Well F*** you too then.

[ILWL]

Every day and in every way, you expose yourself as a F****** idiot, an evil mental midget devoid of humanity and overflowing with blind hatred.

May Jesus Christ, the Son of God, take pity on your miserable soul.

Turn the other cheek Myron?
Love thy Neighbour?

Colonel:

He was, as many theologians will tell you, a wacko who said some absurd things. Those things are contained within the bible and contributed to his own demise.

Can you prove this and who were these Theologians and did they themselves have their own agenda?

Not so, he is still a work of fiction. No historians living at the time of Jesus - who would have known about him - ever recorded him.

Historians usually have an agenda of their own - Censorship by ommision and all that. As for those at the time is it possibly that the lowly status of the Nazerene may have meant that he could have just passed under their rader.

I know absurdity when I see it. If you believe in religion without any basis in fact you MUST then believe in fairies, mermaids, dragons and goodness knows what else.

Not quite what I was getting at.

How do you know the Earth revolves around the Sun?
How do you know man landed on the moon?

I suspect you know these things because you were told them!

I was joking with G&P.

FYI, though, I don't turn the other cheek.

If someone throws sand on me, I throw stones back at them -- in total disproportion to the initial offense.

In my real life experience, my approach deters those who wish to harm me from future transgressions.

And I am, after all, an imperfect human sinner.

Know you were joking with G & P - it was your reaction to the Colonel which had me - Was that out of proportion as well?

Don't we all Mr Proud!!!

My replies to the Colonel are tame compared to the vile, hateful slurs he incessantly spews against my religion and the defamations he has posted about me personally.

But I won't let the Colonel bait me into his cesspool of hate.

I don't hate anyone; never have, never will.

If someone does something to me in real life that would elicit hatred in most people, I don't hate that person.

Hatred is an emotion and therefore irrational; indeed, it is the most negative human emotion in that it clouds one's judgement and compromises one's soul, conceding victory to the transgressor.

I don’t waste my time or darken my soul with hatred.

Instead, I coldly and methodically plan and exact brutal revenge in a manner that leaves me beyond reproach and does not implicate me in any adverse way.

As I said, at this point in my life I am only an imperfect human sinner – but I am self-aware.

[GayandProud]

You had me totally taken in, I was thinking yeah hatred its baaaad, negative, dont let hatred win !! til I read the denouement !!

I am in the presence of a machiavellian mind methinks

I am absolutely truthful in saying that I do not hate anyone and never have and never will.

Hatred is an emotion that is alien to my psychological makeup; I am incapable of it.

Ironically, it might be more human if I did hate.

[GayandProud]

Ironically, perhaps it would make me more human if I did hate.

I knew it !! You are in league with Bushwalker !! You are a Kleptabalonian

I dont hate either, (Im with you on that one - its not worth the energy and it achieves nothing except to make me unhappy with all the hatred boiling around) Its better to let it go and be FREE ! I dont hold grudges or go in the huff. I say what I say and then its forgotten.

That old cliche - Lifes too short - well I really believe it - I also want to live in the moment (aaagh Buddhism is taking me over) - and try to think about right NOW and what I can get out of my life right NOW and really live this moment 100%. After all I might be dead tomorrow and what a waste if Id spent my last 24 hours full of hate and negativity.

Laugh and the World laughs with you ! Fart and you fart alone !!

Thats my motto

Well F*** you too then.

Although we may share an aversion/inability to hate, I daresay we diverge from that point onward.

I analogize certain intentional offenses directed at me to a loan that must be repaid with compounded interest.

I never become obsessed with revenge though.

In my experience, the opportunity to exact the type of revenge I described above eventually, indeed inevitably, presents itself at some point in future.

It may be days, months or years, but that opportunity will present itself.

So I meticulously plan the revenge, then leave it aside and move forward in life.

But when the opportunity presents itself, I seize it.

[ILWL]

Well my view is that when you hate someone or something - you pay it a compliment!

As for you Mr Proud - you are committing much mischief!!!!

[GayandProud]

Mischevious is my middle name ! (and my first name) (and my last name)

AHA then you are not aware that I have made everyone GAY by virtue of my being Lord of the Universe and having made you all up in my head !

[myron myron]

See my post above, which I edited enough times so that it precisely communicates my thoughts.

And I know what you're up to, wiseass.

Having read the thread in question - I would have to conclude that you are right - insofar you have put a smile on my face!
