I'm afraid I can no longer be a part of DU and its corruption

[derbstyron]

It came to me in a vision last night: it is my purpose, responsibility and duty to serve he who gives us life: our Father who Art in Heaven. An angel himself was sent to console me and show me the error of my ways.
I think of the childern, little lives that could have marched in step with God, that I allowed to be aborted, destroyed before they could enter our world and know his grace.
I think of the Sodom that has become our planet. The thought that I would allow homosexuals to spread their lifystyle, their corruption. They seek to defile our beautiful ideal of marriage, that most holy of examples of our connection with our true Father. I think of my daughter, in school, who they will try to turn to their evil, hedonistic lifestyle if they should be allowed to teach.
I think of the Angel saying that God will forgive me for my vote for John Kerry, if I will only see the error of my ways. I have done so. My calling is to leave and serve God with all of my love. I shall now enter the priesthood.
I will pray for you. My life is filled with love and hope for you. May you, too, see the error of your ways. May God have mercy on your soul.

God Bless You,
Darby T.

1. Bye Darby

See you in hell!

[derbstyron]

3. What I find chilling is that some people actually believe this shit. n/t

[meegbear]

6. LOL

[Goathead]

42. Damn, I been hypnotized!

You had me there for a second!

[hyphenate]

54. Disturbing, isn't it?

My best friend, whom I love dearly, has fallen for all that shit. She said it's okay for gay people to live together, but they can't have sex. She is also wrapped up in a whole bunch of crap about all the secret societies ruling the world, and that nothing goes on without the approval of groups like the Illuminati, the Masons, and so on and so forth. She also said that Saddam Hussein found and started to dig up the original Hanging Gardens of Babylon, and it was partly the reason why the chimp had to bring him down. Oh yeah--and if ANYONE goes against Israel, they are devils and need to be killed. And then there is the "secret list" of Popes that shows there are only going to be two more after JPII dies. After that, it's supposed to be Armageddon.

[derbstyron]

68. Sorry.

Perhaps she will come back around. Such things usually dissipate with education!

[OldLeftieLawyer]

80. Hey

Do you think your friend would like to buy a nice black "Sodom Is Here" sweatshirt?

I'm thinking of going into business.

[ooglymoogly]

34. bye bye zell...i mean darby

don't let the door hit you on the way out...watch out for those angels flopping around over your head they tend to get caught in swinging flip flopping doors...now that you have shown your duplicity you might want to learn what democrats are all about, but then i guess you never cared.. though you might find you were never a democrat at all...just another hypocrite

[Donkeyboy75]

2. Dad does Art?

What kind? I'm partial to sculpture, myself.

But your post confuses me. I thought he did his Art in the garage.

[derbstyron]

17. Oh my, uh, God. I'm sooo embarassed. I JUST got that. =(

Hanging head in shame and slinking away :)

[RC]

4. This is a joke correct?

Or did you get you BB's mixed up?

[derbstyron]

5. Might as well sign up before I get drafted...so to speak. :) n/t

[Sporadicus]

7. Are You Sure It Was an Angel?

and not that second helping of pumpkin pie giving you nightmares?

[derbstyron]

9. hee hee. n/t

[RaleighNCDUer]

30. "you could be a blot of mustard, an undigested bit of cheese" n/t

[MatrixEscape]

8. Be more concerned with the

error of your own ways. That is all I ask.

This is still America and tagging people as scapegoats is Theocratic. Projecting outwards does not sound like salvation to me.

Don't burn too many people in one day when your time comes. And the goose-step for God is not the march in fashion for many of us or our children.

"Get ye WISDOM!"

(ah, since everyone is confused if that was a joke, I am going to add that I assumed that and responded in kind)

[HysteryDiagnosis]

10. I shall now enter the priesthood.

Be careful with the little boys... they are his favorites you know. Think long and hard before you make the jump.... it could be a mistake.

[r_u_stuck2]

24. Choice of words

"Think long and hard before you "

Maybe I just have a dirty mind, but I think in context with the "little boys" comment you might want to consider using a different set of words.:evilgrin:

[HysteryDiagnosis]

32. Advice taken.. will change that to "think for a proper amount of time" n/t

11. Geezzz,,,,,

I just woke up,,,,
Maybe I should go back to be ??
...bed

:shrug:

geezzz,,, can't even spell bed right yet
:(

[derbstyron]

12. Dumb question

I am, for the most part, computer illiterate. How do you get those little...I don't even know what they are called: that little guy with the moving hands.

I would like to be able to use them in my posts.

[DeepGreen]

15. When you do your post

just above the subject box is a smilies lookup table. Click on that
and choose the smilie you want. The little guy you refer to is
called : shrug :.

You don't need to use this, but this is the link to the
list of smilies...

[derbstyron]

22. Thanks

I just found it.

woo hoo !!!!:bounce:

:yourock:

[DeepGreen]

23. Cool !

:)

[Kire]

18. for somebody who "can no longer be a part of", you sure do stick around

I checked your other posts, honestly, this whole pro-life conversion seems out of place.

That coupled with your tag line, and all of the other sarcastic comments you posted in this thread, I grow suspicious that your original post is sincere.

