Dude if I were in fear for my life this would be a different conversation. You know what never mind. Have a good night kid
It almost sounds like you are in fear of your life. But that stalker of yours...you're a big boy. You can handle this.
Positive imagery, I can agree with. But here's what you are overlooking: The billboard is telling African-Americans a reminder that the very thing they worship and believe comes from the slave trade. And the message? Want to be free, then educate yourselves since there's more to life than surrounding yourself to a slave-driven faith. That's the overall concept of the billboard: "Be free from the chains of slavery."
Ads require some shock value to get a point across, right? Especially when dealing with those who are deeply religious and the information will go in one and out the other, no. There's no other way. At least one that would get their point across to make blacks think for a minute. Better yet, here's an idea...ask yourself this... What good has it done for black Americans today?
No need to get mad at the messenger, nor the message. Get at the very people who shove a crucifix dildo inside themselves to reassure that they have a purpose in their existence.
For all I know, there could have been some black atheists who helped with that billboard. And quite frankly, I would have done the same thing. Got a problem with that, then don't get mad at me for delivering a reality many of you choose to ignore.
No. Irrelevant and doesn't make sense to ask. And you're sorely mistaken (again). The purpose of that billboard is more of a wake up call. Too bad you can't see that.
Actually dumbass...they, being ultra conservative, religious maniacs would piss and moan over the billboard as well because an atheist organization is "attacking Christianity". You don't know your figures that well, huh?
BBW is a clown that has posted tranny porn on here. He still denies it lulz. And yeah his condescending tone is hilarious too. Dont let the fool from Covington, LA get to ya though. He is a bitch all the way and most likely has no life.
You're not making any damned sense you twisted fuck. How does "Thank god for slavery" equates to a lack in the belief in a god, which holds NO organized agenda. That's a damn insult beyond repair and for you to not get it, clearly shows just how addle-brained you really are. Secondly, getting overly sensitive because Christianity and religion as a whole has promoted suppression and control of people. How does a lack in a belief reinforces control? I'm waiting for an answer, dumbass. If you're THAT foolish to make those assertions on atheism, then you have no idea what you're talking about. Again, those people you've mentioned, they're more concerned with Christianity being attacked and in return black people who believe in it. Sure, you recognize the names, but you sure as hell don't know their thinking patterns. That's a no-brainer.
You idiot. They dont spend 8 hours a day at church. More like an hour and a half at most. The black community has waaaaaaaay bigger problems than fools attending church.
And here you're little drama queen ass like to rear your ugly head to start shit. This was over with between me and Andrae a long time ago. But a clown like you still act like a high school kid, starting nonsense once again.
An hour and a half wasted when you could something productive. Tell me, little boy...what good does it do for you in particular except reinforce alleviating yourself of any guilt and still keep being an asshole? And yes, there are bigger things to ponder, but for that to be accomplished, teh first thing is get the hell out of the churches and putting money into a collection plate to give to your priest so he can buy a new car.
BBW you are the fucking man! :smt038 Preach it(pun intended)my brother. I agree with everything you said, even though I thought TDK had some good points IMO. I REALLY couldn't of said any of this better myself. You really know your stuff. You, my friend, is a true intellectual. Personally I think what you said about blacks and religion is probably the main reason that there are not alot of blacks in science and other academics.
Thank you for that reminder! If there's greater interests in the sciences rather than pushing for a more theological thought process, then intellectually speaking (and to a lesser degree financially) we could see growth within black communities as a whole. I would rather have more Dr. Neil deGrasse Tysons around than another run in the mill pastor preaching sweet nothings and doing nothing except helping himself to the collection plate.
C'mon boo, you're better than that. I know you're passionate about what you believe, but don't resort to insults, please?
How can I when you're the one so fixated on the image and not the bigger message, dumbass? Unlike you, I don't inflate the picture. I rather look at the message. I know exactly what it implies. This whole thing is as silly as the whole Nivea controversy. Tell me, do you get offended with this picture? Someone like you, most likely will because you don't see the bigger picture.
Sort of hard to do when a correction's officer is trying to get his e-thuggery on after a long day cursing at some inmates.
