Texas schools board rewrites US history with lessons promoting God and guns

[Plow]

That makes sense. So, then, Texas is just bigger than California, so when the rest of the states buy textbooks, they would tend to follow the biggest buyer, I guess.

Nah, they go for whichever the state agrees on.

I.E. Kansas, Nebraska, Dakotas, Missouri, Minnesota, will probably go Texas, while Illinois/Michigan could probably get Texas slightly cheaper due to the localized volume, but will more likely go with Cali versions.

If anyone wants to continue this conversation with me, send me a PM. The thread is not called "The Christian Life of Egon"


Edit: But I can make a thread if there is enough demand!!!

[Elvis]

Wait a sec. Either Egon is trolling or, he is trolling.

Don't you hate Muslims? And you're asking for religious tolerance?

[Yuri-G]

asking for religious tolerance is probably something you should only do if you practice religious tolerance yourself, yeah.

[Elvis]

Not if you regard one religion as false, and only preaching evil and stuff.

I don't care what anyone believes as long as they keep it to them-selfs. I really hate going to the store and some random person comes up to me to "Share jesus".

The next person that comes to my door asking to share his religious views i might just let him in. Let him talk about what he thinks about the afterlife. Then after he is done i will show him what i believe in, then i'll turn on porn and see how long he stays.

If you don't want me to share my personal part of my life with you, don't bring your shit to my house at least.


EDIT: This doubles when its 8am on a Saturday and my doorbell rings. If it is anything other than a surprise stripper standing at that door i rage.

EDITX2: I take that back, even if its a stripper i get pissed. that bitch can come at noon

I have heard some really screwed up things on this board, but I think that's the most offensive yet.

Edit: After reading your post again, I find myself very angry. You can stereotype all you want, but fact is, you know nothing about me. Tonight, I will pray for you, and I really hope that you at least learn to respect other people's religious views. You can hate on me all you want, I know I am not liked very much on this board because I am a conservative, which I don't mind at all. But being hated on just because I am a Christian, is a step you sir are taking to sound like fascist.

It was more of one of those old Republic jokes (since this actually happens), but I say to you: nice trolling, bro!

Pray for me. I really, really need it.

Did I ever say I hated Islam? And no, I haven't trolled this thread at all.

[Lucavi]

Shut up and pray for me, Egon. Do it all loud like, like in the movies - the kind that disturbs and freaks out the people around you.

I heard God likes it more when you pray to him loudly - gets him all hot in the loins.

Why the fuck people think these faiths are so amazingly disparate is what I wanna know.

[Lucavi]

Justifiable hatred requires division. These twits literally HAVE to place divisions between one another or they can't sleep at night.

Its all the same tripe, passed through different regions and spreading to different ancient people, but you'll never convince people of it because none of these idiots wants to ever believe that we all came from the same place, are the same people under the skin, and will go to the same place regardless of what we believed in while alive.

TLDR: people are people. Once again.

[MF Perm tha Fineass]

I can't wait for the day that Jesus hands out prayer-powered shotguns so us patriots can protect the American border. Just like it said in Revelations.

On a related note, I just started taking a comparative religion course online, where most of the participation is thru message boards. Some loling already, but I think most of them mean well, as trolling or preaching would likely result in a poorer grade. Still it is interesting seeing that almost all of the discussion on the boards is about how any one person practices their religion and how foreign the religions were studying seem. Ethnocentrism is a fucking bitch.

Because that's just lineage and not "moral structure".

Old Testament has a very wrathful God, whereas New Testament has a very Loving God. Jewish only believe the old, Christians believe both BUT mostly focus on the morals of the New Testament.

The Koran is basically an entire rewrite with Muhammad saying "they got it wrong".

So yes a lot of the people from the books are the same, but the actual content of the way you're supposed to live your lives is very different. (obviously not everyone follows their own way correctly, see crazy baptists/catholics/etc.)