So the question remains, WTF?

[derbstyron]

21. Just trying to lighten the mood.

Sorry if I offended you.

[Kire]

48. actually, I'm not offended

i'm really confused, though

[derbstyron]

51. What are you confused about?

I wasn't being serious if that's what you are wondering.

I tend to get down a lot because of health issues. And many people on DU make me laugh out loud with their responses and some threads (the ask me anythings?). I figured I would get some funny responses and I did. It helped to lighten my mood and make me smile for just a couple of hours. That was all I was asking.

For what's it worth: I knew some people wouldn't get it. Mainly, for two reasons:

1) I'm new here (relatively) and most people probably haven't figured me out yet. And some are probably still leery and untrustworth (Freeper?).

The more Chilling...

2) I used some of the right wing freaks talking points and beliefs. Its like with Ann Coulter. I know she says things just to shock and sell books. But people DO believe all these sorts of things.

And they vote! :scared:

[Kire]

53. you explained it

I thought you were serious.

[derbstyron]

63. Sorry

Didn't mean to creep you out.

Chilling stuff, isn't it?

[serryjw]

74. Hey even I was WORRIED.........

They have gotten to 50 million people..I was hoping you didn't have your wine spiked with Kool-Aid at Thanksgiving:puke:.......Welcome back!

[achtung_circus]

39. You can also use these...

http://www.lions.org.uk/messageboard/smilies2.htm

and smilies from a large variety of other places.

[FizzFuzz]

77. confused here....how come you dont know how to use the smiley

thingies in this thread, but you knew how to use them in your previous thread of several weeks ago, asking for help and support?

Just wondering, not meaning to be snarky although I'm afraid this probably sounds like it.

[derbstyron]

79. Not being snarky

Actually, I found your question amusing. Anything that brings a smile to my face!

As for the answer, I would imagine that you only saw a happy or sad face because you can do that with the keyboard. You know the standard make a happy or sad face with the lines.

I didn't learn how to work the others till now.

I said it before and I'll say it again (Not you): people need to lighten up. Anyone who gets their feelings hurt by a post from someone they have never met strikes me as strange. But maybe its just me.

Like your name, "Fizzfuzz".

see: :hi: now I know!

[FizzFuzz]

81. your answer totally resolved my question!!

:hi:

Thanks! and btw...FizzFuzz, I like it too. :D Its cat related!

Discussion Boards can be a great place to learn how to speak up strongly for one's opinions, accept other's views, and how to roll with the punches when you get disagreed with.

13. Make sure you snake bite kit is in good order!

Gawd has a new Buick waiting for you I'm sure!

Who knew?

[RaleighNCDUer]

31. Yeah, but you get stuck paying the taxes on it. n/t

[ooglymoogly]

36. oh lo-ard won't cha ba me a mursaydeez binz

[Hubert Flottz]

45. Did you also know that Gawd's name is Andy?

Andy walks with me;
Andy talks with me;
Andy tells me I am his own!

[nine23]

14. Arrivederci

And please, don't pray for me. Honest. There's no need. I mean it. Please. I find the very idea just plain creepy.

[fleabert]

52. that bugs me too...why is that so creepy?

I have asked people not to say that to me, it seems so condecending and odd, but then I get painted as unappreciative or some shit like that. Like I should thank someone for praying for me when i didn't ask them to, or they prayed for something about me that I don't agree with?

Grrrr. it gets my pet goat.

[Dancer]

16. " I shall now enter the priesthood."

lol!

It's been forty five minutes. Are we there yet?

[KG]

19. were you on psychotropic drugs when this vision occured?

if so, where can i score some? :)

[derbstyron]

20. Well...actually. If you've seen some other posts

I'm quite "unstable".
No better way to be. :)

[Lost4words]

25. We graciously accept your membership termination.

you poor disillusioned person.

[mutius]

27. The Bible says

That all liars shall have their part in the lake of fire. St. Matthew 26 Jesus said, for I was an hungered and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: Naked and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison,and ye came unto me. Then shall the Bush administration say, Lord when saw we thee an hungered, (the unemployed) and feed thee? or thirsty and gave thee drink?
When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in (the poor that didn't count) or naked and clothed thee?
Or when saw thee a sick, ( no health coverage) or in prison ( the patriot act) and came unto thee?
And the King (Jesus) shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me. And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.
Bush administration righteous? tell me another one.

28. Blessed are those who see the light!

Shop, oh enlightened one, shop for your very soul.

[BlueJazz]

29. Have no fear. 2 hundred more posts and you'll be able to....

...join Pat Robberson and the gang and sing his praises for 100 glorious posts. :)

[Deja Q]

35. LOL. But it's sad that a donater would pull this sort of stunt and forget

to write </sarcasm> at the end.


I'm hoping that person was trying to make a funny. But if not, good riddance.

[derbstyron]

40. Maybe it's just me

But if I have to spell out that its <sarcasm> doesn't that defeat the whole purpose?

