Nice. That would be a good change.

Zozo the Zrilufet 08-17-2007 06:33 AM

Allah means daddy, its supposed to help with closeness. Me, I'll just call God God, because thats what I'm used to.

looney-bin 08-17-2007 08:12 AM

Screw that Dutch Bishop. If I ever wanted to seriously call God Allah, I'd throw myself off a damn cliff. I hate to be all Patrick like, but by making Christians call God Allah, you've basically let the extremest muslims win.

Arxryl 08-17-2007 08:22 AM

Hm... meh. oh well...

I'l still call God God, because as Zozo said, I'm just used to it. Doesn't feel the same to call God "Allah". I mean, same guy but...

Mojo 08-17-2007 08:48 AM

Shut up. No, seriously.

Mac Sirloin 08-17-2007 10:29 AM

Yeah, I felt really stupid after I posted that, sorry to anyone here who has (Danish?) Dutch ancestors, that was pathetic and out of line of me.

Taytay 08-17-2007 10:29 AM

I call my God, God or Lord. And I will follow what the bible tells me, I wont follow some bishop duke whatever that means whackjob.

Mac Sirloin 08-17-2007 10:31 AM

ON TOPIC (for once).

God, the creator, Gman, Papa G, it its all the same to me.

Mojo 08-17-2007 10:34 AM

What? Nothing?

Mac Sirloin 08-17-2007 10:41 AM

What do you mean? Like, you expected some crazy annoying reaction?
I just re-read my "I never got welcomed GREET ME" thread and realized how pointless that is, also, I dont want to turn out like djreplay.

ALSO, I think its funny how I point out how funny it is that other people make racial innacuracies and then I pull stupid crap like that for cheap laughs.
Plus, the only person who would 'laugh' is Hobo, and thats just because of the Skwisgaar picture.

I'm with Mojo, seriously you need to shutup.

Mac Sirloin 08-17-2007 11:04 AM

I guess you didn't actually read what I said, because you just made a hostile remark about my explaining why I am not being a dick right now.

You should proabably try seeing what someone says before acting like a troll.

Nooooo, you got it all wrong!

*The Who?

So sorry TayTay :P. I'm kinda anti-religious.

Mac Sirloin 08-17-2007 01:15 PM

He's a character from the show Metalocalypse, and a reputed anti-dutch.

Which totally justifies my emulating him.

Anyway, I don't particularly care about atheists versus 'Believers", so no use trying to incite something there (Not that I was aying you were.)

Shut up. No, seriously.

Aww, did mofo get his feelings hurt?

Havoc 08-17-2007 05:21 PM

Wow... not our proudest moment...

Patrick Vykkers 08-17-2007 05:42 PM

Why should everyone else be forced to worship the Muzzie god? Why shouldn't Muslims call Allah God, instead of the tail wagging the dog.

Havoc 08-17-2007 05:44 PM

How about we don't worship any god and get rid of the entire goddamn problem all at once?!

Patrick Vykkers 08-17-2007 06:01 PM

Because it is foolish to discount the possibility of a supreme being and because atheistic states tend to turn out horribly.

Taytay 08-17-2007 06:12 PM

I beileve in God and follow the bible. But I'll respect your religions and not say anything.

Patrick Vykkers 08-17-2007 08:14 PM

So do I, Taytay. Feel free to say.

You keep posting these links like they are fact. I read it. It is completely biased and based on no facts.
These people were indeed religious fanatics. They believed by joining these crusades they would get into heaven regardless of previous sins. Christians killed other Christians. How the hell is that defensive!?
What about the Salem Witch Trials? Are you about to tell me they were burning real witches?

Patrick Vykkers 08-17-2007 10:01 PM

Nope. But Madden is a medieval historian.

Nemo 08-17-2007 10:09 PM

I wouldn't call a god "God," because, IMHO, god is a title, not a name.
But whatever, I don't believe in one.

Venks 08-17-2007 10:48 PM

Great now here I am reading this guy's crap and listening to it.

This loser is one of the authors that popped up on the scene after 9/11 to sell books easy by going over the Crusades. This dude is just saying his perception of the Crusades. His completely biased perception may I add.

He mentions the pilgrim army but nothing about how they killed innocent Christians. What kind of historian leaves out history?
