Most "news outlets" are profit-driven corporate enterprises or state-run propaganda propagators. They're largely relics of the past. It's a little scary to hear of people searching for one to rely on for information. Your best bet is to gather as much information from as many sources as possible, and then compare the content and the strength of their arguments, rather than just accepting or dismissing information based on where it came from. Above all, you need Christian principles, set in stone, to judge those arguments by. If you don't have those Christian principles, then you'll be manipulated and misled quite easily, like a sheep to the slaughter.

I especially love how he provides no arguments/proof for his statements!

Thats funny coming from someone who simply ignores and pests people for having different opinions than himself. Even funnier coming from someone who categorically ignores every post of substance that he can't ridicule with a meme, or call into question with a copy-pasted summary of a book he didn't read...

damn well said umeu :love:


Musket trying to make a friend... how cute.

I always provide arguments for my own statements. You will rarely if ever see me say anything like If you don't have those Christian principles, then you'll be manipulated and misled quite easily, like a sheep to the slaughter. and then don't say why. Perhaps you might not find my arguments compelling or sufficient, that's a different matter.

No but he was a child then (or so he claimed) so change is to be expected. He does seem almost too different 10 years later though. An interesting specimen, no doubt.

It's not that. It's that you seem to have changed so much that I would think you're a different person. And the Bahrain thing. And the way you argue. And how secretive you've always been about personal stuff, unlike everyone else on A414A at the time. Same here, though to a lesser extent; people in general seem more reserved here because it's a more public space. You still take the cake though because you can't even say in what country you live or where you're originally from.

But I don't think you're deliberately trolling. I'm just not 100% sure.

Yeah, I thought so.

Frankly this is getting obnoxious. I can think of a few people who do nothing but spam "you're a troll" in every thread now. No wonder people are leaving the forum.

You're a troll and you cause people to leave.

Holy Blessed Mother of Christ, has lejend seen the light? Btw.
LEJEND I mean when was the last time that anyone here watched 20 minutes of a Christian

I am a practising Christian and you @lejend are everything that we are ashamed of in the Presbyterian church if you were Christian which I sincerely doubt.
May your soul be forgiven for pretending to follow Jesus because you cannot do it yourself and you are too evil at heart to forgive others.

No wonder people are leaving the forum.

Your stupid shitposts about how to beat up everyone around you to be a leader made me realise you are just a mean, irrelevant person with no actual business acumen nor managerial experience. For shits and laughs you copy paste whole pages just to stop a meaningful instruction to future teachers on this forum. This is of course unbeknown to your tiny one-cell-brain, but talking with experienced teachers is a crucial self-reflection process for young teachers and is called Intervision which you simple decided to deny to lordraph/yemshi to continue your dumb agenda.
You also have some weird-ass fetish about Templars which makes me guess you're a Slav.

I wonder why nobody calls Benj, Dolan, InsectPoison or Vardar trolls...
