Pineapple Je5us (Colt Brennan tribute)NM Redskin 08-01-2009, 06:40 AM Who cares... I do, that's why I ask. Lighten up Capt Bringdown. Luxorreb 08-01-2009, 08:01 AM Wow this topic got outta hand because of 1 dude. Insane. That's the problem with the internet. Pineapple Jesus in no way mocks Jesus or any religion. Perhaps someone should actually read the bible... 44Deezel 08-01-2009, 08:40 AM I like to picture Pineapple Jesus in a tuxedo T-Shirt because it says I want to be formal, but I'm here to party. SmootSmack 08-01-2009, 11:00 AM Hey guys i know its off topic but how do you change the message under your signin name? like Schneed10 for example has Ill salary cap your a$$. how do you do that? thanks Donate to the site, become a VIP SmootSmack 08-01-2009, 11:10 AM Well, since I was the one who came up with the nickname I suppose I should speak...from high above the mountaintop as I look down upon my children of this Earth (hold on let me put down these two stone tablets so I can focus)...but seriously When I came up with the nickname, my first thought was someone is going to be offended by this I'm sure. But then I thought, why should they be. For one thing, I'm a religious (fairly religious) Christian and I didn't find it offensive. Plus, as others have said it has nothing to do with Jesus or religion, or what have you. It's about people's strong beliefs and faith, if you will, in Colt Brennan. And it's a play on the term given to Michael Jordan back in the day...Black Jesus. Now we probably don't need to be going around calling skinsnut a moron or an idiot or whatever for his opinion. By the same token Nut, writing in big bold letters isn't going to do you any good either. And, again, I think you really misunderstood the intent of the nickname. Trust me, I'm sensitive to religious topics but this isn't one of them. Besides, does the Bible not tell us to lighten up...Proverb 17:22-A merry heart doeth good like a medicine And anyway, it's Je5us not Jesus Pocket$ $traight 08-01-2009, 11:42 AM If someone told me they were f'ing your sister....would that piss you off? Peoples religious beliefs are sometimes stronger than family relationships...it is a hot topic that should be left alone. This is highly personal and offensive to me, and it is hard to ignore when I go to this site daily and I see a thread dedicated to a new icon mocking Jesus' name as well as his crucifixion ....where else have you seen a crown of thorns?....and...by the way...I still don't get it....why is Colt supposedly Jesus anyways...is his a born again christian or something....if so....we are certainly mocking his beliefs....why not just talk about football and leave religion alone...it is just way too personal? I just dont get the point of a thread like this. I would love for someone to just appease me and lock it down for the respect of me and possibly many others Calm down, Mark. While you had a couple of good games, you really did ruin Gibbs' second stint here. Anyway, you are definitely taking this a little too seriously and I would be more offended if the moderators get in the business of censorship because people refuse to "change the channel". I don't think anyone is mocking Jesus at all. I am a Christian, too btw. wolfeskins 08-01-2009, 11:47 AM If it were so offensive, how come there isn't a single other person on your side? I guess we're all godless heathens. i am a christian. i accepted jesus at the age of 22 (i'm 35 now) and while i am not personally offended by this pineapple jesus stuff (i realize people are just joking around) i do see why some could be offended. just besause someone says they're offended shouldn't be a reason to bash them the way some of you have done. can't you just say "sorry your offended" then just move on. hooskins 08-01-2009, 12:00 PM The forum guidelines for this site need to be revised or removed. No one is made to adhere to them any more. Personal attacks are welcomed and encouraged more often than not. It's frustrating for those of us who try to play by the rules. Although I take no offense to this thread at all, I agree. hooskins 08-01-2009, 12:03 PM Look Schneed is schneed, he is gonna call out someone when he sees fit. I agree with what he said to(it is kinda stupid to get all riled up over a joke, especially it's lake of intent). Could it have been told a different way? Probably. skinsnut 08-01-2009, 12:21 PM Hey folks, I woke up to a wonderous bashing....did I express my offense without error? No...however, I will never back down at the defense of the name of Jesus....if you need to let the hate out....I am your target....pile on! I do appreciate the constructive feedback about how to block avatars so I don't see this image as well as the explaination of intent. I know the intent was not intentional, but it still is offensive. I was offended at the Michael Jordon Black Jesus references too by the way....I never said anything then...but to up the ante and throw a crown of thorns on it was a bit too much for me....especially if someone is suggesting making a profit by it by selling t-shirts too. I don't expect anyone to neccessarily agree with me, I was expecting a more respectful response...not for my sake, for I know how some of you feel about me now...but for the name of Jesus itself. |
