I am the one who is constantly being attacked, and I'm never posting at the Café again.

Back on topic: I thing tithing is kinda cool, because it's better than paying for religion with tax money like it's done in Europe.

Lobo, you are right so I will up the bet. If I lose and I ever come back, I will send Danny $100.

Of course if I win and Danny posts before one month, Danny owes me $100

Slide you have promised MANY times never to return.

What is this the WWE? Look dude if we take a vote and the members decide there is not gravity it does not make it so LOL. You are replacing Al as the most unintentionally funny poster in NVMS.

How can what I said to you be an attack, if what you said was not an attack? IT WAS THE SAME THING! EXACTLY! Only difference is I said it as a joke.

THE ONLY way what I said could be an attack Slide, is if what you said was an attack. You should leave forever based on that ALONE! And send $100 to the Lions Club in my name. But you won't. We all know it.

But back to my point, right now as a matter of fact I am having trouble figuring out if you are serious or telling a joke. That is not an attack, this is a fact.

Besides the vote would be rigged. My crew who is plotting to take over the world would all vote for me anyhow! It wouldn't be fair.

Dude. This is serious: I HAVE NEVER WELCHED ON A BET!!!!

If you don't believe me, I will be happy to put in you touch with folks who will verify that.

And I AM SERIOUS AS A HEART ATTACK. I'm sick of your ad hominem attacks.

Either agree to the bet or agree you are a wrong. here is your chance to get rid of me for good.

And I'll be happy to send the $100 to whomever you wish if you don't want it

"Slide you have promised MANY times never to return. "

Either put up or shut up.

So I was attacking and you were not. It simply does not stand up to basic logic. No matter how angry you are about it basic facts do not change. Agree to the bet or agree I was wrong?

Yea as if those are the only two choices. Maybe we should have a vote as to whether you even have a sense of humor.

Settle down a bit. You are about to burst a vein.

I'm nit even sure how this bet could be settled. The Café doesn't have a poll function.

Threads like this are probably why. Taking a vote on whether someone should leave a forum is a sucker's bet.

Think about, Slide: do you really want your fellow members of this forum to serve as your jury?

And maybe if parents put 10% of their income towards their children's education and welfare, and their future needs, like a down payment on a house when they get to that point, we'd have a lot better planet. Today the Pope accepted the resignation of a bishop who used millions of paritioners money to decorate his home. That is what tithing brings you.

Tithe to your children instead.


No, that is NOT "what tithing brings you." If it were, the Pope would not have asked for the resignation. The bishop was abusing what tithing is about. If you don't WANT to tithe, that's fine. (I never did, I gave what I could.) But don't point at the rotten apple and claim it as the norm. Smile

No, you can't report the church or the pastor for keeping your 10% tithes even though the Good Book says you'll be repaid tenfold.

But it's not a pyramid. More like a spire.


Thanks for a good laugh...

For the record I was again simply pointing out irony. I was making a joke about putting it to a vote, which if that was unclear my bad.

Oh I knew that. Usually when you address me it is with the customary "hey dumb bell!" It seems really the only one who is so hot on the idea is Slide. I think everyone else knows what is going on. Thanks Jeff!

We'd all get along if we had more religion in our hearts. We'd have more religion if more people donated to their faithes. We'd donate more if we all would tithe... Oh wait a minute...this is where we started..,

Yes it would be just heaven like Noth Korea.
If there is a single truth about Magic, it is that nothing on earth so efficiently evades it.
