What bothers you most about these posts?

Pushing religion on people is never a good idea! Religion is what tearing this society apart! How about live and let live and mind your own business, don't try and prove to me why your god is better! Okay, i'm done, see ya next month. LOL

 

Maybe it has something to do with you using this website as a vessel to repeatedly push Christianity on folks who don't necessarily agree with it.

Personally, I don't feel the necessity to practice a specific religion to be a good person. My conscience does a good job keeping me in check, for the most part. To each, his own................but religions aren't very accepting of that concept, in turn becoming a vessel of dictation and control. Perhaps some people don't welcome dictation and control with open arms when it facilitates oppression.

 

how about option "E"...your horrible pun of a screen-name, pushing religion on a surf forum (or any forum, for that matter). religion is a private, personal matter. even if i shared the same beliefs as you, i'd find what you do offensive.

put the shoe on the other foot...how would you feel if a guy started posting on here asking for support for a muslim surf camp or a jewish one? or any other doctrine of faith?

 

Well, I guess in one aspect, we all have brought God to surfing. I mean, we all have been in the impact zone and just before that set wave broke on our heads, thought, "Oh god". LMAO!

 

I would like to nominate sailquik's post above for the 2014 Swellies Post of the Year. It says everything that needs to be said without the bashing and name calling that surrounds this topic.

 

Wayne - I used to live across the street from Will Graham. The Will Graham, grandson of Billy Graham, heir apparent to the Graham ministries, maybe you've heard of him? He was a great neighbor and friend, and even though he knew I wasn't the most religious fellow out there not once did he ever try to convert me, preach to me, or otherwise badger me into accepting Jesus and going to Church. He was just a great neighbor and a friend. I have another neighbor who's a devout Christian, nicest guy in the world, give you the shirt off his back. He's never tried to convert me either. He walks the neighborhood every morning at 6am and always stops by our house and says a silent prayer. I appreciate that. He doesn't try to push his religion down my throat but still cares enough to say a prayer for us in his personal, silent way.

You know what the difference between them and you is? They try to lead people into Christianity by example. You are trying to push, drag, badger, threaten, and mislead people into accepting Jesus. They demonstrate by their actions they are good people and if anyone is willing, they will gladly welcome them as Christians. But they don't try to force it down everyone's throats by any method they can. Your end results do not justify your actions. And not once have I ever felt like either Will or my other neighbor looked down on me or judged me b\c I don't believe what they do. I've seen plenty of stuff from you that's makes it pretty clear that you judge and look down on others that don't share your beliefs.

If you truly are a Christian you need to rethink the what how and why of what you are doing. I don't find your actions very Christian at all.

Signed, a heathen...

 

well said tlk

 

One of the most insulting assumptions you make Wayne, is that if there is a kind loving honest person who is giving and compassionate, but this person lives in an isolated village, and has never heard the Gospel, that person is damned to hell for eternity. Fu9k that **** brah!

And quit preaching on a surf site. God bless you too, now shuffle off.

 

Let's see I told a guy I was going to drink and physically violate his mother... Good start to 2014?

 

Thanks MIS. Love the pic. It's true of course, I've talked with the man upstairs and he loves Slayer. \m/

 

Posting something religious on a site that isn't aiming towards religion is usually a bad idea.

 

I got nothing against religious people,but stop forcing your religion on us.wheres the surfers for islam guy?some people need something to believe in I guess.u don't need to be religious to be a good person.most of the 10 commandments are bullshyt,like 3 of them are the exact same thing.dont steal/don't coveth thy neighbors wife/don't idol warship,etc..there could be a god,but god didn't create or write the bible.the bible is all bullshyt.everyone interprets it their own way.where in the bible does it speak against gays?adam and eve is supposed to mean be straight or burn in hell?why would a loving god create huge floods to kill everyone but save one believer?why did god tell cain to murder abel?should we all start killing our relatives and children?because the bible says so.another thing I love about religious fools and the bible are how cheeses spoke against rich people,and the people running the churches all blinged out with gold,tailored suits,crocadile loafers,shiny caddillac.the people preaching the shyt don't even understand the bible.

if religion is so necessary for the future of America,which its not,why are we so anti muslim?muslim countries like everywhere in the middleast except Israel all have religious laws and they blow each other up and stuff.thats why they are so far behind because they take their religion too serious.and arabs and jews,technically the same thing,are they not?its like a nyorker telling a jerseyer hey ef u,your different,im going to blow u up.its all the same land,israel is the only country there that's not muslim or banging sheep,maybe they do idk.I think jews are the most racist people that exist.they get away with so much stuff because we are their big brother.i respect the jews tho,they are some bad ass people.the Israel mossad,which is israels cia special forces special police thingy,those guys can die in their training.they are the best,compared to navy seals,green berets,etc.all jews are different.its only 1 specific class I dislike.the guys with the jew rolls and top hats are cool,well not really.its mostly the American born jews who act like a-holes.the real Israelis are tough people and are more known for bombing their neighbors than stealing their change.

 

Less Vulgarity? How bout you suck my balls you bible thumping kook

 

Hey, Creepy Williams, what happens in the trailer park stays in the trailer park. Don't be bringing your weak-arse inbreeding ya-ya onto the SI Forum.

 

Bro, bro, you're even more behind the times than I thought. Havnt you ever heard the song "loser" by beck? We burned down the trailer park 20 years ago my man

 

"Bro....bro...?" You're never going to get anywhere with your HOTY14 award with simpering crap like that, Creepy.

 

You brahs are all smitten with the HOTY GRAIL in the year of our Lord, 2014!!! Anyone want action on odds on winner? How come gambling isn't ever a topic or pastime here? Aren't all vices equally righteous? #thoughts

 

You aren't very intelligent, are you? People post that they don't want preached to over and over again, then you keep on preaching. I don't get it.
