just like george w. bush is a face for the USA, or queen elizabeth is a face for the UK.

you said alot more than "he wasnt a great man"

communist board, lol.  do you even know the definition of communism?

there\'s no collective ownership here
we don\'t even have an economic system to distribute goods.

communism is hardly about censorship

what we do have, is a playground for people to say what they like in an attempt to amuse others.  

give me one good reason why he wasn\'t a good man.  just one

oh, did i mention it has to be something he can be held accountable for and not the vatican?

because someone like  J.W Bush is supposed to represent USA it doesnt mean that he is the appropriate man to represent your country.
J.W Bush is a disgrace and deserves no respect.
Just because he is the USA president it doesnt mean that YOU the american citizens have no right to criticize him, and say things agianst him.
The american citizens elect for their rights.They do not elect for the politicians\'/representatives sake.Its the citizens that make the country.Not the politicians.When leaders are being followed blindly because they represent the country then there is no democracy.There is democracy in textbooks.
In Attica the place where the real and first democracy appeared the citizens had complete conscious understanding of what is right or wrong and virtuesness.They made criticism to theiur leaders and if the leader was proven dangerous for democray and the virtues of their city they ostracized him

And as far as communism you are the last person to be called a communist.

Uni, I like you man, but just give it up. You obviously missed his point, and now you\'re trying to turn this thread into a political one. Just stop it mate.

And Jesus, what the hell does "And as far as communism you are the last person to be called a communist." mean???

I dont like his "I know everything about whats right and wrong" attitude.
I wasnt turning into a political one.The thing about J.W bush was just an example.
I was generally speaking that because some people are put to a place to represent something "important" whatever that is it doesnt mean that we should not criticize them.
I am not refering specifically to the Pope(or Bush).I ve heard many things about the Pope but since I dont know for sure I am not judging him.
I just didnt like some of mm\'s statements and the fact that he mentioned communism as if he is the appropriate man to talk about or explain to others(like always as if he is the best) the ideals of communism since he contradicts the true ideals of it
My point leads towards ideals and virtues not politics.
So what if he is supposed to represent the face of the Church?This means nothing.Its his actions that mean only

All mm did was write a basic definition of Communism. He also points out that we are in a forum, something not comparable to said subject.

That\'s just the thing, everybody here is talking about the Pope. Just the Pope, no one else. You\'re the one bringing other people to the topic.

MM, you use to refer to this board as a communist board - so, please don\'t act like this is something knew.

what we do have, is a playground for people to say what they like in an attempt to amuse others.

oh, did i mention it has to be something he can be held accountable for and not the vatican?

I could care less if I amuse you or anyone else on this board. My opinions are mine , just as you have your own.

He was the head of the church, he can be held accountable for everything that goes on. It was his job to oversee these things. Just like if we have a massive goverment conspiracy, we look to our President.

Personally, I\'m not sad that he is dead and I\'m not happy he is dead. He\'s simply dead. I see him no different than any other person who is in church of a religion or any other large group.

And as far as all this goes, if you want to throw a fuss about me saying what I said and how you won\'t take any disrespect against the now deceased Pope, then you need to look further than this thread. Go into Current Events where his death is openly mocked by fellow members. Go in another thread in Off-Topic where the is talk about him going to heaven to screw Mother Teresa. Don\'t simply pick one post out and delete it . At least be even about your dictatorship.

@Soul Reaver: Did I say that mm\'s werent examples?He mentioned examples I mentioned too.

And only one sentence of my post mentioned the word communism and was irrelevant to my first point.(you do remember mm calling himself "our communist leader" dont you?)

iif you were around long enough, you would know that it was actually Clyde who was tagged as a communist, not me.

someone even made him a special avatar

so, better luck next time

if i missed other comments disrespecting the pope, im sorry.  

i have very little time and interest in reading 90% of the drivel thats posted here

(and the 5-6 posts above this one)

and uni, from where you live, you have little to complain about george w. bush.  very little

ok

RIP John Paul II

I\'m far from a Catholic but I recognize greatness and the impact he has had on the world and its people.

Why even try to pass this off as "Clyde"? That may of been cute three years ago, but it isn\'t any more. You can\'t hide behind a chimp as an easy way out of something. MM and Clyde, usernames  by the same person. So what exactly is the difference?


Either way, he\'s dead. RIP. We agree on disagree\'ing about how "Great" of a person he was.

thats when the tag was given to him, moron

when i first created clyde (well over three years ago), it was funny.

do you see me using him lately?

L-I-C is right

m&m is wrong.

And unlike m&m I see outside my country as well.

How about we just start deleting every single post deemed offensive by you, even if there is no actual rule against them. There is NOTHING saying no one can voice their opinion against the Pope or how great he was, except for you. So what do you do? You delete my post, which I could care less about, but if you are going to do it, do it the right way, get rid of the posts that actual make jokes about him being on a feeding tube. Don\'t try and single one post out.

If you are going to do it, do it right. Don\'t do it half-assed and don\'t make excuses for it.

And I am not going to dig back in old threads where you use to ban trolls / delete posts and use the comment about it being a communist board. Everyone on the board remembers it, except for you, due to your selective memory.

*twirls finger in air*


And I tried to be civil about this, I said we could agree on disagree\'ing, but you won\'t drop and have to bring out personal insults.

when is the last time i deleted a post?

....waits

oh yeah

dig back all you want

so two scamps remember incorrectly.  i should be worried now
