BRTD vs jmfcst: Who is the better Christian?

[opebo]

I think we have to leave these sort of judgments to the lion.  If I had to hazard a guess I would say that jmfcst must be pretty old and tough, and after all the bile of all that hatred, resentment, and frustrated sexuality must give the flesh a bad flavour.

Haha, I noticed Opebo posted in this thread and before even opening it I just knew he would talk about the lion.

The human spirit needs something to rely upon, sbane, and I am happy I could fulfill this role.  However I did more than just talk about the lion - I deferred to the lion.

opebo, you are a poor materialist. There is no such thing as the human spirit. You know this to be true.

I'm sure you know I was being facetious (and I really thought it was a rather funny little joke), but I would not go so far as to say I am a 'materialist'.

dude, I have you beat by a mile and a half, if not light years!  I knew, before opebo even posted, that opebo would be posting in this thread.  And I knew, before he posted, that when he did post he would mention a lion, which is why I mentioned me “living a facultative carnivorous lifestyle” in order to contrast myself with the lion’s obligate carnivorous lifestyle.

In fact, I was so certain he would post in order to mention a lion, I looked up the traits of a lion beforehand, so I could preemptively make a witty distinction between myself and the lion.

…and I did it all for the love of opebo – he is such the predictable putz.

As are you, old thing.  The fact is, this entire thread pretty much wrote itself, but hat's off to you for planting the seed.  Or wait, who posted this thread?

However, let me critique your prescience by asking.. why would you want to distinguish yourself from the lion?  Exigency would dictate that you distinguish yourself from BRTD - 'oh, now, mean ole' lion, I'm old and tough, and full 'o bile - now look at BRTD over there: young, plump, fresh, cheerful, and dripping with the milk of human kindness.  Yummy!'.
