Re: IS 'VAMPIRE FREAKS' A TERRORIST ORGANIZATION?

This is one of the most close-minded threads I have ever read. It all just seems like a joke. I can see how you get the impression that VampireGeeks is bad by just glancing at it, but did you actually take time to LOOK into the site?

The site is created for people with an alternative lifestyle. People who enjoy dressing in dark fashions. Thats right, fashion. Ever heard of it? Its a place for friends to meet and chat about what interests them. This is where alternative style people can find acceptance. Being a member there does NOT make you evil or a communist. You are free to believe whatever you want there.

I am happily a Christian and also a member of the site. Yes, I do wear white powder, black lipstick and dress in black all the time, but thats just because I enjoy the fashion. I believe that God is good and the people who he will really punish are the ones who shun His children just because of the way they chose to look or what sites they choose to meet new friends on.

Sure, murderers and pedophiles thrive on the site, but isn't the case the same on all other chat sites? Myspace, facebook, etc. Murderers and rapists are EVERYWHERE. They could just as easily be members of any site. Associating yourself with a style does not make you want to go out and start shooting people. You really think theres a site encouraging us to go out and kill people? Think about how ridiculous that sounds. The choice of the person is up to them, and only them. No one can control their actions.

And if you're going to argue, please do so in an adult manner. No one will take you seriously if you start name-calling and pointing fingers like I've seen in all the previous posts.

When did Jesus endorse alternative lifestyles?

People who enjoy dressing in dark fashions. Thats right, fashion. Ever heard of it?

Where does the Bible condone fashion?

This is where alternative style people can find acceptance. Being a member there does NOT make you evil or a communist. You are free to believe whatever you want there.

Including evil communist things, I take it?

Do you know what the Bible says about vanity?

You don't believe Al-Q'aeda exist? Or that they use the internet?

#1. It is simply not possible to be a Christian and a vampire/goth/emo maggot. The two are mutually exclusive. That's like claiming you're a nigroe klansman or a queer Christian. Not possible.

#2. We do not "argue" with unsaved scum such as yourself. This is a Christian forum, not a debate site. Your rights on our forum are listed HERE, and our church doctrine is listed HERE. Anymore hatespeech like that and you will be asked to leave.

Jesus is the cure for what ails you, boy. Ask Him to wash your sins away with His blood, and you'll forget about dressing up like it's Halloween.

Re: IS 'VAMPIRE FREAKS' A TERRORIST ORGANIZATION?

When did I say alternative lifestyles and Jesus were related? I don't believe I did.

So because I chose to do my make-up in a different way, that makes me vain? I never said I was pretty. That would be vain. Would you condone the women who put on make-up normally? No? So its just the one's who make their outsides look differently than the norm that you prosecute?

Once again, its not a place for evil people. Evil people may be on the site, but thats just because thats their choice. There are evil people on EVERY site, whether you choose to ignore it or not.

Re: IS 'VAMPIRE FREAKS' A TERRORIST ORGANIZATION?

This is a Christian board. Do I come onto your terrorist goth websites and start discussions about things that are entirely unrelated to dressing up like a spook or murdering Christian children? No I do not. So why would you come to a Christian board and start arguing about something that has nothing to do with Christ? If Jesus doesn't approve of being a filthy drop-out, why should you?

So because I chose to do my make-up in a different way, that makes me vain? I never said I was pretty. That would be vain. Would you condone the women who put on make-up normally? No?

Do you know what the word condone means?

So its just the one's who make their outsides look differently than the norm that you prosecute?

Sadly, there are no laws in place allowing us to prosecute goffs for being goffs. Yet.

Once again, its not a place for evil people. Evil people may be on the site, but thats just because thats their choice. There are evil people on EVERY site, whether you choose to ignore it or not.

Evil people come here. But they get banned very quickly. I do hope you won't turn out to be evil.

Oh yes, of course! What were we thinking!? Vampires are well-known for their kindness and generosity.

Lady, how old are you? Does your husband let you run around looking like a freak?

Re: IS 'VAMPIRE FREAKS' A TERRORIST ORGANIZATION?

I'm a girl. And I wasn't encouraging arguments. Thats just what I saw in all the previous posts and I knew it would ensue because apparently you people can't accept a fashion.

So I'm marked as "unsaved trash"? How do you expect to convert people if you shun them so quickly? Isn't Christianity about forgiveness and living on this earth so that you may spread the good news of Christ? You don't convince me too much.

As I said before, I AM a Christian, I just choose to look differently because I don't want to look like everyone else in this world. Just because I dress goth doesn't mean I worship the devil or practice witchcraft. Gothic styles derived from very long ago in medieval times. I just so happen to like that way it looks. If you can't accept that, then theres no point in arguing with people so close-minded.

Re: IS 'VAMPIRE FREAKS' A TERRORIST ORGANIZATION?

Well, that'd explain why you're wrong about everything.

