what the hell. "if you don't believe in god you have to go to church every sunday?"

That's what I'm thinking! She thinks me not believing in God is causing some kind of psychological problems or depression or something...

Even went as far as to assert that all atheists are depressed and screwed in the head.
 
Wow... I'm so glad my parents aren't nutty like that:)

Anyway I'm sore as hell:sad: Yesterday doing Aikido I just took falls while my Dad did Koshinage on me, because he's taking his Shodon test in a month and needs to practice... Well, first I don't think there's a feeling in the world as good as the feeling of having your ass totally trashed as you get thrown into the mat over and over. Sadly this awesome feeling comes at the price of massive soreness:sad:

My mom never talks about religion, never has taken me or my sister to church EVER, and decided one day when I was in high school that I wasn't allowed to purchase a book entitled "Why I am Atheist". WTH. She rhetorically stated that I should reconsider attending a private college that is "Christian" (as if there aren't atheists/non-Christians on campus).
 
People who have large umbrellas yet take up space under awnings and other covered spaces should be kicked. Had to fight them for space (and also to get out of the bank as they decided standing right in front of the doors was a good thing) during this afternoon's downpour while waiting for the express bus back to Brooklyn.

And people complaining about how horrible the driver is because the trip took two hours. That was due to the increase in traffic. The driver might have been vacant in the head for other things, but there isn't much you can do when traffic is going at 5 miles per hour.
 
What the hell is it with people droppnig doors? I am not even asking them to hold it open for everyone and let them walk by, just hold it as you walk past, or a few seconds or so, so that it doesn't fall right into the person behind you.

And it's funny, 'cause nobody holds real doors but they always hold the elevator open. I guess it's easier to hold a button down than an entire door.
 
GAH! my zed key just came out of my keyboard. If it was the a, e, or s keys I would have died. Every time I type a zed I have to copy and paste from a random z on the internet. I wish I still had the default apple keyboard, if SOMEONE (cough :mad: cough) hadn't spilled her drink ALL OVER IT, and then decided to hide doing it instead of cleaning it up. (Drink was a bottle of water too, not even anything judgement impairing.)

I actually go to a Christian high school. And it ain't all bibles and daisies. It's about as bad here as it is in other schools, only there's not much fighting but boy do they make up for it...

Anyway I'm going to dad to help me find work, I'll also go hang at dad's place every Sunday. :mischief: It'll all work out.

Btw she's making me even read books on religion! ROFL to the max...
 
How much control do you have over which books you are reading? Pick up some n your own, just because they are about religion . . .

Well, what she's trying to do here is basically wear me down with theological studies and debate and all that good stuff, until either I accept what she's saying or hit 18 and ride the Lodge out of this state. So she is going to make me read books(that she chooses mind you, just to make it as one sided as possible...) that support her view.

I could go out and get other books myself. However that would only pull me further into this. Theology doesn't interest me very much..

personally i think you should have an interest in religions.
mind you, i am an atheist, but i also love studying religions.
faith is the one big force that has influenced history.
dont you want to know what makes people tick?

why not, for every book she forces you to read about chritianity, grab another about Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, Zen, Hindu, the goes on and on....

i can tell you that once i too refused to read anything about faith...
then when i was drawn into history studies, i soon found myself studying religion.
now im still an atheist, but i have an understanding of the faiths.

all knowledge is good.
especially if you disagree with it :D
 
There is a WW1 board game that is played...at COMPANY LEVEL.

On the Axis&Allies box, it says to have 4-6 hours. On this box, it says to have 4-6 days.

I really want to play it, but never have anywhere close to that much time.
 
I woke up about 90 minutes ago. The time now is 1:30am...

No wonder I can't get into a routine....

When I'm at home, I often wake up in the weekends after 1, sometimes even after 2 PM. :)

Of course, the last few days I woke up very early because I'm in America and the time zone difference screwed up my biological clock.

I went to sleep at about 10pm, woke up 2 hours later completely awake not at all tired.
 
People who think I'm evil or "a poser" for practicing interpersonal self-devolpment bug the hell out of me, or at least they would if they knew I did it.
 
I can't believe I forgot that 149 - 70 = 79, where did I get 70 from? I missed the stupid semi-rare . . .

Also, I can't believe I forgot to take my cell phone out of my pants before running it through the wash . . .
 
Why do they charge me for getting off the tollway!!!

I went to Chicago today and after driving several miles hoping for a gas station so I can use the restroom, I couldn't take it anymore and took the first exit I could find and then hope I find some sort of business that will let me use their restroom. I had to pay in order to get off the tollway!

Ended up stopping at a sporting goods store (nice restrooms, though!). Of course when I get back on the tollway there was a gas station 2 miles down the road (and I wouldn't have had to pay). :mad:

Thankfully avoided rush-hour traffic, and the people (walking) in downtown Chicago were more friendly than I expected, but just like Minneapolis they have the jerk drivers who speed up instead of backing off when they see you trying to merge into their lane. My '97 pickup already has some dings in it, so I certainly wouldn't mind putting a big ding into your '07 SUV! :trouble:
