After looking at this thread I began to wonder if murder is actually sinful. I mean, if I kill someone the they must've actually deserved it, right? Then I'm just doing justice. And since I'm a creation of God, I'm pretty much allowed to use my own conscience and reason. Sure the "10 Commandments" say not to kill, but Jesus fulfilled the law, right? And we are all priests. Besides, the "commandments" are only, like, suggestions anyways, right? We don't really use the Sabbath anymore!  |

Or, you could quit making these smarmy little self-congratulatory threads, and just go scratch yourself.

That's it, I'm cutting you off for the night. You've had way too much to drink! I may be a "misogynist dumbass" (in your own words) but I know when you're intoxicated. |
