I'm happy for you and anyone else to think I'm a liar, dishonest, a jerk, or an immoral human being. It only makes me smile inside. If there is a God and Jesus, then I'm all the happier for doing Lucifer's work. I've lied before in my life and I'll lie again. Satan loves lying, and so do I.


If you love and make a lie, you'll be happy where you're going.

Scratch will tell you you have crabs, when in fact you have terminal cancer.

If you lie down with dogs.....expect to get....Scratchy.

Well, I think you're a jerk at times, but then I think I'm a jerk at times too. Sometimes I even think it makes life more exciting that way.

I've lied before in my life and I'll lie again. Satan loves lying, and so do I.

I'm beginning to think you're lying about that too what with you loving to lie an all . . .

Josh, you have an illness.

Get some help, if not for your sake, do it for your wife and child.
I think it would be morally right to lie about your religion to edit the article favorably.

Josh,

There is no name removal here at MD. Theres no bannings either.

There is however open discussion, a dash of venom, and a healthy sprinkling of locker room mocking. In that mix, there are actually some really good conversations and new insights on old subjects.

If you could just add your two cents in on an actual conversation without trying to make a martyr of yourself in the process, you may actually enjoy it here. Just pretend your around friends who wont let you put on any airs, and will shred you if you say something foolish. The atmosphere here is more like real life than you realize.

So do you think that comments like the one above yours is mature and nessesary?

Josh... Gaz is as TBM as they come. In other words, he's on your side.

Josh,

If the comment is blatantly offensive, ignore it.

If its some hostile comment on an issue, address the base of the comment and the issue, not the comment itself.

Its like learning to surf. Learn how to ride the waves, which waves to avoid. Some of the waters here are choppy, but can be enjoyable.

I still think that is a question the entire board wants to ignore. It is so busy pointing at me, very few seem to want to step up and admit people are crossing some very bad lines.

So when you come to this board, and throw up a couple of meandering and generally badly thought out posts, you haven't taken the first step yet towards being "discredited." First, you have to take someone in, win someone's respect. Get a following. But as you yourself point out, niether critics nor apologists respect your opinions. And, sorry bro, but it's for pretty good reasons. If you're as bright as you claim, you really, really need to increase your efforts. Once you get a single person in cyberworld thinking you've made some good points, then you can start worrying about character assassinations and plots to malign your significant reputation.


Are you one of Scratch's "informants"? If so, why are you talking about "credibility"?


Gad is not one of my informants. I will never tell you who my informants are, and you will never know. You will have to go on into infinity, gnawing at your knuckle, kicking against the pricks over this.

Or, maybe I'm lying? You know, since Ol' Scratch lies all the time?
