Of the extermination of furfags

[Hunchman801]

It’s not despotism; it’s really pretty mild authoritarianism.

I wasn't referring to the act of deliberately lying in order to preserve someone's security, but to the fact that most people aren't bright and that it can be wise to take decisions for them regardless of their opinion.

[Adsolution]

And God is a lie to get people to act accordingly.

I’m pretty sure it’s not a lie if the people who are telling it believe it.

Just like my Meth statement.

Seeing as this was once a furfag thread now-turned druggie thread this may as well be the new Bakedfurs.org

Oh isn't that the episode where Stan's parents get some dude to pose as Stan's future self to try and get him away from the doob?

Mmmmmm meth shards up your pooper how lovely.

Ah yes that's a fantastic episode. The creators are quite brilliant with that sort of thing.

So, I asked my mom, who's a doctor, and she said that there's no way for cells to crystallize. She also disproved a theory I then conjured, that the crystals Rayfan mentioned are actually bits of the inhaled meth repositioned as a crystal. See, if they were to recrystallize, they would be nowhere near the skin, and the body surely wouldn't push them towards the skin. In fact, they would clutter in the lungs.

@spiral, first off, the fact that I don't remember the exact words of the cop shouldn't awaken any suspicions. And I did not check in any pro-junkie sites. I used Wikipedia and its references. Now, I will produce a fictional dialogue for the purpose of expressing my point to the full extent (I am talking like this because I can, BTW. It's such a relief to be able to express yourself easily after a long, hard day of struggling with Hebrew.)-

Me: "Consider this, spiral- coffee is bad for you, and it is very addicting. In fact, it is very harmful to your health, as recent studies have shown, and you can get critically addicted to it to the point when you need to go to rehab. Do not drink coffee ever. Coffee's bad, mkay?
You: "You can't compare coffee to (officially named) drugs. It's a completely different league. Drugs are indeed very bad for your health and are very addicting."
Me: "If they truly are so bad, and you are being honest, and you can convince people with this truth, why use lies? Once people will find out you lied to them, they will think drugs aren't bad at all, or at least not as much as they really are, and they will even have motivation to take some. That is, to stick it to the dirty liar."

I made this conversation up because I wasn't sure you'd answer what I wanted you to answer.

Related fact: Studies indicate that drinking 2-3 cups of coffee per day is good for your health.

If that's the case then I guess ketamine making its abusers incontinent to the point of needing hospital care is all a lie too.

[Keane]

And God is a lie to get people to act accordingly.

I’m pretty sure it’s not a lie if the people who are telling it believe it.

I doubt that all the ones that work at churches are actually religious. I personally do not believe the Pope believes.

As a religious guy, I can tell you- yes, they do believe. As much as I don't like Christianity, I do not believe in the common myth that the high ranked Christians are non-believers. There is something spiritual about them. You, as an atheist, would never understand that.

[Keane]

I will never believe that there are people who really make a church thinking that they can take 10% of the all the income from the people that follow them because God approves it.

[Hunchman801]

All I can say is that ketamine makes you feel real bad.

You, as an atheist, would never understand that.

Because you don't believe doesn't mean you can't understand.

You know, this kind of attitude really pisses me off. And wtf does it actually mean?

Wait, that is true? Churches really do take money from people who go there?! That's horrible!

First of all, just because you don't believe in god and you think you're 'enlightened' doesn't mean you can be intolerant. I'll do my best to explain it to you- I'm the only guy in my class who doesn't go to a synagogue every Friday night and Saturday morning. You may say I'm less of a believer than they are. Most people in Israel and everywhere, in fact, would agree with you. I wouldn't, though. I believe in the entity named god with all my might. That's what I meant when I said they're spiritual. Not all that 'spiritual new age' crap about 'becoming one with the mighty cosmic deity' or some shit. The plain act of believing in god sums up spiritualism for me. And in that way, priests and the Pope are spiritual. They do believe in god.
And when I say that as an atheist you can't understand it, I don't mean that I'm smarter or something. I simply mean that religious people can understand other religious people from other religions to some extent.

Why can't we understand it? Like Hunch said, you don't have to believe something to understand it.

Typical believer.

“Religion has convinced people that there's an invisible man ... living in the sky. Who watches everything you do every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a list of ten specific things he doesn't want you to do. And if you do any of these things, he will send you to a special place, of burning and fire and smoke and torture and anguish for you to live forever, and suffer, and suffer, and burn, and scream, until the end of time. But he loves you. He loves you. He loves you and he needs money.”

That's the main reason I hate Christianity. They took Judaism and distorted it until it was unrecognizable! The first word in that quote should be Christianity and not Religion. If you want, I will go through all the untrue things in that quote, one by one, according to Judaism.

No, because even though every story goes the same and the fucking Bible states it, there's always something that makes everything different.
