Are religious pros lame?

I ve never met a religious person that is not lame. The problem is that religion tends to numb your brain because everything is god's will or god has his ways, so you dont have to think. I really hate it when I think that this kind of thinking in a large scale affects me through politics, many politicians get a free pass just because they preach god's will and all these sentimental bullshit and religious people accept it. Most poor conservatives are religious.

 Christianism when first appeared wasnt like that, actually it was revolutionary and forward thinking. Actually what we have today is the christianism that was integrated into the system and became part of it centuries ago.

Agreed - Religion was created to cause divide in the human race but thats another topic...

OK, I’ll bite.

I’m critical of religion, but you could also consider me religious.

If religion was created to divide the human race, who created it? And why did that person(s?) want to cause division?

Because religion is central to people from megachurches in Florida to Subsaharan nomads to tribes living in the Amazon.
Who managed to create all those divisions?

[FrenchFriedClownFingers]

it wasn't created to divide it was created to guide. the beast within us needs some sort of structure to follow. it was meant to be training wheels i think so to speak but was infiltrated by whatever evil is. just my shitty two cents

I reckon it was cunts tripping out on drugs and they didn’t know
Like that shrine of Delphi they were just living in a gas cave or some shit and Moses was on shrooms when he saw that burning bush, heaps of those religious experience things sound like they were hallucinating the Mohammed cave one, too

I reckon particular people in time had profound trips and shit just snowballed, no big conspiracy

Like, dmt and shit is in so many plants and animals around the world cunts have to have tripped out on shit by mistake

I mean they were full primitives they woulda been hungry all the time, one of those people find a bunch of wild mushrooms they would have just ate the lot
Just imagine it, a whole bunch like that on an empty stomach
It would boot your arse around the universe for a couple days for sure

This thread is pure bigotry. Could you imagine a thread criticizing Muslim, Jewish, Buddhist or Sikh skateboarders? It’s abhorrent, no different than racist, misogynist, homophobic and transphobic garbage that is rightfully condemned all over this forum. I’m not sure how so few people here can see the blatant contradiction and hypocrisy.

Not surprising though, it’s exactly what I said in the Daan thread.

Leviticus 25:44-46 It’s ok to own slaves
Exodus 21:7-10 How to sell your daughter
Exodus 22:16-17 How to buy a virgin
Exodus 20:17 Women as property
Leviticus 19:20-22 it’s ok to rape a slave

If you actually read the Christian bible and you are like “Yes, I will base my life around these teachings “ you are a fucking sociopath.
All religions are silly superstitions that we as monkeys can’t seem to shake.

Yes that's all the talmud/old testament. I have to say i do think it's very funny that Christians just took Judaism and said "hey why don't we slap this granny flat called the new testament on to your easement"

I thought so.

And weren't the first Christians all Jews, even the founder?  So Jews taking Judaism and adding the granny is what you're saying happened?

Yes according to the lore, all the original apostles were Jews, but post resurrection and later Ascension into heaven, the apostles (as well as Paul whose story is covered immediately after the gospels of Matthew, mark, Luke and John) were given the great commission to go out and spread the word to gentiles as well as jews

I just looked it up and you're right.  It's whitewashing of sorts to say the christians wrote the new testament.  Actually it was jews who were into jesus.

To be a Christian you have to believe that Jesus is God. In Judaism there is only God. If you are worshiping Jesus, to Jews you are worshiping a false prophet.
Take a minute and think about that.
The chosen people of the Christian bible are convinced if you worship Jesus you are going to hell.
Superstitions are very powerful if stupid people are in control.

Yeah i was just making the point that they were all ethnically Jewish in Jesus' inner circle. I'm not sure the point he's trying to make, that you can only be fully Jewish if you're ethnically and religiously Jewish which is a pretty hardline stance to take

Apparently there are a ton of Jewish people who believe that believing in Jesus is the most consistently Jewish thing you can do. (found this video below).  My earlier point about white washing is that saying "Christians wrote the new testament" washes out the jewishness of it.

Edit: and yes religious people are lame in general. Same goes for religious pros.

- This old debate seems to be about skateboarders protecting skateboarding. Like, you shouldn't have any other devotion. It makes you suspect.
- Honestly, I am more freaked out by pro skaters who play golf.
- Doug Brown isn't religious, but he writes like he is the second coming.
- Some religious pros are your favorite skaters
- Some atheist pros are your favorite skaters.
- I've met pros who are totally idolised in the 'cool' camp who are low-key religious.
- I've met pros who are bragging about Jesus and they are far from 'religious'

Skateboarding is religions. There are many gods in skateboarding. Pray to the kickflips god and get that kickflips. Only you will make you do that kickflips you young god. Go get it.

[Crusty Grundle]

A buddy of mine told me this story... He was at the Vans Park watching the action and he saw Hosoi skating. Being a fan of Hosoi, he was pretty stoked. Apparently, Hosoi noticed him and walked over to him and started a conversation. I don't remember everything my buddy said about the conversation but at one point Hosoi asked him if he had "heard the good news?" At that point the whole conversation turned into a preachy sermon and my friend got so bummed. I always thought that was kinda funny.

[dustyassrocketswitchv]

stop bumping this dog shit thread. Keep your religion away from skating, even satanism in skateboarding is cheesy

[Lenny the Fatface]

My father in law has a set of corny Christian related dad jokes he fires off in crowded public places, his two favorite:

How did the priest make holy water? He boiled the hell out of it!

And

The Bible says the husband is supposed to  make coffee for his wife. You know where it says that? In Hebrews!


Yea he doesn’t skate.

[StillTryin]

Not sure if it makes a pro fully lame, but it increases the lameness for sure. So if a pro is already quite lame, being religious on top of it will seal the deal for me.

I don't really care for satanism in skating either. Difference is pentagrams and 666 whatever is edgy provocative semi self-aware skate-and-destroy type humor, and Reliance Skateboards are actually skating for the Jeez.

No kid wearing a pentagram thrasher shirt will come up to you and preach at the park, so satan gets a pass even though I don't go for that shit.
