SadSue 0 #203 June 12, 2003 QuoteJudging from your remark, you certainly are a SAD CASE SUE. __________________________________________________ EH HEM!!!! I do answer back so choose your words carefully before you show yourself up as an uneducated idiot who has learned nothing in life besides the way some one else has taught you. You are a FOLLOWER. __________________________________________________ You will in time, find out He does exist, and you will stand befoere Him and be unable to give an account for ALL you've ever done. What a SAD case. __________________________________________________ Oh Dear!!!! Who the Fuck are you, GOD's right hand MAN? I doubt that very HIGHLY!!! Why don't you believe whatever you believe quietly and ask yerself some simple questions! What gives YOU the right to Talk down to ANYONE? Is That what you have learned from being a Religious? If IT IS, you are the SAD one, you have totally missed the boat and I hate to say it, but your sinking in Quick sand. __________________________________________________ May God open your eyes before its too late to correct you. There are none so blind as those who will not see....SAD, it sure is. As for this remark, you are a very shallow person in saying that to anyone. What makes you think you are so RIGHT. Did your GOD not tell you to treat others as you wish to be treated? Well Chuteless, the BOOTs on the other foot now, Isn't IT. Ever heard "let the man who is FREE FROM SIN cast the first stone, or where you asleep in your Cathocism Class for that one too. Be Much more INFORMED before you DARE attack other people because the do not agree with your beliefs. Thank you!!!!!! Hope you don't get Banned!

jumper596 0 #207 June 12, 2003 Good Post... I'd like to thank All That Is Good, for the ability to skydive! And to be the best damm Drum Teacher in Arizona! Also, for those 2 blondes that night in Yuma, back in '93, THAT was ROCKIN'!!! AMEN Total Atheist Nice to meet others! If anyone yells at me for not believing in their god, here this, I'l never jump with you!!! Not that you'd want to jump with me anyway, I suck. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lurch 0 #208 June 12, 2003 For Sue: -laughter and applause- well spoken! I'll save you a spot by the fire in hell with all the other good people. For Rhino: Again, I DO hope you outgrow that someday. To put it in polite language, your mental hygiene leaves much to be desired. Having this imperative telling people they must be "saved" or face eternal torture irrespective of life love and quality...to carry such a disconnected-from-reality program in your mind must itch like a sonofabitch. Reading Stephen Hawking may offer some relief from the discomfort and some perspective on how little what you think has to do with what IS. Hell is bitterness rage and regret. Heaven is growth learning respect life light and friends. I have discarded the former and embraced the latter. What do I need to be saved for?Live and learn... or die, and teach by example.

SadSue 0 #209 June 12, 2003 Lurch, ye know what? I don't give a toss what people think of me on here, the point of being here is to be myself and I think that some people require a large crowd behind them to make em feel secure. If I'm wrong then I'll deal with it ffs... I'm not scared, or if I am I love it. Thats why I skydive!!! Hope you don't get Banned! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lurch 0 #210 June 12, 2003 Well, reading that post of yours I got the image of a schoolteacher scolding the hell out of some punk...that was a beautiful beating you just delivered, richly deserved and long overdue. Ignorance is one thing, sheer bad manners is another. One is excusable, the other, he should have known better. If you come off like a 10 year old fundamentalist preacher to a bunch of skydivers you should expect to get smacked for it.Live and learn... or die, and teach by example.

There is no way anyone is going to show someone else the way to their "thruth" by going on some long demanding diatriable on how incorrect they are.
