Oh, and in case someone goes after me for "avoiding this one", I'll hit it now:
Catholics vs. Protestants. The Catholics started it.![]()
Tell that to Thomas More. The Catholics certainly did not start it in the UK.

Re: Ways to get back at someone...
Religion is possibly the most divisive subject in the world. Case in point:
You are now arguing over a bumper sticker.
You are now arguing over a HYPOTHETICAL bumper sticker.
You have gone into great religious debates and derailed this thread over a hypothetical bumper sticker.
---BTW - this also proves my point about how effective that particular bumper sticker would be.

Re: Ways to get back at someone...
Point 1. Catholic = Christian, especially pre-reformation
I've covered this in the past. Any religion that holds some deity above Jesus is not Christian. "Marion" is more like it. Why do you think there WAS a reformation? Luther left Catholicism and exposed the higher ups because they were abusing God's Word; the practical worship of Mary is an example of this. The Catholics went berserk on the newly formed Protestant Christians, not the other way around.
2. Ask U.K. Catholics (especially the Irish) if Catholics were responsible for all the post-reformation violence. Oh, and ask the Germans, the French...
2a. Cromwell
Breaking away from a body of people and having them go ballastic over it isn't exactly what I'd call "responsibility". Would you rather them continue to follow like sheep, or go against the grain, exercising their noodle for whatever reason they feel like?
3. Witch hunts in the American colonies were Protestant Christian-led
...by people using the "witch" designation to kill the lower class or those who promoted alternate lifestyles. This was not a matter of religious/spiritual discrepency--- that was politics with people slapping on the "in God's name" label in order to justify their actions. People of authority who, I guarantee you, won't be in the Great Beyond.
4. Klan persecution of Catholics (because the Klan were "true Christians")
You got me. With the things that these kooks do, "in God's name", should they even be taken seriously? Look at their practices... why bother to be called Christian if you're not going to be "Christ-like"? Jesus said to love every man, something they obviously don't do. Therefore... not Christian, just think they are. We're back at square one on this, now.
5. Paul Hill is a Presbyterian
6. He and Michael Griffin didn't seem to be "just slapping God's name" on anything any more than any other Christian, good or evil
Look, this will quickly downspiral into an abortion debate, but I'm not going to justify either man's words or actions because i wouldn't do the same thing, but it's their fuzzy logic that dictates that:
"Man is killing fetuses. Fetuses are children! Man is child-killer! Man is murder! Must destroy murderer to save children! Oog-oog-oog! {beats chest}"
That's all them. Looking at a few of the websites made by these guys or maintained by their supporters, it's obvious they've taken verses out of the Bible and just slapped them in there, because there's nothing in the Bible specifically against abortion. It's up to the individual on what they think.

Re: Ways to get back at someone...
There's just no arguing with you. You're wrong and you won't admit it. Henry VIII had Thomas More killed, along with other high-ranking clergy in order to solidify his power. You dismiss anyone who does wrong as "not Christian." I suppose your definition of "Christian" is "anyone who calls himself a Christian and doesn't do anything I don't like." Yea, the Catholic Church is evil and corrupt because they abuse power, but Protestants who abuse power and religion aren't actually Christian. Nice reasoning.
Your ignorance of the Catholic Church is appalling. I can't believe that anyone who can operate a computer is ignorant enough to still think that Catholics worship Mary. Get some history books that weren't published by Jack Chick, okay?

I was raised Catholic. I know what I, my family and friends used to do, m'kay?
I find your Jack Chick reference hilarious, though. Leave the old man alone.

Nope, sure isn't. I'll raise a white flag if you will. For the sake of the board.

Alright let's just clear this whole thing up: make the bumper sticker say "Buddha sucks..." that won't offend anyone.
Whew, glad we got that over with. Or how about just "Your god sucks..." Now it's all-inclusive.
EDIT: Hmmm, I better take that back. I really don't want to get dragged into this mess.

Re: Ways to get back at someone...
Yes, but you can't just freeze the shaving cream, you have to dip it into liquid nitrogen with metal tongs before peeling the metal off and tossing them in.
Very high-maintenance revenge. Have you ever tried to acquire liquid nitrogen? Downright impossible for me.
Really, you have to use liquid Nitrogen?
Wow, Next time i go to the store I'll pick up a bottle of shaving cream and freeze it and see how it works.

Ya, but it doesn't show that you've edited your post unless someone has posted after you.
The board has been fairly inconsistent with that. Sometimes it'll show something's been edited, sometimes it won't.
Thats because you can choose wether or not it shows on your posts.
I think.

I've heard about that, seems a bit more technically demanding and complex than most pranks. And I almost doubt it's possible without liquid nitrogen, which is hard to find.

I like the classic car revenge and have used it: peeled, boiled egg in car tail pipe. Boom!

Re: Ways to get back at someone...
Car damage is ever popular but it's illegal and expensive to repair so, if I was getting revenge, I'd stay away from it.

Re: Ways to get back at someone...
Well, driving home just now I saw a one of the 2QR2BESTR8 bumper stickers, and I got to thinking, wouldn't it be hilarious (to me) if I put a custom bumper sticker on the back of my ex's car? something along the lines of,
I'm so gay, even my penis is bent!
I really think that would help me release alot of anger.
Oh, and you can post other ways, if you feel like steeling my glory.I honestly don't get the revenge factor here, or why exactly you would be pissed off by the first bumper sticker...
But, if I wanted to get back at someone, I think a good way would be to...dump paint on their car?I wasn't pissed of by the first one, it gave me the idea for the second one.
Where is theconfuzed1, he would know how to make this thread fun. You guys are all to serious.Way to put me on the spot. I have nothing.
![]()
What did he do to you that you feel like you need revenge?
Cheated on me, lied to me, lied to me in order to get me to fight with a friend that he isn't out to so that contact would stop, spread rumors about me, and their's a debate whether or not the smurf stole my virginity. ...Wow, that's one hell of a pun. Basically if you think oral sex has anything to do with virgnity.

Nope. Oral means that you are still a technical virgin.
Of course, you're unclean and will be escorted to the nearest entrance of hell by the next available demon, but you're still technically a virgin.
