So it is American custom to hold your right hand over your heart during a rendition of the "Star Spangled Banner" AKA the national anthem, now I can certainly see plenty of American Citizens that don't adhere to this custom, but its pretty much mandatory for the Government Employee to do so, why Is Barack not holding his hand over his heart? Is he "better" than the rest of us? Does he even understand he is supposed to do that? Or does he know he is supposed to and just doesn't give a shit about the USA?

The song being butchered is secondary here.

That WAS all over the media when it happened. That's about as important as him wearing a lapel flag to some people and other people are offended. Oh well, free country... sort of.

I find it interesting that those who are quickly offended by the prez, are often the good ol' boy christians...but the flag is a false idol and the christian god gets mighty jealous about such things...watch out!

I don't care what Obama does, he's a Satanist anyway. I see you like to attack Christians as well.

Well it looks like the whole right hand over your heart saluting business is going out of style these days. Yet another you-tube video. What is the point of this thread?
Snopes article on the matter.
Well it looks like the point of this thread is to bitch about Obama.

I don't care what Obama does, he's a Satanist anyway. I see you like to attack Christians as well.
I thought he was a Muslim? Now he is a Satanist...It all has less relevancy beyond historical than Astrology. God, Satan, unicorns, snipe, the easter bunny...all childish make-believe.

And I would not say that a good tongue in cheek ribbing would be considered an attack...but ok, I can see how one who believes strongly, could perceive my electronic vowels and consonants as an attack on their fragile long held traditions (nobody really believes this shit, do they? They just bow their head and follow along...until they get near death).

But it should be noted that in all of those same conversations, my lack of belief in the man upstairs, is usually "attacked" and often some evil manifestation of the first century novelists' mind which directly refutes all the love of the "father" is used as the justification of how reasonable, rational humans might see things differently.

[SIZE=+1]Satan is what people associate with evil. So let's just say he is evil. Then your Easter Bunny argument is null. You do believe that people can be evil right? Bush and Cheney were evil too, so don't try going there.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=+1]Oh, so instead of "ribbing", you just down talk Christians.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=+1]I haven't noticed people knocking Atheism on this site. Why are you so hostile? I have no problem with Atheism, people are free to believe whatever they want.[/SIZE]

When someone is called s Satanist, it means they worship satan...and if the Easter Bunny argument is null, then you believe in unicorns...what about leprechauns...really evil leprechauns?

Well welcome noob!

And as for hostile, I am just having fun, please pay no attention to my ramblings!

Your version of fun is bashing others beliefs? You know you're wrong so what's the easiest thing to do, "Oh I'm just kidding". You clearly have a hatred for Christianity because you've bashed it in more than one thread. Just be a man and say it, don't hide behind, "I'm kidding" bullshit.

Really mature calling me a noob. Like a little kid in some gaming forum.

Ok you got me...I think christianity is really silly and has been and continues to be, more harmful than the false hope that it provides. I absolutely do not hate christians. I have been one before.

So as we keep this on a level plain, while I am bashing others beliefs, you are accusing others of not being as christian as you are and claiming that they are evil or somehow connected with "satan"...and then you come and try to play this crap.

I am not hiding, I am attempting to alleviate the possible hurt feelings of a sensitive "believer" to whom which such things should matter none....but whatever.

I have no issue with any religion, any law, any lifestyle or Ideal, so long as it does not effect the life, liberty or freedoms of another.

Unfortunately this seems to run absolutely counter to the Neo-Con fake ass christian zealots that dominate the sound bites...you know the kind...the mega church pastor who speaks out against homosexual until his gay regular prostitute/meth buddy shows up...Or the angelic megachurch beauty queen who thinks god is against gay marriage, but is all for getting fake boobs to win a beauty contest. Or the loving christians who have managed to make Iowa a more progressive and liberal state than california by denying marriage to gays and lesbians, trying to use the bible to cover up their agenda of intolerance, or to suggest dinosaurs walked with man, and single handedly made the 7th and 8th definition of the word "theory" the one commonly used and understood. Turned 9th grade biology classes into bible discussions and hoped 8 years of abstinence only education would keep kids from having unprotected sex, so long as they put a ring on their finger like mommy did 4 times already as a promise, and prayed really hard.

The problem with religious people minding their own business is the same as the tobacco companies. If new converts are not obtained, revenues cannot be sustained as the addicted succumb to the ultimate truth.

You can not even sneeze without there being some expectation of a celestial blessing to save one from the demons within...like the almighty has time for the common man with the common cold. and as if the sneeze was not a distraction enough as it is...now 4 or 5 people must proclaim their faith rather than letting it go or a simple ¡Salud! for those of us south of the 48th parallel.

edit:I did not see the noob part...this was in response to you not being aware of the volatile debates that have had many a thread closed (this one will be no different) since you became a member a couple of months ago I was welcoming you...sorry veteran RIUer! By the way, I am old...calling me immature is kind of a compliment!
