Oh, don't take it to your heart Maren, it's the usual ultra-conservative prod bashing :tickled: I think it's pretty ironic, though we have to admit people usually died on the cross.
hey stop stirring up sectarian tensions

Well, if Mehdi was killed by a falling crucifix in some backward part of the world, let's say, in a little Transylvanian village, that'd be funny.
now thats ironic

Looking down on others (like calling them "sheep" and all of that) just because they believe in Jesus or similar is just... pretty ridiculous (imo, of course).
Of course. ;) Well, I didn't call them sheep. But there's this "The Lord is my shepherd" phrase; Christians metaphorically refer to themselves as god's sheep. Doesn't mean they "look down on" themselves, does it?!

Im confused as to why shes confused.
BTW, how old is she?
just the same age as my dad (okay, 3-weeks-difference) <-- just testing your memory =)
no, it was like she said that this guy totally looks like Jesus. after I told her it's actually not the 'guy' who's talking, but Jesus. on the pic I mean ;) she didn't really understand why. also told me she thinks it's ok that I don't put my pic on because why should I, but you... you're famous, tha's what she said... just to say she hates comptuers and a totally pc-analphabet (sometimes I wish to be the same too, although recently it doesn't get on my nerves that much as it used to)

I was about to flick in the above, but didn't see that it was really necessary (as I think most know that), but fair enough :)

It was your friend you said that, just as you said (didn't aim what I wrote to you) - though he used the word "sheep" in a condescending way, which is just... :puke:

Let people be what they are, and go on with it...


EDIT: and I don't know if it means that every person that consider themselves to be christian looks down on themselves due to a phrase in the bible, perhaps they do - perhaps they don't... Does it really matter though?! :)
