Knock down drag out open thread of all things precious to your doctrines and traditions.

Ok boys and girls here is a chance to defend what you hold dear and near to your religion. For years now I have seen threads that make statements that I do not agree with but can not respond to because they hide behind the guise of being a devotional, or a caucus, or ecumenical. So here is a chance for open debate for all things that have been closed to opposing views in the past.

There will be only two guide lines no personal attacks and no posting of numerous links in a response or making a point. If you can not argue a point don’t respond by posting links. Yes I know that it is not part of the posting religious guidelines, but this is my thread so I get to make up the rules.

I am limiting this to religion due to the fact I can not post it in both general discussion and religion.

If some one would like to start a thread like this in general discussion by starting off that they believe that Fords are better than Chevys or that Obama is better than a potato then do so. But please refrain yourselves not to bring up Fords or Obama.

One other thing if you do not post directly to me I doubt if I will know what you have said concerning a point so if you have posted to others and want my opinion then ping me. I do not have time to read all posts. With that said let the debates begin.

“Well as an evangelical, I truly believe that anyone who puts mayonnaise on a hamburger is going straight to Hell.”

Amen! And people wonder why they call it “MIRACLE Whip”. It’s divine!

Funny how the original poster has vaporized, after going on about how he was deprived of open discussion ...

They’re all alike.

I am a Zaist. I worship the almighty God of Pizza. He teaches me that all things are round and good, unless you like Sicilian.

So much better than when I was a Frisbetarian....where you believe that when you die you spend eternity on your neighbors roof.

Well, this thread didn’t turn out at all what I thought it would. It’s turning into a LOLcat thread. I suppose pinging Sling is in order.

The best revenge is to ignore it . . . and have fun!

Merry Christmas, even to all Trolls!

It seems that perhaps something I said triggered a major schism in the Christian Fellowship. In fact, perusing the pages of Wikipedia, I suddenly notice many Christian Churches that are not in fellowship with one another and it seems abundantly clear this is due to the comments I made in Post 40 of this thread. Hard to comprehend, but how does one argue with empirical fact?

Owl, before you die and go to hell, I would like to point out that the Bible is full of full of stories about Mustard Seeds.
Nothing about Mayonaisse. And that's because mayonaisse is of the devil.
Think about it.

Now, brother, there’s nothing inherently evil about mustard per say, but the unholy coupling of mustard and a hamburger is an abomination in God’s eyes.

Jesus, in fact was a huge fan of mustard, especially the spicy brown kind. I site Mark 6-39:

39 And he commanded them to make all sit down and put a sock in it. 40 And they sat down in ranks, by hundreds, and by fifties. 41 And when he had taken the five loaves and the two fishes, he looked up to heaven, and blessed, and brake the loaves into the shape of hot dog buns, and the fish became bun length frankfurters, and they were good. 42 Yea Mark did man the grill and Mathew made haste to fetch mustard and ketchup and relish, the kind that’s sweet but not nearly so sweet as India Relish, and onions and kraut and any manner of condiment that grows from the earth, skies and seas. 43 And they took up twelve baskets full of the fragments, and of the frankfurter ends which were thought to be disgusting by the Samaritans, and no one else was really all that hungry anyomre. 44 And He said unto them dress the frank in all My Father’s finery, but do not so bless the burger, for mustard and burgers shall not lie with one another as does it a hot dog, for My Father has said “This is gross.”

So let us go forth as Christ Commands us, and smite the non-believer and steal his croquet set, and soil his hammock for no good reason, but let us not besmirch the dog with mustard.
