I is sad now. I would like to make my argument, (which u know would be coming sometime in the near future. Can't spend 3 years around the paladin and not expect it adeco ). Unfortunatly dude you seemed to pick the most unfortunate time for me. My CPU on my laptop is fried and so it's slow goin' here on my Ipod touch. Any who, you know me, I'm Roman Catholic but I'm not offended by what you have said, perplexed yes, but offended no. I've taken enough people who were intending to insult me to not really care any more. Still for me as a Christian Catholic there is many things I would like to make my spill on, part of which just to make DVM facepalm at school tommorow, and the rest to fill in and perhaps give another perspective on something. I agreed, to a point, on somethings you said but others, not so much. It wouldn't be some rag on each other baseball bat to face if you don't conform to my ways but perhaps just a healthy dissusion of belief which would allow many here to grow spiritually. Still like I siad to do a full disscussion I would need a full comuter but for now I must make due. Perhaps we could just take it one bit at a time or something, I don't know. Got to figure some thing out, been on the iPod for atleast 30 minutes just typing this! Still love ya bro. Perhaps we can disscuss this soon then later...if I get a computer that is!

Haha! Poor iPod. But yeah I never intended to make anyone upset with me. It's just my train of thought. I see God in a different way tis all. I don't care much for religion because I don't think a man made organization can set a standard for something so great. But tell you what. We will discuss when I get back. Sound good?

\rant I have to agree with America totally being dumb about the environment. Global warming? Bah that could never happen to us. Wrong. . . It's happening because we're too dumb to understand that we are hurting the Earth. Were trying to go green. Wind mills, solar energy, electric cars. . . but the average Joe still needs to pay 4 dollars a gallon for gas! I think that we are becoming a fat and lazy society and are not concerned about anything or anyone but ourselves. Polar bears are going to be extinct in 50 or so years. So what/ We're cutting down rain forests and polluting the gulf. So what? Most of the worlds glaciers and ice sheets are breaking off into the ocean and releasing fresh water into the ocean. So what? I think it's about time somebody kicked some of these people in the mouth! If we took our greatest minds and put them to something other then creating weapons and military technology and concentrated on natural resources we could become a self sufficient society! We could stop buying tons of gas from the middle east and climb ourselves out of the huge debt trench we dug ourselves into. Maybe create more green jobs for the working man? But hey lets just waste time ruining the Earth for our grandchildren, we can just terraform Mars right ? \endrant Very passionate about the environment lol

Amen to that sister. Its good to see the youth of the world passionate about taking care of their mother. But do disagree with one thing. We aren't doing anything to the earth. Yes its becoming filth and stagnant but we will be gone before the earth goes. Its been through much worse than us. This explains it well.
Don't get me wrong. I want to take care of our home. If you don't we will be the cause of our own demise.

Now it's time for my two cents. XD lol
Well, I'll start by saying I understand where you're coming from. But I don't agree with everything you've said.
1. The way you look at life is interesting. I really don't agree with it all. Sorry, no offense. But I think it's amazing how you took the time and came up with your vision on life.
2. The beauty thing....well, I think I'm beautiful. I'm not vain but I think it's good for people to feel good in the skin their in. I'm not saying you have to get up and spend every morning doing your hair and makeup like I do. I'm not insecure, I just think it enhances my beauty when I make myself look my best. And when I look my best, I feel my best. But if you just run a brush through your hair every morning, that's fine with me. As long as you can love yourself for who you are. (But I must say people who don't keep up with body and oral hygiene....not big fans of. lmao.)
3. Religion....religion, religion, religion. lol. I agree with most of DB's points and corrections because well, Christianity sprung from Judaism. And I will tell you this right now, I am a Christian, but I don't divide myself in any religion. Basically because I hate religion. I attend a Baptists church once and a while though because they preach the word. Here's the thing about Islam, everybody says the three religion believe in the same God. While I believe that the story of their prophet and our Messiah are the same, our religions differ and I will never say I believe in the same God as them because I don't. My God doesn't tell me to kill those who don't believe in my faith. And that's one reason I don't like Islam, they're hypocrites. Now before you call me a hypocrite, our Bible doesn't contradict itself. Unless you see somewhere it has, which if you have you can start a debate and I will probably fight to the death with it. lol XD. But the Quran says to not kill anyone, yet kill people who don't believe in Allah. ? I don't know, I just don't see the connection between the two.
Ok, here's where I really get people pissed off at me. Well, this is my mother's philosophy really. I believe in Jesus....but at the same time, I believe I'm half-Jewish. Ok, before you all get pissed off here's our theory on that: We're descendants of Jesus Christ right? The trinity correct? Well, wouldn't that make us all half-Jewish? Seriously. Just consider it. Besides, I have nothing against Jews. Am I very happy they don't believe in Jesus Christ? Not really. would I ever marry a Jewish man? No, the two religions would clash too much and I will not deny Christ.
4. Yes! America has turned into just.......wow. Ok and we elected Obama? No offense to democrats out there but I wanted to leave the country when he was elected. lol. This country cares too much about money oh and can i mention the publicity we give celebrities? The kids in my old high school cared more about Jersey Shore the they did government!!!! It's unbelievable. I don't think we give the troops enough credit AT ALL! Really, we should be kissing their asses for what they've done for us. But now let's go kiss Snookie's ass from Jersey Shore. You have to be fricken kidding me.
Global warming? Eh, so-so. I think it would be good to go a little more green and definitely have products made her in America. But I just never really believe global warming. First off, it is still classified as a myth and second of all I watch a show called "Penn and Teller's Bull***" and they had a show about global warming and I believed most of that. I just think it's a bunch of....welll....bull****. lol XD
But in the end, very well-written and very well thought out. Kudos to that, buddy. I am kind of curious what Christians you've met that they have acted like that. lol. I hope I don't act like that. XD That would suck if I did and I hope I don't sound like that in my post. I just defend my faith. Sorry if I offend you in any way.
And I'm curious on one more thing that I think you should write about; love and marriage. Just out of curiosity I would like to hear your thoughts on that. Don't know why, I just do.

