If I may just throw my two cents in here... What Naois_DragonGirl brought up was relevant to the thread. In the Bible, David was the youngest of his siblings but by no means a physically weak man. According to the Bible he did indeed, as she mentioned, kill bears and lions with his bare hands. Whether you believe this or not is irrelevant to the discussion, it is fact that the story goes that way. Now if you want to create a story where David's accomplishments are nothing more than a fantasy he's having whilst high on marijuana, that is your right and your prerogative. That's what this thread was made for, to come up with creative stories. What I'm fairly certain this thread was not made for is you to have a place to spout your insensitive and religiously intolerant ideas. There is no need to be insinuating that something from anyone's religious texts are the result of some drug-induced stupor. I will thank you to keep such things to yourselves in the future.
EDIT: Since apparently this was moved, the context for this exchange was a "Creative Challenge" thread about David from the Bible.
Did you really need to smite me? IT WAS A JOKE. I honestly apologize for offending you in any way, but people (at least in my country) have the right to make a joke, which at least one person has laughed at. There was no need for getting angry, as I'm not saying that the events in the Bible did not happen, I have taken no shots at the existence of God or any other deity, and have taken no shots at the existence of the characters (in this sense people) in the Bible. However, if you're going to be angry at me, I might as well: Sure the Bible says that David killed a bear and a lion with his bare hands. It also says there was a virgin birth (biologically impossible in humans), that a man made another man rise from the dead (along with several other people, and not to mention the various cured ailments), a snake spoke, there's a wondrous city in the clouds, a malevolent torture dungeon in the ground, and men and women with wings exist. I personally believe that the Bible (at least the New Testament. The Old Testament seems like the Dictator's Manifesto) was a very well-written narrative with a well-known and well-received message of peace, love, and affection, backed by the historical existence of a very good guy named Jesus of Nazareth, who went around helping people, trying to unite them against evil things. That's my belief. And as such, I feel it's okay to make a joke about a NARRATIVE. Again, if you feel differently, that's fine. Don't respond to the joke. I was not being intolerant. Being intolerant is saying "Them damn Christians, with all their ramblings about peace and love and confessions, they ought to get out of our country!", or "The Jews are stealing our jobs. Lock them in the gas chambers!" (that's more genocide than intolerance, but the Holocaust stemmed from Hitler getting the rest of Germany hateful enough towards the Jews to go along with what he wanted), or "Sacrilegious Muslims are attacking our country. Persecute them to oblivion!"
THAT is intolerance. What I said was a joke. When people are high, they do and see VERY WEIRD things, like dancing aliens with monkey heads balancing on a unicycle while singing "Roar". That is what happens a lot in the Bible. VERY WEIRD things, such as turning a sea red, or bringing a man back from the dead. Put those two together? There is no need for anger. If you like the joke, great. If you don't, great. Also, if you picked Smite in the hopes that God would actually give a shit this ONE TIME that someone made a joke about his religion and execute me with a lightning bolt and a boom of thunder, I'M STILL ALIVE!
