Saying you are a martian doesn't make it so. And how does pointing out a contradiction equate to hate edge? And why can't you type "you" instead of "u"?

Hate Edge

if ur straight edge ur not mad at everyone else for not being straight edge and u dont yell at people for drinking and smoking and doin drugs and havign casual sex u just dont do that urself. hate edge is the opposite where ur straight edge and hate people who arent and drink and stuff that is like hating jesus because he drank which means that u are hate edge. oh yeah and i put u instead of you because i feel like it and its shorter.

what are you basing this opinion on "if ur straight edge ur not mad at everyone else for not being straight edge and u dont yell at people for drinking and smoking and doin drugs and havign casual sex u just dont do that urself. hate edge is the opposite where ur straight edge and hate people who arent and drink and stuff that is like hating jesus because he drank which means that u are hate edge."

Being sXe isn't saying you hate people for drinking etc (excluding the sex thing, since that's noting to do with edge really) but it does mean that you are taking a stong stance, and are saying you beleive drinking to be wrong. Hence the problem with Christianity and edge.

(I have to say though putting U instead of You is kind of anoying for any one trying to read it)

OK about this whole christian thing....About the wine, it was all they could drink because the water had so much bacteria in it and they had no way to purify it. The only way to do that was to ferment it which also killed the bacteria. Just thought id add that....

You guys are taking this Jesus drank whine to literal. As a Christian you try to be like him as best you can. But if you choose not to drink he isn’t going to not let you into heaven. No where in the bible does it say you have to drink alcohol, nor is it required in church. So yes you can be edge and Christian. If we start going you’re a Christian you cant be edge, you dress different you cant be edge. If you only say kids that fit the scene can be edge you push people away from us. We are a movement to stop kids from destroying their body’s and their lives. Think of us as an army. If you divide the army up and make the army weak brittle and useless, nothing will be achieved. I mean this movement is trying to stop kids from using drugs and alcohol and destroying they lives, right? If we start deciding that edge kids have to fit a special model, We might as well join the punk who never did achieve anything. We want the movement to be successful. We want to open people’s eyes to how much better it is to be edge and not to waste their lives

no one can prefectly. but drinking alchol has nothing to do with being like him. they mean in his action in how he treated people. the way he helped people. so if you dont drink that doesnt mean your not fellowing his way.

oh cool you're smarter and know better than jesus.

I really wish people would read and address the actual issue instead of the subject of the thread.
