Why is Shale so fascinating?

To preach the True Gospel of the coming Kingdom of God (Mark 16:15) with emphasis on Watching & Warning (Matt.24:42-Ezek.33). Matthew 24:14, is NOT written as the commission to be carried out by all church eras. The prophecy was provided by Christ as a prophetic SIGN for God’s people indicating that His 2nd coming and the restoration of the Kingdom of God on earth would BE VERY NEAR when fulfilled.

"Ezekiel 25:17: The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the Valley of Darkness; for he is truly his brother's keeper, and the finder of lost children. And, I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers! And, you will know my name is The Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee!"

I also believe that this verse is quoted several times by Samuel L Jackson in "Pulp Fiction" just before he blew someone away!!

 

Yep. It's the link that I put at the end.
(It's not the real Ezek. 25:17, it's just some shit that Jules made up to scare people he was about to shoot.)

 

Hes a man of free love, and he follows the law.
Hes a hippie, and he likes to expand all his horizons to the fullest...just like one should do in life.

go Shale!

 

I'm in!

 

I love reading Shale's posts. What he does in his own time is his own business. I didn't read this entire thing, don't have the time right now.. but I saw someone called him sleeping with someone rape. I'd imagine Heff has slept with some bunnies that are 20! Y'all judge him the same because it's a man with a woman? It's the same thing in my eyes. I don't see anything wrong with either.. Like I said.. not my business.

 

I have done much thinking about this and I want to admit that I was wrong. I want to apologize for voicing my opinions like I did. It was very un-hippielike to force my morals on others and not fitting of my personality at all. In fact, if you knew me from the MySpace Group I used to run, I had friends who were young, old, gay and straight. I am sorry and I hope people will look past my remarks, move forward and not judge me too harshly on them.

 

There was a time, just months before I became a vegetarian that I couldn't understand why the vegetarians wouldn't let me put Keilbasa in the pot of beans that the commune was cooking. Why couldn't they just take it out and not eat it. I now understand.

There was a time I thought the Hare Krishnas were really wigged out fanatics. Well, maybe I still do, but I now understand immersion in spiritual devotion.

There was a time, long ago when I was a child in St. Louis that black ppl scared me because I was taught that they were scary. I now understand that we are all the same and there is a beauty in black ppl.

What I am trying to point out is that we all go thru changes as we travel our lives. Perhaps some don't change that much because they close themselves to the myriad differences in the human experience.

But if you leave yourself open to infinite possibilities of the infinite combinations that we are, then you may understand.

And understanding, even that which you don't embrace is change.

 

Don't flatter yourself! Shale's a cool dude, yeah.

 

Beautifully written-

See, it's posts like this that got you a fan club!

 

Its not about judgement or morality, its about denial and perspective.

I'm 38, at 20 I would have gone for a guy like Shale without hesitation, he has nice eyes (nothing beats a good set of eyes in a guy) and is in good shape. And I know as well as he does it would have been about me chasing him rather than the other way around ( a 20 yr old male is a lot hornier than a 65 yr old)

Just cos you never see much evidence of that type of thing doesnt mean it doesnt happen, a LOT of girls do secret stuff with guys far older than them, the main reasons are cos they will last a lot longer and be better at the stuff, but have to keep it secret cos everyone else gets narky, same applies for gay guys and also "straight" guys that arent as straight as they make out.

So from our perspective, you reaction just seems like denial. Your judgements arent going to change anything, they are just going to teach those around you to keep the secret stuff secret.

We get duped too, at 38, the amount of girls half my age coming at me when no one else is looking, the amount of gay guys half my age staring me down, and worse from your perspective - the amount of "straight" guys acting different when no one else is watching , is quite the head trip. Of course cant really talk about it in real life to anyone, just makes me sound like a complete egomaniac. Anyway, back when I was 20 its all something I soooo did not see coming

So if you think the concept of a 65 year old gay guy "preying" on a 20 year old gay guy is confronting, wait till you work out just how many "straight" guys want to get emasculated by a father figure, or teen girls that chase guys their grandads age - thats going to feel like someone reached up and king hit you in the face

 

That post is a good first step towards getting along with people here. No one expects you to agree with everyone all the time. We just need a little space to be ourselves.

 

We all have our hang ups hey! I was so shocked when a friend of mine (mother of 5 at 47) slept wiv a 17 year old.. i didnt judge but i knew i could never sleep wiv someone younger than my own kids!!! Her youngest son was 26
But it was her choice..
~You see u just never know! Love and connection is a funny thing..

When i turned 30 i slept wiv a 21 year old never thought id see the day but it happened..
its happened a couple of times now, even tho I certainly didnt go looking and they chased me!
Older men wer always my attraction i was 18 and my ex was 32..
Even tho i was young and looking back it wasnt a good mix, I stil am glad i dont see peoples ages i see them.

Total ramble!
:leaving:

 

Considering the things you said throughout the length of this thread, one post apologizing for voicing your opinion as you did isn't going to help much.

And the whole 'some of my bestest friends are (insert group you hate on)", has been the defensive cry of every hater going through history after they have been called out in public for it.

You want people to move forward and not judge you too harshly? Try apologizing for the things you actually said, rather then the way you expressed them.

As for your friends that you call hippies, I think you should reexamine what it is that makes you label them as such, because according to you, they all share the same idea that they have the right to make the same judgement you did...

Oh, and it wasn't young boys he was talking about, it was adults...

Of course, you weren't just objecting to him doing these things ... it was that he was honest and open about them that you apparently had the problem with....

 

I assume I was taking a step in the right direction and opening my mind a little, but it seems like you think we should carry on with hatred back and forth. I hope that I am doing the right thing by apologizing to Shale and all others how I came off and how I acted. All I can do is try to have a more open mind.

 

Then, as I said, try apologizing for the things that you said, as opposed to apologizing for the way that you said them.

 

give it a break
