Title: Re: Do not buy pepsi products Post by: Yamahaownz on February 11, 2006, 08:26:44 PM yeah that has been going around for a long time, my step dad works for pepsi and hasnt even heard of this idea. quite funny actually. so i dont even think that that can will even go into production. i will keep drinking pepsi, its a beverage and whats on the outside doesnt matter its whats on the inside that counts ;)

Yunt, i love ya man but youre gonna put me in the unenjoyment line with stuff like this, and im kinda partial to my job. Heres a lil quiz for ya bud, since youve banished my employer from your grocery list. Can you name all of the products that are owned or manufactured through Pepsi Co?? Id bet w/out cheating you would have a hardtime coming up w/ atleast 6, just from the northamerican beverages division. What you need to realize is that pepsico, manufactures their products all over the world, not just here in the good ol us of a. Believe it or not there are cultures across the globe who do not share the same religious beliefs as your 95%. I am pretty sure they didnt skip out on the patriotic can, just to be controversial, or sell out in any kind of way. They are simply trying to be fair and partial to all of their customers across the globe.PepsiCo prides on DIVERSITY. Just as it may have upset you that they didnt include this small phrase on the can, it very well may upset someone on the complete other side of the world if they had. After all, your not gonna home school your kids, just because they might banish the pledge of allegiance in their schools. Religious belief is a constitutional right, and to tell someone they have to beleive in god, just because the majority of the population has the same belief, not only is it one sided, but unconstitutional. Latin America, Asia/Pacific, United Kingdom, Europe, Middle East, Africa. Were talkin about the globe man, its not that theyre affraid of offending anyone here at home, but possibly somewhere on the other side of the world. Can you imagine the responsibility that , that in itself entails from an advertising and marketing stand point. Not just a few good ol boys here and there but entire cultures, or countries. You never see anything religious or partaining to religion or religious affiliation,on that box the ups man drops off or fedex, why, because theyre not dealing w/just you and i, they ship millions of packages everyday across the entire globe. Not to argue but to point out a few simple facts to try and open a few eyes, that we are not the only people on this earth.

Title: Re: Do not buy pepsi products Post by: Mudneck on April 07, 2006, 03:29:54 PM DIET PEPSI & CPTN MORGAN UMMMMMMMMMMMM ;)
Got one right now suckers!!!!!!!!!!!! :N Title: Re: Do not buy pepsi products Post by: Mudneck on April 07, 2006, 03:32:21 PM Subject: FW: Believe or not to believe...up to you
Sad but True, be safe they're not done yet I'm sending this to all my family & friends, those whom I cherish and love. My friend Victoria's son was in a neighborhood corner store making a purchase. A man of Arab decent was in line in front of him, according to her son the man was short a dollar, the African American woman working behind the counter asked him how much was he short, he told her and she said it was okay and let him go. According to her son the man thanked her and said now I'll do something for you, don't drink Pepsi in September and he walked out of the store. I can't verify if this is true or not, and it's not meant to scare anyone, only to make sure you are all safe. I have suggested she tell somebody (besides me) about this, but just in case she don't I want to inform you to be careful. I'll continue to pray for your safety and that of others, please do the same, it's our only hope. Love: Mae ( N.Y. ) Title: Re: Do not buy pepsi products Post by: Joedirt on April 07, 2006, 03:41:55 PM Thank you for cherishing and loving me..... ::)
Title: Re: Do not buy pepsi products Post by: Mudneck on April 07, 2006, 03:48:10 PM yur wlcm..
Oh crap cain reads this hell go on for 3 days again. The way he always brings it up ya almost wanna think cover up??? Title: Re: Do not buy pepsi products Post by: superstar on April 07, 2006, 03:52:20 PM Did either of you fellas read the part where it was determined to be a false email.....and there will be no such can?..relax guys ;D I read the whole thing. No need to relax, im not worked up. I dig yunt and the whole crew, i think theyre all good guys. Just simply stating a few facts, whether this e-mail or whatever was true or not, really makes no difference. This is the type of reaction we all instantly have to incidents like this. My intent is simply to go a lil deeper and to inform or point out those few facts, on this certain subject. As for the goth fella, you sir are an individual and you should be proud of that. Your life style doesnt offend anyone, scare may be a better word for it, but only due to the fact that most people are affraid of what they dont understand, only to down or shun it to be freakish or unruly. Although a lil out of place on this website, it is who you are, and if you support the same causes as everyone on here then youre ok by me. Ride On!! >:DTitle: Re: Do not buy pepsi products Post by: dreadhed on April 07, 2006, 08:54:08 PM > >95 Percent of the people in the United States I dought it is 95% that belive in "Under God". It's pry 95% don't care. But even if you right why should the rest have to leave the country? Wasn't part of the reason for this counrty was to worship as you like? Also do you know why "Under God" was put in the Pledge of Alligence? It is Goverment propgenda from the cold war. I would like it to stay my self but I would never say some one should leave here just cause they disagree with me. But I also belive you should be allowed to burn the flag if you want. I know alot of people will disagree with me but that is what makes this country so great.> Believe in " Under God" The > >5 > >percent that may be offended should get their a$$e$ > out of the United > >States.

Title: Re: Do not buy pepsi products Post by: Hoosier Daddy on April 09, 2006, 10:19:25 AM Why are yall drink Pepsi anywho... its a yankee drink....
stay with Coke... Title: Re: Do not buy pepsi products Post by: Want2Ride2 on April 09, 2006, 10:52:57 AM Superstar, This was found to be false, thanks to Snopes. I still buy pepsi products because it was false. But here is how the email was sent.
Pepsi has a new > "patriotic" can coming out > >with pictures of the Empire State Building, and the > Pledge of Allegiance on > >them. However, Pepsi left out two little words on > the pledge, > > > > > > > >"Under God." .......... Now just say it was true. I do not think that pepsi would produce this can for any other country other than the good ole USA so other countries would not get offended unless they were visiting us and I had rather Pepsi offend people visiting us instead of take a chance of offending the other 95% that resides here. I thank pepsi for NOT producing this can unless it would have Under God as part of it. Title: Re: Do not buy pepsi products Post by: superstar on April 09, 2006, 01:34:04 PM ;)
Title: Re: Do not buy pepsi products Post by: mikeE36 on April 09, 2006, 10:58:57 PM you have to realize that as part of living here in america that we dont have to say under god. thats our choice
Title: Re: Do not buy pepsi products Post by: Chuck_Norris on April 10, 2006, 06:51:32 AM you have to realize that as part of living here in america that we dont have to say under god. thats our choice THE OTHER CHOICE IS TO SPEND ENTERNITY IN HEAVEN OR HELL THAT IS ALSO WITHIN YOUR CONTROL OR CHOICE AS YOU SAY Amazing as we approach a special time of the year that being Easter people still would for go the true meaning and continue to bash the Christian faith. It is not my goal to force Biblical standard upon you although I refferre to them on a regular basis. makes for a godd moral standard. I stand for My GOD, My FAMILY and My COUNTRY. It is unfortunate that as time passes and the Exposure to Christ is being silenced it is clear and understandable why people just dont care, or just dont know. The Church can not ressurect what is already dead at the Home. Sorry to hijack your post Yunt2 and I dont want to turn this thread into a biblical debate. If you want to know more about or debate Chirst PM me and we'll chat with an open mind we both might learn something. I learned this weekend that that there is and FSU proffessor that states the Jesus did not walk on water he was merely floating on a slab of ice. ??? boy if that is the case have you ever tried that. that is trying to stay standing on something that floats let alone a chunk of ice. that in it's self is a miracle.
