Did you brew him in a hobo's asscrack? Do you think the titless version is better than the titted version? So many questions!
I don't want to get into a religion thing, but since the issue is inherently religion in the eyes of a Christian what is and is not sin is not based on their opinion, it's based on what the Bible says which is the word of an omniscient and omnipotent being, which in their eyes makes it fact. And it isn't like homosexuality is an extra-terrible sin, whether you're an adulterer, you suck other guys' dicks or you're a liar you're going to Hell if you don't repent because of what a book says, not because of the opinion of someone who believes in that book. What's hilarious to me is that no one would have gotten butthurt if he had simply said "I believe in the Bible" which is saying literally the exact same thing except not being specific about it. If you consider this guy a bigot then you must also consider every single Jew, Muslim and Christian to be a bigot. Hilariously all the people crying about how he's a bigot and a homophobe and that it isn't a first amendment issue are just as bad as the idiots who think it's a first amendment issue and that A&E wasn't within their rights to take him off the air. It completely devalues the real meaning of the words and is in actuality a silencing tactic used by people who aren't mature enough to not give a fuck what this irrelevant redneck says or who can't simply articulate a counter-opinion rather than attacking the person for completely harmless remarks.
Wait, wait! Moosehead is now a CRAFT beer? It's always been a run-of-the-mill swill beer. Just pop a lid off of any typical beer and there it is. It's been around since 1867. My grandmother probably didn't taste good after 1925.
That's not true at all. There's a lot of discretion when interpreting the bible and even the most hardcore fundamentalists don't take the bible verbatim.
Yeah most people frown on slavery being a good thing or killing your neighbour for doing yard work on a Sunday. Homosexual and scientific aversion however is still a major issue and to me makes them look like cavemen.
Crown, if you want a decent local Midwest brew, try Leinenkugel's Honey Weiss. It's my favorite beer.
So I go to see the hand surgeon yesterday about the carpel tunnel in both hands and I tell her I'd really like to get the right hand operation done this year since my deductible is met. She says it's easier to just do both of them at the same time. Since I can get both done on this year's insurance, my wife agreed with her. As we were driving home, I said to my wife, "Both my hands are going to be wrapped up, you're going to have to feed!" She said, "Dont worry honey, I'll take care of you." After a silent pause, I said, "You know, what goes in must come out." I've never seen her make that face before. So, what are your plans for New Year's Eve?
This is line of thinking is total bullshit to me. I'm sorry, but a bigoted belief is still a bigoted belief, it doesn't matter if it's tied to a religion. Also most Christians, and by most I mean practically all, cherry pick what parts of the bible they like to believe and they'll condemn homosexuality while ignoring entire passages that are inconvenient to them. I don't think you're actually ignorant enough to believe that homophobic comments like that are completely harmless either. I don't think the comments were as big of a deal as the media made them out to be, he's just latest jackass to say them. In other news I'm never drinking that boubon stout again. I'm pretty sure they just sacrificed any quality in taste just so they could say they had the strongest beer around. Seriously, that shit was fucking awful.
After dealing with politics and religion all holiday with family in town, I'm so fucking happy to see it here too.
My Chinese aunts came down for Christmas this year and taught my 2 1/2 year old nephew to squint his eyes and pull at the corners to make his eyes Chinese (if he pulls the corners up) and Japanese (if he pulls the corners down). Because it ain't Christmas until someone turns the baby racist.
The parts where English text is open to interpretation don't talk about homosexuality. There are translation issues with certain verses regarding homosexuality, yes, but unless you speak ancient Greek all you've got to go on is what it says in English. With what we're talking about, no there is literally no room for interpretation based on the accepted English translations. It's blatantly clear that the Christian God says homosexuality is a sin, and just like any other sin if you do not repent for it you are destined for eternal damnation. Anyone who blatantly ignores or disregards God's commands for their convenience is not a Christian and will suffer the same fate as any other sinner, which is something that is also very specifically and clearly explained in the Bible. If that line of thinking is bullshit to you then you don't understand Christianity in the slightest, not trying to be a dick. I agree with you for the record that the vast majority people who claim Christianity cherry pick. I already addressed that, but I'll say it again, the bible very clearly and specifically addresses people who claim to be believers who pick and choose which commands to follow and what to believe in that they will face eternal damnation. He's not a jackass to say it in my opinion. If you say "I am a Christian" you are saying you believe the EXACT same thing that the duck dynasty guy said with regards to sin. I mean, the guy clearly isn't the brightest based on the other shit he said in conjunction with the sin thing, but specifically citing an individual belief isn't any more dangerous than espousing the whole ideology. Anyone who takes an issue with what I'm saying, feel free to PM me because I'm not going to clog up the drunk thread with a discussion about religion past this.
Guhll there is always one beer snob fool who pipes in and says this. Im with Sack on leinenkugel it's thin piss water. I tried the raspberry lemon wheat last year and I'd be ashamed to be a beer company and release something like that and call it a "beer." It tasted like a watered down zima mixed with a miller 64.
Sack didn't say anything about Leinie's, and I didn't say anything about raspberry lemon wheat, because that isn't something men drink. The Honey Weiss or the Red are the only ones I drink from Leinenkugel. I think I may have had a summer shandy once.
I know you're trying to look hip drinking that Heineken, but just admit it's the skunkiest beer on the market.
