Title: The Fool
Post by: madeara on April 01, 2012, 11:21:36 am
Psalm 14:1
New International Version (NIV)
Psalm 14
For the director of music. Of David.
1 The fool says in his heart,
“There is no God.”
They are corrupt, their deeds are vile;
there is no one who does good.

Psalm 14:1

Who is more the "fool"; one who posts off topic religious stuff in the "Payments" forum when they should know better by now, (as in someone who has been around long enough to post 805 times), or someone who blindly has faith in such religious superstitions? <--trick question since in this instance, the rhetorical answer is "both".

Posting off topic subjects in the Payments forum isn't illegal, it's just foolishly ignorant.

No doubt it was merely some sort of 'cosmic coincidence' that my young niece pulled the cord on her Speak 'n Spell right at the moment I clicked on this thread and it said, "and the sheep goes bah-bah-bah".  Yep, that's the ticket.

Or maybe this person just doesn't give a *bleep* on how/when/where/why in the area/topic concerning posting rules.Who's too busy in real life worries to worry about petty issues such as this time waster.  I agree, I 'm guilty for responding but think about the energy we've wasted daily on this petty stuff that maybe able to light & run cities for years!  ;D :thumbsup: :wave: :peace:

 ??? What is with the members who become so agitated about someone posting in the wrong thread or whatever.  Wow what a terrible thing lol.  And to the person who listed this psalm - thanks I enjoyed reading it.  And to the person who says religious superstition, well maybe I'll leave that one alone.   :peace: :heart: :peace: :heart: :wave:

A counter question; what does superstitious religious belief posted under the "Payments" forum have to do with payments?

It wasn't "positive", it was superstitious nonsense, (in that it contained no 'sense'/reason). <-- sardonic commentary

this comes up all the time and the bottom line is people just don't care enough to pay attention. they don't care enough about others using the forum to locvate legitimate information in the correct places. They don't care about Admins that may have to waste their time cleaning up the posts and they certainly don't care enough or have enough self esteem to present themselves in a better light. It is sad but that is just the way the world is today. It is too bad that so many don't pay attention because it does create a lot of wasted time both in others commenting on the lack of respect and in particular for newbies who are seeking answers and guidance as to how to sincerely learn more about the site an how it functions. Normally most sites like this don't even have an open off topic area, it is just a shame that even though it is at the top of the headers it gets overlooked on a pretty regular basis. It should not take more than 20 to 30 seconds to stop and think about what you have to say and see if it is in the correct thread. The thread appears above where we are writing our comments so there are basically two ways to verify that one is on the right track. There again, the lack of concern, respect and self esteem puts one in a poor light. And unfortunately the rest of us can fuss or not fuss it will never change. So we can choose to live with it, ignore it or keep complaining about it but it will always be with us.

Either that or Ron White's observation was dead-on, (he'd said, "you can't fix stupid").

If they've got the time to waste in wasting everyone else's time, I've can spare a moment to log their disregard for others.

I generally concur with your observations however, am unwilling to let such apathy by the ignorant pass without comment.
Depending upon the level of attention objections to to such apathetic posting draws for "clogging up" Admin's foums with such clutter, the thread may get moved to where a moderator judges it goes, (like d+d, where the offender may be 'debated & discussed' relentlessly), or the offender may be warned/banned by Admin for spamming across forums.

I say "Not in the Forums, period!" Personally, I would find it highly offensive if FC allowed this. This is NOT a biblical clearing house for Christian members only. It is a site [primarily] designed to make FC and the members of FC money, the Forums are a 'bonus', literally and figuratively. When saying 'daily devotional', I (and I'm sure almost 100% of others seeing it) immediately think Bible passages. Anyone care to predict what would happen if our members who are or who follow teachings of the Quran/Koran, Santería (voodooism), Borucas (believe in the devil and believe he protects nature/animals/surroundings) decided to post devotionals from their respective 'religions' which go against any and all beliefs in the Christian God? Fingers would be burning up keyboards in order to argue against the heresy and blasphemy those 'non-Christians' have every right to post.

