Reply to Swimming As If My Life Depended On It in Blogging Stardock Forums

So, you trespass and use somebody's pool without permission? That seems pretty odd to me. I sure wouldn't do that, if no other reason than the chance of getting a bacteria from the untreated pool, or to get a chemical reaction from the unbalanced chemicals. Of course, I tend to not use other people's stuff without their permission, either. Why don't you just sign up at a local pool for classes? I am sure you would learn more from an instructor.

[quote]Maybe she did, maybe she didn't, depends upon your personal viewpoint, but it quite clearly and definitively illustrated the difference between a reasoned response and an emotional one.[/quote] No, all it illustrated was somebody not being able to control their response. Sorry, Mason, but I just don't get it. How many people have you said "fuck you" to their face? I guess if that is a normal response for you, then I see why you said it. But, I have neve

[quote]I can't speak for Mason, but I do understand why he said it! Seriously![/quote] Oh, I can see why somebody would say it, but I still don't think it's appropriate. In all my many many years of online communications, I have never said "fuck you" to anyone. It's not like she said something equally horrible to him. It may have been condescending, but I don't think she deserved that treatment. [quote]And as our country must change with the times, as we gro

[quote]Now you've gone and hurted her precious little feelsies.[/quote] Well, I have to say, saying "fuck you" to anyone is probably going to upset them. Not sure it's appropriate to say that to anyone, even if you don't like them. Having Gays get married bothers me, too. It's a slippery slope. If Gays have "rights" why don't polygamists? Why is polygamy less natural than homosexuality? Considering there are more women then men, wouldn't it be

[quote]Denying the rights of any individual is wrong! When does human rights enter into this equation?[/quote] Actually, America used to be a Democracy. We used to adhere to "majority rules" and make laws for the majority (for the people, by the people, is a majority act, not an individual act.) America was fonded on Christian values, and Christianity is still the leading religion in America. However, we have degraded our system over time and now have the bizarre reasonin

I don't have a problem with Gay unions, but I still believe that "marriage" is sacred, and is between a man and a women. It also does effect people- you just don't know it. When your company drops health care for married couples do to the increased cost due to gay marriage, you'll realize how many things are effected by it (Gays are at a higher premium due to the % of AIDS among gays versus heterosexuals). My sensibility is against Marriage for anyone but one man

Ivan, how many times are we going to go through this? Support has been giving you the same answers, yet you keep bringing this up. Alpha's are Alpha's. They are a step below a beta. Write documents on Alphas? I'm not even sure why we are putting out Alphas. So, I'll admit that we screwed up there- we shouldn't have put an Alpha out on Impulse. Otherwise, I'm sorry that you aren't happy with a product that you purchased years ago that NOW you are

Reply to The origin of Karma, Sukarma and Kukarma in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

Hmmm..I wonder if the American version of Hinduism is a bit changed. I have always seen karma as translating to "deed" or "action", not "work" or "labor". It might be a translation thing, though. I've always heard the term "papakarma" for the actions that lead the soul away from the spiritual goal and "punyakarma" for the actions that lead the soul toward the spiritual goal. Buddhist karma is a lot more complicated, but in the end, both mean basically the same.</