[qnr]

43. Unfortunately, you do. Many people hoping to disrupt would say

exactly what you said. The "I've been a Democrat all my life, but...." routine. I had a feeling you were joking, but it wasn't obvious until you replied the the first person to reply to you. :)

[derbstyron]

47. Actually

That's the scary part, I suppose. I used (some people's) talking points. The freaky right wing set.

I was actually going to post this on the freeper website but I thought the "Welcome," and "Glad your here" responses would make me vomit.

It's like Ann Coulter. I know that she just says stuff to shock and sell books. But there are people who think and believe what she says.

Creepy.
:scared:

[Deja Q]

60. No. It ensures you don't give the wrong impression. Unlike

spoken speech, where there is clear inflection, written text is much more difficult to add inflection to. You sounded serious, and I saw no hint of sarcasm.

[derbstyron]

66. Sarcasm:

A form of wit that is marked by the use of sarcastic language and is intended to make its victim the butt of contempt or ridicule.

A keen, reproachful expression; a satirical remark uttered with some degree of scorn or contempt; a taunt; a gibe; a cutting jest.

Although, I DO understand that such things are difficult to read when dealing only with written words. I suppose its a matter of context. Of which, here, of course, there was none.

[Whoa_Nelly]

37. Could this be reposted

in some ancient tongue spoken at the last revival meeting?
thanks in advance </sarasm>

I've always wanted to say that, and then use the scared smiley.

Thanks for giving me the opportunity.

[Whoa_Nelly]

41. Am (not) afraid can no longer be a part of Jesus and God corruption

It came to me like a fryin' pan hittin' me upside the head; The whole idea of religion is just mind control of the masses.

Thank you Holy Grail O'Frying Pan for helping me to see the light! (And for helping me to distinguish it from the cartoon stars circling my head!)

Long will I sing the praises of the Cast Iron Skillet!

[derbstyron]

44. LOL

:headbang:

[LSK]

46. dont forget to join the NRA and get Support our Troops stickers.

All true christians love guns and war afterall. ;)

[FuzzySlippers]

49. You totally had me going for a moment.

This is what you need.:spank:

[Baja Margie]

50. Say hello to Father Malachi Martin for me !

Et cum Spiritu tuo.

[shesemsmom]

59. ME TOO

I was fixing to loss it... then I realized what was happening and really lost it

[OldEurope]

55. You could have warned us. I nearly ruined my notebook,

when I started to puke.

:toast:

[Scrooge]

56. hi!

Oh man, don't scare me like that!! Im brand new here, and my heart just sunk when I saw your subject line! I was so hoping to enjoy being here for a long time, and now that I see the great humor you all have.. Im breathing a sigh of relief. Thanks for the smiles!

[shesemsmom]

58. Welcome to DU

it has it's moments lol

[shesemsmom]

57. Thank God

some one has answered the Pope's calling to enter the priesthood. Dear lord, we surly are running out of kid chasing priests.

[Politicub]

61. Oh yeah?

Well, I had a vision last night, too, and it trumps yours'.

The baby Jesus himself came to me and said, "Lo -- that fruit of solemn vines doth dot itself with butter. And when the honeybee fertilizes its heathen ass, then the third kingdom of Microsoft will rule."

[derbstyron]

64. Maybe it just me

But don't they already? :cry:

[GingerSnaps]

62. I remember one of your first message threads

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=105&topic_id=1999519

How did you manage to stay so long around us sinners :eyes: You had so many ailments that it sounded like you were making fun of us having a good heart when someone is down and I kind of called you on it didn't I?


Good Luck!

[derbstyron]

67. I don't understand this

Or have any idea what I have been "called on"

The point of my attack, I thought, fairly obvious. Most people got it. Read above.

I make fun of no one who supports me, offers support or guidance for my "many ailments".

[GingerSnaps]

82. Eyes Roll

Joke LOL :evilgrin:

[derbstyron]

85. Me so confused???

What's a joke? The first post? The second?
Alright, I admit it. I'm dense! :shrug:

[charlyvi]

69. You don't seem to recognize satire when you read it.

For having a good heart, that's not a very good hearted post. Kind of called you on it, didn't I?

[shanti]

what the hell...

well, have a nice, darby!

[shanti]

65. what the hell...

well, have a nice, darby!

[snoochie]

70. Absolutely chilling!

That's really frightening... knowing how many intellectually weak people are opting for the easy road through just this same 'thought' process.

:scared:

[HEyHEY]

71. God hates you more than gay people lady

Because you're spreading hate.

[derbstyron]

72. Hey, where do you get that I'm a "lady"?

Wrong.
:crazy:

[HEyHEY]

83. Well, I'm right about you being an idiot right?

;-)

[derbstyron]

84. Well, actually

It would seem that *you* would be the idiot as you are virtually the only one left not in on the joke.

For christs sake: go buy a fucking clue!

[ogradda]

73. that was good

really impressive. if i decide to go trolling someday i'm going to use that.

[arwalden]

75. Too Funny! That's A Great Impersonation Of A RW Christian Lunatic!

You ought to write horror stories.

[uppityperson]

76. all you laughing or being snide at this, why do you hate america?

woohooo, thanks for this morning's laugh, even though it's afternoon

78. Wow! That's great satire.

Nice work! :thumbsup:
