I hope there's an afterlife, and I hope that it will be good to me too. I also hope it's not that hard to get in... because I dont really have much faith... just hope.

You should read up on Buddhism. I'm not saying to become a Buddhist, but read up on it. There's a lot of stuff that relates to what you're struggling with here. This book blew my mind:

Then you have never been to my church . But remember there was only one perfect person and that was the Lord Jesus Christ

Abba-Dabba 12-13-2006 12:35 AM

*rambling of thoughts*

I personally do not believe in god, the afterlife or anything that comes with it. I do not believe there has been one perfect person on this earth, that includes Jesus. My wife, who is very active in her church, believes the opposite.

Some people will say that man is God's greatest creation, I say that man is god's worst failure. Name me one species that has caused this world more destruction than man? You can't.

Christmas? What happened to Giftmas?

I also hope I haven't come accross to you in any negative way as you indicated some have.

Definitely not, I think I could attend a Church you pastor and discuss the things I find interesting with no worry of pressure or condemnation. I am pretty confident you are a good egg, though you might feel yourself that I am mistaken in some of my beliefs.

Far from being offended, my church is geared towards people just like you. We welcome those who don't know what to believe, if anything. True Christians are not judgmental- in fact we're loaded with the same problems and hangups as anyone, with no room or right to judge anyone. Those who do can count hypocrisy amongst their own faults.

Thanks Z,

I would love to meet you and share stories some day, you have led from what I can tell a very interesting life.

Hopefully you are not offended when people are rude to you. Because frankly in my view you are no better when you do that than the telemarketer calling my home and you will receive the same verbal abuse that I give them. If you intrude on my life unwelcome I have lost patience with that sort of behavior and act accordingly. I will give you an abrupt not interested and if you don't get the hint be ready for the irate blast same as a telemarketer.

I always try to ignore people who call at the door not in FedEx or UPS/Post office uniforms (well except officials fire police etc) and just don't even open the door. If you persist you better be willing to pay the price because I tried to ignore you.

haha went to church one time. Long story short. The pastor would sing. Crazy funny!! He would hold his hands up and sing ahmen. His voice was all crackly. Pretty funny.

I like to challenge them, to challenge the way they think. I know I come off as an arrogant asshole a lot of the time which is the reason for this thread to try to disuade people of the notion you have that I desire to ridicule. Russ and I are different we have had unfortunate run ins in the past and we have both become hurtful towards each other. This is unfortunate.

It doesn't but I would love to hear a description of it sometime. I like to see the relative values of homes based on areas people live. Start a thread on it sometime.

I'd be happy to share via PM's but you can find some pics under the "John Goodman is dead" thread. As you're well aware, I've drawn the ire of several CP members for descriptions of my neighborhood as well as the mere mention of a few of my neighbors.

It seems that it's accepted to start a thread about meeting the 4th string CB from the Chiefs from 1982, but if I mention that Eva Longoria had had a party the other night and I couldn't get my car up the street for 10 minutes while waiting on her valet service, I'm a pariah.

Such is Chiefsplanet.

So being as we are approaching a religious season for most religions I select this time to apologize for any hurt I may have caused any of the posters on this BB who mean well.

This is a thread not intended to stir the shit so hopefully it can stay in the Lounge.

LMAO Dude's ****ing hardcore, what can you say? I heard when he was born he came arm first giving the world the finger. He then proceeded to circumcise himself before bending the doctor over and ****ing her in the ass until she called him daddy. You just don't mess with somebody like that.

I actually set the limit at 17 for just such an example. I am not so fantastic at judging age as to be able to tell in all likelihood.
