Random Politics & Religion #00

A lot of people will agree with you here; yet in same the very same forum many of those people will deride Muslims for their practices or speech patterns always thanking Allah for things and blessing the prophet every time they mention him.

There's certainly a double standard at play here.

Anyways it seems we were lacking in any religion topics lately.

I try to avoid Facebook unless I actually need to contact someone through it. There's a lot of God flying around my feed and I try very hard to not be that person you're talking about when it comes to friends and family.

Well most of them are pretty easy going it only takes one Atheist being a d bag to ruin the bunch.

This should go over well here:

http://www.politico.com/story/2015/03/ben-carson-gay-choice-prison-115744.html?hp=l4_4

Ben Carson, the retired neurosurgeon and potential Republican presidential candidate, said Wednesday that “a lot of people who go into prison straight, and when they come out they’re gay.”

The remarks were made on CNN’s “New Day” in response to a question from host Chris Cuomo, who asked if Carson thought being gay was a “choice.”

“Absolutely,” Carson replied.

Asked why, he went on to explain his prison theory. “So did something happen while they were in there?” he said. “Ask yourself that question.”

Carson made waves in 2013 when he compared gay marriage to pedophilia and bestiality in an interview with Fox News’ Sean Hannity.

“It’s a well-established, fundamental pillar of society and no group, be they gays, be they NAMBLA, be they people who believe in bestiality,” he said. “It doesn’t matter what they are. They don’t get to change the definition.”

He later withdrew from a commencement speech at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine after students and staff expressed outrage at the remarks.

“Of course, gay people should have the same rights as everyone else,” Carson told attendees at the Conservative Political Action Conference in 2014. “But they don’t get extra rights. They don’t get to redefine marriage.”

That guy is a *** ***.

lol, NAMBLA.

Last time I heard a NAMBLA reference was South Park !

Somewhere there is an attorney defending a pedophile his name is Saul ! Possibly Lionel Hutz !

Depends on the type of right-hand man you hire.

Are they a Starscream? If so, you're asking for trouble.
A fanboy? Well, what great evil doesn't want to be idolized.
A prodigy? Watch out, the heroes might convert them over.
A wild card? Look out, this person only exists to further chaos. BETRAY BETRAY BETRAY.

Also, always make sure your right hand is actually listening to the evil monologue and not planning to take you out once it's over. If you're at the half-way point of your story, you're pretty much finished.

See, this is where being Lawful Evil comes into play. You build a proper structured environment of evil.

And then you just keep really attractive apprentices and then once they start getting too good at what they do, off them and start over with another really attractive one.

I mean, sure, it may make you a terrible person to just off the person you're sleeping with because they might off you later, but...you're an evil overlord. Isn't that your thing?

Systematically having both a ***, lead hencher, and a plan to deal with internal threats all in one. It's even better if you've managed to get the indoctrinated to your cause. Then they might even willingly die for you.

That's the kind of law and order I'm talking about.

All this talk of lawful evil and evil makes me want to play D and D again.

Eh? If we're going to stereotype then at least do it right.

Introducing Sparthy's WHEEL OF ATHEISM. (Patent Pending)

#1. The Ex-religious atheist. Most likely harmed/emotionally assaulted/fed up with religion. Comes from a very religious family, uses atheism to lash out against perceived wrongs. Driven very strongly by emotions.

#2. The Neckbeard. Watched some videos on the internet and is now a master of time and space atheism. Believes him/herself to be superior based on a limited introduction to philosophical ideas. Essentially the other side of the Youtube Jihadist.

#3. The Scientist. An individual who lives by logic and through career choice has arrived at atheism. May or may not give a ***about the philosophical implications of God but sees Science as the most reasonable means to obtain answers. Since God relies on faith, the antithesis of the scientific method, QED atheism.

#4 The Contrarian. Religious nutbags are in no short order so this individual has decided to buck the trend and become an atheist. Enjoys the fact that people hate him/her, has no real desire to discuss the philosophical underpinnings of atheism, indulges in large amounts of counter-culture movements, trolls theists and is most definitely a member of the church of Vegan.

#5 That guy who just literally finished Nietzsche. Can't stop saying God is dead or stringing together other bite-sized catchphrases from history that favor atheism. Believes himself to be in possession of rare knowledge though said works have been available for centuries. Has begun to grow out a beard and 'stache to inherit the powers of philosophy.

Most likely a hipster, enjoys a good dose of nihilism.

That pretty much cover it nicely !

/clubs Sparhtos and steals patent. Patents it next day.

ALL HAIL NECKBEARD JESUS!

See I thought neckbeard was most commonly used as a pejorative for MMO players...and MRA

Basically almost everyone at 4chan

Lawful Evil is best evil. Nobody likes the selfish Neutrals *** and Chaotics exist just to betray you.

Ideally, you build a cult of personality surrounding yourself and have your minions develop their own reasons for serving you. Given enough time you won't need to pull a lever into a shark pit or execute someone for failing to off the heroes again.... they'll do it themselves.

Or alternatively just pull a Xanatos Gambit and be a plot chessmaster. You know everything, including who's probably going to betray you. Then you off them and stock the open slot with that hero who just crossed the moral event horizon.

"I shall call you Darth...Vader!"
Seriously? Where on Earth did Palpatine get that name from? Is there like a big handbook of Sith names? Like a baby book?

Speaking of beards it is sad that I can't grow a real beard...my dreams of becoming a lumberjack will forever be just dreams !

I'm either clean shaven look 14. Stubble look like a serial killer. Or attempt to grow a beard look like a prepubescent.


No good options !

First world problems I have a patchy beard !

Know what it's horrible? Those guys who have the "fail mustache". They desperately try to grow something and have that terrible barely-stached face. Can't even look at them.

I can grow a mustache if it was 1970 I'd be in style !

That or an ironic hipster mustache. But I don't' want to buy thrift clothes...


I can't even:



This is even worse...the scarf is too much I can't...

What I learned in the past year:

I can grow a mean porno stache. My beard game less so. Now I just need to work on my porn name and having poorly lit and edited scenes to 70s funk.

*insert saxophone solo here*

This is my all time favorite hipster meme though:

I'm glad I don't live near Williamsburg. It's bad enough TV has fully embraced the hipsters.

May I suggest Buck Naked !

"Richard Steele" so people will call you "Steele ***" in porno scenes.

I guess that's better than THE JEWS, CLIMATE CHANGE or GAY FASCIST.

One of the best episodes ever:

The cheesier the porno name the better.

The women are very creative.

Paige Turnah. Carmella Bing. All very good.

And yes there is a legit discussion:

Jewsy ***.
