What would the Devil have driven?
Since it's pretty much settled that Jesus would have ridden a bike,
let's debate now what the Devil would have driven... On Jan 9, 12:22 pm, "David V." wrote: donquijote1954 wrote: I thought he drove an SUV. "The Devil" does not exist. But you do remind me of Don Quixote. His SUV polluted too. DonQuixote rode a horse, Rocinante, and Sancho rode a donkey, like Jesus. The Devil does not exist but Christians are often found doing evil things. I have no doubt in my mind though that the Devil would have driven an SUV if he existed.

What would the Devil have driven?
I'm not of any religious persuasion that is easy to explain, but I find the
fact that you keep making all sorts of flames based on religion is getting to be a little offensive. "donquijote1954" wrote in message ...

Amy, my attack is not against religion, just hypocrisy. But you would find the same spirit in some of the best known American personalities... "The motto stated a lie. If this nation has ever trusted in God, that time has gone by; for nearly half a century almost its entire trust has been in the Republican party and the dollar--mainly the dollar. I recognize that I am only making an assertion and furnishing no proof; I am sorry, but this is a habit of mine; sorry also that I am not alone in it; everybody seems to have this disease." - Mark Twain in Eruption |

Religion is a belief in nonsense, as such, it should develop a thicker skin, and less of an attitude. On my local newspaper's message boards, nearly half the messages are religious folks condemning others. Strangely enough, when one responds in kind, one is labeled as intolerant. You may be born black or white or taupe, but last I checked, the doctor doesn't lift a mysterious flesh flap when you're born and assert, "this one's a Hindu centrist." While one shouldn't be required to respect religion, tolerance is a good friendly thing to practice, however, laughs trump tolerance. |

With all due respect I think you are wrong... God created a master race to teach the world how to eat McDonald's and drive SUVs (at the same time)... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=foR3sfWu5IQ Thus he made them to His image. |

Do I have a problem with religious cyclists? No, actually I think they practice what they preach. |

You've essentially said "All Christians drive SUV's" "SUV's are evil" "Therefore, all Christians are evil." Only you've managed to pad it out to make it much more offensive than that. |
