The framing of "God's love" you just gave is a very important one and completely true. I'm no theist and I also stand with Stephen Fry on the issue. But I'm pretty sure that Xhieron was trying to express something genuine and positive. Maybe don't be so harsh to someone who was clearly trying to follow Jesus's teachings to love thy lemmy user as thyself?

He always said he was "The Bad Guy," is anyone really surprised?
Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. Simply because we lack proper primary sources concerning Jesus from during his lifetime does not mean that he never existed. Additionally, those who would care most about the existence of Jesus couldn't care less about historical proof; they've already accepted everything on faith. You are free to be technically correct (the best kind of correct), but it's a meaningless hill to die on.

Super Mario RPG (SNES) loved it so much. My buddy and I left our Earth Science final early just to finish the game (still passed with a 79 and 80 respectively).

Street Fighter II World Warriors (Arcade) can still taste the pizza I ate right before I played. My grandpa would take me out to pizza every Friday and gave me 2 quarters to play.

The original TMNT (NES) I still get anxiety just from hearing the music from the swimming level. But then again I get a great burst of joy from hearing the overworld music. Such an emotionally taxing game.
I lived right next to a Mosque in Kensington (that opened up without a proper permit in a residential zone a year after I purchased my property). They used to broadcast their prayers at ungodly volume. It was loud as hell, would cut through my headphones and ruin any ability I had to do anything, even think straight. I made numerous noise complaints but nothing was ever done by the NYPD. Got so bad that I finally sold the place and moved somewhere dominated by orthodox Jewry just because I knew they'd serve as a bulwark against me ever having to hear any prayers again.
I'm sure that the people who think this is a good idea view it as a simple matter of religious freedom. It is not. My experience was one of having someone else's religion thrust upon me. Church bells are annoying and loud, but they do not contain actual religiosity. I was always taught that my rights ended when I infringe upon someone else's rights. Broadcasting prayers so loud it can be heard above the ambient noise in NYC is trampling on my rights to exist free of religion.
Believe whatever you want, but keep it to yourself. I feel awful for everyone who lives near a mosque in NYC.