If members want to put their little gems of [Xtian] wisdom on a website, they can go to any 1 of the thousands of religious communities out in cyberspace! This is still America, I still vote, I still do not believe in God, I still work and pay taxes to keep my freedom and every other citizen's freedom alive, and because of this, I still have a voice and a vote....and I will NOT surrender either of those so this site can cater to Christians. If this idea were to go through and gain approval, I want MY own subtopic in order to give a 'daily' health thought and/or tip, notifications of new drugs and treatments - anything pertaining to taking care of our bodies. Ridiculous? Yes. However, it's NOT as ridiculous as the thought of filling endless pages with tokens of scripture on an incentive based website! :(

Some people are "letter of the law"  and feel better about their self if they think they know more than someone else.  Then there are those who think their purpose in life is to "rain on someones' parade".

Truthfully, those people are the ones making a fool of their selves.  Don't take it personally.  We all do our best and we all make mistakes.  There is room for flexibility and patience for those who are learning to use the forum. 

Consider the fact that no one has the power to make us feel a certain way.  We choose how we feel so refuse to take it personally...even if you think someone else...wants you to take it personally.

I don't know if my post above is making me this person:"wish i knew how to copy someones comment then you would all see who i was talking about", but if I am that person, it is fine with me. I was NOT belittling anyone and do NOT feel/think I am "superior". I make my own share of mistakes also. However, I do think that someone like the OP, madeara, really ought to be able to post in the correct place in the Forums after being here as long as she has:
I have been a member for nine years in December.  Fusioncash is a terrific website.  I have also referred several friends to Fusioncash.

Now, I realize the Forums have not been here that long, but they have been here for the last ~5 years that madeara has, just under a different screenname than she started with. I apologize if my not being religious, believing in God anymore and making it clear I do NOT feel there should be a special place for biblical/scriptural quotes on FC is 'belittling' or 'superior', but I don't think FC needs to or should cater to all of you who are Christians.

Not only do I completely agree with your above points without reservation, the OP has already been spamming multiple forums and multiple threads, (and therefore doesn't need such spamming to be FC-sanctioned by having a separate forum because the OP and others have demonstrated that they'll spam any forum/thread with their religious beliefs).  Isn't that offensive enough?  Somehow, I find it doubtful that FC will comply with such a 'suggestion-listed-under-payments' when the "Off Topic" forum already exists.
 
When saying 'daily devotional', I (and I'm sure almost 100% of others seeing it) immediately think Bible passages. Anyone care to predict what would happen if our members who are or who follow teachings of the Quran/Koran, Santería (voodooism), Borucas (believe in the devil and believe he protects nature/animals/surroundings) decided to post devotionals from their respective 'religions' which go against any and all beliefs in the Christian God? Fingers would be burning up keyboards in order to argue against the heresy and blasphemy those 'non-Christians' have every right to post.

No doubt many of the xtians who'd wish to flood the forums with such off topic stuff would continue to complain when viewpoints which dissent with their religious beliefs are posted in opposition, (a hypocritical stance since no one has pushed for a reciprocal 'banning'/censorship of those religious posts ).

If members want to put their little gems of [Xtian] wisdom on a website, they can go to any 1 of the thousands of religious communities out in cyberspace! This is still America, I still vote, I still do not believe in God, I still work and pay taxes to keep my freedom and every other citizen's freedom alive, and because of this, I still have a voice and a vote....and I will NOT surrender either of those so this site can cater to Christians.

Well-said however, the probability that the xtians posting 'bible passages' & 'inspirational' propaganda wll continue doing so is very high.  Coincidentally, the probability of dissenting viewpoints being posted in opposition to such evangelising propaganda is extremely high.

