Poker News: internet poker rigged

Wow, Dj! You must do one hell of a lot of forum reading!!! You went back nearly a year to dig this one up???? You know what's allways been one of my favorite sayings? Its allways surprising what Christians will do for a lie that others wont do for the truth. Now, does that sting you a little bit? Because, I mean no disrespect at all, of course. Im just talking about all of the senseless murders, rapes, and brainwashing. You probably think I'm talking about the "others", when Im actually talking about Christians. Yeah, see if you and probably the majority of "believers" out there really bothered to study history and actually take in all of the FACTS that have occured throughout DOCUMENTED history, there would be a lot less confused masses in this world. But, I guess the TRUTH will be a long time coming for this society of mindless sheep.

Watch that and maybe, just maybe, you might start thinking about things a bit more, instead of just blindly "believing". Or maybe you are too far gone, like so many.

First off if you read the original post he was actually defending that internet poker isnt rigged and tied God into it.

For the fact about "Christians" not being able to gamble by God, that information is wrong.

Nowhere in the bible doest it say anything about christians not being able to gamble. I would agree if you put it before family or before God then it becomes a problem but gambling in and of itself is not considered sin unless it is viewed by sin by the person doing it.

Paul tells us in the new testament that one being in grace and in Christ Jesus can do all things. He goes on to say though that not all things are beneficial and you do not want to cause yourself to sin or put a stumbling block before your brother to lead him into sin.

And on a last note, im catholic and our church actually just held a no limit tournement. I think alot of "christians" today missrepresent what Jesus actually taught and they try to set new standards that really have no reason to be set.

And as far as this thread being deleted because its talking about God, well I think that would be wrong. God created the felt your playing on and the cards your playing to take down pots ( or not take down pots : )

What a ripoff!!

I thought there was finally proof online poker was rigged.

Can't we go back to bashing Canadians?!?

Can we bash religious Canadians?

No not really, someone just nuke this whole thread. Then salt the ground so threads like this won't grow back again.

Seiously the Bible does not condemn gambing. There is one mention of the Roman soldiers casting lots for Jesus' cloak. So if Romans are bad, then gambling must be bad. Besides that most arguments involve the assumption that gambling is not "honest work" or must involve cheating or is a get rich quick scheme, all things which ARE condemned in the Bible. (Well, its work the way that I play it.)

On the flip side there are at least a half-dozen instances in which people of good standing drew lots to make major decisions - leaving it to chance or perhaps God's will.

Acts 1::24-26

And they prayed, and said, Thou, Lord, which knowest the hearts of all men, shew whether of these two thou hast chosen. That he may take part of this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas by transgression fell, that he might go to his own place. And they gave forth their lots; and the lot fell upon Matthias; and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.

So they trusted God to show them through a game of chance which of them should become an apostle following the ascendance of Jesus - talk about playing for high-stakes

you guuyz ar etarded.

No, idiot, I'm saying that the movie's existence is ironic, in that it is the thing it condemns.

No, the fact that it's unintentional is what makes it funny (and stupid). Much like your inability to understand a simple word like "ironic" is what makes you funny and stupid.

Only to brain dead chimps with the reading abilities of a 4 year old.

He supposedly died more then once???

No.

Oh, so what you're saying is you think it's better that someone else take his kid's college money? Because that's what's going to happen if you don't take it.

We all know it; if the guy's a degen, he will lose all his money - the only question is who's going to end up with it.

And if your god is infinitely wise and omniscient, surely he knows the laws of probability too, and has already come to the same conclusion. So why would your god want someone else to have that money, while barring you from reaching up and taking money that is being freely and willingly thrown away? Does he hate you or something?

So, then, if I'm reading this right, your god only lets you get money you work hard for and use skill to acquire. So if it's fun or easy, or even just plain lucky, your god doesn't let you earn money off of it? Why not? He sounds like a real ***hole to me.

You see, the problem with your belief system is that you set up god and god's laws in such a way as to make him either a) cruel and hateful of humanity or b) an irrational control freak. Which I know is not what the Bible says about God... so you should ask yourself why your beliefs seem to say that about Him. After all, my vision of someone's who's kind, loving and compassionate does not involve a guy who smacks me around for finding a $20 on the street, because I lucked into it, rather than working hard for it...

Ummm, replace the word movie with "The bible" and you will be speaking with conviction! Its called history...not fairy tales made up by humans about what happens to our "soul" when we die. And if you are a "believer" than you are also one living 1500 years in the past, when fairy tales ruled the day.

Cause the devil don't like em, dat's why!

There are so many things wrong with this latest post in, "The chronicals of an idiot," I offer no rebuttal. None needed.

