i've seen that site, didn't really think it was worth it to respond to it...haters gonna hate...
-
..yeah, but cant they keep there hate to themselves instead of infecting everyone ELSE with it?
-
well remember, responding angrily only fuels their hate :(
those jerks feel the need to infect others with their hate...we just ignore them and team up together against hate :3
-
God Hates Furries? Furryism? This site made me crack up SOOOO much XD In my personal beliefs (Christianity) God hates NOONE!!!! That means gays, bis, and furries alike. But I guess thats just retarded "Christians" who like to think different is wrong. Bigotry and the Church are not keys to happiness. I BELIEVE in God, and I dont go to church and i dont worship much besides the OCCAISONAL Bible reading or prayer.
-
I've seen worse, it's not possible to get angry over every anti-fur 'cause of the fact that there's too many out thre, like Drake said haters are gonna hate and if we respond to them then they'll just realize that they can get a reaction out of us which is exactly what we don't want them to think.
What do you think the public eye would see as worse?
A bunch of wierdos? Or a bunch of defensive butthurt wierdos?
It's near impossible to convince people that hate groups are biased and prejudice, we just don't have enough people to be convincing enough since the amount of haters are most likely going to outweigh the amount of furries.
Just roll with it and ignore them.

Doesn't this also just make us as bad?
Recall my post on us bashing others, no the site isn't very nice particularly to those who are Furries, but like the rest of the Internet the creator has a freedom of speech like everyone else has, freedom of speech is important.
Whilst I do not necessarily agree with the website in question, the forums here could be deemed as offensive to those who dislike Furries, it's all about perception.
Those who want to know the truth will listen to it, there's little point attacking those who segregate furries, it will just make furries look as bad, just ignore it and move on.

I like how the guy calls his site "godhatesfurries". Sounds like he's taking his cues from the Westboro Baptist Church. Gotta learn from the best, amirite? :P
On a serious note? Obvious trolls are obvious.
-
Lol, I remember why im embarrassed to call myself a christian sometimes, its called BELIEF people, NOT OMG WORSHIP EVERY SUNDAY AND SHOVE YOUR FACE IN A BIBLE!!!! My bible teacher said that what WESTBORO BAPTIST was teaching was right >:(
At first :o
Then: IM OUT OF THIS SCHOOL AS SOON AS HIGH SCHOOL COMES >:(
-
i know all THAT..it just kinda pisses me off they gotta ruin us to those who didnt even get the chance to see the "other side"
like for example....take a person who has NEVER even heard the word furry..now say...say there watching there favorite show CIS and there is a episode about furries and all it depicts is a fetishism room with weird kinky stuff. or they see a news bulliten about a guy arrested for doing his neighbors dog in a fursuit.
i GUARANTEE you...that from then on there gonna think twice about thinking anything good about furries.
now there opinion is tainted by that one bad exposure.
thats what i dont like about those sites, it doesnt fairly depict us.
-
I agree Kaprika, its stupid bigots who depict us unfairly
Ok... damn Im way to logical for a 13 year old...
-
Yeah, that's always annoying. And it doesn't help matters that the media feeds off of drama, so they don't want to hear it when the truth turns out to directly contradict the drama.
And wow Neo, I gotta say that your bible teacher caught me off guard. I can kinda see where she could be right in terms of what the scripture actually says, but then that gets into the issue of how the scripture frequently contradicts itself and that's just another topic for another day. :P And it's impossible to be too logical for your age. I actually think it's cool that there are still younger people out there that CAN think for themselves. :)
-
Im a christian AND a therian/furry that also believes in evolution so I guess I can think for myself XD
-
And that is all people can base their opinion on, it's the same with many things. If people are unwilling to change their views based on a few bits of information that's their loss.
I'm sure I could name several examples of this - probably even some of what you believe.
-
The only thing worth reading on that site: "Should I hate Furries?
...
No. You should hate stupid people, you should hate people that do and say stupid things and set themselves up for ridicule."
The irony in that statement alone made it a worthwhile read. XD
Whilst I do not necessarily agree with the website in question, the forums here could be deemed as offensive to those who dislike Furries, it's all about perception.
Gonna have to disagree with this, personally. If this site's creation is offensive to anyone, it's only because of a lack of sensitivity and open-mindedness on that person(s) part. No amount of open-mindedness can justify the things that are said on godhatesfurries.com. I am all for Free Speech. However, blatant misuse and abuse of said freedom in order to further one's own agenda against a particular group of people is not okay with me.
Do I plan to do anything about it? No. The only thing I could legitimately do would be to return fire, but that wouldn't solve anything, now would it? But to say that something like that can be considered "okay" depending upon your perception of the situation is, in my (not-so) humble opinion, just plain ludicrous.
My opinion on the matter: the guy who made that site is a dick. He's not worth anyone's time, and to give him that time of day is granting him the petty satisfaction that he wants. Anyone with an open mind and a little common sense can see he's just spouting nonsense to give himself an e-peen boner. So let him think what he wants; let him say what he wants. No skin (or fur, as it were) off of our noses.
-
"God hates" Is an oxymoronic statement. They don't understand Christianity any more than they do the furry fandom.

