Viviane:- agreed, but sometimes the obvious can get lost between nowhere than anywhere in particular. I hope that is obvious.-:)

Rebel With A Cause....
by The Rebel in" only the good die young".
or at least they remain eternally young and heroic particularly if they died for you.
the trouble is we can outgrow our hero worship and our opinions of that person can change.. this is what has happened to me with my childhood friend and my hero jesus.

Vidiot:- If you were a solely practical person you would say " a complete and utter lunatic" is a viable option ( only joking Viviane or did I mean Vidiot)

What does your baptism mean to you now?
by GiftsinMen ini was baptised on 1st sept 1990, 25years ago today.
it is still a date with deep meaning for me.
i never dedicated my life to serving any man or any organisation, this was my choice - as a grown adult - to serve my god through jesus christ.

And outside the emotional vulnability of putting our feelings " out there" some still choose to " nick pick"

Umbertoecho:- this i believe will be a great thread you have started.
Umberto- Echo:- is an Italian semiotica and philosopher, so you chose a great user name. As for your Art:-
For me " Art" has only one rule " does it work"?
Often mine doesn't.
I think your art is great, and I would appreciate you explaining the thoughts behind your pictures. Although if you wish I am happy to comment with my assumptions...

p.s I read your introductory bio and past threads.

GodZoo:- ." makes my baptism about as significant as my first puff off a cigarette, my first exsperience with alcohol, my first frolic with a girl and my first punch up...."
So wrong !! I bet your first puff on a cigarette was fun, your first experience of alcohol fun ( if you didn't puke up ) As for your first frolic with a girl (This is something I bet you never tire of repeating) So that only leaves your first punch up, and let me put you in my shoes on that one, Well that was quite significant to me, and believe me on that one baptism wins every time.

Sweetp0985:-
It sounds like your baptism was an occasion for your step-mom.
That raises an interesting point, maybe often a baptism can be the joyous occasion for parents, guardians or study conductors, rather than the person baptised. I call this "ego " rather than " love". ( once again the genuine meaning of " love" is misunderstood)

Agreed LoveUnHateExams:-
But " GIftsinMen" got baptised and made a dedication to " God" and that dedication is very commendable and sincere. All I would add is your user name " GiftsinMen" does not balance with the bible passage " Do not put your trust in man". So you do what your heart tells you and your heart will " hear" and answer " at the deepest level" and don't let us or any " idiot elders or bonkers organisation change that"
The Rebel.
p.s maybe iam over using the word " love" but "loved" your term " bonkers"

Hi GiftsinMen:-
Firstly I also think there is nothing wrong with the " f" word. I do think however it can be over used like the word " love" and i think If we use over use these words they loose the impact.
Now to your question " What does my baptism mean to me" I am tempted to say it once meant " love" but it now means " f...k" but I don't want to over use those words on something that now means "nought" "zero" and " nothing" to me.
All I would add is sometimes, somethings takes time but you will heal....and it will get better.

So do I LoveUnHateExams.
But I think violent death creates a Legend.
" America has known many rebellions,
but never one like this:
millions of teenage rebels heading for nowhere,
some in' hot-rod" cars, the others on the
blare of rock 'n roll music, some with guns in their hands.
And at their head- a DEAD leader"
Picture Post October 8th 1956.
That was written on the death of James Dean . His VIOLENT death made him " immortal" to his generation, and only time has diminished that stature. But the Jesus death ( JESUS DEATH even spells like JAMES DEAN) has survived over 2000 years.
Why?
i think Jesus was untouchable until the Internet. Now it's harder to believe that the grave was empty and that he rose ....
