Re: what is an oxymormon?

What does the word oxymormon means? I have heard people saying this like "thats an oxymormon", but what does it mean? Is it related to mormons and magic underwear? Or is it some kind of sect within the mormons who are even more heathen than the so called "normal" mormons?

An oxymoron? Reasonable atheist. Honest liberal. Gay Christian. You get the idea.

Re: what is an oxymormon?

It's a contradiction, like "Christian bigot" or "Aboriginal physicist."

Re: what is an oxymormon?

It's a contradiction in terms but the outcome still has to be true. it's a common misconception that oxymoron merely means a contradiction.

some cliche oxymorons include

bitter sweet
irregular pattern
heavy lightness
Original copy

and for anyone interested in linguistics - oxy means sharp and moron means dull (blunt)

Actually Mormons are followers of the cult started up by Joseph Smith. I assume you're another victim of public schooling?

Re: what is an oxymormon?

Your assumption is incorrect. I was home schooled. I'm almost certain I typed oxymoron.

Really? You were home schooled and you're this stupid?

[Fencepost88]

Re: what is an oxymormon?

not as stupid as those before me. I took a screeny of my post before I clicked submit so I know what word I typed. I then looked at my post the instant after I submitted. Unless someone is very quick it was not a human that changed the word I wrote. So it was either God or this forum automatically edits certain words. Either way I'm not particularly fussed, believing I actually meant to type Mormon speaks more of the readers intelligence than mine.

"Baptist scholar"

"Papal fallacy"

"Freehold diet"


Three perfect examples!

I am not an idiot.

Idiot doesn't really cut it in your case. You're a moron.

I am an IT Tech & Security Specialist

And unsaved trash.

when I next have the chance, I will read through the Bible.

Well, maybe you're not quite as big a moron as I thought. Everyone should read the Bible, cover to cover.

Amen.

did I post the screeny?

I just said I took one so that I could be certain of what I had typed.

He was saying you are such a fraud (as in an Atheist) you would fake your own spell check to pretend you didn't make a mistake.

More oxymorons;

open minded atheist
compassionate liberal
useful Californian

Firstly I'm not an atheist, secondly I never said I didn't make a mistake.