Anyone reading this thread with even the slightest bit of an education Im sure can understand why I cannot go on with this any longer. I'm mearly wasting my time trying to educate one who either does not want the education, or is mearly to simple to understand it.

Next time your in a situation like that again, try using proper English and grammar. It goes a long way in conveying your ideas to others.

Simply using the word, fallacy, would have been a much better choice for you.

And, I hope one day you truely understand what the words, irony, and ironic actually mean and learn how to use them in a sentence intelligently.

I spotted three grammatical / spelling errors. Anyone found more?

Why are you even still here? Didn't you promise to **** off now that you've gone bust?

If you don't like it, don't read it - it was a worthless rigged thread anyway. And, I'd like to point out, the religious discussion is not causing any problems. The only problems in this thread have been caused by some idiot's inability to define "irony" and now, you.

You're an idiot. Do Christianity a favor and convert to some other religion.

How asinine. There's no Biblical condemnation of gambling anyway, just like there's nothing Biblically wrong with most of the things "Christians" get hung up about. Including, but not limited to: drug use, premarital sex, gay sex and/or fun in general.

But whatever, far be it from me to point out that your notions of God and Christianity are stuck 1500 years in the past... just don't go preaching about it until you have half a clue, please. It makes the rest of us look bad by association.

What I want to know is if we are all GODS children ,what makes JESUS so G/D special ? 8) 8)

Oh please. I've wiped my ass with smarter things than that... "movie." Anyone who actually believes any of that tripe is... well, blindly following a bunch of made up, moronic drivel.

Oh, look.... irony.

He's NOT the messiah, he's a very naughty boy.

didnt mean to come off that way.....sorry about that bro.......have a good christmas.......

I'd ask if you're really that stupid, but based on your rabid support of that trash, it's clear you are.

The irony is that you'd have to be a gullible moron with brain damage, living under a rock to actually believe what that movie is preaching... and it's preaching about how these other people are gullible fools for believing in something with no proof.

Grow a ****ing brain before you try to participate in a debate, dumbass. That you could be accusing someone else of stupidity without being able to spot a textbook example of irony is truly painful. You lot are just as bad as the 9/11 conspiracy bunch, only dumber, because you're trying to disprove something that cannot be rationally examined, let alone proven or disproven.

Look, instead of giving everyone here headaches with your disjointed and fallacious ramblings, just go get your bloody GED already, enroll in some community college and give some poor philosophy 101 prof a brain aneurysm.

LoL now your trying to change what you typed, which was obviously not geared towards the movie

So, by saying, "Oh look...irony.", your trying to imply that the movie is full of irony

I·ro·ny1 /ˈaɪrəni, ˈaɪər-/ Pronunciation Key - Show Spelled Pronunciation[ahy-ruh-nee, ahy-er-] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation

–noun, plural -nies.

1. the use of words to convey a meaning that is the opposite of its literal meaning: the irony of her reply, “How nice!” when I said I had to work all weekend.

2. Literature. a. a technique of indicating, as through character or plot development, an intention or attitude opposite to that which is actually or ostensibly stated.

b. (esp. in contemporary writing) a manner of organizing a work so as to give full expression to contradictory or complementary impulses, attitudes, etc., esp. as a means of indicating detachment from a subject, theme, or emotion.

So, you think that the developers of the movie Zeitgeist made the movie with the intention of irony??? That everything that they said actually meant the opposite????

Dude your really, really making yourself look less and less intelligent with each post you make...

But, if you want to keep it going, im more than game.

Or better yet just go away and stay away.

Just to help your little brain along, obviously it needs it. This is a definition of the noun irony.

6. the incongruity of this.

7. an objectively sardonic style of speech or writing.

8. an objectively or humorously sardonic utterance, disposition, quality, etc.

Now having read that do you understand what irony is??

Hmmm, let me dumb it down a bit more for you.

Irony is saying something and implying the opposite of what you said. I dont think the Zeitgeist movie is stating what it states, and meaning the opposite, is it? I didn't think so.

I think what your little brain is trying to imply is that you would need to be gullible to believe in a story written by men 1500 years ago who also believed in possesion, ghost, demons, and evil spirits. Ohh what do you know I just made a real statement chock full of irony. You see I said something and meant the opposite...heh...that's irony

Get it??

Now if you would have said something like, "Oh look, how ironic"

Then you would have been making a proper statement. Because there is a difference between stating something as being ironic, and something having irony. I would post the definition for both words, but i'll leave that up to you, little brain. You do know how to look a word up dont you?

Oh, and thanks for clearly proving yourself the idiot. Anything else you would like a lesson on? Time for school children, don't forget your books!!