So I'm marked as "unsaved trash"? How do you expect to convert people if you shun them so quickly? Isn't Christianity about forgiveness and living on this earth so that you may spread the good news of Christ?

It's about forgiving those who repent of their sins. Once we are convinced that you have genuinely repented of your sins, we will be happy to mark you as Saved, Praise Jesus.

As I said before, I AM a Christian, I just choose to look differently because I don't want to look like everyone else in this world.

Yes, because you're vain and prideful. We've covered this already.

Just because I dress goth doesn't mean I worship the devil or practice witchcraft. Gothic styles derived from very long ago in medieval times.

If you genuinely think that this is what 16th-Century peasants dressed like, then I'm afraid I have some news to break to you.

Re: IS 'VAMPIRE FREAKS' A TERRORIST ORGANIZATION?

Seems to me someone is pretty sexist. I'm starting to think this whole site is a joke. My whole family is Christian and my grandfather is even a preacher, he has no problem with the way I dress because he knows I'm a good person on the inside.

'Fraid to break it to you but that's not goth, its called cyberpunk. Theres a difference.

So let me get this right... I throw on some normal clothes and make-up and you will accept me? I thought we were supposed to look past the outer layer? Oh, I forgot that doesn't apply to people who dress in black!

This thread is here so we can answer the question. Why is it that I'm only Christian if I agree with you on the answer?

[Brother Temperance]

Re: IS 'VAMPIRE FREAKS' A TERRORIST ORGANIZATION?

Seems to me someone is pretty sexist.

Seems to me women are pretty inferior. I've not found much evidence to contradict my beliefs so far.

I'm starting to think this whole site is a joke.

I'm sure you think the whole Bible is a joke as well.

My whole family is Christian and my grandfather is even a preacher, he has no problem with the way I dress because he knows I'm a good person on the inside.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Lord hadn't cursed your grandaddy with blindness for being a false Christian. The Almighty certainly cursed your parents pretty badly when He inflicted you on them.

'Fraid to break it to you but that's not goth, its called cyberpunk. Theres a difference.

'Fraid to break it to you but you're an idiot. Cyberpunk is a genre of fiction. That "person" is a cybergoth, as in goth, as in hellbound goth.

So let me get this right... I throw on some normal clothes and make-up and you will accept me? I thought we were supposed to look past the outer layer? Oh, I forgot that doesn't apply to people who dress in black!

No, you throw on some normal clothes and make-up and reject your sins and we will accept you. There's no point in you looking like a decent person if you still harbour pride in your black little heart.

This thread is here so we can answer the question. Why is it that I'm only Christian if I agree with you on the answer?

Because we get our answers straight from Christ's Teachings, that's why.

Re: IS 'VAMPIRE FREAKS' A TERRORIST ORGANIZATION?

All your answers show me is that you are close-minded. I haven't done anything to rebuke the Lord. I'm just a normal Christian with a choice of different clothing.

If you will excuse me, its dinner time and I don't see any point in arguing with people who refuse to expand their views.

May God bless you and help you accept others more easily. I sincerely hope for the best for you even though you have chosen to mock me because of the way I look.

Jesus can and will forgive you, but only if you sincerely repent. You are just another lazy kid who thinks they can have it both ways. God sees through your shabby trick. You're what we call a false Christian. And He commands us to rebuke you in His name!

1 Tim 5:20 Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear.

Who cares what you think? We follow the Word of God.

"The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God." -- Deuteronomy 22:5

"Women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with braided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array." -- 1 Timothy 2:9

"Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel." -- 1 Peter 3:3

"Thou shalt not wear a garment of divers sorts, as of woollen and linen together." -- Deuteronomy 22:11

"I will punish ... all such as are clothed with strange apparel." -- Zephaniah 1:8

How many of these commandments have you violated, harlot? God expects us to obey EVERY law in the Bible, not just the ones we "feel like" following.

Re: IS 'VAMPIRE FREAKS' A TERRORIST ORGANIZATION?

So, basically 'Damned if you do damned if you don't'?
I wasn't a member of this website until today because I came across it looking for social networking sites and somebody commented it was like a facebook or myspace.

From what I've read so far, even if this hadn't happened as soon as someone mentions a topic or even a word you are convinced cannot exist even if the title was only thought up because all the oh-so-joyful ones were already taken you immediately fire into a quote the bible even though it says god loves everyone?

Last time I checked, it didn't have:
Define_Paramaters:Notgoth_Notvampire_Notapreacher_ Notrelatedtoafamilyyouknowofandthereforenotworthad amn.

I mean, Its understandable you could get the impression in the manner previous people have conveyed their opinions but seriously... are you that clusterminded?

I just want to state that I think you are just personifying what the media does. Instigating paranoia. If its foreign to you in concept or origins you damn it because it could hurt your personal 'bubble'.

I'm not here as a spammer but as an open minded individual who actually wants to hear your reasoning without going at me with your entire dictionary of slander as if you are some 14-year-old myspace newbie.

Just, please.
