The_Valeyard

It seems it's too Catholic and offending our Orange Order cousins.

So, RIP...... RIP.










I think not.

Mr. Incognito

People have been arguing over their own particular idea of God for eons.

Once you build a fallacy it's unlimited how many other fallacies you can tack on.

It's like arguing over the colour of a unicorns fart.

Rainbow farts are reserved for giant realistic flying tiger!

Common misconception, unicorns are mystical creatures whose bodily function are inconceivable to mortals. Their farts are darker than a blackhole and at the same time brighter than a supernova, and they smell like the Cthulhu's nightmares.

As for our crazy northern brethern, let them waste their time on nonsense.

AllForIt

Orange Order demand or not I've always found it a rather silly inappropriate expression.

There's only one way to settle this: Raise an army, each of you, and burn Ireland to the ground in decades of bitter, savage and destructive war

^ the apparent logic of most world religions when it comes to disagreements...

Honestly, belief itself isn't the problem, but the psychopathic insistence of some humans that anyone who disagrees with their opinions deserves to be killed.

Jaysus, don't do that.... I thought Rip Van Winkle was dead.

It's Latin - the language of the Harlot of Rome!

Resurrect Ian Paisley.

The Orange Order in Northern Ireland has asked its members to stop using the term 'RIP' to express grief or sympathy after a death.

I didn't know you were a member OP.




*secret handshake*

Noveight

Mr Thompson said that for him, 'RIP' is a prayer and he did not encourage prayers for the dead.

Like most of the Orange Order, Mr Thompson doesn't have enough real life sh!te to worry about.

No surrender to the RIP.

I dunno. Recently overheard a Northern Irish kid (7 - 10 year old) telling his friend that he loves the IRA because they kill "those jaffa cnuts". There are knuckle draggers on both sides and they are bringing up their children to think the same way so there will always be hatred. Felt like punching him but his parents were close by. The father was scary looking but the mother was worse!

Field of punishment for them fellas, endless prade routes but they're not their prade routes or themes, pride prade, Saint pattys Day, ST Patricks day, Thanksgiving Day, underlying theme only green maybe worn and no drums.

Orange men pfft.

It's ironic that the LOL are one fcuking humourless bunch.

I think we should definitely pander to these people once again.

Nothing wrong with RIP, and anyway, what's the replacement term meant to be? Did they say?

Saying RIP is a tradition
I'm sure the Orange Order will understand that

Samaris

I thought this was going to be a protest thread about people starting RIP threads.

If the Orange Order want to do weird stuff that doesn't harm anyone else...well, it's better than many alternatives, I guess.

I would imagine it's like a mixture of colours, kinda like a rainbow

According to 'Wikipedia' a Unicorn's fart - methane heavy, wouldn't you know it - is 'Teal', which everyone knows, is a blue-green colour similar to 'Cyan'.
The bird 'Teal' (Anas crecca) is basically a migratory duck renowned worldwide for their 'Cerise' coloured farts.
A popular misconception is that 'Anas crecca' means 'crack in arse', but apparently not because the spelling is incorrect.

As Frankie Boyle says "If you're an anti-gay organisation like the Orange Order, then you'd imagine the best way to prove you're definitely not gay isn't to march up and down the streets in bright colours, with sashes and batons.

Typical RC answer.
No chapter. No verse.
Just a wikipedia reference. Not biblical.

The wisdom of Solomon indeed 'Mr. Topper 75' - 1 Kings 4:29 - ''Now God gave Solomon wisdom and very great discernment and breadth of mind, like the sand that is on the seashore.
