A? Ka? Those poor Scottish boys! 'Hi, my name is A' What the heck?
I though America was bad!

I think you meant "Axle" for the "I Love My Car" bit.
Axel is an actual name. Axle, on the other hand, would be a pivotal child. I'm not offended or anything, I just found the mix-up hilarious, for personal reasons.

I know it's an actual name, but that's what I'd always think of when I heard it. Same as I'd think of a car if I heard Mercedes, even though I know it's a legit name

Islam?!
Honestly, what's wrong with Muhammad? Is this kid going to be followed up with Judaism, Christianity, and Sikhism? Twins Buddhism and Baha'i?

I think you misunderstood me..
The bit I found offensive was the implication that 'Pagan' was anti-relgious or anti-virtuous.
The bit I found offensive was the implication that 'Pagan' was anti-relgious or anti-virtuous.
Ah, ok. I checked on the web and although the term "Pagan" does refer to a religion, it has also come to mean:
* heathen: a person who does not acknowledge your god
* A person not adhering to any major or recognized religion, especially a heathen or non-Christian (often derogatory)
* A general term used for people who are not Christian, Jewish, or Muslim
I was thinking of the word in that sense, not the definition you are thinking of which is:
* A pagan is someone of Earth-centered polytheistic, ditheistic or pantheistic faith
But I can see how that might have been misunderstood, so I'm sorry. No offence intended!

A (Pagan) person that doesn't acknowledge your god or the Judeo-Christian God is still a person of a religion and should not be derogatory. Pagan as a derogatory term is as bad as calling someone a Jew in a derogatory sense.
Yes I agree, I didn't even realise I'd used it in that way until you pointed it out, sorry
