Jesus Died for YOU

[Lord_Caramac]

Then it's agreed....we keep them.

Yay!
I don't care if King Kong and Jesus threw their lives away for our sins. If they are that valuable, then we are keeping them. If only King Kong and Jesus knew that they also had sins and therefore they didn't need to die to get anyone else's.

There's only one sin: Hurting people. Hurting yourself isn't sinful, just plain stupid.

Ringlets? You mean the Hasidicks. They make Catholics look like freespirted, LSD taking, Orgy participating, fun people(Discordians). No pork, No sex before marriage, no hugging people you're not married to(really), Get married in seperate rooms(also true), wear funny costumes, the list goes on.  Some of my relatives are like that. I feel very sorry for them.
Funny also how I'm one of the few pale people in my family. Guess that's my semi-Aryan side(I'm not really sure what my genes are really.) like I said. I usually stand out in a picnic. Or a synagougue. Y'know, I've never been to church, but temple is obscenely boring, especially because a good deal of it is in Hebrew, which I don't know. than the sermon usually brings up some arrogant crap about the treasures of our heritage, and how we're destined by God to return to the Holy Land. A bunch of bull, really, but I can't imagine church being a lot better what with the whole Jesus shtick(told you I was Jewish) being thrown in your face. It's so hard to vent when so many people take this religion crap so seriously.

There was a holocaust survivor quotes in thne NYTimes:

This is the promised Land. It is all around us, always.

[Cthulhu's Advocate]

SMFabal that's what I'm trying to get at when I say to people time to time "Israel isn't really holy." Why should some place be any holier than another. It's not holy, cuz it is holy, but so is everything else! If God made it all, God loves it all, and God is impartial what's the big deal with all this Holy land shit? You too Muslims.

I agree.....any space can be sacred space.

Na, Lass, all space is sacred, then, now, 'n' f'ever, aye. But 's nay sacred, too.[/old grizzled warrior voice]

I stand corrected.....or not

my throne room is a great temple...

[SMFabal]

Actually, I always use the phrase "There is no seperation between the sacred and the profane"

[Horab Fibslager]

i find profanity sacred myself.

It's all sacred and none of it is sacred, simultaneously. We are the ones who choose to give things meaning. Holylands are just excuses for the same old 'murder-someone-and-take-their-shit' behaviour.

"We create our own gods, our own fates, our own decisions.
And some of the ones we make we live within like a prison.
But if we have the strength to break through the cloudy vision,
We abandon the hate and maybe heaven awaits."

that being said, i wonder what the crime rate is like in the greater yorba linda area...

I just ordered a crucifix off the internet and I swear I'm going to make a sling shot out of it........the impulse is impossible to resist.

PS:Maybe I could use it to shoot mentos at people.