Here's the dilemma in such an instance; in order to indicate that a subject has been posted in an unrelated forum, a post gets made in that same forum which indicates the contention.  It's a bit of a catch-22 situation which can easily be resolved in one of three ways; members can cease posting to the thread once it's been pointed out that the subject doesn't fit the forum, the thread can be reposted by anyone into a forum where it's topical, (or, off topic), the thread can be moved or locked by Admin.

any religion can put out a verse that says ppl who don't believe in that god are fools

but can you back it up or can you just copy or type a scripture?

i'm willing to debate to show that followers of god are the fools... i won't just say that i will back it up if you want

and as for the lady talking about it being petty well you are right you replying to that was petty... if it didnt matter then you didnt need to respond and you indulge in petty things just like you say falcon did

i don't care where you posted but i do care what you post... you are calling me a fool cus i don't believe in god... so why don't you back up your trash talk? because when i call christians fools im willing to explain why if they are willing to listen which they mostly won't


I think the only "fools" are people who believe their religion is the only way for everyone. If you don't believe the same as them, you will not make it to heaven. I think this is naive thinking. If you are a true christian, you do not judge (even though that is human nature!)--people will be judged by God, right? not by humans--we don't have the right or the power to judge others on their right to pass on to heaven.
I am not a religious person, and I don't believe in a "God", but I respect the fact that some people do. The only problem I have is when a religious person looks down on me and quotes scripture to make me feel stupid or not worthy of  them. I am not stupid, I am educated, and maybe that is why I have an opinion about religion that doesn't fit with the "true believers".
I don't like the fact that in most religions it is against the rules to ask questions. Just believe, don't question--right? If you begin to question that scares the church that other members will stray away, when all I really want is answers to my philosophical question.

What are you, 10 years old? You seemingly lack the ability to read and comprehend what you have read.
I did NOT say this site caters (not "scaters") to Christians. I said IF the site decided to allow a place dedicated to daily devotionals, that would be catering to them. It has NOT happened, so do not tell me, "then don't be a part of it its simple".

Back at ya and if you don't like what falcon9 and the rest of us who are not 'believers' have to say about your Bible and your christian views, take yourself out of the picture. Stop participating in the ridiculous threads started just to complain about falcon9 because you and your cronies are too ignorant to understand anything over a 3rd grade level of writing and debating.

Gee, I am "in a minority"?! Glad you pointed that out because I never noticed it - sarcasm intended and would have written "[sic]" to indicate that, but I know it would go over your head. Minorities have a voice and I will continue to use mine.  I do not need to take up a hobby such as sewing, which you suggested in another post. My sewing skills are quite accomplished. Rarely does a patient of mine have a very visible scar nor do they have keloids because I do not have to revise my surgeries multiple times 'to get it right'. Also, I do NOT have too much time on my hands, since I work more hours/week than you probably do in a month. Have a great weekend!

well im guessing if you don't like the topics you are not forced into participating in the forum.

Conversely, if someone disagrees with a topic they have the same option to express their dissent viewpoint as any other member of FC.  No one has "forced" religious adherents, (or anyone else), to participate in the forums or, post what content they choose to post.

You're in the minority being a non Christian and minorities (as seen in the past get stepped on) so either accept it or go to ONE OF THOSE 1000s OF ATHIEST FORUMS and complain about it there...

Your response contains the inherent assumption that FC is a xtian forum.  That assumption is false; FC forums are not some exclusive 'xtian forums', (as the forum catagories indicate). These forums are for members who come from all walks of life, even 'faith-blinded xtians'.

remember this everyone this is a "family" forum this isnt to debate whos better... so keep things to yourself on the subject and on this topic alone. if you want to correct someone, correct them with kindness... seriously you guys are losers who takes things personally out of context. ya i was one of the losers too but i relized its not worth a dime to keep at it. so i just left it at that. non belivers or belivers you guys wanna fight go outside and fight each other...

as i said im done with it but falcon if you keep pushing me the wrong way it aint happening.. your both in the wrong here whether you guys like it or not. GET OVER IT and ohh dont tell me to get over it i already did like 2 days ago..

... so keep things to yourself on the subject and on this topic alone.

