I agree. That is another way of saying that to the bigoted, the greater and more pernicious bigotry is adamant objection to their own bigotry itself.
Yup.
What happened to your Severus Snape avatar? Is he gone for good now? ;) He seemed a lot more distinguished than your new avatar, and certainly a lot more distinguished and heroic looking.
No precept or claim is more suspect or more likely to be false than one that can only be supported by invoking the claim of Divine authority for it--no matter who or what claims such authority.

I thought Kishkumen might still have some humility and common sense left in his progressive brain, but lately I don't believe so. This is especially true when he changed his image to feature Donald Trump, which makes me question whether he's too far gone to be helped.

I believe he has become just as lunny as Dr. CamnPP and Bishop Schmo! I concur that his avatar was among the greatest on the board, but his most recent one isn't visually appealing.

You follow Trump, a man with no humility or common sense. Your judgment is deeply compromised. Moreover you continue to be dishonest in your characterization of me. Your posts are mostly garbage.

Well, most people think Donald Trump is too far gone to be helped, so that’s not a surprising conclusion.

Once more, you find yourself as a YouTuber who hasn't succeeded, and it seems you struggle even with something as simple as holding a coffee cup upright while drinking, which suggests a lack of physical strength.

The distinction between conservatives, whether republican or democrat, lies in our understanding of why Trump decisively defeated the Democrat party in 2024. Meanwhile, progressives like yourself seem to remain perplexed by this outcome, and your new avatar serves as a clear indication of that misunderstanding regarding Trump's victory. Allow me to clarify this for you!

Your new avatar is essentially a promotion for Donald Trump! It doesn't matter if you're showcasing your new avatar for all to see, as it reflects your sentiments towards Trump, regardless of what they are. It's still a form of advertisement, and believe me, when it comes to advertising, there's truly no such thing as bad publicity for a figure like Donald Trump!

What I'm explaining to you is no different than the misguided progressives who spend thousands of dollars on a 30-foot tall Donald Trump balloon and then walk it around during a rally. Yes, that big balloon depicts Donald Trump as a baby in a diaper, and it is amusing to see, but in reality, it serves as an advertisement for Donald Trump that ultimately benefits him. The outcome is favorable for him! You're repeating the same action with your avatar, bird brain!!

Surely you understand that Trump would likely appreciate your avatar rather than feel any discontent, correct? He would see it as complimentary promotion! :lol: :lol: :lol:

According to Trump, he won because of ‘the groceries’.

He should probably get crackin’ on that. He seems to be heading in the wrong direction.

Yada, yada, yada . . .

I find myself to be a YouTube hobbyist who is having a great time. You find yourself to be a small mind with few ideas that you repeat endlessly. I prefer being me over you.

My avatar is a promotion of the Republican Party as loser Trump's bitch.

I'm unsure which moron you're talking about, although I agree with the sentiment.

If Trump thought that picture was complimentary, he would be the moron. I don't know anyone who wants to look like Jabba the Hut.
Religion is for people whose existential fear is greater than their common sense. It's also the favored cover for hypocrites.

The god idea is popular with desperate people.

Well, yes, precisely. If he has no attention, he feels like he is dying. Hound knows this, but for some reason he is not troubled by the knowledge that his god is a desperate moral weakling and failure.

You know, it's one thing to worship another human being. It's pathetic, but still, that's one thing. It's something completely different to worship someone so obviously flawed in every way. I can't imagine the loser attitude one must have to worship Trump. It's remarkable.
