poll: WWJND?

[silverwhisper]

it's a simple question: what would jesus not do?

please, no christian-baiting or unprovoked malicious snark.

ed

p.s.: as always, my answers later, yadda yadda yadda

[Origen]

please, no christian-baiting or unprovoked malicious snark.

Feeling a little deluded today? Or simply hopelessly optimistic?

[silverwhisper]

a little bit of both. as ever. :p

[Origen]

Jesus would NEVER encourage anyone to break the law. He was a big-business Libertarian who believed in plutocracy: government of the rich, by the rich and for the rich.

Just ask BB.

[silverwhisper]

that's the very clear meaning of "render unto caesar that which is caesar's", i take it?

[Wook]

17 minutes in and the snark is already ankle deep in here.

Dude...

Jesus would not:

Lie, cheat, steal, sleep around, get drunk. (Not to be confused with drinking the alcohol though eh...) By the same token JC would avoid partake of anything to excess. He also would not blindly follow rules just because they were rules. As Org snarkily pointed out Jesus understood, or understands if one must go there, that rules have a time and place wehre they must be set aside as inapplicable. The irony of his followers then demanding that rules be followed blindly has quite the sweet taste to it. :sawink2:

[COTSBOE]

Jesus would not leave an empty coffee pot on the burner. He would also not vacuum someone's office while the occupant was on the telephone. Most importantly, Jesus would not spam people with pretentious chain letter e-mails; even if they were of a Christian nature.

[Salah_ad_Din]

Jesus would never ask someone to send in a big donation in return for him praying over a handkercief.

Does that count as Christian baiting? :D

He would never turn his back on me.

Bad Salah! Bad!

****, man, you know that there's an ankle deep entry level of snark here on any topic. :D

salah, i really do like it when you can tear yourself away from warcrack. :>

[BattleNymph]

Jesus would not hate you.

It's like the tide. Some days and times it's higher or lower than others and on some days and times ti goes to extremes that send you looking for high ground. :sawink2:

I'm trying to be a functional junkie. :D

[Wook]

What level are you up to with the pally? In my random moments where I don't have tiem for my hunter I've been runninga round with a Belf-adin.

[Salah_ad_Din]

My Paladin is level 53, holy spec. I have a level 30 hunter and a 16 Priest. I've really quit worrying about levelling and started just enjoying the game. I play a little less that way. :D I've become an officer in a guild and so I spend most of my time helping people and recruiting new members and helping them. I enjoy that more than grinding levels.


Salah-ad-Din,
Jesus freak

[BlueNinja]

Jesus would not hate you. Was that a general, or to one person in particular? Because, I mean, I am a furry and all. :D


I think I can say with 100% certainty that Jesus would not ride a Segway. :th_angelsmiley4:

I didn't have to grind any levels out. I just kept going to where the quests were and doing them till I hit 60. :sawink2: I hear ya though. those last 7 levels to 60 are hard. But once you hit 58 you can go into outland and I HIGHLY recommend abandoning the old world as quickly as you can and getting out there. The rise in the quality of your gear is nothing less than meteoric. The Belf-adin is going to be retribution specced when I'm done.

[Salah_ad_Din]

I've still got some quests I can do. I haven't done Silithus, Eastern Plaguelands, or Winterspring yet. But I'm really in an odd spot in the guild. We have about 5 in their sixties, maybe 3 of us in the 50's and then a herd of people in the 40s. So I spend a lot of time doing instances and quests to help them out, which gives little or no XP. The folks in their 60s also help out, but they're online a lot more than I am and have time to solo.

Probably when I hit 56 I'll put in it gear to get to Outland quicker.

Salah-ad-Din,

[silverwhisper]

...use cheatcodes. or camp.

If you've got 60's in your guild get yourself loaded down on quests for BRD and have them drag you through 1 or 2 times. That should get you a level all by itself. Then do the same for scholomance, and LBRS. You'll make 58 in no time.

[Salah_ad_Din]

Ret spec will probably level faster than holy. I went Holy spec because we dont have a Cleric and our only other Pally is Ret Spec. I end up as healer on most instance runs.

Hey have we totally hijacked this thread? I remember something about Jesus... :D

That in general. Hating a person and hating what they do can be different things.