Any member of FC has the option to post to a forum topic or, choose not to.  It is also anyone's choice to disregard your incoherent 'demands'.  I know I disregard them.
 
if you want to correct someone, correct them with kindness...

Do you mean 'correcting' others by referring to them as "losers", (as you go on to do below)?

seriously you guys are losers who takes things personally out of context.

A large proportion of your semi-coherent responses range from partially out of context to completely out of context, (and speaking for myself, I haven't taken any of your 'dastardly plots' personally or seriously).

ya i was one of the losers too but i relized its not worth a dime to keep at it. so i just left it at that.

Your statement is manifestly false since you _are_ keeping at it, (dime or not), and continue your diatribes, (which is not leaving it at that).  For some (un)reason, you appear to have the urge to troll while denying that you are engaging in it.

non belivers or belivers you guys wanna fight go outside and fight each other...

Here's a little gem from my nine year old niece; "who died and left you in charge?"  Isn't she clever?

as i said im done with it but ...

Obviously not, since you keep at it.  That means your claim to be "done with it" is not true; which makes you a teller of untruths.
 
falcon if you keep pushing me the wrong way it aint happening...

Replying to posts in an 'open' forum isn't "pushing", (that's your reaction to the replies you're not ignoring as you stated you would in three previous lies).  Forming plots in which you troll other FC members in forlorn attempts to silence them by 'running to mommy/daddy FC mods' is what isn't happening, troll.  Carry on though, far be for me to try inhibiting your freely-made decision to post or not to post, (unlike your failed attempts to inhibit others).

your both in the wrong here whether you guys like it or not.

"Wrong" about what?  The evidence and your own admission to your simplistic 'diabolical plot' are archived for review by the FC forum moderators.  They determine who and what to moderate, not you or I.

GET OVER IT and ohh dont tell me to get over it i already did like 2 days ago..

If you did "get over it ... 2 days ago", why are you not "over it" now?  Does 'getting over it' require several attempts or, reveal that you never do "get over" and continue on a trolling grudge-fest?  <--rhetorical questions ... obviously you're "over" nothing but your head.

What going on here

If you're actually interested, you'd have a lot of previous posts to catch up on.  If you take only one participant's viewpoint regarding it, you still wouldn't know "what going on here".  Maybe you really don't want know but, thought it was a thread about a tarot card?

No doubt you've provided adaquate evidence that you're "full of" something, (and it isn't wisdom or intelligence - imagine something smellier).

it keeps going like a broken record lol. so dont even bother to reply...

This "sammy" is a participant in keeping the 'conversation' going so, you may want to take her babblings with a large grain of salt, (one the size of a large asteroid may do it).
 
...unless if you tell the OP to put this in a right section..

As you can see from her remark, "sammy" enjoys telling other people what to do and becomes quite annoyed when the 'orders' of the 'princess' are not promptly obeyed.  Naturally, such 'royal commands' can be summarily disregarded as she's no 'princess', (much to her unrealized chagrin).

the staffs dont care about this...

The Admin staff/moderators do and have stepped in when trolls like "sammy" get out of hand, (this has occurred at least once before).

its all up to us if we wanna keep it going ? or move on.. personally im moving on...

While it is up the the participants engaging in such exchanges to keep them going or, cease participating, "sammy" has falsely claimed to be "moving on" several times recently.  If her word is her bond, her honesty has jumped bail.

On the contrary, the OP, ("madeara"), has indiscriminately spammed inapplicable forums with random evangelical posts, (to which she never responds should these draw replies or contempt). 

i dont think ...

Of that, there is ample evidence fortutiously provided mainly by "sammy" herself.

this is ignarance posting...

It may be however, some people can eventually learn to spell and not remain 'ignorant' of grammar, (illegal immigrant or not).

hes not new so he thought it would be funny to lighten up the mood with the title.. id gotta say this i give the top OP mad props...

The FC member "madeara" posts using a picture of a female and while this doesn't necessarily mean that the poster is female, your other assumptions do not follow either.  As mentioned, there are a large number of archived posts of the same spamming nature as the one you're approving of, (your approval of spam-posts is unsurprising).

