a couple days ago minimus asked the question (anyone notice he's always asking questions?

me: snobbery, ignorance, flourescent lighting and hands that are shedding innocent blood.

please list different ways the organization attempts to control their flock.

They pose questions, ask for opinions and then do everything in their power to mitigate, minimize and berate the responses. They verbaly abuse and mock the very ones they seek to impress. They dance around the issues taking the devils advocate position and stirring up contention. Keeping the masses feeling unsure as to their intentions and motivations. Hiding behind inuendo and superfluous statements.
Remind you of anyone?

Min,
One must also take into account the worth of the giver to set value on the gem. I would rather posess a chunk of coal given by a friend than a diamond from an enemy.
Of what value is a honking rock in an engagement ring possesed by a woman in a loveless marriage?
I don't know anyone of substance that would judge a piece of jewlery as their favorite based solely on the "cash value" of the item.

Did you like the Hulk?

i really liked it.

i loved spiderman and i thought the hulk was so much better.
Thunder Rider

I was really dissapointed. I had hoped that it would be as good as Spiderman and X-men.
The storyline deviated from the original comic and the deviation did not enrich the story at all. The CGI was incredible though. Unfortunately it was only a small part of the movie.A person could see the best of the movie just cruising the different internet preview sights and watching the TV commercials.

Has your life gotten better as an athiest/agnostic?

this quote got me thinking:if you pray sincerely and admit you are a sinner and accept christ as your savior you can have the holy spirit come into your life.. .

i used to do this everyday.

when i was being abused, i used to pray incessantly for god to help me.

Myself, I believe that God exists, but he has much more important things to do than bother with me. I have been much happier since I gave up "hope". I have taken responsibility for myself, my own actions, needs, and search for justice. Why wait on another when you can do it yourself? No expectations, no dissapointments. I am by no means pissing on the "ransom sacrifice" just allowing for the forgivness of my sins to be credited toward those that are a bit more needy. (wouldn't want those child abusers to come up short on divine forgiveness) That is tounge in cheek by the way.
My moral code is based on the "love thy god, love thy neighbor" thing, right is right. I don't make excuses for my actions good or bad and accept no excuses from others. I judge them personaly and if I find them to be less than savory of character I ignore them. My circle of influence and family is small. I keep it well gaurded, safe and as happy as possible. I choose not to rely on divine intervention to smooth my path. I got my own rake. Should god ever choose to exercise his influence on me and mine, I would request he clean his own house before he comments on mine.
