You guys are just orthodox atheists. I'm a reformed atheist. Goats for baal on Sundays and blood of virgins for Obama on Wednesdays. I think Obama would enjoy the virgins themselves more. I know I would. |

"Wassup Fundies?" is the perfect invitation. "Wassup" shows how laid back we are around here. "Fundies" tells them how we think of them, and we are nothing if not honest. I have always thought that we are very laid back and honest people. I also feel that using the word "fundies" has an underlying message. A message that says, "We know who you guys are. You can come on over and hang out, but don't fuck with us. We're only laid back until someone tries to fuck with us, and then we'll rip you a new asshole." So anyay. That's my interpretation. Good job with the invite, Lazy. Thanks. I was trying to give a friendly, laid-back invitation that still showed who we were.  |

Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong here, but I thought Cockney was a sub-dialect of the British dialect of English. (I'm calling it a dialect because several countries speak what they call "english", but the language differs enough from country to country that they almost qualify as their own languages, for example American English verses Australian English.)

Cockney isn't a dialect, rather a name for people born in what was originally a very specific area of London, but nowadays just generically for Londoners. They don't have their own dialect as such, instead having their own rhyming slang, which initially developed as way of keeping outsiders in the dark as to their conversations. Cockney as a word derives from a 'cockeneye'- cock's egg, i.e something that can't be trusted.
Anyway, if any RR lurkers have anything to bring to this linguistic discussion, come on down.

I 'eard it came from a Satanic cult. Maybe some of the RR people can back me up on this one, guv'nor. |

Hey, I have read some of the other threads here and I am curious if fundamentalists are allowed to post about their views here?

We quite like having fundies turn up - but it's rare, and we tend to get drive-bys (like the 'do you believe in the rapture' person) who don't engage us in discussion. But if you mean are they allowed in general - hell yeah. We, unlike fundie boards, don't kick people out for disagreeing with us ;]

Discussion good, spamming us with a bunch of fundie bullshit, bad.
Discussion involves actually discussing your ideas without breaking down to personal insults. Spamming is linking to a bunch of Chick Tracts or whatever. Or spewing a bunch of shit because "your pastor said so".
Engage your brain. Hell Skyfire's a fundie, and he's been around for years.

Hey, I have read some of the other threads here and I am curious if fundamentalists are allowed to post about their views here? Go to the old boards and look up Carico. We let that dumb bitch rant about Jebus for enough posts to fill the Encyclopedia Britannia |
