The Lanyard Police

[Palerider957]

If it had been a black,or a pilot of middle eastern decent, with an Islamic related slogan, no one WOULD HAVE DARED to make a remark.

It's ok to bash white Christians, it's not OK to bash a religion that might actually want to hurt us.

This is all the more reason not to talk to the live stock. If a pax has asked "they let you wear that", not knowing what she was talking about, I would have just smiled and walked away.

Perfect example of the prejudice I'm talking about. Ironic that you use such a prejudice to decry percieved prejudice toward yourself.

Religions don't want to hurt people. Individuals want to hurt people.

Let me put your asinine statement in your terms: True or False, all gun owners want to kill people?

Excellent statement. Unless they're asking an appropriate question at an appropriate time (e.g. "where is gate C-xx"?) I usually give them a stupid look and walk away.

After reading some of these posts all I can say is... wow.

Religious extremism scares me... whether it's Islamic fudamentalist Terrorists bombing the WTC and bridges in Iraq, or Christian fundamentalist Terrorists bombing abortion clinics. Yet the latter is acceptable because it's in the name of Christ.

Why do "Christians" think they get a pass at forcing their religion on other people, but then point at the other religions who do the same as being wrong? Why does every Christian have to be a amateur evangelist?

If you don't want to have religious debates, don't wear a Jesus lanyard in public. It's that simple. And if you do, then don't tell me or others what our religion should be. We're not interested in your opinions. Don't get upset when we politely tell you to piss off.

Especially on a supposedly aviation related website. Go to one of the millions of religious sites for this crap.

Sounds like somebody needs Jesus.

More like somebody needs some BBQ? What about BBQ? How come we never talk about BBQ anymore? What about an "I Love BBQ" lanyard? I'd wear one of those.

The guys at XJet could have an "I Love Meetball Subs" Lanyard.

At ASA, I have an "I Love Contract Negotiations" Lanyard.

Actually I would have worn an "I love Panchito's breakfast taco" lanyard.

No bible thumper (as I'm into my 10th drink or so....), but how about......
"Q: What would Jesus fly into the World Trade Center?? A: " Nothing, it's Mohammed's job."

I'll be happy to make them if I get enough potential orders............

Hey, you must be Catholic! Me too!

You have an order

i like passing a boston red sox lanyard wearer with my ny yankees lanyard!!

 

[bustinmins]

I bet if it said "I LOVE SECULAR ATHIOCRACY" she wouldn't have said a thing, except maybe "Wow! Where'd you get that cool lanyard!"

I'm not a hard core Bible thumper either (not even close), but I'd wear a Jesus lanyard just to tick off any PC nazi who could possibly be ticked off by a Jesus lanyard. :beer:

You do that and I'll bring my Mala (Prayer Beads). I'll sit on the flight deck and just chant....that should calm them down.

If someone made an "I Love Potbelly's" lanyard I would buy one. It's the only good thing about going to the Dulles airport.

I thought about getting a Cubs lanyard, but I was based in St. Louis when I first started in the airline industry, so that would've required me constantly hanging my head in shame. Then I thought about getting a Bears lanyard, but then I moved to Indy, same problem <sigh>

[McNugget]

because thats not as cool as I love Jesus

You are absolutely correct, the libs would not see anything wrong with that.

 

[ReverseSensing]

What are you talking about? You bought 3 of my I heart Lamar lanyards!!!???

Only because I thought they made a clever and ironic noose with which to hang my Lamar, Spike, and Art Thomas dolls in effigy from my rear-view mirror. I ripped the head off my Dupont doll and skewered it on an AOA vane. It was wicked cool.

 

[McNugget]

Intolerance serves nobody but Satan. Think about that.

Same goes for Delta Connection, maybe I will make that into a lanyard.
