Luna Wrote:The Bible is the only book that has been force-fed to everyone on the planet as a means of control, coersion, and manipulation to control the masses. It's great for mismanaging a clueless moron's brain.
that sounds like something from some 15 yr olds livejournal
so because some people use/used it for this, its a reason to ignore it? it hasn't had any impact on life over the last thousands of years or anything
That wasn't her point at all, and I think that's pretty obvious.
What Luna said is true. A lot of people swallow whatever's offered to them and don't question it.
It's the oldest trick in manipulation's book... so to speak.
Read the rest of the tread.
yea, and that had NOTHING to do with anything mentioned. the point that was missed was galts in how influential it is/was
and how is just mentioning the bible so uber religious? we're not quoting from it or spreading its beliefs, galt mentioned its social implications and luna ranted about something else regarding it

Do you need it spelled out, too? Okay: Galt tried to make a point about my ignorance.
He was wrong in what he offered. He tried to correct what he thought was an error I made.
That was not an error, it was intentional wordplay. But instead of rubbing his stupid face in his stupid mixup,
I LET IT GO. I MADE A JOKE about it and tried to take it on the chin to avoid HUMILIATING him, as I have now done, for the sake of his being able to save face.
Why did I bother? Because I like Galt. And unlike him, I have no desire to spend all my time showing people up.
Now. Luna was making a valid point.
You just want to fight. You're taking Galt's side because, I am guessing, you have loyalty to Galt and hos honor. This is fine.
But you're not going to do it by winning an argument Galt has already lost.

You'll get laid, Goaty. :loveya:
Ah, this is the same old business. Ten pounds of turkey shit on a one-pound bag. I'm actually getting used to it.
And Galt, the girl joke was just dumb. You can do so much better, I know you can. Nice way to look even stupider than you already do, though, by not taking the actual argument back up.
Because you know you've already lost it. That's a point in your favor.
However, you look like a real pussy, LOSING TO A GIRL!
