Well, hey, thanks for all the kind welcomes.
@MadCatTLX,
Yeah looking back on the things I said in the past, I think they are more silly than offensive. If I ran into my former self I'd probably laugh at and pity him more than feel offended. But to be clear, it wasn't just the Christian Forum quotes on the FSTDT main site, I also joined and was for a time an active member of the FSTDT Forum itself. I don't know to what degree I really believed in such bullshit, or whether it was all just trolling for attention...I did kinda enjoy getting my quotes posted to FSTDT.
But either way of course it doesn't excuse the things I said.
Maybe if there's one thing the Catholicism I once adhered to has ingrained on my subconscious, it's the relentless sense of guilt and the need to openly confess my sins to achieve atonement...
I just feel really bad about all the ridiculous things I said about Jewish people and non-Christians, and especially with all the suicides and everything, I feel particularly terrible about fostering an atmosphere of hate toward LGBTQ people.
And yeah Dan, I see it is April Fool's Day, but my thread was posted on March 31...to be honest I stumbled in mildly drunk last night hoping to get to sleep early, couldn't fall asleep, decided to browse the web for a bit and somehow ended up on FSTDT and felt compelled to post this, I really had no idea what the date was. In retrospect I kinda wish I had come back as my old self for a day just as a sort of April Fool's prank, but I guess I kinda screwed that up already, I'm always bad at pulling off pranks.
But yeah, the April Fool's will have to just apply to everything else I ever said on FSTDT, I really do mean everything I said in the OP...
And anyway, I do have a couple of questions. For one, I thought I had already created this account several months ago, but it wasn't being recognized last night...then I realized I have bookmarked a separate "FSTDT Refugee Board" which is also active and where I might just repost this...are these fora in competition or something?
Also when I was posting here all those years ago, the admin of the site was an individual named "Yahweh" who I believe at that time was in the process of transitioning from male-to-female...is she still around here somewhere?
