I hate hate hate the christian mentality that tries to take the very joy out of life! And what really ticks me off is they want to pick on fun holidays that children enjoy usually. They never want to pick on holidays they enjoy...like valentines day were there is a chance they could be gettin some nookie...oooh noooo...those are safe because the jackasses love those! Easy targets are the kids...let's take their fun away!Arising_uk wrote: ↑Tue Oct 31, 2017 1:12 amMust be a 'god' given coincidence.thedoc wrote:...

Re: Happy Halloween!
It's not an 'excuse'. Actually it had never entered my head that it was a christian celebration, or even thought of as one. I think it's pretty obvious that it isn't. Are you telling me that Americans actually think it's a christian holiday? How stupid are they exactly? Is there NO limit?thedoc wrote: ↑Tue Oct 31, 2017 12:39 amThat depends, the traditional Halloween has nothing to do with Christianity, but All Saints day happens to fall close to Halloween, which gives some anti-Christians the excuse to claim that Christianity stole the Holiday from pagans. This is a mis-characterization of the actual process, Christianity's important dates happen to fall on the dates of pagan festivals and allows Christianity to take advantage of an existing gathering.vegetariantaxidermy wrote: ↑Tue Oct 31, 2017 12:15 amWhat does Halloween have to do with Christianity?artisticsolution wrote: ↑Mon Oct 30, 2017 10:52 pm
Sry to tell you, doc... Christianity trumps cantankerous bitch day. Lol
Re: Happy Halloween!
Years ago when Jesus Christ Superstar went on the road people were protesting that the show was anti-Christian, I ignored them and went to see it anyway, most of the Christians I know like the music and the show. The Christians I know don't ban anything, they work to incorporate it into Christianity.artisticsolution wrote: ↑Tue Oct 31, 2017 2:59 amI know the kind of christians who ban Harry Potter books for being satanic, ban halloween for being "the devil's holiday", etc. Banning kids fun holidays based on adults perverse sense of sin is big among christains.

Re: Happy Halloween!
I used to have a very similar mindset around the type of people who dress up to play dungeons and dragons. But eh, it's just people enjoying themselves with a little harmless hobby. We're all guilty of that.vegetariantaxidermy wrote: ↑Tue Oct 31, 2017 3:17 amIt WAS something for children, but idiot adults now dress up, so it's just a dress-up day for adults, and as far as I can tell 'anything goes' in regard to what to wear.

...You say that, but here you are calling them morons when you probably enjoy some things that are just as or more mindless. When it comes to personal hobbies, I try not to make judgments if it seems harmless enough, because I think it's all pretty subjective at the end of the day.

Re: Happy Halloween!
I just said I don't care what they do. Notice how the yanks assume everyone else celebrates their stupid customs? You don't see English people coming on here making threads of 'Happy Guy Fawkes' do you?? Or 'Happy cheese rolling day'. Or 'Happy bank holiday'. Or Australians with 'Happy ANZAC day'. Or Scots with 'Happy haggis eating day'.... It's their gigantic yank egos and arrogance that is so offensive.Sir-Sister-of-Suck wrote: ↑Tue Oct 31, 2017 7:33 am ...You say that, but here you are calling them morons when you probably enjoy some things that are just as or more mindless.

I don't see anyone assuming that, here? Besides, I was pretty sure that Halloween is celebrated pretty internationally. Do you mean that the adults just don't dress-up over there?

Re: Happy Halloween!
It's a yank thing. No one else bothers. But it's creeping in. That's called 'globalisation'--which actually means 'Americanisation'. It wouldn't matter except that it's a shit country with a shit 'culture' and no class, taste or sophistication. (Plus it's a land of phony, brain-dead loud-mouths).Sir-Sister-of-Suck wrote: ↑Tue Oct 31, 2017 8:54 am I don't see anyone assuming that, here?

Anyway, somehow you always seem to drive the discussion back to your hatred of america, even on something as meaningless as a holiday where people dress up for fun. I think you should pick and choose your battles more carefully, because when your criticism really matters, people will be more inclined to not take you seriously.

Re: Happy Halloween!
Well, I didn't say it that it doesn't matter at all, my point was that you should be more hesitant to use such bombastic language so you don't desensitize your insults when focused on the things that really matter - like those middle eastern wars you're always going on about, and not just some holiday where adults now get to dress up at their leisure.
I would tell you that maybe you should learn some basic reading comprehension, but I'd honestly prefer if you just learned some basic manners.
