perused our site (and I’m beginning to wonder if you have), you will find that the people here are very nice even if we do use “bad” language occasionally.
We have started a dialogue here and we like it and enjoy talking with each other. I’m sorry that our site is not large enough or holy enough for your tastes. You may resign at any time. We are sorry that you feel that way.

We’ve had lengthy discussions about gay marriage and abortion, TBP, if you care to look through the site a little more and learn the truth of what it is, which is exactly what Satolkin represented. Not all of us use the language you seem to so despise. I’m not sure I ever have here. That doesn’t make me any better than anyone else, though.
You probably won’t be reading this, so it’s just for my satisfaction and that of my friends still on here, but you’re welcome to stick around and share your views, though I hope you’ll learn to listen better if you do. I, for one, am a strongly conservative Catholic. Sounds like you might like the first part, but my guess is that given your tone, presumptions, and condemnations here, the latter makes me in your view in league with the antichrist. Well, good luck with that. I hope your apparent desire to follow God leads you into a more honest search for truth and a more loving attitude towards others.

I may delete a couple lines from my posts above. I don’t intend to ban pete, or anything like that. I wasn’t very welcoming, and that’s my job, guys. Especially with absy gone so much and the disappearance of ratboy, I’m the only mod right now. So, I must strive to be nicer than usual, too. I am hoping that pete will be curious enough about our responses to come back and then we’ll see what’s up. I am here every day, tho. So, if you need me for ANYTHING, guys, just post! You know I WILL see it. Don’t nuthin’ much get past your Auntie Kookoo here, you know…
You know I care for all of you very deeply. But, we could use a bigger band of outlaws, as always. Let’s hope we can recruit a few more this fall for our first anniversary party! I love you all! -Ken
