What is it with tonight?

We already have a religious thread.

Just another one. Sorry if its kind of unnecessary.

This thread falls in violation of the rule on opening posts, I'd suggest you expand your OP if this wasn't technically duplication..

What is there to discuss?

by **Keventle** » Sat Aug 30, 2014 9:16 pm

Atheism isn't a religion...

Religion, because religious debates on NSG always end well

I know. It is just if you don't have a religion you select that option.

It's a belief.A faith if you will.

There is already a thread devoted to general religious debate as well as one for most of the major religions out there. This is completely unnecessary.
And I am a bit bothered that you chose to name my beliefs as other.

I smell either puppetwanking or a large bastion of Christians intentionally ganging up on the thread - I mean look at the poll results...

Ok, on NS, the religious are the minority and get treated as such./thread

I guess that?

Anyway... Buddhist, as per the community service agreement.

That's hardly true. It's the far-right fundamentalists who have their beliefs laughed at, not ordinary religious folk.

Bring out your Zoroastrians, and Manicheans!

You must be new here?

It's the lack of one specific belief. And, though it is possible to have faith in it, not actually a faith.

I thought violet was NS's religion.

Well until the anti-theists get involved then it becomes fun.

Why is this thread even here? We already got a good religion thread. Also I see this one is going south. So boys and the Almighty district, lets get out of Dodge!

Little known fact: the name "Manichean" comes from the tendency of it's followers to loudly and repeatedly announce, "Mani Khai!" (Mani Lives!)

So let's not bring them out. In fact, let's keep them far, far away.

by **Lingang** » Sat Aug 30, 2014 9:23 pm

What's there to discuss? No argument, nothing in the OP. What the hell is this?

tbh I'd rather have temporary anti-theists than seemingly permanent fundamentalists ;P

Well they are hardly as bad as the Samaritans, and those "Mandaeans"
