religous freaks

I mentioned teh forum that I go to...I am not so sure that its so much a tree-hugger forum as it is a place for rednecks to gather and share stories and advice. They all I am sure are members of the NRA. Not that that is a bad thing but I think they are the hardcore ones i.e. Charlton Heston.

They all talk about being prepared for the next big storm or whatever and how prepared they are for it. They have hundreds of gallons of gasoline for their generators and thousands of gallons in reserve. It makes sense to me and I can agree with them on most points. I too would like to eventually live an "off the grid" type lifestyle. They do lack the tree-huggery that I was hoping for there.

Then not to mention there are a ton of religious freaks there. Not to offend anybody but what the hell? I had noticed a thread and it was about X-mas and A few people made sure to spell Christmas like CHRISTmas. Give me a break!

I stirred the pot a bit and wondered if you could have Darwin without God? That sparked a huge debate. I by all rights am an athiest. I don't believe in a God and have no plans to do so. Don't hate me and judge me because I have a different belief than you. I don't not like people because they are catholic or christian. Makes no sense. I find it to be very un-christian/catholic to dislike me because I have a different belief structure.

It gets nuts at this place and it seems that God is the focal point of many of the people there. Most are good natured about it and don't pass judgement and that should be applauded. It's the wackos there that make it unbearable at times.

They even had a topic of what will people be calling their X-mas trees this year. Give me a break!

I am off my soap box now.
