He was a troll too.

I never claimed to have perfect grammar, i just made mention of the major mistake. I've always had retardism when it comes to comma's anyway.


The point of the post wasn't to point out people's grammar, try rereading it.


I, now, have 1,137 posts. I'm not a troll. Nor, do I play World of Warcraft.

As you can tell, I'm not a very religious person.

I don't think any of us here have any problems with people and their beliefs, afterall, that is their own business. Just because one person believes one thing and another something else doesn't mean either of them is wrong.

Note he never said "Christianity is stupid", just that the less of the old stigma applied in the present the better.


He said "Christian community".

Thank you. I wasn't attacking 'people of faith', eusebioCBR.

When you deride the "Christian community" you are attacking, NAGPO.

Is it just me or when he said Christian Community, surely he meant...a community of Christian people, ie. Christian people. What is offensive about that?

I am a member of the design community because I'm a designer. I'm a member of the CreedFeed community because I am a member here and post here. There's nothing wrong with that choice of wording.

And I feel that he was just stating that, in his opinion, it would be better if Christian people weren't so associated with Creed because then there would be less focus on them being 'Christian' or not. Because he's tired of that tag on a band that are apparently not a Christian band. There was nothing derogative towards Christian people in that.

Personally, I'm a bit tired of all the labelling that we as people have some divine need to do in the first place.

In other words prejudice is no big deal. Are there any other groups that should be encouraged not to take "interest".

No prejudice is right...but I don't see any prejudice in his statement.

As I previously mentioned, and Nagpo can correct me if I'm wrong, but what he seems to mean is that Creed are being cornered as a Christian band, which apparently isn't true and he's tired of that.

Ironically this all came from the word 'community' which is more often than not a positive thing, and 'Christian community' is certainly not a derogative term, at least not in my eyes. As also previously mentioned, and ignored, I am a member of certain communities, we all are, whether religion, hobby or interest.

This has gone too far. He's already said he didn't mean anything by it.

As i said, the point of my post was not to insult anyone, that's just how i talk, the person i was talking to didn't take offense, so i dont' see why you should feel the need to make a snide remark about it.

And that doesnt change whether you have 1000 posts, 3000 posts, or 4. Nothing wrong with a little civility every now and again.

And that's the end of this part of the conversation as it's now been dragged off topic

Which is ironically what trolls do :)


I was completely civil and I told you that I agreed with you. Take a step back, and breathe. I merely told you that you shouldn't find it amusing when people have poor grammar. Everyone makes grammatical mistakes. That's all I meant.

No need to take everything personally whenever possible, and to do it after it's been pointed out by the person making the statement and others that it wasn't what they meant is just stubborn.

Why keep an argument when there wasn't one in the first place?

This is why i get frustrated over the christian argument, stubborn people who still say creed is a christian band when the band themselves say repeatedly they aren't.

What's the point in even trying to argue when even ending the argument isn't possible because people want to fight about nothing?



And just to play devil's advocate:

Let's say for the sake of argument he meant offense when he said "Christian Community".

Even in that case, what he is talking about is that he hates the fact that the christian community created that stigma about creed.

This means he is angry and hating the STIGMA not the CHRISTIAN FAITH OR ITS PEOPLE, it just so happened that the christian community was the one that applied the stigma. If it was jews and saying creed was a jewish band, it'd be the jewish community, if it was blacks or whites, it'd be those communities.

ITS NOT SPECIFIC TO ANTHING ABOUT CHRISTIANITY EXCEPT THAT THAT IS THE SOURCE OF THE STIGMA.

The STIGMA is what he is attacking, not the group of people



He has actually said this much but you flat out ignored it just for the sake of arguing.


I wanted to hear from NAGPO exactly what his problem is with Christianity. Instead I have to read pshycobable text from know it alls defending him. I am a Christian and I found his remark about the Christian community offensive and your arguments to defend him anoying.
I won't shut up because you say so.
