A Clarification Please... (Vanity)
Curious... | 8/16/21 | Openurmind

Posted on 08/16/2021 3:44:48 PM PDT by Openurmind

I would like some clarification as to the truth of the rules and situation here on the FR. Several times over the last few years it has been mandated by certain users that a prerequisite for participating here, conversing here, or donating here is mandated that you must first be a White Puritan Christian. No exceptions or you are considered a Troll. You must believe what they believe exactly or you should hit the highway.

Anyone else conservative or not, are to be considered as just trolls and should excommunicate themselves and leave. This is an important clarification. Because if the owner Jim feels that only Christians of a certain Christian sect are allowed equal respect here or not. That certain one sect needs to be shared. Those who are not of that particular sect deserve the right to know that their participation and donations are not actually appreciated.

Is see animosity between even sects of Christianity battling each other here. Hate for Mormons, Hate for Catholics from Christians, Hate for Christians from Catholics, God forbid anyone who comes here and is honest and says they are an Orthodox Christian from ETHIOPIA! So what is it? Is this a domain site rule and mandate or not? Those of us who believe in the first amendment and freedom of speech and religion would like to know what the parameters are. What sect exactly is a prerequisite to participate here?

Are non Christians allowed here at all? Can one believe in God without belonging to a formal religious sect? Are any other faiths allowed based on freedom of religion? Please make this very clear, because if there is an underlying prerequisite and unwritten rule, there are many of us here who are not quite pure Bible thumping (perfect mandated sect) conservatives and would really like to know. Is our own Constitutional right to believe as we like respected here or not?

It is important to know... If those who do not fit the "exact parameters" judged as a prerequisite mandate are not appreciated and not equally respected or not. What are these please? Do these prerequisite mandates even exist here? In this fight for our country is it wise to throw the baby out with the bath water? But this baby wants to know if my patriotism and efforts to create dialog, discussion, and traffic as a conservative which equate to revenue are appreciated or not... No matter what my stance on faith might be.

Is the 1st respected here or not? If not what are the restrictive parameters limited to as a private domain? If only White Puritan Christians are allowed here then it needs to shared what sect exactly of hundreds??? A curious mind would like to know...

The issue started long before, a whole day before. Don’t twist this like a liberal would do. We cannot complain about their game plan and tactics if we do the exact same.

?!? I have nothing blocked. This isn’t Facebook.

Take a break and lay down. Once you remember which “certain users” foisted this “White Puritan Christian” notion on you (JFTR, it’s an unwritten rule on FR to ping these users once you allude to them), feel free to get back to me.

You keep responding to yyy statements I mean can you own up to anything? It doesn’t matter that it started a day before, what matters is people are responding to what you say and you’re whining about it.

Look... Did I go out of my way to name you all individually as a “direct attack” comment to you each in the OP?

No... In fact I have NEVER engaged or attacked ANYONE of you who are attacking me now. EVER...

So how about you back off as the “aggressive offender”...

So you made it all up, as I surmised. If it were real, then you might have had the courage to respect habeas corpus as it were.

My prior advice for you to lay down is still applicable, BTW . . .

SELF DEFENSE MODE... Know what? You are a lying piece of hypocritical crap. Absolutely no way am I going to let you spin this 180 from the truth... You attacked me and I am still defending myself. How can you lie so easily and then claim holy righteousness?

This is the exact mental instability I claim of many. “I am just if I lie for God”.

Not sure I have ever had to do this before...
***Wow, a rant. To yourself. I’ve never had to make a list like that.

Just had to make a note list of “Delusional radical extremist bigoted lying Christian nuts...”
***My list would be “Delusional radical extremist bigoted lying faux-Christian heretical nuts”. You would be the only one on that list. Maybe you need to just add more bran to your diet.

Honestly, first time ever... Do any of you ever actually read what you are spouting here?
***Dude, you’re getting your @$$ kicked. Why not just take that critical thinking class and use this interchange as your template to learn from. You’re going off the deep end, whackadoodle.

You do not see the illogical and irrational words of what you say?
***Do YOU? Because we EXPLICITLY point it out to you. Whereas you, you seem to have this weird expectation that just because you feel strongly about sumthin sumthin that everyone should see it plain as day. And you DON’T explicitly point anything out. Ever.

It is a false witness testimony and lie.
***Bullshiite. You’re just retreating to religious language because you don’t know what to do nor how to do it. This makes you doubly a heretic and false teacher. You deserve this table turning treatment.

You are twisting everything from reality into your own little fanatical fantasy world of self righteous bigotry.
***Kiss off, heretic. I explain my reasoning with each individual paragraph while YOU simply DON’T.

Even if we have to LIE!,
***Then point out the lies, jack@$$.

Stone him!, Excommunicate him!, Burn him at the stake!
***Use that hyperbolic exaggerating religious imagery for your straw argument, like a good heretic.

GOD WILLS IT!!!
***Yes, God does will it that we confront heretics and false teachers like you.

Honestly... I am now very sure I am NOT dealing with any kind of rational mental stability here...
***Interestingly, so am I and I can see there are other freepers in agreement, so the expression is “so are we”. You’re the nutcase here, heretic.

The logic behind this whole conversation is scaring the hell out of me.
***Good. Maybe you’ll start using that brain God gave you and start putting together some coherent logical arguments. As it stands now you’re simply a heretic, a false teacher who deserves the same kind of harsh treatment that Jesus gave such people.

