  1. But I suppose it's humble of Christians to claim that the God that they believe in truly exists (with no proof) and in addition is the ONLY true god and those who don't believe in it are going to hell.
  2. Man...some good one liners from this one."It's been a weird day, I dressed in women's clothing""....and Bono"
  3. On a more personal note, I think I'm beginning to see why you think Prahlad Friedman is in some way humorous.
  4. turns out john heder is a bad actor after all.welcome to the pack.
  5. plus he drinks michelob ultra.stud.
  6. The stuff about people not 'being able' to read books really rubbed me the wrong way. I just think that's terrible and pathetic. Like people who always claim to have ADD and that's why....well their excuse for not being able to do anything for an extended amount of time or be dedicated to something. This is with regard not only to poker but everything in life.I dunno if those of you who 'can't stand reading' have or plan on going to college, but you might want to get some practice reading. I can understand when a 3rd grader complains about not wanted to read for their homework but young ad
  7. Don't need it, but could use it. If worse comes to worse i'll try to loan it back out at a better rate. my rating is an A so i'm getting at like 9.5% right now....2% 'bid' on..aka 50 bucks haha.
  8. Well I posted a 'borrow' request for $3000 to see what happens. Also joined a group from an area where I'm from. I think I'm treating this to much like a game instead of something real. I mean, there are a bunch of fees and stuff involved that go to the site.
  9. Has anyone tried this?Seems, logically that this wouldn't work. Couldn't you just get a loan from someone at 8% and then lend money at 12% and keep the 4%? seems like it's creating an even worse 'middle man' than a bank.Well, I'm signing up for fun regardless.

    So you're first thoughts upon reading this 'story' are that it must be false, and someone is either delusional or lying?That doesn't sound very open minded.
  11. I was best friends with two reformed jews in high-school, and part of college, I dunno if they count because they didn't really have any jewish culture about them aside from trying to get out of school for extra holidays. One of them didn't wear deodorant, but i'm guessing that was a hygiene thing and not a jewish thing. Regardless, it was smelly. I'm guessing you see more of a significance in difference of culture from an orthodox jew, but I'm pretty naive to it all.
  12. I hate it when people slap their leg when they laugh really hard. How are the two even related?

    Crow-But besides that stuff, what do you make of the story? Someone must be lying right? Who? and Why? Or what other explaination coudl you use (based in science) for this occurence?
  14. faith is believing without proof, of course it can't be done, the definition of faith implies believing without proof.The only sense at which I'm claiming to be more 'whole' than you is the fact that you can only see one side of any issue, the side you believe. You don't have the ablility to look at a situation from someone else's perspective and you certainly dont' have the ability to critique your OWN perspective on a subject.
  15. First of all,"Faith: belief that is not based on proof: He had faith that the hypothesis would be substantiated by fact."More importantly, I find it much more appealing to not accept any answer rather than accepting beyond a doubt one that MIGHT be wrong.I'm truly, really curious how you and Kwest can believe with out ANY doubt that god exists....I mean even a .0000000000000001% chance that he doesn't. What proof do you have Lois, besides you've 'been in the church for 25 years', or Kwest 'that your life was saved by god in a car crash'. Anything?As far as 'wholeness' I promise you I'm a mu
  16. I'll stop here.I think there is a possibility you are right, Although I won't concede that every facet of your believe system is possibly 100% right. I'm not an atheist, I'm not an anything. I'm just trying to find answers to questions, but at the same time if somone is completely ignorant and makes claims that are wrong, or is unable to conceptualize the idea that they may be wrong then I'm going to retort. I don't feel as though you, Kwest, come at these topics from the same perspective as Lois, while you're belief systems may be more similar to each other than mine and yours or mine and
  17. But Kiser was raised a Christian and grew up in the church, and went to a Christian College, then one day decided he didn't like being a part of that anymore. So he does have the ability to see things from both sides right?The 'blindness' I see in you Lois is in the fact that with no shred of your being will you ever accept the POSSIBILITY (no matter how small( that the religion you believe in is wrong or corrupt, or not based on anything truthful. Even if you would admit that there is a .000001% CHANCE that everything you say is completely wrong I think it would go a long way to seeing whe
  18. Premise 1: God doesn't listen to sinnersPremise 2: Everyone is a sinnerConclusion: God listens to no oneIs this what you're claiming the Bible says?
  19. Except you go on to say.... So by stating your belief and being 'done' you mean 'accusing someone of being a Nazi'?You don't like when Kiser "scream(s) and cr(ies) how religion is ruining the world and God is a hoax, and how religious people are just so full of **** and claim to know everything, and are largely made up of stupid people who don't know any better, and should be kept on an island... and so on and so on."Do you think he likes it when you call him a Hitler Youth?..... http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/hypocrite
