Does your faith influence or alter in any way, the manner in which you keep fish? If not, you're just a fishkeeper; join the club.

If the content of threads or responses offend you, and you think they're in breach of the MFK rules, you should report them.
viperman100;1693881; said:sure it does I does the amount of time, money, effort, love, devotion, etc... is based on my priorities which come directly from my religious belifes. the people I associate with as close friends on this site and other forums like this is also affected by my religious belifes. I do consider MFK a family but I dont agree with or confide in all my family members because some of them are pretty jacked up, (drug dealers and users and stuff) and I do the same on here.
besides that the point is what is acceptable in the Lounge forum, I have never told anyone what to feed their peacock bass based on a bible verse![]()

holy crap,whens the last time we talked fish in the lounge?This hase nothing to do with fish.Nothing in the lounge does.I found that out the hard way because i came here because i thought we would all have a foundation built on animal life.Turns out thier are tons of animal haters on here and guess what,deep down i want them banned but i dont ask because maybe something will strike them and change their hearts.I dont care if you hate what i beleive but the same as i hate the animal haters,leave me be.Ppl on here are ok with dog fights,horse fights,feeding and watching live prey get ripped apart and it bothers me.I may say a few things and if no response,i move on.To each his own.I believe in god,dont read my stuff if you hate it as i hate those other guys.Or at least their ways.japes;1693859; said:Does your faith influence or alter in any way, the manner in which you keep fish?

its like me saying if you hate cats or dogs,your hate is yours,keep it that way.Cn you tell me that their isnt more fighting on here over feeding live prey,and seperatly,animal fights and such.Something that can actualy hurt something.But thats ok because you can handle that,but you cant handle this.I cant handle that,but i do.Its a free world with some rules here and there.Did you know that if you didnt read those posts then you wouldnt have got mad.See the link.japes;1693895; said:I'm not trying to offend you, start a big argument, or question your religious beliefs, but would the amount of 'time, money, effort, love, devotion, etc..' be affected more prominently by your work ethic (time and money), recreational activities (time) and general lifestyle. Now I understand how you can think that religion does play a 'direct' part in these, but are you implying that if you weren't religious, you wouldn't treat living animals in the same manner as you currently do?
I can't see the good in that.
I've seen numerous posts in this section of the forum pertaining to the Christian god being the only god and general preaching of the bible to people that are smart enough to make up there own minds, I think this is where the problem lies, not with religion as a whole. Really though, this is a fish forum, even The Lounge, as the title says, your religion is yours, keep it that way.
