Well, I certianly don't understand what is going on anymore. Ah well, the voices in my head tell me it's ok.
You have got to be fucking kidding me. Nowhere do you find more disgusting people than among those proclaiming themselves religious.
There are no words capable of expressing how hard I laughed.
"The High Priest Not to Be Described (Elder Hierophant, Tcho-Tcho Lama of Leng) is the sole occupant of a remote and ancient monastery on the Plateau of Leng in the Dreamlands. He serves the Outer Gods and may be Hastur, the servant of the crawling chaos Nyarlathotep (or he may even be Nyarlathotep himself).
The monastery where he dwells has a confusing tangle of lightless corridors with disturbing frescoes that chronicle Leng's bloodcurdling history. Deep in the bowels of the monastery, inside a frightening domed room, the High Priest Not to Be Described sits on a throne of gold atop a stone dais in pitch-black darkness. Five steps down from the dais is a row of six blood-stained stone altars surrounding a yawning well that is rumored to connect with the Vaults of Zin in the underworld."

bursts into thread, ignorant to what's been posted
I never thought Kuma was some kind of saint. Notice how a lot of manga characters have crosses with them, 'cause I guess that's "the style" in Japan.

EDIT: By the way the "Just as planned" joke isnt even funny in the slightest

All I needed out of that quote, thanks.
sorry guys… it went all wrong >> damn i meant smt different. my english sometimes rlly sux --
Yes, Kuma is clearly a mysterious character. I'm wondering how this character's themes of religion, former (and maybe still current) tyrant, and paw man all come together.

this is shaping up to be a hall of shame thread.

you obviously dont get it-he was quoting my sig,and thusly DESCRIBING the person,whose names is "High Priest NOT to Be Described".I actualy saved all of our asses just in time.
All of these poor attempts to be funny and/or clever are making my head hurt.
I request a lock.
Youve OBVIOUSLY never read H.P.Lovecraft.

Oh how wrong you are.

So your sig is a Lovecraft reference then? Wait, if that thing isn't to be described… isn't it your sig that is actually describing it?
Theres much more.I only ALUDE to it.Plus,my sig isnt read.
If it wouldnt be so monstrously big and shity quality in that size,it wouldve been real funny.
…but that's what makes it funny. You must not have taste.
Lobo just go get some sleep. its way past your bedtime again.
I got up at 12:00.And its barely 3:49 AM.

And this either needs a lock now or some mod to come in and order us to "get on topic". I'm leaning towards the first.

Anyways, I do actually like the Insanity that represents the monstrously huge Dicky Moe pic that Carter posts. At least it's better than the weird thing from that Zelda cartoon.

This thread has restored my faith in humanity.
Seriously. This is not sarcasm. I cannot say that seriously enough.
NOT SARCASM
Skarlath just who do you think you are, making replies like that? It's so self-centered! Like we all care about whether you're sarcastic or not…
lol just kidding, I don't care either way.
Rave, there are two lessons you should learn from this:
1. Make more threads.
2. Tell us more about what you're thinking.
Nowhere do you find more disgusting people than among those proclaiming themselves religious.
The next sentence should read: Religion is bad because that's what the TV and Green Day tell me.
Anyway, I don't think we've seen enough about him to judge anything about him for certain. If anything we saw compassion and a willingness to disobey direct orders, or did you forget the part where he said he'd let everyone go in exchange for Luffy?
From what very little we've seen of him he seems to be something of an Ao Kiji, the 'just following orders' type.
As far as him marching around with a Bible, I never saw that as an indication of him being a pacifist or religious or anything even remotely similar. I always thought it seemed far more likely he would be carrying the thing around in order to understand the thoughts of people unlike himself. Know thy enemy and shit. I dunno, but I certainly don't think what we've seen thus far establishes him as ruthless, he's just performing duties asked of him which comes as a part of the responsibility of the power and title he carries.
Since everybody's replying to this quote…