This post should be locked already. And not posted in the payments section. Unless you're a newbie, I can understand about not posting in the right board. But being that's it an Elite member who started it, sorry but no excuse!  How irritating!
Also, I probably shouldn't be adding the problem, but I'm just posting to get to the 30 posts/month.  :)

"Help, I'm steppin' into the twilight zone;
The place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned;
My beacon's been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far?"
-- excerpted from Twilight Zone -- Golden Earring


I had no idea this was a Christian, family forum!  Excuse me, Focus on the Family!  I suppose it's also one where only conservative republicans post......

If the more 'militant' xtians had their way, it might turn into a theocratic forum where repugnant..., I mean republican, and democratic xtians could engage in unopposed evangelism.  Much to their chagrin, (and everyone else's benefit), it's not.  I did enjoy your sarcasm, however.

I concur.  None of this thread's content has anything whatsoever to do with "payments".  Were Admin to move it to the off topic forum or lock it, they'd be justified in doing so.

Also, I probably shouldn't be adding the problem, but I'm just posting to get to the 30 posts/month.  :)

Thats an idea... a daily devotional section.

Not in the Payments forum, however - unless there's some inherently untenable suggestion that these be paid for.

I say "Not in the Forums, period!" Personally, I would find it highly offensive if FC allowed this. This is NOT a biblical clearing house for Christian members only. It is a site [primarily] designed to make FC and the members of FC money, the Forums are a 'bonus', literally and figuratively. When saying 'daily devotional', I (and I'm sure almost 100% of others seeing it) immediately think Bible passages. Anyone care to predict what would happen if our members who are or who follow teachings of the Quran/Koran, Santería (voodooism), Borucas (believe in the devil and believe he protects nature/animals/surroundings) decided to post devotionals from their respective 'religions' which go against any and all beliefs in the Christian God? Fingers would be burning up keyboards in order to argue against the heresy and blasphemy those 'non-Christians' have every right to post.

If members want to put their little gems of [Xtian] wisdom on a website, they can go to any 1 of the thousands of religious communities out in cyberspace! This is still America, I still vote, I still do not believe in God, I still work and pay taxes to keep my freedom and every other citizen's freedom alive, and because of this, I still have a voice and a vote....and I will NOT surrender either of those so this site can cater to Christians. If this idea were to go through and gain approval, I want MY own subtopic in order to give a 'daily' health thought and/or tip, notifications of new drugs and treatments - anything pertaining to taking care of our bodies. Ridiculous? Yes. However, it's NOT as ridiculous as the thought of filling endless pages with tokens of scripture on an incentive based website! :(

well im guessing if you don't like the topics you are not forced into participating in the forum. You're in the minority being a non Christian and minorities (as seen in the past get stepped on) so either accept it or go to ONE OF THOSE 1000s OF ATHIEST FORUMS and complain about it there... If you don't like the way this site "scaters to Christians"? then don't be a part of it its simple

What are you, 10 years old? You seemingly lack the ability to read and comprehend what you have read.
I did NOT say this site caters (not "scaters") to Christians. I said IF the site decided to allow a place dedicated to daily devotionals, that would be catering to them. It has NOT happened, so do not tell me, "then don't be a part of it its simple".

Back at ya and if you don't like what falcon9 and the rest of us who are not 'believers' have to say about your Bible and your christian views, take yourself out of the picture. Stop participating in the ridiculous threads started just to complain about falcon9 because you and your cronies are too ignorant to understand anything over a 3rd grade level of writing and debating.

Gee, I am "in a minority"?! Glad you pointed that out because I never noticed it - sarcasm intended and would have written "[sic]" to indicate that, but I know it would go over your head. Minorities have a voice and I will continue to use mine.  I do not need to take up a hobby such as sewing, which you suggested in another post. My sewing skills are quite accomplished. Rarely does a patient of mine have a very visible scar nor do they have keloids because I do not have to revise my surgeries multiple times 'to get it right'. Also, I do NOT have too much time on my hands, since I work more hours/week than you probably do in a month. Have a great weekend!