SELF DEFENSE MODE...
***It is not self defense mode just because you arrogantly proclaim it. You are the one originally who went on ‘attack’ and you are the one who posted this heretical opus. You’re in OFFENSE mode, heretic.

Know what? You are a lying piece of hypocritical crap.
***Pure ad hominem over-the-edge bullshiite, what we expect from whackadoodle heretics.

Absolutely no way am I going to let you spin this 180 from the truth...
***You keep sayin that shiite but not demonstratin’ anything along those lines. Because you are incapable of it. You don’t know how to argue, all you know how to do is draw down logical fallacies. All in defense of a heresy.

You attacked me and I am still defending myself.
***You attacked another freeper, I stepped in and have been aggressively correcting a false teacher heretic ever since.

How can you lie so easily and then claim holy righteousness?
***Ask yourself that question, heretic.

This is the exact mental instability I claim of many.
***It does not surprise me that you CLAIM of many that THEY are mentally instable. Classic projection. You’re off in the weeds, dude. Heretic dude.

“I am just if I lie for God”.
***Sounds like sumthin you would say, yep. Feel free to use some bible verses, skippy, as you promote your heretical beliefs.

Know what? Don’t try to game me... It is all right there in my posting history... Timestamps do not lie... But, even if you read it for yourself straight up you do not have the honesty to admit you are wrong. You would STILL LIE... You do NOT have the integrity to tell the truth and admit you might be wrong.

This is the exact reason I am learning to hate self-righteous bigots. They claim righteousness but lie and twist the faith to fit their own selfish agenda.

You do not have God... You lie... You might be able to lie to yourself, but you cannot lie to me, or lie to God. He would NEVER tell you that is OK to lie your ass off in his name to persecute others.

I now accuse you of being a false believer, You use God as an avenue for your own selfish agenda and sadistic fetishes against others.

And you are an absolute dishonest liar... Straight up...

Thanks Christian brother, for yet another fine example of hypocrisy and bigotry. You are not doing your own faith any favors bro...

You would do better to not claim to be a representative of the faith. Because you are drowning in immorality about now with your straight up ignorant lies.

Well, the true colors start to show. He’s an Unhinged Heretic singing some kind of Bohemian Rhapsody.

Is this the real life?
Is this my fantasy?
Caught in a landside,
No escape from reality
Open your eyes,
Look up to the skies and see,
I’m just a dumb boy, I need some sympathy,
Wishin I was easy come, easy go,
Little high, little low,
Any way the wind blows doesn’t really matter to
Me, to me
Mamaaa,
Just pinged a man,
Put a thread against his knack, banged my keyboard,
Now he’s back
Mamaaa, life had just begun,
But now I’ve gone and thrown it all away
Mama, oooh,
Didn’t mean to make you cry,
If I’m not back again this time tomorrow,
Carry on, carry on as if nothing really matters
Too late, my time has come,
Sends shivers down my spine, body’s aching all
The time
Goodbye, everybody, I’ve got to go,
Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth
Mama, oooh
I don’t want to lie,
I sometimes wish I’d never been born at all.
I see a little silhouetto of a man,
Scaramouch, Scaramouch, will you do the Fandango!
Thunderbolts and lightning, very, very frightening me
Galileo, Galileo
Galileo, Galileo
Galileo, Figaro - magnificoo
I’m just a dumb boy nobody loves me
He’s just a dumb boy doesn’t know a fallacy,
Spare him his life from this dumb vanity
Easy come, easy go, will you let me go
Bismillah! No, we will not let you go
(Let him go!) Bismillah! We will not let you go
(Let him go!) Bismillah! We will not let you go
(Let me go) Will not let you go
(Let me go)(Never) Never let you go
(Let me go) (Never) let you go (Let me go) Ah
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
Oh mama mia, mama mia, mama mia, let me go
Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me, for me,
For meee
So you think you can stop me and correct my lie
So you think you can fight me and leave me to cry
Oh, baby, can’t do this to me, baby,
Just gotta get out, just gotta get right outta here
Nothing really matters, Anyone can see,
Nothing really matters,
Nothing really matters to me
Any way the wind blows...

Know what? I am going to admit it is my fault. I should have first remembered that on the Free Republic you might just get into a conversation with an Alzheimer’s or Dementia sufferer. I deal with this all day long here at home and should have remembered this. What is logical and real is the opposite to those with this condition.

They live in an alternate world not even close to logical reality or raionality. But to them in their mind is is indeed real. And it is impossible to show them what is real, they have already made their mind up in their own little world of irrational alternative reality.

Hard to explain reality to those who no longer even understand what the concept of reality is anymore. It doesn’t compute, and never will compute. Like trying to explain the color blue to a blind person. I really should have considered this possibility early on in this exchange.

It would explain the total irrationality and lack of reality from all directions of this exchange I am having trouble understanding...

What’s in your posting history? I’m not digging around in there after the way you treated everyone on this thread, now.

You would have a bit more credibility (and possibly sympathy) if you had just linked the posts you’re referring to, but no . . . instead you’re doubling down on the ad hominem which is now flowing out of you like lava out of Geldingadalur over in Iceland, along with the plainly leftist talking points like “self-righteous bigots” (an apt description of a leftist, FTR).

Guess it’s just a matter of time before viking kitties have their meal . . . and I accept your apology for wasting my time . . .
