I will still vote

Post #168,492 by orion 8/10/04 4:53:29 PM Reply	I will still vote your babbling has not convinced me of anything other than you too are a fool. I can see that you still do not know how this country works, nor do you understand the events that happened and the results that took place. Yet I cannot tell you to not vote, because you have a right to vote wether if I agree with your views or not. That is a true difference between me and you, I support the right to vote, while you want to take away that right and other rights from people you do not agree with. I find that fact to reflect very poor on your character, and the character of others that support that view. It goes against everything that the United States stands for, and thus I find you a AntiPatriot or Hatriot. I will vote, just to spite you, because you told me not to. Yet I refuse to tell you how I will vote or who I will vote for, because I feel that information is meant to be secret. *"When a true genius appears in the world you may know him by this sign: that all the dunces are in confederacy against him." - Jonathan Swift* [link\|http://www.xormad.com:4096/district268\|I am from District 268].

Post #168,542 by orion 8/10/04 11:30:15 PM Reply	I don't listen to Rush and you own me an apology. Rush must have copied it from this guy: [link\|http://christdot.org/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=3714\|http://christdot.org...=article&sid=3714] "Former Muslim, turned born-again Christian, Dr. Ergun Caner was born in Stockholm, Sweden and raised as the son of an Islamic leader. In 1982, he converted to the Christian faith. As a result, his father disowned him. But that same day, both of his brothers accepted Christ. Dr. Caner has authored eight books on Islam, and is currently a Professor of Theology and Church History at Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia. Recently he spoke to Lee Webb on The 700 Club to discuss his latest book, Michael Moore, and the growing phenomenon he calls 'Hatriotism.'" Also this link: [link\|http://www.cbn.com/CBNNews/News/0407012a.asp\|http://www.cbn.com/C...News/0407012a.asp] Perhaps, if you have an open mind, you will read and find out about another point of view. I look at as many points of view as I can. One day, maybe you and others, will learn that hate is not a good thing to have.

Post #168,729 by orion 8/11/04 4:25:57 PM Reply	Only if you believe in it and I do not think that you do. You haven't shown me any evidence that you do. I speak out of love, not hate, but I won't hesitate to defend myself or my views or my beliefs, and I can only turn the other cheek so much before I attack back, yet the attack is out of love for a dicipline, and not hate. Yet I do believe that even people who hate me, or call me wrong, or an idiot, or try to knock down anything I have to say, still have the rights and freedoms that they should have. That is the difference between me and some others, I am often told by those here that I should not vote, as I have no right to vote. All I see are some would-be tinpot dictators who speak out of hate, and want to take away my rights because my opinions and views differ from their. I see no difference between them and Adolf Hitler, Osama Bin Laden, the KKK, and other hate groups that want to take away people's rights who have different views or opinions than theirs. I feel that taking away of rights and freedoms goes against civilized society, and goes back to Tyranny. *"When a true genius appears in the world you may know him by this sign: that all the dunces are in confederacy against him." - Jonathan Swift* [link\|http://www.xormad.com:4096/district268\|I am from District 268].

I'm not the one jumping up and down yelling the WASP equivalent of "Jihad" at the top of his lungs in this thread, while subserviently whining his Christian proselytism in others. Besides spouting gibberish here, you're spouting hypocricy. Which is yet another* sin.

You call it loud But the human crowd Doesn't mean shit to a tree. —from Jefferson Airplane's exhilarating (if perhaps not artistically first-rate and, in the edition I have, at any rate, atrociously engineered CD) 1969 album Volunteers. (For what it's worth I count After Bathing at Baxters their masterpiece: the best and most authentic acid album of all times. Er, I rely on the testimony of my cousin Ernie, of course, in asserting this.) I must say, though, that the anarchistic smash-the-state sentiments running through the work were a lot more exhilarating when I heard them ringing from the left in my late teens than they were a quarter of a century later coming from the Montana Militia and their various fellow travelers. cordially, Oh, and Norm—now that we've seen you in your insult-and-invective mode I exhort you, as a friend, not to quit your day job in the unlikely event you ever secure one. Your particular gifts, assuming these exist, do not include the ability to compose and convey devastating ripostes. [edit: typo] Die Welt ist alles, was der Fall ist.
