oh shut IT

how did you get in here?




you do have some good basically sound ideas tho

You left off perfumes and all body products with fragrances. Many people are severely allergic!

they might be a follower but hopefully not religious

religiosity is not pleasing
not effective
and not suggested

the good samaritan was the only 'non religious person' that came by

dont stand around with a prayer box on your head

religion never did a good thing for anybody

He said so Himself

however a relationship can change everything

and besides bein smarmy to a stranger is hardly a nice example





welcome to CS tho

thats why i dont wear any
<<<considerate nerd

i have some of my fave perfume my son got me
he is old now he can afford it
its what he remembers me smelling like when he was little
i only wear it when i go to his house




we are just becoming more intolerant of each other
how will this progress things constructively? it wont.

on a world scale i mean
CS is just- a microcosm

True, about many things... but religion did do good things for people. (Hospitals are actually an invention of religion, for example). However, I will agree that most religion as it is followed is far from beneficial. I'm personally a much greater believer in simple kindness and caring than any organized following. However, I also do know of several religious groups that are not evil, mean, threatening, or dangerous to others around them. So yes, religion is not a good thing in and of itself (but neither is it a bad thing in and of itself)... that aspect of something in our world tends to come from the people involved. Guess that leaves it as a sad reflection on us all.

Oh, and thanks for the welcome!!

Actually you are wrong. I am religious, but by religious I am not a fanatic. I admit that I do possess my own ideals. However by religious, do you mean believe in God? Of course I do. In fact I am a born again Christian. Do I agree with other Christians? No. Although whatever other people do is of no concern of mine, unless it is my own children (that I will own day have... hopefully) and I am trying to protect them. Because as a man, I would be responsible for my own household.

Try to take a joke and laugh at things, you will live longer, I promise you.

Hmm... sorry. Just that I see that idea a lot around, and I really don't find it funny. However, I do enjoy a lot of humor... just certain things don't strike me as funny.

That I can understand (I shall make note that some things can be offending to others). Although on the other hand, nobody will agree upon and or feel exactly the same about the same things. I bet even God himself treats others differently, as they are individuals and have their own purposes in life that are given differently. Not that He loves anyone more than the other, but He most certainly favors, as some are blessed more than others.

With this in mind, I believe it is okay to joke around with things. As in my opinion (which no one can change) no religion is greater than another, no sin for that matter, and no good deed. You can understand what I see. Religious is okay, fanaticism causes problems. I see people target homosexuals, but this is the influence and doing of man. I think sometimes people hear God, but they put themselves behind it and sometimes misconstrue the purpose.

For instance, it is good to love all, but God hates sin. If (let's just say) homosexuality is truly a sin, then people go and hate on the homosexuals because it is easier to see the sinner, then the actual sin. A man murders someone. They do not see "his name" the man who committed a murder. They see "The Murderer".

So that is why I disagree with some hardcore Christians (Or should I say "The Church-goers"), as they cannot define what is human. Targeting specifics such as homosexuality is just plain retarded. Why not target fast food for the gluttons? Shops that sell posters for Idolatry? Because they put man's own influence behind it, meaning their "Hate".


I just had to get that out there, and I apologize to the others for the thread jacking.

Jeez, some religious people give God a bad name!

Lighten up, laugh, enjoy life. That's what God gave it to you for. We were created to be happy.

In the us they did study (3 million was the cost) to find out if second hand smoke was bad. They could have just asked me (duh ,if smoke is bad for the smoker ,,,wtf)

Richmond spent 5 million on a study on improving the city and the resulting data was a suggestion to raise the price on parking meters.

Our Mayor went to Africa to 'encourage buisness in richmond' ........? wtf did i just pay for? .......

The quotes came out wrong. His quote screw up screwed up mine.

The hottest woman in the world would look like a $2 whore (IMO) with a cig in her hand/mouth.
Its a repulsive, nasty habit that smokers should keep to themselves, in there own cancer filled places.
NOT in public !!!

I dont want to smell your ashtray breath, or sit near you as you reek of smoke and ashes.

GROSS ,,,, just GROSS !!!!

Smokers are ignorant, self centered people that need to realize the rest of us do not share their desire to stink, and be offensive to others.

May all you smokers die of cancer, oh wait, hehe, you all will !!!! LMAO
