Yes I speak what I hold true as well - but I never use an insulting tone or name-calling towards any figure that's revered by any religious group - instead I try to show some respect and tact when discussing a topic that's sensitive to many. That's honestly one of the things I've found different about many devout Christians versus those of other faiths - they don't seem to think there's anything un-Christian about using an insulting tone towards whoever does not believe what they do, calling names or profane words to others' prophets, or telling them "you're going to hell!" etc. Just doesn't give a great image overall of the faith when you guys do that.
Not only that but its a well known fact that anyone who prefers a V6 version of a sports car due to its better mpg than a V8 must have difficulty affording the car in the first place lol.
J/K - and jokes aside who knows how much longer V8's will even leave with the pressures of improving mpg.
I could care less about an "insulting tone" and more about what the figurehead of a faith is all about and how they lived their life. You really should not go there for as demonstrated in that thread, I pointed it out about several such men. Respect is not given just "because", but rather when it is deserved. I do not think any of the abysmally immoral men I pointed out deserves respect. Jesus of Nazareth? Yes. Those other common, base men? No freaking way. Just because you founded a faith, a religion if you will does not make you worthy of respect. What you did in life, especially towards your fellow man (and woman) is what counts. Religious dogma is nothing. Enough.
Now then...
You are probably correct about the monetary aspect, sir , and I find no animosity in your words but rather your honest opinion. I am far from wealthy and I doubt I could afford the fuel to run a V8 anything. They are great machines, worthy of admiration and pure unadulterated car lust and envy! Speaking of envy.
I see you are a fan of Corvettes? I am unfortunately somewhat handicapped (or as the pussy liberals might have us say, "handicapable"?
) and can not get out of a 'Vette on my own and if envy is truly a sin, then I am sinning when I envy you your choice in fine Amurican Muscle Cars.
