Prayers for Bobby

It's a book and now a movie.

Anyone read/heard of the book, or interested in it?

whats it about?

God wrote:whats it about?

Apparently, a suicide. This really devout Christian woman raises her son to be really religious like her, but he sorta comes out of the closet later, and end up killing himself. At least, that's what I got from the summary on IMDB.

how depressing...

Indeed. Life's like that, though... I guarantee that, or similar events, have occured several times before in real life.

The world is built on stereotypes because a society is defined by its conformity.

YOR WORDS ARE TOO LONG, AND I HATE THAT SMILE.

Meh, I love it when super religious people have gay kids, which shows that somewhere, a God is laghting at them.

If there was a god, it would be a benevolent being, not some kind of immature douche like what you just described.

Thats why there must be more then one.

There aren't any, though, and I'd much rather be monotheistic than polytheistic if I was religious.

Even a lot of forms of Paganism only have one god, well goddess, and every other "god" is just a representation of specific duties she must carry out.

I'm not going to tell you whats wrong or right, so please don't do that to me.

If you're going to enter into a religious debate, don't expect people not to state their beliefs as absolutes.

I wasn't getting into one, only stating the lulz of gays born to to Christ lovers.

You mentioned gods.

That always sparks religious talk.

... it is an lulz when christians get gay children... but not if the child commits suicide...


I tend to agree with PP. If god existed he wouldn't be such a pompous immature jack ass.

Im not sure what category I fall in to here: atheist, agnostic or something that doesnt even have a label...

I think of god as more of an energy then a contious being that looks like humans. I think of the different gods as the different types of energy god is made out of. So this kinda makes me everything. There is many gods, there is only one, and there is none all at once. In this sence the christian god would be the Hitler energy of god XDDD

Oh no, someone killing them thems is never funny.

Other then Hitler. That was the most funny thing of all time.

And no a jack-ass...Some one with a sence of whats funny.

How come someone always has to come twist up a thread into something completely stupid?

I guess I'll join, for lack of anything better to do.

You can't say for sure that God would be so righteous if he exists, since you never met him. That's like saying the new kid in town is a fag when you've only ever heard rumors.

Paganism is entirely polytheistic, but the illusion of monotheism is created from the fact that prayer leads to the worshiper being named one or two specific gods/goddesses to worship. It's kinda like match-making. They just find the right deity for them.

Hitler was an incredible man. Greatest orator of all time, and did amazing things for his country. Sadly, he went about it the wrong way and ended up having to die.

No, Paganism covers a wide range of beliefs, and, believe me, MANY belief systems in Paganism only go on one god/dess.

Don't know if I would say greatest orator, but his ability to manipulate the people into following him through speeches was quite impressive.

Still doesn't change the fact that he had no regard for other nations and scapegoated an entire group of people, though. I'm sure even Bin Laden has certain good qualities to him, doesn't make him any less of a cock. Placing troops in Russia despite an agreement with larger douchebag Stalin to not provoke one another, charging through a neutral nation to attack France despite the entire modern world agreeing that during wartime, neutral nations must, you know, remain NEUTRAL, the list goes on for quite a while, but tl;dr isn't my thing. It was clear he was having delusions of grandeur after he reformed Germany in an impressive amount of time. He could have stopped, but he chose to try to take over all over Europe, and it's hard to justify that action.

....The fact that shikis going with me proves soemthing.

I'm not sure what, but I /think/ i'm right.

Seeing as after Europe, why not go to Asia? Or Africa?

Or The Americas?

I'm not saying he wasn't great at giving speechs, but he's an Evil man.

Was there any denial of Hitler being a douche?

Oh, also, Hitler wouldn't take over the Americas, considering that is an overseas battle, and look at what happened when a set of peoples who had an extreme advantage over us tried.

It wouldn't be a battle he could win.


(By the way, no one cares about Africa, or South America, so w/e)

That's quite a wtf statement right there... Worthy of a swift kick to the nuts.

Ya, there's ton of oil and gold and diamonds in Africa.

So much, that with it, you could build an even bigger army, and take over SA, then moving on the NA.