[silverwhisper]

there's precious little difference on the receiving end though, i find.

[Salah_ad_Din]

Hey Jesus wouldn't use cheat codes ! :D


Salah-ad-Din,

[silverwhisper]

:troutslap:

god but i've missed that!

[Salah_ad_Din]

It depends. In the case of gay people, you're probably pretty close to the mark. I've found few people who can hate homosexuality and still love homosexuals.

In a case like drug addicition I think you can hate the thing and not the person much easier.

Salah-ad-Din,
Jesus freak

[Haze]

The only person I have ever said I have hated was my Dad, both his actions and him as a person, but when it came to the end I realised I didn't hate him either.

I think hating yourself must be a very painful state to be in and would hope anyone feeling that would look beyond their pain to see what kind of person they really were.

[Salah_ad_Din]

Hey silverwhisper, did your post count roll over and force you to a new userid? :D


Salah-ad-Din,
Jesus freak

[silverwhisper]

not exactly. there are reasons but it all boils down to this: i felt like i needed a new one. but feel free to go on calling me ed. :>

[BattleNymph]

I don't.

Just as an example, I have friends that I love very much who are into things I feel are destructive. I love them, I don't love what they're doing right now. That means I don't participate in their habits but I'm not hateful or nagging either cause I love them. I'll just be there to pick up the pieces when they realize the pain they've caused themselves.

[silverwhisper]

BN, we're talking about some very different things here.

[Wook]

Ret spec will probably level faster than holy. I went Holy spec because we dont have a Cleric and our only other Pally is Ret Spec. I end up as healer on most instance runs.

Hey have we totally hijacked this thread? I remember something about Jesus... :D

From what i understand a paladin's life in the end game is heal, heal, heal, adn maybe once in a while tank while healing. Holy spec is where you wind up. Another good reason for you to do a BRD run is the +healing plate drops like a warm spring rain in there.

[BattleNymph]

BN, we're talking about some very different things here.

Are we? I didn't get that. Please clarify. :)

[carmachu]

Jesus wouldnt do Origen's, ed's or Laggy's mom....

[Zayda]

....post whore

[silverwhisper]

presumably, jesus, being divine and hence infinite, has an infinite postcount, no?

[Salah_ad_Din]

**** is BRD a 40 man run or can 5 do it?

Jesus wouldn't ninja loot a chest when someone else killed all the mobs around it.

Salah-ad-Din,
Jesus freak

[Salah_ad_Din]

No he doesn't have an infinite post count any more than he has an infinte number of arms or infinite height.

Salah-ad-Din,
Jesus freak

[Origen]

But why?

i was being flip, but as ever, i'm curious to understand your thinking, salah. ?

BRD is 5-man period. You can no longer take more than 5 into it.

that happened to me last night!!! grumble fume...

Jesus wouldnt hijack a thread to talk about warcrack.. we do have a gaming forum

[BattleNymph]

Succumbed to plagiarism my friend? That's really quite sad. :( In fact, I think I'm gonna cry. ;)


Actually, ed answered my question in PM so we're on the same page now.

BRD, LBRS, and Scholo can all be done as 5 mans of the appropriate level. Just be sure to bring along someone that knows where to go and what to do.

[Salah_ad_Din]

Well, silver, I wasn't being profound, I just don't think that Jesus posts a lot on internet forums.

I would imagine if he did, he'd only need to do ONE post and it would count for all of ours.

[silverwhisper]

perhaps he would have an online ministry. :>

[Mouser]

He would never turn his back on me.


I know what you mean.

I don't trust you either.

;)

[dirkgentry2006]

What Jesus wouldn't do (http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2005/08/29)

[Rizzo]

Well,if that is a legitimate queston then, most of anything and everything I witness at Jr. high.

Or anything I do.

Or hear.

:saeek:You know, i could do this for pages.(see top of page)

[Joe Kickass]

Jesus wouldn't post.

[JasonStarfire]

Jesus wouldn't fudge his dice rolls if he rolls a 1.

[BattleNymph]

Heh heh... one of my daughter's favourite t-shirts is the one with "Jesus Saves..." on the front and "And Takes Half Damage" on the back...

:D

I so totally want that shirt!!!!!!!!
