Augustine's May 2011 Screwballs Political Derail

[Augustine2004]

Screwball to anyone who thinks killing a criminal without showing any evidence of what happened is great. Also that it proves America great.

An individual may be great. But am I great because some group of which I am not a member did something like that?

lolwut

Not sure what that is in response to specifically. Manwe is no Christian if he is not praying for OBL's soul, anyway. Screwball to the USFG for doing the mission in such a way that leaves plenty of room for doubt OBL was killed the way the USFG claimed. Possibly OBL died of kidney failure December 2001 and is buried in an unmarked grave somewhere near the Afghani-Pakistan border. Manwe is a lolwut if he thinks he can prove it is not true. C'mon, try to disprove that.

These kinds of statements bother me -- when we accuse somebody of not being a Christian because they don't do what we think they should do, it really goes against the "grace through faith" foundation of Salvation. Yeah, you were probably just being ornery, but I see us do this too much.

I think several al-Qaeda sympathetic/sister groups denouncing the killing of Obama is illustrative of the fact that THEY believe he was killed. The (typical) Muslim outrage in the streets, and threats of retaliation, seem to suggest it is "known" in the radical Islamic community that OBL was killed.

There's no arguing with conspiracy theories. This is why I don't respond to your threads any more.

That's mainly the same reason I stopped responding to him too, that I got rather tired of the consistent accusations, strawman arguments, and how it seemed to be my job to explain everything the government has done.

Conspiracy theories already?

Oh come on..........!!!!!!!!!!

OBL is actually fine and dandy... he's hiding out in an igloo on an iceberg off the coast of Antarctica. He converted to Rastafarian Sikhism and spends his days hittin' da hooka and harassing penguins after he gets high.

Damn. We'll never get him now. He's protected by all the Antartican Muslims. So strong in number and such an advanced civilisation.

Obviously still unrepentant despite his disingenuous apology from the time he accused lilpixieofterror of not being a Christian for being in the military, Augustine once again opens up his pie hole only to stuff both feet into it. Listen, you dolt - don't you ever accuse me of not being a believer again without hard proof. I take it very seriously and I don't need a conspiracy theory nutjob with a passive aggressive complex on the Internet to lecture me. And for your information, I have prayed for Bin Laden, not that facts were every that important to you to begin with if it gets in the way of a good slander. Par for the course.

And don't forget 9/11 was an inside job!

Whatever, little man. You better hide from the government before the Men in Black take away your tinfoil hat.

You have issues, Augustine, and to make it worse - you're blissfully ignorant of it. Get help.

[Augustine2004]

What, am I the only one to doubt the USFG story about killing OBL? The only one to give some credence to the fact--if that's true--Osama had severe renal problems in late 2001? Could he have survived for ten more years, hiding from the USFG?

Manwe, I'm sorry about saying you didn't pray for OBL. You were so nasty to me, and accusing me of being a conspiracy nut.

Why the hell are you so trusting of a government that ran up debts not even your grandchildren or great grandchildren have any hope of paying in full? Would you trust a government that keeps on running up the tab even though it makes default all but inevitable? Why not think of the government as one gigantic conspiracy against the people. I am angry with your sheep-like acceptance of things and ready accusation of being a conspiracy nut.

I haven't responsed to other posts here yet. More coming.

No I was not being ornery. Why didn't you jump on Manwe for being so nasty to me?

I don't understand 'grace through faith,' I thought grace was the Lord's in this context?

Oh, my, are libertarians the only ones to be skeptical of the USFG account?

[Augustine2004]

You maybe found out that you could not answer my challenge to show that the USFG is doing more good than bad and quit my thread. Cheap shot, I suspect, to cover that up.

[Cow Poke]

Because that's his nature?

I don't understand 'grace through faith,' I thought grace was the Lord's in this context?

Ah, maybe that's the problem!

Scripture Verse:

(Eph 2:8-9 KJV) For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: {9} Not of works, lest any man should boast.

That's mainly the same reason I stopped responding to him too, that I got rather tired of the consistent accusations, strawman arguments, and how it seemed to be my job to explain everything the government has done.

Let me understand.
1. First, above all, I was spewing conspiracy theories. Like aliens invaded Earth and took over the USFG.
2. I was making all sorts of accusations against you, like you were a member of several death squads, including the New Baghdad horror. Moreover, you're now a guard over Bradley Manning.
3. You are a government spokeswoman,trying to spin everything into a story of how the USFG is valiantly trying to do more good than bad.

Phooey!

I do believe in conspiracies, I admit, up to a point. I do believe the USFG is being run by people who are short-term, greedy, and indifferent to suffering and poverty. I've been trying to convince you, but you keep thinking, 'conspiracy nut! conspiracy nut!' Are not USFG government people, Lilpixie excepted, like the Roman empire people?

Look, what can I do to convince you that the USFG is doing much more bad than good?

No, it's Lilpixie's job to come to see that the USFG is doing more bad than good. Then try to do something about that.

The first step is to try to work out the case for the USFG's doing more good than bad, i.e. is the world really a better place because of the USFG? Where the HELL is the case? One Bad Pig's mind seems to whack out on that question every time.
