Fun With Godboy

On a bored surf the other day I stumbled across another Lusenet board called "A Place to Debunk Christians and Jesus Freaks". Now I'm no Christian, but I do find these people who like picking tiny holes in someones belief system (however stupid) a bit silly. So I decided to have a little fun.

Our main contributor, Jim Bowers, seems to enjoy copy and pasting huge sections of other websites to make his point. A rubbish way of doing things. Attack! Attack! Attack!

Do you REALLY know the 10 Commandments?

The Bible as the word of God

Babtists claim women have no souls

Fun, Fun, Fun (as the Beach Boys might say)

Looks like Jim and the godsquadders deserve each other.
I say let 'em slug it out without interferring. Just stop any of 'em crawling out of the ring.
I notice he doesn't have a go at (sharp intake of breath) Muslims, Jews or any other flavour of dogma follower.
C'mon, I think the guy's just prejudiced. EVERYBODY deserves to be told their belief system is shit. Everybody.

And lo! On day one was the word, and the word was with god, and the word was god, (or allah, or ra, or jawah, or krshna, or maybe pohemnakloptepica-chu-gopeepee) and god gave the word to every living creature that walketh or crawleth on the earth, or flyeth in the heavens above, or swimmeth in the waters below. Yay! God gave unto each a different word, and verily, he gave to each a different understanding of the word, even unto a different meaning to each of the words he had given, and then god stood back to watch the confusion he had caused, and saw that it was good fun.

Mishter Lynskey, I think you’ve found your vocation!

And it’s nice to see – just from the threads you link to – that you’re at least the third Askadrunkite to have a go at Jim Bowers…

A storming performance Lynskey. The thing that really worries me is that AAD looks really quite sensible in comparison to the various creatures of the deep who were dumb enough to bite. Do we have to consider that it really doesn't matter ( and I guess we knew that, at least) how far we stray, we still cannot match the sheer barking dementia (Job 13.13) of your victims?

I know. You think we're wierd then you find people who actually believe in something. Why would you start a forum like that? Especially a Lusenet one where you know that maybe 10 people will see it?

Maybe JIM BOWERS the cut and paste MAESTRO was molested by priests as a child. Here's hoping.

Yes,

I know, I know. Jim is a pain. But, Lynskey, you seemed to handle him quite well. Is there any chance in you being a moderator pro temp? I'm looking for ANYBODY who can at least start some interesting conversations, instead of the catcalls thrown by old Harvey. At the rate he's killing himself he'll be out in a week.

On that stupid forum? It looks like the thing has been set up with a phoney email so I doubt it's getting moderated at all (hence the fact my posts haven't been deleted).

I seek not moderation, merely for that forum to become an utter farce rather than just a total one.

It wasn't much posted-to anyway and I doubt it will ever be more than a few people making themselves feel good at the expense of someone elses faith.

Leave them to it.

-- Lynskey (paul@daymaker.freeserve.co.uk), October 01, 2002.

Ah, erm, it does have a moderator, the poster above is that moderator and one of my posts has been deleted.

I want to start a new forum called "A Place To Debunk JIM BOWERS". Any takers?

-- Lynskey (paul@daymaker.freeserve.co.uk), October 02, 2002.

Go Ahead.

I just checked the 'Debunk' forum and Jim has made it clear he's not going away without a struggle.

-- Doug (od@cod.com), October 03, 2002.

But who is the real Jim Bowers - maybe this guy - http://mobile.dj.net/jimdjjimbowers.html
