"I think you have a highly specialized deffinition of religion that suits you personally in that it allows you to think you're not a part of it."
-Me

"I guess that's how one might see it from the outside looking in."
-Nalds
Now you're pulling a Vinth. In the English language, words have agreed upon meanings meanings. You are choosing to use the word 'religion' to describe things other than your personal relationship with God. That's got nothing to do with 'outside' or 'inside', it has to do with you attempting to bend language to suit yoiur needs, which is purely semantic and foolish. You define yourself as rejecting 'religion' and cling to to that deffinition without realising you misused the word.

I understand what your saying. You feel your one on one relationship is divinely inspired, it's relationship with Dogma is causal, and that your direct relationship supercedes any collective traditions even if they coincide with your beliefs. I get that. Your quarrel is with the dictionary.

I think your need to see my asking that you respect the meaning of word as hate is fairly unchristian. I try, in my way, to get you to express yourself more clearly. Clear expression is worthy goal.

For instance:

" There are no words to describe how stupid that is. Especially since you have done it yourself, Max."
Naldo

Honestly, sincerely, I have no idea what you're getting at with this two sentence structure. Especially since I've done what? Done unto others? Disocvered there are no words to describe? Used words to describe 5that which there are no words to describe?

I find your desire to see me as hateful and/or hating curious. I would be interested to see evidence, and iof a slightly better quality than your previous, absurd contention that I 'hate' what America stands for. I can quote things you've said that are full of hate, particularly your desire to see more scoff laws shot in the face with rubber bullets.

I think there is a measure of covenience in you seeing hatred in me.

Vinth sees the refelction of his own seething hatreds when he looks at me. Is that your explanation?
