I know what you mean. I cannot believe the wierd shit that I've come up with here. The ones I hate the worst though are the controversial ones I whore myself for for points. The ones I like best like the blank computer screen one or the roadside park sex story drew the least attention. But what I decided is: Who am I doing this for anyway? 'course I won't bitch if you stop by my place and leave a few, er, uhh....points! Hang in there and do your own th

Like the late Redd Foxx said: "If ya don't drink, smoke or eat lots of red meat, your gonna feel like a damn fool someday a layin' up in the hospital dyin' from nothing". Somebody or some thing will always have to die so you can live. A cold, but true, fact of life. I'll have a double meat cheesburger & large order of fries please...

I hear you brother! I think that we have to forgive all right. But forgiveness does NOT mean swinging open the prison door and letting them go their merry way. We forgive to get US off the hook.

When will a guy just come up to me grab me and tell me? Because guys don't want to get the shit slapped out of them and be called a pervert. That's what would happen 99% of the time. All a girl has to do is drop a few inviting hints!

I don't think God is a lucky charm that we carry around to keep us from having flat tires. If you have a flat tire, or a car wreck, get cancer, get divorced, loose your job, break you leg, aquire an addiction, can't get laid, etc. then... DEAL WITH IT! To me, God is the Truth, the Reality of Existence, the Awareness of the way things are, Robert Pirsig's "Quality" that creates the world. Satan is lies and self-dellusion and defeatist sympathy seeking a

Reply to How Do You Define Heaven and Hell? in Religion JoeUser Forums

I think that Heaven is the day-to-day living in the realistic now with no illusions and an awareness of the universe around you and your place in it.
