    Marijuana causes people to have mad ideas and then get the munchies.

    You have just combined the two, that's all.

    yeah epiphany, divinely inspired, vision of god, I thought it was a very apt use of words.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,372 ✭✭✭im invisible


    thats not 'some wood' thats the ashes of last years palm, from palm sunday, (thats the sunday before easter sunday) which was burned last easter, and kept, ..in a box, somewhere, im guessing

    Ah the flying spaghetti monster, the barbed end of the humor of a psuedo intellectual whilst dealing with the issue of religion and or the beliefs of people they don't agree with.

    I'm no fan of religion myself, but people can believe in whatever the hell they like, it's none of my business if they want to rub dirt on their face one day a year.

    Glazers Out!

    did you just look that up in wikipedia to be smart? :rolleyes: pagans weren't always polytheistic, buddhists are heathens also and they don't believe in a god.

    I have a better idea. We throw all these sh1te atheist threads on a big pile and make a massive bonfire out of em. Then we stand around and have a few drinks and if you're lucky shag a fine beour down the field

    Ah yes, people who go around the internet misspelling old cliche words like pseudo intellectual to describe people they feel superior to.
    so what gives you the right to disrespect others beliefs? it's not exactly interfering with your is it
    its not disrespect, its a joke, it's also pointing out the ridiculousness of the idea of smearing ashes on your forehead to profess your faith. who are you doing it for? if you believe then god knows doesn't he, so there's no point in showing off to everyone else how much you believe in the savior.

    No, a poster on here called me up on it before.

    Some Buddhists believe in god(s). Buddhism has nothing to say on the existence of gods.

    You can double check that on wikipedia to be smart if you want. You have my permission. rolllllleeeeyyysss

    Is an epiphany what Catholics call an inappropriate orgasm...?

    No of course it doesn't, but there's nothing pseudo intellectual about what I said, it was a joke. However, slapping out old cliche terms like "pseudo intellectual" in reply to a joke is a bit pseudo intellectual.

    Anyway, DerangedDreamer already proved me wrong by coming up with a better one.

    Bad name? pointing out how ridiculous something is surely goes a long way towards eventually ending said ridiculousness?

    Why shouldn't we be doing this, I've been disrespected plenty of times, from many different people, one of which even said that morals come from religion, I have no religion, yet I still have morals and they didn't come from religion, they came from a fundamental understanding of right and wrong. but it's alright for him to disrespect me?

    To be fair you've some neck to be accusing me of wheeling out cliches when you're thread is based on one massive cliche itself.
    I do think you're a pseudo intellectual if I'm honest, you're taking cheap shots because you think it will gain favour with your peers, and the flying spaghetti monster gag was the cherry on top of the pseudo intellectual cake for me.

    You came up with the idea for the thread because you knew After Hours is a place where religion bashing is popular.

    I have no time for religion, but to my mind people should be free to believe whatever they like free from ridicule from people looking for cheap laughs.

    Glazers Out!

    So you're essentially admitting that you're no better than the hypocrites who go around preaching their religious bullsh1t whilst completely disregarding it in their actions.

    Thats one way to get back at those hypocritical religious morons.

    Im an agnostic but I dont get the fascination with putting down other peoples beleif system. Its pointless to me to rip other people apart based on there beleifs. The only time I will attack a beleif is when a double standard is used. A good one was when I was told by a guy wearing a cross bigfoot couldnt exist.

    Apart from that though I generally dont get people in my face telling me that my science is wrong and their beleif is right ect. So why not live and let live.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,705 ✭✭✭Johro


    I hate beleifs.
