You can't be too Christian. That's like being too happy.

i mean say what you will about jihad or mormonism, at least they keep people busy and are a way of organizing society. a lot of westerners today are underemployed and fritting away their time on the dole or through playing video games.

but in radical islam? it's all jihad all the time.

Obviously, people have perverted Jesus's teachings, but at the core of western civ is individualism and self-sacrifice.

For baptisms for the dead all you need is a name though? I have no idea what SD is talking about. Like it's done in a temple in a baptismal font not in the forest with a spray bottle of holy water

The Mormons should relocate to Europe, I hear tell the number of people dying there has increased substantially over the last few years for some reason.

I remember this episode of 24 I saw where Jack Bauer's team was holding a terrorist in containment and were trying to coax information out of him. The terrorist wasn't budging so the FBI operatives or whatever roll in a television screen and it cuts to live video feed of Jack Bauer in some hut in the middle of the desert and he and a couple marines are holding the entire guys family at gun point.

They then go down the line and summarily execute each member of this guy's family starting with his wife and then the oldest child etc.
I believe they get down to the last child, a young kid. The terrorist is currently sobbing and cursing Jack Bauer and America and what not and then he breaks hard.

Suddenly the background image of the inside of the hut flickers and Jack Bauer reveals that the entire background and executions were all done with CGI and that the family is being safely held at a detention facility or something.

The point I wanted to make is that we should be using CGI to stage executions of terrorists families.

A) What a cop-out bunch of pussies to not have the balls to make that legit instead of CGI
B) Real terrorists wouldn't break over that, if anything, you'd make them even more resistant to tell you anything
