This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

One of Nox's brother's-in-arms, no doubt.

What a moron. Hope he's in intense pain.

At least he was setting a good example for the kiddies with his sign verbage. :)

If he only got first degree burns he wussed out. That's not how you set yourself on fire in protest. If there's no charred corpse, why are we going to look up from our MMORPGs with momentary disinterest?

Actually I respect the holidays mostly, which is why I'm not replying with deserved hostility to this piece of provocation. I don't intend to fire on anyone from now (Christmas eve) to after new year's.

Then.....
RPGPundit is a fucking fascist asshole and a hypocritial megadouche.

You can still diss me, I'm Jewish. I don't give a fuck about the birth of Jesus.

Why not? He was jewish after all

For you the day you found a minor error in a Post by Spike and forced him to admit it, it was the greatest day of your internet life.  For me it was... Tuesday.

For the curious: Apparently, in person, I sound exactly like the Youtube Character The Nostalgia Critic.   I have no words.

You know, around 1230 in Florence, a guy said that Jesus was a circumcised Jew, and was burned at the stake for it.

It's true that he was Jewish, but he's not one of the ones we're very proud of. Since him, we've had nothing but trouble. We'd have much preferred if he just sawed planks like his dad told him to.

It was adultery if God was the Daddy or fraud if Joe was the Daddy. That's all I'm saying...to quote a friend:

"In any given passage of the bible, God is benevolent, omnipotent or omniscient. Pick two of three."

Benevolent? And here I was thinking these were ants sucking up to the kid with the magnifying glass!

Who knew?

You guys seemed to spend a fair share of time having the world kick you in the balls before him, too.

'Course, the Irish were the punching bags for a good portion of Europe, so I sympathize. My friend does, too: :jesus:
The only thing I ever believed in the Bible was John 11:35.

Not really. Just the Assyrians. But that was the way thigns were done in those days. Once the ram touched the city gates, no quarter was given. Kill them and take their stuff. It was just a matter of, "you have some land, we want it." That's fair and reasonable and no-one can really complain about it, because everyone's done it.

But being forced into ghettos, prohibited from owning land and from certain professions, plus the pogroms and holocaust, now that shit we can complain about. And that started with that bloke. Or his followers, which comes to the same thing.

You forgot the Egyptians and the Babylonians, Kyle, let alone the Romans! What about Antochus? It was only under David and Solomon that Israel kicked arse and took names - well in ancient times, at least...  :D
