Well I killed myself a couple times, but I rose from the dead because I am a necromancer.

Roger, you've been back less than a day and already you're posting flamebait, religious flamebait at that. Can you at least *try* to not create drama?

I know you just got back from your religious-based absence, and will probably be going to an Easter service tomorrow/today, and so it's all fresh on your mind. That's great. But you have to realize that a good number of furries (aka the people who go here) are not religious. Or have some other religious belief like agnosticism for example. And it's not your place to tell others that their facts are wrong based on your set of personal beliefs.

Personally I'm a Christian too, and yeah I'd probably agree with your statement. But blatantly saying "you're wrong because my religion says so" is just asking to be flamed.

TL;DR version: Roger, leave religion out of your comments, please. It makes things ten times simpler.

[Segovia]

Why won't anyone realize that I am kidding. Geez! Dantherman, seriously, I get it. As the Germans say

"Mund Zu!"

[MuffinSticks]

Segovia, you weren't kidding. You were blatantly saying that the statement int he comic was incorrect according to your religion.

If that's to tldr for you too, STFU ABOUT YOUR RELIGION. Love you.

[Segovia]

Look guys, here's a system. If a say something religous and if it's lowercase except for the first letter of the sentence, names, or places then I'm kidding.

But if I use caps lock then I'm serious.

Ex.

Convert to Christianity you heathens! ( Kidding)

I WORSHIP JESUS CHRIST. ( Serious)

Got it? Good.

So you use the complete opposite of what most people would use, for the sake of making yourself better understood. Well that makes perfect sense. Unless that post itself is supposed to be sarcastic, in which case...

Excuse me. My brain just exploded.

How about this: we leave religion out of threads that have nothing to do with religion. Which would, again, make things ten times simpler.

[Segovia]

I'll try.

[MuffinSticks]

How about you don't ever kid, since nobody but me seems to be able to tell.

I think Roger made a perfectly valid point. According to Christian doctrine, this comic (which you cannot deny is intended to have religious - indeed, specifically Christian - meaning) is incorrect. Roger was well within propriety to mention this; he even writes beneath it "Of course this is from a Catholic point of view."

Please don't attack people unnecessarily. (This goes for Muffin too, and anyone else who was thinking of jumping on that bandwagon.)

(And Roger: your proposed system is silly, I would advise against using it. Just try to joke more obviously.)

[Jakkal]

wait... the bible says: on the 6th day god made all the animals on the grounds (dogs, ect.) on the 6th day as well god created the humans... and stuff... so, it's wrong to say by her "God made you first, "we are actually the last one. He placed us on the "first" place of rule, that would be right. referring to Genesis 1,1-2,4.

And my personal opinion is: everything which does not believe in anything got no soul. (Atheist believe that there are no god, so some kind of believe)

P.S.: lost my internet in Frankfurt ;( now only on weekend I got the change to check DC.net)

happy eastern everyone...

When you bring intelligent/talking animals it always brings up issues in religion. Which is why I'm glad this is a comic.

[Dr. Sticks]

I don't think it's all too important whether or not it was correct or not, because Raine was stating it in order to point out that it was absurd. DCS is obviously using Dogs as as a parallel of african americans, and Raine as a parallel of her own transgenderism/transexualism.

But to be fair, the creation story was told twice in the bible. One of them had animals first and people second, the other had people first and animals second, and women third. Everyone's correct!

Oh dear... I even somewhat disagreed with what dan said about him having no right to say what is correct based on his own set of beliefs (etc), and yet I jumped on the bandwagon. I should have made that clear. Sorry Nick, I love you even more than Segovia.

[Rooster]

Dude, I have NO idea where this comic is going.

Weren't we talking about Russians only a few strips ago?

Also, props to whoever made the "all dogs go to heaven" quote before me!
