    So Garreth says:
    But if you ignore God like Ive done, Satan will take control of your lives like he did to me.

    Perhaps if we understood your circumstances we'd better understand your belief in God. In what way did Satan control your life?

    Well one thing I will tell you and tell you once.

    Satan really "bugged" me, if you know what I am saying. Now you have got the message, you must convert and you know you must for what you are doing is from Satan himself.

    Please tell me you aren't trying to tell us that Satan hid listening devices around your home.

    I respect your beliefs Gareth but you dont need to tell people they must convert. I got enough of that in school growing up been told to be a god fearing bla bla and not having a choice, thats mainly why I turned my back on the church.
    When I die I dont care if I go to heaven or just simply cease to exist anywhere. What are you going to do if your wrong and you spend your life telling people to convert to a religion and then when your dieing you look back on life and realise , ya know what I only had one shot at this life and rather than enjoy myself I spent it oreaching to people who dont want to hear about it. Then ya die and maybe you go to "gods" house or whatever, then you'll be happy, then again you could just cease to exist anywhere and that will be a waste of a life.
    Im not telling you to stop preaching to people, cos your not going to change my mind anyways, just try live your life for you and not spend it trying to make people holy. If people want to belive they will, if they dont then there is nothing you can do about it mate.

    :)

    Gareth, going by your posting history, you frequent the Gambling fora quite a lot... is that not against your religion?

    Gateth. I am fast becoming tired of your continual efforts to convert all us heathen. Now you have shifted to singling out individuals for conversion. This is a no no. Please refrain from this practice otherwise you leave me no choice but to enforce the Boards.ie Forced Vacation Policy. As they say "play the ball, not the man."

    PS, you can't have Zillah, we need him and Satan would have no idea how to deal with him.

    why are people giving this Gareth guy the time of day!!! He is obviously a very confused guy and giving him a forum to rant on about his (ahem someone elses) ideas is plain ridiculous

    I think we're a little more thick skinned than that :) At least in reference to myself, please allow him all the liberty you can allow. I shall be neither upset not overwhelmed at personal attempts for conversion. Plus, its not like I've not singled out others for the spotlight of discussion, it'd be a little hypocritical of me to then duck behind the mods.

    I assume this is what you were hinting at Gareth: Link

    I'll take a wild shot here and try to put the pieces together:

    You have discovered that some well known Irish business is in league with Satan or at least has him on their Board of Directors, they intend to bring about the final battle between Good and Evil however they have discovered that you know their secret and you are the only person who can stop their evil plan from coming to fruition. To prevent this they have hired private investigators to get at you and also drugged you and sabotaged your brakes in an attempt to get you out of the picture.

    Dudess points out you are on the Gambling forum often, I am guessing this is an attempt to recon the enemy because I conclude from the evidence that the well known Irish company headed by Beelzebub himself is none other than Paddy Power Bookmakers.

    Am I right?

    This is awesome. I couldn't have hoped for better. He means he literally was bugged by Satan.

    SEE?! This is why I'm curious what drives people!

    .
    Fair enough, I am the ones that has to deal with all the reported posts, so just doing my part of the job.
    If Gareth decides to persists, then it is open day for Martyrdom. Just try to be as nice as possible:)
    PS, I could never, ever, picture you ducking behind the mods

    Amusing as it was for a while, the whole conversion thing is wearing thin, and is in danger of turning A&A into After Hours.

    To cut a long story short, Gareth37, unless you produce a reasoned response or a worthwhile point - it's End of Days for you here.

    Yup, as I understand it, he sees you when you're sleeping, knows when you're awake, knows if you've been bad or good, so...

    No, wait...

    I think I get what you are hinting at, but if I'm wrong it could be rather embarrassing for both of us so I won't say it.

    I looked at that message, and his original messsage for about 5 minutes before I got it :) I just kept thinking of insects and thinking 'what are they on about!'. Get it now, it's quite a personal thing so, and we shouldnt press him on it.

    You think that fella that shouts complex morality lectures at the bins on Grafton Street wouldn't be able to find his way onto boards? Given that we have an entire forum dedicated to mustard, isn't it likely he's even above an above average user in the basketcase stakes?

    To be honest I was thinking along the lines of Schizophrenia or maybe Schizo-affective disorder. Either that or he's having a laugh but to be honest I think the poor guy has a lot of serious issues. I've studied alot of Psychology. I'm not saying I can diagnose but I've read about this sort of thing before.
