@thatonepony Oh boy, you simple-minded misanthropes. I hope that one day, you'll see how wrong you've been. Besides, being a misanthrope is FAR too mainstream.

@ovation Saw yer post about death threats from a Christian..... that's terrible. Unfortunately there are a select few that give a negative impression of a whole kind.... even a few far out whacked bronies can give teh world a negative impression as to what we do :)
-
@faithwalker Unfortunately, you're right. And those bronies tend to be the more vocal of the group, thus presenting both the media and the public with a different impression.
-
@faithwalker wow, rationalism
-
@ovation i'm still barely out of the bisexual closet
-
@shadowlight Well congratulations on coming out. It's almost never an easy thing to do.
-
@ovation not necessarily...this is the first time i've ever mentioned it to anyone
-
@ovation but thanks anyway
-
@shadowlight Well then, EXTRA congratulations. It honestly took me a while to start telling people I barely knew.
-
@shadowlight Or, come to think of it, even people I knew very well.
-
@ovation i guess i find it easier since the internet is almost anonymous
-
@shadowlight is it such a bad thing? I'm not afraid to admit I'm Christian, even representing with cutie mark ;) lol.... but i read the links @ovation sent, it's sad.... I know a lot of Christians that do unfortunately make human mistakes like anyone. And @ovation has anotehr opint.... it's the worst ones that are the loudest and draw attention.... *sigh*
-
@faithwalker Of course, it's not just Christians. Atheists/Agnostics/Pretty much everyone involved deserves to share the blame for things like this.
-
@faithwalker i know, i try my best to respect all faiths and beliefs unless people intentionally cause harm using them as an excuse
-
@thatonepony I just say, "I don't hate you because you're a(n) [INSERT RELIGION HERE]. I hate you because you're an idiot.
-
@thatonepony Can you read my mind or something?
-
@thatonepony True, but I wouldn't consider myself a pessimist. I'm more of a cynic and/or anti-humanist.
-
@thatonepony But "Anti-Humanist" sounds cooler.
-
@thatonepony Humanism is an approach in study, philosophy, world view or practice that focuses on human values and concerns. In other words it is an outlook or system of thought attaching prime importance to human rather than divine or supernatural matters. - Wikipedia
-
@thatonepony And you, (And anyone else) is free to define me as such. I will continue referring to myself as an Anti-Humanist until I feel like calling myself something else. That's the way people define themselves.
