There's a sticky for trivial Youtube links.

Half the people posting seem to be under the impression that this question was directed at your preference for a partner :? . I'm pretty sure it was meant to be a choice for yourself, not others.

That made me explode into uncontrollable chuckles :D .

Nope. I think that most of the people who haven't posted did the same. Including me, until I saw your post and felt compelled to write this post to agree with it, which isn't giving a crap about the Jesus painting but rather about not giving a crap.

Mockery: Round 2 HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I get mine buzzed down to 1/2 inch. Longer hair requires more time to take care of. Real men don't want to worry about hygiene. I thought about shaving it off completely so I could just use soap, that would cut out the shampoo part completely. SOAP? THIS IS SPARTA. I don't even wash my hair, or any part of me. Which means, that your manhood has been eradicated by me! Dirty monkeys.

I love you. Ooooh, and I'm a Catholic. Surely the mutual hatred between me and atheists should forbid this love? This is so stupid and pointless. Neither side seems to want to give an inch, they're both convinced that the other side is the lesser one way or another. I am totally behind Goddess. Drop it, for God's sake. (Pun intended.)

Hmm? Care to elaborate? That was a famous cult, started by some guy who claimed you could hear preachings of the devil if you played the song Helter Skelter by the Beatles backwards. He called it Helter Skelter. How original.

You must have heard of Helter Skelter.

Oh please. . .

^ More Wii ownage right there.

Are you kidding me? There is no way I would sacrifice my intelligence for anything. I mean, if I was some awesomely attractive stud, think about it, I could very well have AIDS by now (assuming that by choosing one you pretty much forfeit the other).

I prefer palindromes TBH. plus my name came out as a bunch of gibberish :XD: Go hang a salami! I'm a lasagna hog! <--- Good palindrome there.

Well, your assumptions were wrong. I did. I will repeat: Live and let live. I'm done. This is a lost cause, for both sides.

Me too. And I will never understand the obsession with FPS's. Call of Duty 3 is a FPS, but it's not that great. In pretty much every genre there are more bad apples than good -- why limit yourself?

WOW, just wow... this is exactly what he is arguing against, pushing his beliefs on someone else. You really are a christian. For the love of. . . Stop stereotyping Christians. Please. Those who argue from your point of view are latching on to few and far between examples of some extreme Christians. The same is true of any religion -- Muslim radicals can be terrorists for crying out loud! And if you were actually considerate enough to look past these sensational issues to the core and majority of those in the faith, you would realize that there is nothing objectionable about them as people, just as the vast majority of them find nothing objectionable about you. Their faith gives them a moral code -- what's so wrong with that? Live and let live.

Why not put this in one of the plentiful existing topics. . . ?

But that contradicts free will. And about your question, I stated it in the post. Chastity. Catholicism and most other Christian religions encourage chastity until marraige, as I'm sure you know. And were everyone to adhere to chastity, and to not commit adultery, it would be a competently effective way of combating AIDS, indeed most likely a more effective one than contraception due to the fallibility of artificial birth control. And I'm not saying that everyone has to do it, but that's what's expected of a Christian. As I said before, other beliefs are not persecuted by the vast majority of Christians anyway.

I was in no way referring to the beliefs of each sect, merely pointing out that not all of them are intolerant of other beliefs (or lack thereof). No, it is not hypocritical at all for him to say that, because according to Catholic beliefs contraceptives are interfering with the natural gift of sex (a couple who are going to have sex must be open to life) and are sinful, instead we encourage chastity. He's not being hypocritical, because Catholics have their own way of preventing AIDS.

Really. What's the point of making this? You say that you take issue with Christians pressing their beliefs on you -- isn't that a rather hypocritical statement if you turn around and make a thread bashing Christianity? And you do realize that Christianity encompasses a wide range of religions? It's including all protestant religions as well. So you're stereotyping a lot of people when you accuse Christians of forcing beliefs upon others. When as a matter of fact most don't. Catholics are mostly tolerant if not entirely indifferent to others' beliefs. I should know, I am one. It's those Baptists you have to watch out for. (Kidding, kidding. . . Or am I :shock: )

My reaction is split: One part of me wants to destroy the freaks who did that to the elephant, and the other part of me wants to laugh uncontrollably. The laughing uncontrollably part is winning right now :XD:

Some of my best friends are needles. To be serious, just don't think about it. It's psycological, the best you can do is come to terms with it and realize that it's not a big deal. I was afraid of like, my first ever shot, but then I'm like, hey, that was easy. And I've never had a problem with needles ever again.

I must sympathize with Reb here: :wall: (a-B)(a+B)=b(a-B) Okay. I got rid of the (a-B) by DIVIDING both sides by the common factor. Which is division by 0.

b(a-B) == b*a-b No, b(a-B) = b*a-b*b :-s . Yes :-s (rendering the product 0), but you can't divide by 0. You can't do 1/0, 20/0, 0/0, infinity/0, x/0, a/0, anything. Mathematical laws require that you not divide by 0. Thus, this is the illegal step: when did he divide? it's all multiplication. you could say that if x is any number, the above means that x*0 = 0*x. No, a and b are equal and not 0. Sorry if that was confusing, I should have stated that. I divided here, as Reb said: (a-B)(a+B)=b(a-B) V a+b=b I factored out the (a-B), and since a=b, a-b=0, therefore by factoring I am dividing by 0. Which can't be done.

Reb got it right. Tricky little equation it is. And no, sorry, I don't have time to do other people's homework on top of my own
