I've read so many horrible quotes I once had to stop reading the mainpaige for a couple of months. I get that too.

I don't love fundamentalism so much, because I was raised in it (ex-YEC/Catholic fundie here). It's not so easy to escape once you're in it, but FSTDT helps. Being able to laugh at what once terrified you is a great motivator.

Another thing I love about fundies is bringing this to their attention:Are you familiar with the Dungeons & Dragons alignment system? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alignment_%28Dungeons_%26_Dragons%29What alignment is Jesus Christ? Jesus hates lukewarm neutrals."So, because you are lukewarm--neither hot nor cold--I am about to spit you out of my mouth." (Revelation 3:16) That excludes the following neutral alignments: Neutral, Neutral Good, Neutral Evil, Lawful Neutral, Chaotic Neutral
Jesus came to Earth to bring division(which creates chaos).Matthew 10:34-39New International Version (NIV) 34 “Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. 35 For I have come to turn “‘a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law— 36 a man’s enemies will be the members of his own household.’
49 I have come to cast fire upon the Earth; and how I wish it were already kindled! 50 But I have a baptism* to undergo, and how distressed I am until it is accomplished! 51 Do you suppose that I came to grant peace on earth? I tell you, no, but rather division; 52 for from now on five members in one household will be divided, three against two and two against three. 53 They will be divided, father* against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against mother, mother-in-law against daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law. ( Luke 12:49-53) That excludes the following lawful(order and opposite of chaos) alignments: Lawful Good, Lawful Neutral, Lawful Evil
Jesus said he was not good.
"Why do you call me good?" Jesus answered. "No one is good--except God alone. (Luke 18:19) That excludes the following good alignments: Lawful Good, Neutral Good, Chaotic Good
After a process of elimination, there is only one possible alignment for Jesus Christ. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alignment_%28Dungeons_%26_Dragons%29#Chaotic_EvilIn addition, if I entertain the idea that the mythology in the Bible is real and that the dragons, satyrs, cockatrices and unicorns also mentioned in D&D are real, Jesus being Chaotic Evil explains why he is God. God = Satan"AND again the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and he moved David against them to say, Go, number Israel and Judah." (II Samuel 24:1)"AND Satan stood up against Israel, and provoked David to number Israel."(I Chronicles 21:1)"I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you this testimony for the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the bright Morning Star." (Revelation 22:16)
Morning Star = Lucifer
Isaiah 14:12-15
New International Version (NIV)
12 How you have fallen from heaven, Morning Star , son of the dawn! You have been cast down to the earth, you who once laid low the nations! 13 You said in your heart, “I will ascend to the heavens; I will raise my throne above the stars of God; I will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly, on the utmost heights of Mount Zaphon. 14 I will ascend above the tops of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High.” 15 But you are brought down to the realm of the dead, to the depths of the pit.

The other reason I like coming here, I need to get my "rage fix" - I get so pissed off I can work myself into rare form, and that helps me study and focus on my work. Hell yeah! In that way, I live up to my screen name. If I ever need any rageahol, I will either look up quotes on here, read up on some zero tolerance bullshit at schools, or go on yahoo answers.

Stop right there. Any fundie will tell you that D&D is Satanic. They'll also accuse you of cherry-picking the Bible, by the way.

D&D's Satan is Lawful Evil. Your argument is invalid.