My comment was also sarcastic as for the quotations around them. I merely said if you didn't like the topics about Christianity, payments or topics bein in the wrong place as you comment on (and also added to the problem by posting on this subject) then you have the option to not participate in the forum. I'm not going to get into an argument about whether you believe in God or not me and falcon have already had that discussion and it gets old ( he might not like me but I believes from my points and argumental knowledge about other topics he knows I'm not stupid? Not sure tho?) as for you working more hours than me... That may be true but I work a full schedule selling art have my own website and am getting a business off the ground (hence the reason I do this) but I must say if you work more hours in a week than I do in a month... You either need to go back to school (if you ever did) and get a different degree (if you already have one which you very well may) or ask them for a pay raise. If you're working 160 hrs a week and still having to work on FC for pennies then... Well I really don't know what to say?? I'd quit and pick up cans you could make just as much doing that... And thanks you have a great day [sic] I learned that at Mississippi state university ;)

Coincidentally, everyone posting in this thread, on this subject also has the same option mentioned, (that includes you and I).  Another option is to post about not posting in this thread, (which would be a 'meta-comment').

I'm not going to get into an argument about whether you believe in God or not me and falcon have already had that discussion and it gets old ( he might not like me but I believes from my points and argumental knowledge about other topics he knows I'm not stupid? Not sure tho?) ...

The argument was already "old" before we were born however, the ensuing discussions have revealed that, in over 2,000 years the xtian adherents/proponents of such beliefs have not produced any solid evidence which supports them.  For probably just as long, those who disbelive such religious claims have challenged them only to get circular 'arguments' or 'chicket chirping' in response.  As for whether or not you're "stupid"; there is insufficient evidence extant to accurately determine that and at most, (based solely upon FC forum posts), you'd be ignorant regarding some matters, (and manifestly unable to use a process of accurately reasoning in other matters, nor resist trolling).

And as far as providing evidence as I've told you before you coincidently forget... Christianity is based on faith therefore weirder stand and never have claimed to be able to provide proof God is real... On the other hand scientific matters are based purely on facts of it can't be proved it is not true even of every finger points to it being true... So far with all technology we have as in touching a screen to make a call or pressing a button to send a message a million miles away no atom has ever been created from scratch... Hence the question that you cannot prove how the world was created... You still can't and never will be able to provide that info yet you conviently forget about that when you point your fingers at the Believers...

I've known for some time before you mentioned any non-coincidences that xtianity is based speciously upon blind-faith, ("faith" being that for which there is no extant supporting evidence).

... and never have claimed to be able to provide proof God is real...

As previous remarks, (not just mine), have indicated; such claims as 'believing' in something for which there is no extant evidence is an indication of blind-faith.  If the claimaint is maintaining a belief in that which has no evidence of being "real"/existing, then such a belief stems solely, (oun implied), from blind-faith alone.
 
On the other hand scientific matters are based purely on facts of it can't be proved it is not true even of every finger points to it being true...

The burden of proof rests with supporting facts claimed in evidence, not with attempting to 'prove' that something isn't true.  That's not logic; it's irrationality. Have you now decided to present conclusive evidence of your inability to reason accurately?   

... no atom has ever been created from scratch...

That depends upon what you mean by "from scratch" in this context.  Cooks prepare meals "from scratch" yet none of them created the atoms from which the scratch ingredients are assembled.  Does this mean that subatomic colliders cannot "create atoms from scratch" too?

You still can't and never will be able to provide that info yet you conviently forget about that when you point your fingers at the Believers...

The only "finger" pointed at religious believers/adherents is the one repeatedly requesting that they provide evidence to support their religious contentions, (which they've first posted and subsequently were contended).  Given that no such evidence has been produced in the 2,000-some-odd years since religious adherents have been contending such unsupported beliefs, it may be that another "finger" gets raised as well.
