Daily Atheist Devotional #196 (Devil Dog Edition)

The post is labeled "Daily Atheist Devotional #196"!!   Did you miss that somehow??  GF was giving you some valid answers.  No need to get your knickers in a twist over it.  This is not a case of intruding.  You are as welcome to post as anyone, it is an open forum.  You may have noticed there are a variety of folks posting.  But if you come on and start with the whining about this being a WLS forum and all these mean people are posting off topic you need to learn to block fast.  About 1/3 of the posts on OH are off topic in that case.  Everything is discussed, from WLS to politics.  From LOL Cats to Religious and non religious beliefs.  Pick and choose what you want to participate in and leave the rest alone.   If you are so singleminded that you do not want to have any fun then so be it.  

Well, I'm not one to follow the "oh, no, please stay!" crowd, so I'll remind you to not let the door hit your ass on the way out.

This thread really is a load of crap and so is the treatment this newbie is getting. Jump off your self serving egotistical high horses and relay your so called philosophical and intellectual information on a forum that is better designed to fit your swelling heads.
Repeat...this is a forum about obesity. Can't you understand?

We can understand just fine thank you. Unfortunately you don't seem to grasp the simple concept that most ideas are welcome on this forum and if they allow the xtian threads they also have to allow alternate points of view. Much like US school systems have to allow faith based clubs to use their facilities if they allow any other extracurricular groups to use the facilities.

 Okay, we haven't gone on a thread to tell others how to behave. We have not gone on a thread to finger wag. We haven't ignored the clearly labeled subject line of a thread only to ***** about the content of said thread. You however, have done all these things and yet you have the temerity to to call the posters here egotistical, and swollen headed? Yeah, right.

Apparently you are the one with comprehension issues in that you fail to understand that obesity is caused by many factors. You do not understand that a sense of community and support is essential to successful and sustained weight loss, and further, you do not get to determine how that community is designed, neither in content nor membership. You do not realize that you are not the arbiter of what is acceptable subject matter for a forum with such diversity of members, interests and needs. 

So, aren't you just a boat load of intolerance, misunderstanding and judgement. Your arrogance in trying to demand that an entire forum re-create itself to meet your specifications is jaw-dropping in it's scope. 

As a rule I generally invite people such as yourself to stick around hoping that the influence of reasonable and rational posters with open and questioning minds will help you to evolve into a person better able to understand, reflect and become a positive member of any community, on line or in real life. But in your case I take exception. There does not seem to be any intellect to nurture, nor any discernible benefit to be had by keeping you around, with the exception perhaps of comic relief. But sorry, we have met our quota for ******** fools and idiots already with others of your ilk. You are a total redundancy of whinging, foot stomping, chest thumping anti-intellectuals who are drawn to these posts by an innate desire to be in the vicinity or your superiors. 

Today is not my day to babysit the idiots so off with you now. Take your pompous ass and your empty head elsewhere, you are negatively affecting the collective IQ of this entire post just by being here. 

You are a joke.  I will just sit here and continue to let you sink yourself by talking more and prove me and probably others right in what we think of you and your public off topic threads. 
Have a blast.

 As a rule I love Canadians. I grew up with just a river between me and our neighbors to the north. Unfortunately there is an exception for every rule and you are a glaring exception to how most Canadians are usually highly intelligent, thoughtful and just really nice people.

They know how to behave in public, unlike yourself. They know not to spout off on subjects they are obviously and woefully inadequate and ill-prepared to address.

Doesn't appear as though you are "just sitting" there. Looks like you are insistent upon showing everyone just what an ass you can be.

Oh, and the 'We" you referenced? Better bring them with you next time, you are approaching epic fail trying to take on your betters alone. 

Run along now. Better concentrate on your weight loss. I expect you have totally mastered the art of failing at it so now perhaps you should rededicate your efforts to succeeding and leave the already successful to do whatever we want. Keep plugging away, someday you may even be allowed to sit at the adults table if your table and posting manners ever improve. 

Are you kidding??  The more Fini talks the more full of awesome she gets. 

Methinks the joke is on YOU.
