As a Christian I'm very offended by this topic. You should be ashamed of yourself. If you believe LukeGroundwalker, why do you insist to poke fun at other people's religions? This is something i dont take lightly or as a "joke."

Consider yourself reported.

MJ and Jesus are illegible for Brawl, thankfully. Neither Jesus nor MJ originated from games, even if they've been in them. And the 'little boy juices'jab was unnecesasry, and not lol-worthy. I can't stand all these joke threads that are vastly unfunny.

I find it strange that you seem conflicted on whether the Jesus thread is a joke or whether you actually want him in. I refuse to believe you would, and that you were merely saying it to troll.

Oh, and offending people by using their religion as a joke is probably not a wise idea. Personally, I find Jesus can be very funny, but this is poor.

Good night, lock the thread when you're done, please.

Darn, why am I still here? lulz, I'll try to make this my last post in this place. :p

But I don't think you should report him over the thread itself, more of his flamming later on. I said it before, it's an old quote I like:
"In comedy, Nothing is sacred"
It just means that just because you think it's wrong, doesn't make it wrongall together. Unlessof course he made this simply TOO offend people.

But he really hasn't gotten up and said "I HATE ALL F**KING CHRISTIANS AND THERE F**KING GOD AND JESUS!"

But reporting him for his flamming is totally acceptable. :laugh:

I REPORTED him for the following reasons:

1) Because I am a CHRISTIAN, and whether the world views this as wrong or not, I feel it is my duty to stand up for my beliefs and defend the God that loves me and died on the cross for MY sins.
2) Making a thread purposefully to make people angry and induce flaming
3) A horrible attempt at a joke thread, which all get closed

Welcome to America, you have the right to be offended, deal with it.

Well, bluebomber22, I've reported you because:

1) I'm NOT a Christian and I think wasting moderators time with someone else's belief by reporting how 'offended' you are is inappropriate.
2) Making a post which was uppity and assumed others cared that you were offended.
3) Making a skewed statement about what you think is funny.

I concur with the people who say this is not funny.

Not shall you be seriously serious about this. No chance because that will never happen.

If you can't see the humor in this joke you have no sense of humor at all.
Now see the problem really isn't even the humor. The problem is that you're an attention *****. And you're not even a good one. Any idiot can be able to blindly throw a bit of derogatory rhetoric your way and amuse you. What easier way is there to anger people than to make controversial topic regarding one of the world's most revered religious icons? "Teeheeheehee ZOMG everyone get angry at my joke joke. LAWL LAWL LAWL Life is good. Jesus jokes ARE TEH FUNNY!!1" Good job. I bet you feel really accomplished.

And if Jesus were in Brawl, the tier list would be completely ruined.

I love how unfunny joke threads about secular characters don't generate hate. But when Jesus is the subject of an unfunny joke thread not only does everybody point out how "offensive" it is, but others just talk about how it's not funny while denying that they're offended, where are they in the other stupid, unfunny joke threads? Why aren't they getting mad in those?

Oh you Christians. You're so silly.

I bet if I made a Buddha thread it wouldn't get near this response.

Buddha for Brawl!

It seems this thread got the response the thread creator wanted. Fact is, it's not funny and nor is SmashBoards a place for religious debate.

I'm Christian and I wasn't offended by the original post. I just feel it's highly unnecessary, illogical and a waste of time. It doesn't serve a purpose at all. Furthermore there is no need for people to start criticising each other for their beliefs just because they personally were offended by the original post. Of course they are entitled to feel offended, that's their opinion, just as you are entitled to yours.

Please close this thread.

Just because you're a christain doesn't mean you have to get offended by everything with the word "Jesus" in it. I hate people that do that.

Well you better start hating me then SiD. Because I will always say something when someone tries to debase my Lord

I don't know what debase means, but it was just a joke. Whether or not it was funny is irrelevant. People that get all pissed off over **** that doesn't matter is what makes things worse always. It's what brings about unescecarry censorship, which is undeniably wrong.

I guarantee that if this thread said "Budda for Brawl" you would have either thought it was a little ammusing, or ignored it entirely.

We have a freedom of speech for a reason. Not everyone agrees with you. As someone already said, "In comdy, nothing is sacred."

So yeah, if you wanna get pissed off just because something had the word "Jesus" in it without the word "praise" before it, my respect for you just went down the drain. And that's a sad thing BB, I really respected you're opinions before.

