1. The Hipforums announces it first ever fundraiser. After nearly 30 years online, we must ask our members and guests to help support the website. Thanks to years of ongoing financial support of our members, advertisers and volunteer admin staff, we have been able to keep the forums alive.

    Now we must ask for help as available funds have all been used for our Internet server and other fees.

    So please donate any amount to our PayPal account donate@Hipforum.com to keep the site going. If we can get enough for a few months fees, we won't need to nag you again!

    You could also subscribe to the forums and get an upgrade to Supporter or Lifetime Supporter here

    You can dismiss this message by clicking on the X in the upper right corner.

    Thanks! The Hipforums Staff

    1. Listen to some good music. Bands I recommend are: Blind Melon, Aquabats, Beck, Association, Beatles, Tom Lehrer, Velvet Underground, etc...If you want more, send me a message, I'll blow your mind away.

    2. Become a chocaholic. It works, and it's oh so good.

    3. DO NOT run to a religion. They will suck you right up, and make everything you love a sin.

    4. Have deep thoughts. Lie on the ground and stare at the clouds. Or the grass, it's pretty cool, close up. Find the beauty in the trees, the animals, and basically the world you live in. It's everywhere.

    5. Eat right and exercise. Last year I was on dorm food and active for about 2 hours a week, and I was really depressed. Now I ride my bike to school and eat better (a little) and it's all good. Ultimate frisbee is good too, 'cause it's all about sportsmanship.

    6. This one's a detail, but be honest. It's very cathartic, and good for your soul.

    Peace.

    Actually, folks. There is no proof of any "True" religion. There are thousands of faith systems around, so that should show that a persons belief system is purely personal.
    Whatever "Higher Power" there is, They are obviously known by thousands of names. The original bible was written in 'old hebrew' and translated by scholars who knew Latin. Then it was translated from Latin to Englishby scholars who spoke Italian. As we all know, meanings get lost in translation...even from English to English. Why can't everyone just use common sense and be nice? Basics in all religions!