Not quite. While I agree that the author clearly doesn't understand (or purposefully chooses to misinterpret and misconstrue) either Christianity or the furry fandom, "God hates" is not actually an oxymoron until you add a person (or persons) after it. Even the Bible states that God hates certain things. It even lists off seven things he specifically hates (though I don't know the scripture off the top of my head). It's only people which he cannot hate.
I understand I'm nitpicking, but I just felt that needed to be clarified.

yeah, tottaly. and hell..if you read the entire thing, he provides links to like...ALOT of fur things. it makes you wonder why he knows of all those sites. like me, i didnt know about VCL until recently, or any of those fur getogether sites..
for him to have all that, he is SPECIFICALY going out of his way to dig up malicious and grudgy things to use as "evidence" against us.
i cant imagine why anyone would hate us SOOOO much they would take the time to make a entire site dedicated to hating us, and slanderizing furries.
:/

Remember, fighting on the internet is like running in the special olympics. Even if you win, you're still retarded
-
People deemed medically retarded and those deemed retarded for being stupid online really shouldn't be compared because the former group of individuals don't deserve to be dragged down to the downright level of ignorance and stupidity of the latter.

Yes, yes. I knowwww. XP
I'm just bein' all "THIS IZ MAH SERIOUS FACE (http://jaded16.files.wordpress.com/2010/02/loldogs-funny-dog-pictures-im-seriousthis-is-my-serious-face.jpg)" (O mai... did I just answer with a meme?) because we're talking about potentially offensive material. So it seemed relevant.
-
Oh, I so totally sent the maker of that site a little love letter. Just because he was expecting me to. I took the time to read most of it, because he sets a few traps for those who would mail him without reading it.
And while I agree he is a [removed] I respect him for firing out like that. Nothing like hateful free speech in the morning. But I also ripped him a new one about why he says furs like to argue....why did you make a site hating on furs when they're obviously going to try and stand up for themselves?
I mean if he wants to eradicate furs then great, go for it I won't stand in his way. But I would respect him a lot more if he wasn't so dense and headstrong and if he actually tried to do something major instead of starting meaningless fights with furs. His attitude is that of a troll so he lost a few points of respect from the get go. Dont get me wrong I stood up for myself and other furs in my message, but I enjoy people who advocate what they believe in no matter what that belief is. So I gave him a few (very small) props for putting the effort he did into the site.
-
I've seen that site, and I've seen dozens of other junk sites like that, I've been watching videos on youtube about haters and respectively making comments against them with respect, because those haters need to know that they're the ones harming us. We do nothing against anyone and they still have to make such stupid websites and videos saying "go auay furs", "yiff in hell **censor**" - people that also don't seem to have a good English base XD
godhatesfurries.com and other websites like that make me laugh when reading them, because of their ignorance -_-
-
Yiff in heaven, fur friends. X3 (sorry had to)
-
T_T ...I don't understand haters. I wonder if they ever get tired of hating on people, cuz doesn't it take a lot of time an energy to even bother feeling hate towards somebody else. People spend their time doing the strangest of things. :|
-
time and effort goes into making websites, sometimes even money. so why anyonw hates ANYTHING soooooo much they will do there one sided research to support there opinion..write all the information down..pay for the domain name, and so on and so forth?
gosh...what the heck did a fur ever do to HIM to make him that pissed off at us?
-
ever thought he may be "burned fur"? those are furries who used to be a part of the fandom but something drama-wise happened to elicit such a response

The level of hatred required for something like that is a level that genuinely good people aren't capable of feeling. I utterly loathe the Westboro Baptist Church, they're the only group of people I have ever genuinely wished harm and death upon (And I feel sick with myself every time I do), but I've got so many better things to spend my time, energy, and money on than a group of IRL trolls.
If anything, this individual is to be felt sorry for, because that kind of hatred is the kind that can and frequently does consume people entirely.
-
As much as I'd like to I'm not going to let this guy get my scales in a ruffle he's not worth it :/. I will say this though one day he'll meet the wrong furry and say the wrong thing and he will get what he has coming to him >:(. Karma will have her way X3.

I agree.

Its people like this that make me embarrassed to call myself a christian...
-
The overall tone of the site seems more like a troll's work than a genuinely angry person's work, but maybe that's just me.
-

And it's Christians like you that give me hope for the future of the human race. :)

Too much hate going around, on both sides... People need to learn to love each other.