If you're so offended and Christanity is so much more important, then why do you keep coming back to the topic? No one forces you to read these posts.

This applies to everyone, even yourself. Which means some people will have opinions that conflict with yours. Which means while you may not find this thread offensive, others might. Should you criticise these people just for having their own opinion?

No. They are entitled to their opinion, just as you are.

Woa woa, dude settle down. You can be religious, but then you can be religious if you know what I'm saying?
Let's just all be friends. No use getting mad at someone saying something you find offensive when they live miles and miles away, and especially if they said it on the internet...in a forum... about a videogame.
I mean, come on. There's more to life than just getting mad. Just believe in Jesus, and sigh when someone makes fun of him.

I don't care who you are, but when you're dead for 2000 years and then someone makes a bad joke about you, i don't think you'll be turning in your grave (or what-have-you).

And this goes for everyone: let's settle down.

Peace and cookies, I'll get the milk

First of all SiD, who said i was pissed?

secondly of course if it said buddha i would have ignored it, im NOT a Buddhist so i have no reason to defend it.

And obviously yes everyone doesnt have to agree with me, just like I DONT have to agree with them. So when someone posts a Moronic topic debasing ( "making lower" in this context making fun of) my religion, then i have every right to post back defending it.

I am in no way pissed. im just dissapointed in people's lack of tact and taste. I dont expect everybody to be Christian, but i do expect everbody to respect each other. This why the mods dont allow flaming, or even religious topics to be discussed because it crosses boundaries.

obviously Jesus will not be a character in Brawl, so to me this was either a troll topic, or a horrible joke topic. both of which deserve to be closed.

and if you lose respect for me because i stood up for Christianity, then thats a sacrifice im willing to make

No, you're right. They are entitled to the same rights. I am critisizing his reasoning for reporting someone. I think his reasons for being offended are equally flawed. Why should I not voice these? Again, he reported someone, because they offended him. By saying "Jesus".

Do you think that's right?


EDIT: I don't lose respect because you stood up for Christianity, it's because you have no reason to be offended by this and yet you act like he's some kind of monster.

In all honesty, do you think Jesus would be offended? He was more about forgive and forget, was he not?

I think he may even find it ammusing.

That seems a little hypocritcal to me.
So these people ARENT christian, so they have no reason to defend it?
Right? So stop going off at them when the don't defend it.

This thread is getting a little out of hand. It was a joke, and all he did was say "Jesus for Brawl!"
This is hardly a reason for everyone to kill eachother over this all.

I suggest we all leave, and wait for the thread to die.

Well stated.

But I think free speech should be reserved for stuff that actually matters on a grander scale.

Like the March on Washington. Let's save it for another one of those events.

Please note: I'm not trying to defend this thread.

In his opinion, this thread offended him. So he reported it.

If a thread offended you, I'm sure you might choose to report it.

I think it's right that people can choose to report something which offends them. Just because you don't find this thread offensive, doesn't mean others won't. Which means that while you won't report this thread, others might. Again, it's all about opinion.

That said, let's end this please. This thread is unnecessary.

i didnt report him for offending me. i reported him for making a troll/joke topic

jesus would forgive him. but that doesntmean he's not wrong for doing it. And i dont think you or me is in a position to determine if he would find it amusing or not

But being offended by something is poor reason to report someone.

Someone once said, "I may not agree with what he says, but I'll defend to the death his right to say it."

That is how I feel about this.

Ok first of all i am thankful that all of you are sticking up for me but it was just a joke. Seriously this is just like the crusades i made it perfectly clear that yo should love each other not kill. So what if they made fun of me it was for the lulz. As soon as you saw the op post you should had just clicked the back button and refrain from posting. Replying will only encourage and bump the thread further.

bluebomber22 stop being a douche. You already on thin ice with your constant masturbation and waste of your seed. Stop it. And yes i am black its not that big of a deal.

And SenorPresidente is the grates user here so go suck his ****.

OK then, dude, you're making it really difficult to defend you.

Making a joke is ok, purposefully pissing people off even more is just annoying.

The person making it had full knowledge people would be offended...

Purposely offending people for fun is NOT something to defend...

Imagine someone calling a homosexual a ***got to make fun of him and everyone else laughing and agreeing with that person for saying it...Your saying something like that is right?


YOu can say what you want...but respect others beliefs