1.) Thank you for saying that I'm interesting lol.
2.) About beauty. I'm more focused on vanity. Taking care of yourself and presenting yourself self is one thing but taking time out of your life to look your peak and then make sure everyone sees that you are the best looking there is, that's what chaps my ass. Do your air and make up. Look well. I dress well and have begun trimming my beard. Why? Because I look nice and clean and prentable. I look in the mirror and know that I look good enough, in my standard, to go out and look well.
3.) Religion. Its a touchy subject I know. I meant no harm though a lot of people were deeply offended by my opinion on and off the site. But like any other religion out there and ever one ever to come about I see them all as myths. I mean. You wouldn't believe in the Greek gods would you? They're myths. You would take in the Iliad and The Odyssey because they are legends. That's all it is to me. To get a good picture on what I'm trying to say take Jonah living inside the big fish. It sounds like a fairytale. If the 3 little pigs were a story in the bible you'd believe it because of your faith.
Judaism seems to be the only religion to get it right. Christianity and Islam.... Both have been twisted and corrupt by the words and minds of men. That's why both of murdered and giving the excuse that "it was God's will." Its a load of rubbish! If God wanted them dead he would have done it himself. He did it before when we killed the firstborns in Egypt. He did it in the great flood, right? So why do it? Islam kills because it has too many fundamentals that they get confused but they all point to the non believer. The infidel. Islam either wants to make them submit to Islam or kill them.
But we all have our faith and way of salvation. Its only natural for humans to think of ways to feel comfort in times of trouble and about death. I'm not influencing anyone and I don't want to. I was just giving my opinion.
4). America..... the a** of the World. We are slowly spiraling into a collapse whether it be economic of resourceful. As far as politics go I'm a liberal. But tell you the truth, seeing how everyone behaves, I'm leaning more to communism. The purist form of Communism, not how we see it today. A society is everyone is free but have equal bounds. The government meets your needs and all you have to do is put in your work to keep the economy going and you would be rewarded in privileges. Unfortunately this country is far to materialistic to do that. Also the image of Communism have been stained with the corruption of man. Look at that! A pattern! An incredible idea screwed up by people!
I didn't vote for Obama. I voted for the lesser evil(McCain) at the time. Though he wasn't much better. But leave it to a democrat to mess everything up. It seems that all they want to do is give out money in the format of stimulus plans and health care plans and whatever else. The problem is we can't do all of that without MONEY! God dammit! We don't have any! We borrowed and borrowed and print out money from thin air to give it to people to the point that we are trillions of dollars in debt! What wrong when you're in debt? You have no money to spend! You have to take your money and budget it. when you have a huge debt most of it pretty much goes to you problem right? *sigh*.... I'm moving to Canada... LOL!
And you are absolutely right. No one cares. The video in my Wisdom board. "A time bomb is ticking and no one is listening." I can back that up with more sources. If you got a spare hour, this is really interesting. In fact I want to recommend this to every American member.
I also agree with you opinion on the armed forces. Do you realize that there are over 15,000 veterans living on the streets? Such respect could only come from good heart Americans right? Not only that 2,000 of them are from the Iraqi conflict. People don't care because they are only worried about themselves. So much that they have spent all of the money to even try to help them now. We can't build cheap homes for them or any of the homeless because we have no money. But I'm puzzled on why we still have the space program.... Bottom line is, soldiers go out of their way willing to give their own lives so that we can live ours. Even the government don't give a damn about their lives because its all a big game. That game is called the oil business. Obama promised to pull them out but only sent more. There's a song I want you to hear. PM me if you want it. It says it all.
Lastly, I don't believe in global warming either. For thousands of year the Earth as fluctuated is climate from hot and cold. This is no different. I'm not worried about the temperature I'm more worried about keeping the planet clean enough to sustain life. Think of it in a smaller scale. Imagine your room cluttered and dirty so much that you cant see the floor. Its hard to live in it right? Now imagine if their was so much garbage and dishes and clothes scattered about that you can't even get into your room unless you struggled to get in. Its like that.
Again thank you for your compliments and your feedback. Just no that I'm wouldn't be offended by anything to do with religion. I'm more mature than that. Also I'll get my entry on love and marriage started as soon as possible. you may or may not like it lol. Who knows.
Right now I'd like to take the time to say that this is how I want to run my wisdom board. Give me good feedback for us to discuss and give me an idea of what to write about next.
