Leave the conversion for those who want to be converted and for those who are given that opportunity to choose for themselves thier own religious path..

Shit, not to ruin the thread, but I'm Christian and I fucking HATE when people come back with this bullshit. I don't shove scipture anywhere... not down anybody's throat, up anybody's ass, or in anybody's face. Don't generalize and say "Christians"... try using a specific offenders name if you don't mind.

(This isn't directed to Stubborn or anybody really unless they generalize and say they hate Christians. I get it all the time... friends saying Christians are always after them like they're frickin' frackin' Frankenstein or something.")



I feel...


Parents should indeed spend more time with their children, even if it means making a little less money.

Children today are overmedicated... maybe that's why stupidity seems so high.

I don't understand how people justify spending the amount of money that they do on things, if I had billions I still wouldn't buy a car that cost more than $50,000...

As for movies, I still subcribe to the theory that because more movies are getting released, more suck. It's almost too easy for them to make some sort of profit which increases the number of risk taking films we see but also paves the way for inane drivel that should have never got released.

'word'..over the religious thingy .. and your right..(soz about that)..
It reminded me of a certain .recent thread that got my knickers in a twist. 'lowers her eyes'
generalising should be banned..


As for a parent who works 2 jobs..ummm
i never had a mum..
well i did..but she worked 3 jobs so yeah..i never had my mum at all..
Why she did this is beyond me..we didnt need the money..we didnt need anything..we did need a mother.
My big brother raised me..my big brother was the one who told me.all about the personal embarrasing stuff a mother shouldve have there for.
Ha..on her days off ..she slept and we were made to play outside ..QUIETLY..or passed on to her big/fat/ugly/blackassed sister.

I'm afraid I don't have much of an answer like the rest of the thread.


Sadly, every Goddamn thing.

Yeah, there's plenty left to do. Hollywood just needs to stop thinking inside their "We know this will make us money" box and start hiring some writers that have some fuckin' imagination. (Roderick Usher is gonna shatter the mold though. I can feel it.)

Feast, Jeepers Creepers, The Skeleton Key, Cabin Fever, Shaun of the Dead... There's some fresh stuff that's come out in the last few years. Sure the ideas of monsters, voodoo, infection & zombies have all been done, but there's ways to make them fresh & unique and those films I noted above all did that in my opinion. At least they are original stories and I didn't feel like I was watching a film I had already seen a dozen different times with a dozen different titles.

So it's not right when people ''hate'' on your religion but it's ok when you say someone else's is wrong and annoying? My grandmother has been a Witness for about 35 years now, and she's also the most caring, selfless, perfectly sane person I know. Same goes for the rest of the religion with the exception of a few bad apples as every religion has. True, they can be a little annoying, some of them decide to go door to door a little earlier than others. There's someone else who used to go up to people and different situations out of the blue with no invite and start preaching, his name was Jesus, you ready to call him annoying and wrong too?

I don't remember saying that, but i'd bet you it was no less than 10 minutes after one came to our door and wouldn't leave for 20 minutes... (no kidding)

What I quoted obviously came directly from one of your post, so you obviously said it.


To use your defense, did the person that came to your door hurt you in any way? I heavily doubt it.

1st, I didn't deny it, just said I didn't remember it. 2nd, actually the person got rude with my mom before my dad stepped in,

3rd- I'm not perfect, everyone makes generalizations once in a while, slipped.

Fair enough.

Posher778 02-23-2007 08:28 PM

i don't mean to generalize, I really hate it when I (or anyone) does that. Its hard not to sometimes because naturally, if one person does something to you, you think of all of them like that. Like if one person gets a crazy baptist all over them with their religion, then they automatically get a "bloody baptists" attitude about everything.
