    Hahaha, oh man. :D

    That's just too damn good. I've known plenty of people who have had a similar experience.

    I wonder how many good Christian girls were raped because of something like this...

    Yeah... it's just damn hard for me to be mean to damn nice people.

    She has good intentions, but ehh... oh man. She said that "ANYONE can be SAVED!" (I quote).

    "I believe in you, I believe".
    "Christianity is a way of life, not a religion"
    "Hell is not fun. You burn"

    Silly silly people.

    Various cults use a similar ploy to lure in men & women with the promise, the hope of sex :eek:

    Well, sex is just damn easy.

    Can't lure everyone with Jesus. It takes a pro.

    I try to have as many theists praying for me as possible for the simple fact that I might be wrong.

    i like to pray for people, just in case. i've never managed the hard core belief. but i do believe. i gotta be me. AND, since i'm a secretly very loving and generous person (don't tell, or i'll slash your tires and kill your cat) i'll do whatever i can, however useless it may or may not be. at least someone knows you're thinking of them and care, right?

    I do believe in god, I call it the universe, and I am a spiritual person. But I keep it to myself. Not really anyone knows.

    personally, i've been handed plenty of miniature bibles, but i've only had one strange chinese kid come up and try desperately to convert me...

    i am kind of curious how it was determined that the two well-dressed bicyclists could only be christian missionaries...

    assuming they are, i think in at least some cases you decide to work for a mission, and then the mission dispatches you to wherever they decide to, so that could be how they ended up in thailand

    The key word is "mormon"

    are mormons known for that? i don't think i've ever seen a mormon, so i really don't know anything about picking them out of a crowd...

    Yeah, they are. I think it is their "coporate identity".

    No, but when I was living in Massachusetts, former presidential candidate (and noted Mormon) Mitt Romney was governor, but the only guy I ever saw him kiss was the state senate president, and that was mostly on the ass :p

    *chuckle* Personally -
    I did not mean the kissing. Just the clothes.
    The kissing was for a little bit of a laugh.

    Yeah, that looks just like them, odon. People so far(Zoomie and odon) have made a distinction between mormons and christians. Why? Aren't mormons some kind of branch of christianity?

    Why have I made the distinction? because (Like you say) they (a.k.a. The Church of Jesus Christ) are another branch/denomination of Christianity (I think) - with their own schisms branching off from them.

    depends who you ask. A mormon will say no with an asterisk. A christian will flat out deny it.

    I live in the south. Of course people have tried to convert me. I used to go to church. I even enjoyed it. haha My pastor still calls me sometimes to check up on me. (I haven't been to church in a few years) Do I believe everything word for word in the Bible......no not really. I love the stories. I mean come on - a man who was the strongest in the world because of his hair? Metrosexuals should love that.

    I never tried to convert anyone. I, however, have been screamed at by a "Christian". He was at my school yelling to everyone that we are all going to Hell. He pointed me out and called me a satanist. I just laughed at him and kept walking to class. I've had a few others try to convert me by telling me that Jesus loves me, or asking me if I know God. *Shrugs* I don't usually like to talk about religion because I'm not quite sure where I stand. I love the Bible as a book of literature. I also think there are good moral teachings to be found....sure not everything in that book is good. The story about Job just irritates me.

    I do pray....sometimes. :p I pray for people who need it. I call it sending good vibes so I don't offend anyone. I've gotten so sick of people jumping my shit because I've said I would pray for them.



    So Pavel, which level of Hell do you want to hang out in this weekend?

    I'd like to hang out at the inner ring of the seventh circle, please.
