I know not all Christians think like that. I have a lot of Christian friends.

It's just the "Ned Flanders" type of people.

"I've done everythign the bible says! Even the stuff that contradicts the other stuff."

What the Flooping 'eck happened to my avatar!

EDIT: SENTYNAL!!!!!!!!!!

Gladstone did yours.

Fine then, I'll yell at him.

One question? Why that picture? I expected something more, Bartiforums-related, like "Dial-up sucks! Boo, Nat." Or something like that.

Hey guys, I'm back.

On topic, I've never heard of anyone banning Bartimaeus, though one of my friends pranked me about it being on the news and some church banning it.

I believed her because of the crazy fundalmentalists.

They put the mental in it.

Honestly, they tried to ban the teletubbies.

Nevermind, I could see where they were going there.

welcome back Ianna

@ Artemis - why are both those barti related slogans about me <_<

You were the subject of the last prank.

The ORLY baby is just so awesome we had to use it.


Ban the Teletubbies! Creepy things... *shudder* I dread to think how odd I'd have ended up if I'd watched them as a child rather than hitting stuff with swords on various computer games at that sort of age...

probably a lot less cynical :P

I was a wierd kid. I discussed religious matters and such with my parents. And ran around like a maniac. And read a lot. And watch Lamb Chop and actually got all the jokes.

Anyway, DIE TELETUBBIES! They came out when I was in Kindergarten, I thought my friends needed help when they told me they watched it.

That reminds me of Stewie from Family Guy... I really need to stop watching that show...

never stop watching family! Stewie comes out with the greatest lines

Peter freed Stewie from the grasp of the teletubbies by changing the tv channel. Stewie was so greatful that he promised Peter when he too over the world, Peter's death would be quick and painless.

Thanks, Nat.

But honestly, I'm not saying they should be banned (I liked them before they ended crappy), why don't people try to ban His Dark Materials?

A crazy lady is in Georgia trying to ban Harry Potter and people swarm over Pokemon and such but....why not HDM?

I mean, if I were a fundamentalist I'd freak out if they were trying to kill God. It would be like the Da Vinci Code.

Or why not ban Daughter of God?

So if these people want a cause, why don't they find something that they can actually claim condones God and the Bible?

Right that's just my rant on how contradictory these people are.

It's because it's already obvious. They're trying to show how everyone except them is secretly a satanist.

Yeah, you're right.

I'm one too guys. Because I read books that don't deal with God, in a good way, directly and they have magic in them.

I'm bordering on being burned at the stake just hanging out here.

Lest Laura Mallory got Idiot of the Year from Washington Post.

My parents both abandoned their religions and took up new ones. (Sort of.) Lucky me.

Who's Laura Malloy?

The woman in Georgia trying to get Harry Potter banned and replaced with Left Behind or Narnia. She says they cause school shootings.

Because Harry carries around a gun all the time, let me tell you.

...I just had a mental image of some psychopath walking into a school, pulling out a stick, and shouting made up Latin-esque words at people.

Someone should make an avatar like that.

Laura Malloy?

What an idiot. I laugh at her lack of intelligence.
