There are many people that call themselves Christians who necessarily aren't. Like half of Sweden calls themselves 'Christian' because it's officialy and historically a "Christian"nation, but that doesn't mean that they're actual believers or are practicing the Christian religion. As far as ive seen akuma58 in the debates on VGC he dont appear like a Christian at all to me. Im just saying what my impressions are. If im rong he will correct me. |
Being a Christian doesn't require you to be a fundamentalist who thinks that pi is 3.00 because the Bible says so. And yes, I have seen Christians make that exact argument based on biblical text, and that the world is flat because Jesus could see the four corners of the earth. It makes me ashamed that Christianity perpetuates willful ignorance.
And what have you seen that would make me seem like I am not a Christian? Because I don't support a Christian military state? Because I think that separation of church, state, and science is actually A GOOD THING for Christianity? Or because I am liberal I am a less authentic Christian? I hate to break it to you, but you know very little about me.
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
