    Mano y mano.
    Write him a letter expressing your concerns. I'm pretty sure if god was offended, he would take action.

    Not everybody believes in your mythology. Don't buy his stuff if you don't like his beliefs, but the first amendment protects his right to say it. If you don't believe that, then you're no better than the people who say we don't have the right to keep and bear arms.

    I'm pretty sure he DOES believe in God. If not, it is stupid to say "dirty."

    EDIT: Apparently the autocensor doesn't like GD either.

    And some people can make a point without insulting another's beliefs.

    It simply requires intelligence, and maturity.

    Two traits which might also cause someone to notice the OP simply wondered whether it was necessary to curse at his God, not that he was asking that the man somehow did not possess the right to do so.

    But then noticing that would not have allowed a childish cheapshot I suppose.

    Better to be silent and thought a fool....

    Call me a believer in myths, if you will. Call me superstitious, if you will. I really don't care about what you believe, any more than you care about what I believe. I have never tried to cram my beliefs down anybody's throat, and have shown respect for the beliefs of others, or the lack thereof. I do not, however, particularly care to be ridiculed for my own beliefs.

    That said, I am as profane as anybody, and more so than a lot of people. What the man said, causes no offense to me, just seems like he made his views on paypal abundantly clear, with no chance of even the most ignorant of people misunderstanding him. Words are communication. He communicated his position quite clearly.

    Some folks are too easily offended.

    Personally though, I don't cuss when I write....I believe it makes me appear ignorant.

    It makes for good space filler when yelling though! [;)]

    Or people who never fail to poke someone in the eye for no good reason? Just 'cause you have a right to say something, doesn't nescessarily make it a good idea.

    Had he actually violated his free speech rights it would make great sense. He simply disagreed with the way in which the statement was made, which is his right. Right?[;)]

    Criticizing? Nothing. Abridging or censoring? Everything. Unfortunately, it only applies to government and makes no prohibition for backward individuals.

    Heh heh, looks like you are the one wanting government to protect your ability to say whatever you want....by wanting constitutional (governmental)limitations to someone else's freedom to make choices in their life.

    Interesting approach.

    [;)]


    Not at all. Government needs legal restrictions on it to protect peoples and citizens rights. What is unfortunate is that people, under no such restrictions, often fail to acknowledge other peoples rights. It's a human failing brought about by limited social contact, lack of empathy, and upbringing that is lacking. Kind of like geeks and serial killers.

    LOL,, Bible Thumpers always tickle me [:)], Theirs is one of the newest religions in history with a vast amount of it copied straight from Greek myths yet let someone disagree and the one disagreeing is always the one being disrespectful. By the way, in siminary school they teach using GD is not a slam on God, it is in effect asking God to do something,, You have to reverse it to where its said DG to be cursing the Lord. You will hear sermons where it is said God D'md something to hell or cast it out,

    The "free speech" people need to remember that GB is private property. No right of free speech on private property, and I highly doubt the Cap'n wants to see any vulgar/foul wording in an auction.

    I consider it mindless stupidity, crossbred with a computer keyboard, when someone manufactures outrage over some basic violation of human rights, when no one suggested any such thing.

    Either show where the OP did anything other than state his dislike of the manner of expression chosen by the seller in the ad (which I believe is HIS right), or admit you are unable to communicate without hyperbolic nonsense.

    My guess as to your actual age vs level of displayed maturity keeps getting lower.

    He says UPS gives bad prices on their website and yet paypal charges his .35 cents and he curses the Lord for it and refuses to use them...

    I think he is confused. The reason the prices on UPS website are "incorrect" is because you can't get a ship quote for ORMD unless you have an account.

    Just like Fedex.

    Well, I see this going south. The mans wording did not offend me at all, but I expect there were better ways of phrasing it. As for the rest, both sides, I think there is a lot of underwear wadded up in some folks cracks.

    Both sides-If this is what you truly believe, why get your shorts in a knot over somebody else's opinion? As Shakespeare observed, " Me thinks the lady doth protest too much"

    Believe what you will. Let me do the same. Believers are either going to go to heaven, or become worm dirt. Non believers are either going to hell, or become worm dirt. Reckon that means we'll all know for sure someday, or just be worm dirt.
