Dude, I have to draw the line at Lemmy...let's not get foolish now...

Got carried away with Danes almightiness....sorry :(

Um, I know I'm probably going to regret this but it seems you seem to want to feed all the the Christians to the lions. Where is all that hatred based?

BIG DADDY

Prepared for the worst here. Go easy on me Dane, I have feelings you know.

No dude.

It's the fact that many self-proclaimed Christians in this forum act anything but.

They attack, name call and worse.

I've gone through it all, from being raised Catholic, going to CCD and Catholic school, later moving on and seriously researching other religions before finally realizing late in life that I'm a Deist.

The bottom line is hypocrisy. People can say and do whatever they want in their lives and can attack me and flip me shit at will. I don't care.

BUT, if you claim you're a Christian, yet go out of your way to insult me at every turn, I'd say you're a hypocrite and deserve to be called out. That behavior is VERY un-Christ-like, at least in my studies.

And furthermore, defending others for non-Christian beliefs doesn't make me Anti-Christian. It makes me tolerant of others, especially when I don't share any of the same beliefs, regardless of individual religions and faith.

We could spend a month on this subject but I'll just leave it at this, IMO most people respond according to what issues they have going on and where they are at in their journey more than their relgious affiliation. If your saying you have an issue with people using their religion as a weapon I would concur. If you see an area they need to work on as hypocracy I would regress and reconsider.

Dane.... WTF are you doing man? You've gone full-on bat shit crazy. It's as if you can only be entertained by instigating. Talk about a subject without going to extremes for once. Take a deep breath. Count to ten... whatever.

Dude, you're wrong. And I've been apologized to in this very thread.

I know you don't come around here very often these days, but there is some serious hate going on, especially in the DC (where this originated).

This is just another example of NFL-type refereeing:

The guy that strikes back after the initial blow is the guy penalized.

That is pretty much the story of my life here on CP when dealing with haters.

All this started because a guy posted a video of a 10 year old kid that kicked ass playing guitar.

That's what it comes down to.

Eh, well... I don't participate in that forum, and don't plan to.

No, it's not.

It comes down to the fact that people don't know what they're hearing. I tried to correct a few people because I DO know what's going on, and it, of course, turned into a Dane-Bashfest.

I'm sorry that people are ignorant but I just can't stand for it.

If this were an IT issue, the thread starter would be dogpiled into submission. But because it was about "music" and I chimed in, people act like assholes.

I apologized FOUR ****ING TIMES for people's inability to distinguish what was happening in the video.

What would have had me do?

You're in LA man, ain't you got an awesome yoga studio out there you can get into or some good enochian chanting you can embrace? :D

Bro, you and I see eye to eye on just about everything and you know I respect you.

Music is my passion. It's my life. It's what I live for and what I do every single day.

I was politely trying to help people to recognize that they weren't hearing what they were seeing in this video, before it turned into what it became.

And for the record, we just signed a lease to open another in the South Bay.

:D

Who cares? Just let it go, man. It's really not that important... that's all I'm saying. Unless the argument is what you enjoy... if so, by all means go for it.

This thread went from the guitar kid to religion. How does that happen? lol

Typical night on Chiefsplanet?

:D

Well, I suppose you've got me there. Heh.
