When my and my brothers were younger, my dad would tell us not to pretend to shoot each other because a real bullet might come out of what we were using...

I mean, did you guys even try?
The OP said: "none of you atheists knocking jesus".

Im not an Atheist, I clearly said so. I said that I found Atheism to be one of the wierder things I've believed in but have since then changed...
The OP was talking about flame wars in general. As in, don't say anything that could lead to a flame war. They just used atheists bashing Jesus as an example.

So what did you do? You made a post about religion. It doesn't matter if you said not believing in god (yes I am capable of reading what you said) rather than believing in god. You still made a post that could lead to a flamewar.

I convinced my vegan roommate that there was lard in frozen coke. She declared then and there in all seriousness that she'd never drink frozen coke again.

OT: When I was six, my brother told me that the gurgling sound the water made when the bath drained was a monstrous sewer python trying to force it's way up the pipe.

Is that my problem? Would you rather have me lie instead?

I've clearly motivated why I said what I said, it's not like there's much point in starting a flamewar over it now is it? Im not likely to change my standpoint in the matter, regardless of how many atheists or christians decide to flame me for it.

They probably think my standpoint is just as wierd as I think theirs is, but it's not like there's any reason to ***** and bicker about it.

Because regardless of what God thinks or what Chemical Chance thinks (or whatever the hell atheists scream out when they come during sex), this forum is still intended for people entitled to their own opinions.

So im not the one starting a flamewar here, the person who decide's to try and pick a verbal fight over my opinions will...

I still belive this:

God likes to do the opposite of what you want, BUT is extremley subseptible to bluffing.

I.E. I hand in homework when I was 8, thinking it was good, but in my head thinking "Oh no, he'll hate it", sure enough, teacher loves it. If I think it's good, but hand it in thinking "He's bound to like it", the teacher will hate it, purely because "God" clearly altered his view just to spite me

Doesn't matter. You didn't need to bring religion into this. It's likely to lead to a flame war.

Once upon a time I had an imaginary friend
by the name of Jesus
. And then when I found out Santa wasn't real, it all made sense.
And honestly, if people try to get on my case about about either not believing in imaginary people, or get on my case about potentially starting a flame war, I only really have one thing to say.
Get over it.
Not every one has the same beliefs, so all you self righteous Christians,Catholics,Jews,etc. just don't respond to me.
There.
Flame war averted [hopefully]

I wash my hands of any flamewars in this thread. My post wasn't intended to be flame bait and if anyone misinteprate it as such then it's their mistake, not mine...

This is more an example of simple childish ignorance than any kind of firm "belief" I had, but I never realised there was more than one language - I grew up speaking English and everyone I knew only ever spoke English (even kids I went to school with whose parents had immigrated and spoke other languages at home). It never occurred to me that words not in English could actually have a meaning - even after I started high school and learned a little Japanese and French, the song "Macarena" was released and I thought it was just a bunch of meaningless gibberish.
I had a variant of this actually, back when I was quite young. I knew that other languages meant things, but I thought that everyone THOUGHT in English and wondered why they would go through the trouble of translating everything instead of just speaking the "normal way".

But the weirdest thing...Hmm...Well, I had a classmate who claimed that his grandfather (who I think actually DID work with genetics) was trying and succeeding in creating Pokemon. I was easily the most gullible person I know. I still am, to an extent. While I like to think that I'm a heck of a lot smarter than back then, I hate to call people out on things like that, even if they sound unlikely, because they COULD be telling the truth and I hate calling people liars if they aren't.

That spiders have a lot of eyes because they steal the eyes off the things they eat and put them on themselves somehow.

That God did not exist. I left the shallow, force fed lie which prevailed due to my not wanting Him to exist due to my excuses in earlier life.
Man, no offense, but whenever I read something like that, it screams "fanatic."
I'm not sure if it's the phrasing or what.
Maybe it's because that's what the crazy evangelists on TV say, just in the first person.

'And you left the shallow-uh! Force fed lie-uh!'

'...I left the shallow, force fed lie...'

Televangelists. You can't trust them.

When I was younger I read in a Charlie Brown book that you needed long hair to contract pneumonia.

I believed that for a number of years.

That if I walked to the toilet in a certain number of steps and then flushed it in a certain sequence that I'd be sending a message to aliens.
