Default hey doofus, stop spamming us, 'kay? (not you, F-S)...

Hey F-S, that's a great find, man!

Is that for real, or just a forum joke?

'Cause I mean, if that's anywhere near "for real", all I have to say is -

I love it!!!





This is exactly what we need. It has to come from individuals, through free enterprise. I mean, you know, the same thing as O'Reilly selling a "Don't Taze Me, Bro" bumper sticker.

You know, I mean, how can I say this.... um.... I'm an "equal opportunity hater", right? I hate everyone and everything "equally". I mean, there's no reason anyone oughta be arrogant enough to feel "special" in that regard.

You know, so when I hear about Muslims getting all outraged when someone pokes fun at their religion, my response is, "get over yourself, ya moron you...." Know what I mean? 'Cause like, I ain't about violating anyone's religion, but that doesn't mean I gotta respect it either.

No sirree Bob - in fact, I'd rather say, it's my God-given right to stick a big middle finger up into your God's eye (you know, whatever God "you" happen to believe in)..... um..... lemme give you analogy - did you ever see the movie "Conan the Barbarian" with Guv'nator Ahnuld and Sandahl Bergman and all that? Well, there's this great scene where Conan is talking about his God (Krumm, I think, was his name, r.... His... name).... you know, and he's talking to his little thief-friend guy, and they're like arguing over whose God is mightier - more powerful - "better", right?

And you know, "my" perspective on this, (my "personal" persepctive, not my "We the People" perspective) - is that "I", as a child of God, am pretty (*)(*)(*)(*) lucky to have been given whatever small glimpse of reality that I've been allowed to have, and I mean, I stipulate that whatever glipmse that is, it's just a tiny one, and even a tiny subset of the sum total of all the glimpses that people are getting out there -

And so I mean, to me, a model that says, "the reason you believe differently than I do, is only 'cause you're seeing that diamond from a different angle, and therefore you're seeing a different facet of it" - that kinda model, is much more operational, than a model that leads to an argument over "whose" perception of whichever "facet" of reality they happen to be looking at, is the Truth with a capital "T".

So you know, if you take your own personal beliefs so seriously that you can't countenance that anyone else might validly hold "different" ones, then you're just a fool - and an arrogant fool at that. And I mean, it sounds like "a lot" of these Muslims qualify in that regard, yes?

And so I mean, what's the best way to deal with someone who's "sensitive" that way? What do the psychologists say in that regard? Well, there are various "opinions", on what the "best" method is ( ) - but one of the more successful methods, involves a concept knows as "de-sensitization". See where I'm going with this?
