Save the religious talk for SOCN.         If you ever get in, of course. I wouldn't let you in based on what I've seen of your posting and attitude so far. What?   Are you kidding me? That goober thing initiated the religious tone to the thread. I simply responded.   HE brought religion into the discussion, appertaining specifically, to his dislike of BU2B due to his religious persuasion.   If he is unable to accept comments based upon his highly emotive statements, then he needs to grow up.   Simple as that...

Great, a thread that was once discussing Clockwork Angels in a civil matter is going off the rails on a crazy train. Shame, where's 73 with water to put out this flame?

Every action has an equal and opposite reaction a reaction that completely blows the initial action out of proportion and destroys any chance of having a civil discussion.         I dub thee: Law of Terrapin.

Oh dear, We really have have some religious nuts here that are ACTUALLY offended by Peart's lyrics... How hilarious! Pretty much sums it up really. Your "faith" is so weak that lyrics from a musician you will never meet can cause SO much vitriol and an irrational, almost deranged sense of defensiveness... Peart states that he is "Faithless" and then the brainwashed cattle start posting en masse. Keep it coming, loving the entertainment! Here's one: "A terrapin walks into a church full of "Believers"...

Terrapin, welcome to the board.

 

You're new here (or, maybe not so new), so here are the ground rules as far as religious discussion: Discussion of politics and religion is not permitted outside of Sense O'Clock News, our politics section. Any discussion of Neil's lyrics in the Rush section that pertain to religion should focus on his lyrics, not about YOUR personal religious beliefs.

 

So, now you know. So far you seem to be getting off on telling people their beliefs are wrong, and if that's why you joined here -- to bash the religious folk -- you might want to rethink that.

Whether anyone agrees with him or not is another issue. Publicly no one has laughed at me or mocked me but Terrapin has determined that everyone has. Get it? I missed the part where he said that "everyone" has mocked you.   It's obviously just as presumptious as saying that "no one" agrees with him just because they haven't posted as such.   Oh well, let the continue

Oh god. This guy is purely trying to hard. I laughed so hard.

ok, sorry, not to belabor the point, but maybe if we all just got together and shared some yummy bacon, all our other petty differences would fall away and the world would be a much happier place.

Even though he's been here since '07, he's got less than 50 posts and probably doesn't know the deal, and my little post there may have gotten buried right after I posted it.   I'm closing this for 10 minutes to stop the bleeding a bit, then I'll reopen it.   In the meantime, everyone go get a drink and relax.   EDIT: I saw Terrapin was in the act of posting, and I wanted to see what he had to say (fun!), so I reopened it.

It's actually open again? 10 minutes usually means eternity in admin-speak.