It's a really stupid generalization in the first place, obviously, but then to use that twisted logic when discussing fictional characters in a Japanese comic series about pirates? Clearly you just wanted to vent about religion.
I am religious myself, as is my whole family, so I can speak from experience when I say you're full of shit. But alas I know you were just being angsty, so that's why I shrugged upon reading it in the first place. lol
Now about Kuma being religious. He's based on Black Bart, obviously, who was known for being "religious" and having a Bible too, right? So that's the simple reason for why he was given it by Oda. I like the theory that his Bible has a teleportation fruit, and I think that's the reason why he carries it everywhere. Whether there's some kind of spiritual dimension to Kuma himself, I bet he thinks of himself as a "born-again" type of guy, having quit his "tyrant" ways. Now he's obeying the government and has some sort of quasi-religious legalistic righteousness attitude, where he sees it as a holy thing to kill for the government.
The next sentence should read: Religion is bad because that's what the TV and Green Day tell me.
Actually it should be: Religion is bad because it´s a mockery of faith.
And as far as Mavado´s statement is concerned - Even for AP I´m surprised at the reading comprehension of some folks here. He didn´t say tha ALL religious people are disgusting people. He said, that you can find the most disgusting people among those that CLAIM themselves to be religious. This means a) not all religious people are like that and b) claiming to be religious doesn´t not automatically make you religous.
Cut the guy some slack. It´s not like the statement is wrong or how do you explain murder in gods name?
Spare us your proverbs.
I'm assuming the segue between "reflection powers" and "bear paws" is some kind of Japanese homonym, but how do reflection powers turn into paw bullets and compressed air bombs?
Not to mention, if he doesn't have teleportation powers like we all assumed, where the heck is Perona?
He didn´t say tha ALL religious people are disgusting people.
But you just did:
Religion is bad because it´s a mockery of faith.
Talk about sweeping generalizations.
hmm.. we need more actions of Kuma to fully understand his power. foe now, i think his true power is something related to air pressure.eg:
• Kuma can compress the air around him to make a jet-like attack. the way he attack franky is similar to franky's coup de vent. he also can compress the air to make it explode once he release them..just like a bomb.. eg:atomic bomb:- they compress the atom to make it explode…
• he can reflect any attacks with high pressure air with his hand. (zorro)
• he also can attack with a low pressure air to disturb his oponent's breathing just like he did to zorro.
• he ask his opponent where they like to go for vacation... once they answered , he check his 'bibble' the coordinate or direction, then touch them with his bear palm hand, create a very high pressure air force, n push them away with air pressure in an instant.
• that's why they called him a violence SCBK; sent people to their dream place in a violent way...
• the conclussion is, his power is something that related to air pressure...but im not sure how that can be relate to a bear palm hand.(?)
Wow, of all the people I never would have guessed that you wouldn´t get the difference between faith and religion. I´m rather disappointed. :(
I have an idea about this teleportation think. Kuma can push air to shot with his pressure. then i thought on the other side he can push the air to move his body with lightspeed too?
that could be a reason for his teleportation!?
Of all the people I thought would give something beyond a veiled insult as a response.
Sorry Greg, didn´t mean to offend you. I was just surprised that you took what I said the completely opposite way.
Yeah, with this chapter Kuma´s powers are more confusing then before when we didn´t know what fruit he ate. I mean what does pawns have to do with air power?
I liked the thread better when Lobolover was getting confused over how macros work.
While I agree that faith and religion can be separate, I for one don't believe in sitting in church every Sunday, that doesn't mean all interpretations of religion mock faith.
I often use this example but my grandmother sitting in a pew once a week praying for others, giving money to local charities and hanging a cross in her room certainly isn't a mockery of faith.
I personally don't see any of that having any real-world effects, beyond the donations, because it's not something I believe in, but she's not cheapening what faith stands for, it's just her way of celebrating her faith.
Getting on television and 'healing' people and shit or preaching a certain faith because it's popular 'with a demographic of voters' or even claiming your church has a artifact with some Saint's blood on it is.
But that's them and not everyone believes in that. While I agree there is a thin line, just like aethist wacko's that proudly mock religion get the spotlight in media, so do religious freaks that don't stand for anything most people of faith carry.
Which is why I get miffed when people give off the, "Oh yeah, religion is bad, just ask Wikipedia and my favorite band.", attitude.
