The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Reverend/Pastor?/ whatever you call yourself,

Every single dude who "leads" with "I am a man of the cloth," "I am a reverend," "I am a pastor," or whatever the heck you are, is a phoney and a con artist.

Every time. Never fails.

Especially on an anonymous internet message board.

It's a way of providing yourself with unearned instant credibility because people are brainwashed to reflexively believe--or at least to give lip service to--the notion that "men of the cloth" are morally and ethically superior.

Your droning "every accusation is a confession" is a total cop out.

When I was on the playground we used to say "I'm rubber you're glue whatever you say bounces off me and sticks to you."

At heart, you're completely infantile. That's why when you get frustrated because you can't ever engage in any kind of a meaningful logical debate, you repeatedly resort to saying "horseshit."
