I used to be the same way but my mind's changed a lot over the years. The way I see it is this: I tolerate people. I don't necessarily tolerate belief systems. The majority of believers are fine, decent people. That doesn't mean I attribute those characteristics to the religion they are a part of. I don't think your beliefs - especially the superstitious, supernatural elements of them which goes for all of them, even Buddhism - makes you a "better person". I'm not disagreeing with you there. My point, which I admittedly didn't make very clearly, was that I don't really like the whole "What would (insert religious figurehead here) do" quote to begin with. I don't think these people, in most cases, are ones that the average person can relate to because they're direct prophets from God or have some crazy super powers and the common person isn't/doesn't. It blows my mind, for instance, that people support religions on the idea that "we should have faith even though we can't see God" when the very people they look to in their holy texts as examples have God popping into their lives every five minutes just to keep them from fucking up. Moses didn't have faith. He had plagues and direct holy intervention that gave him evidence that there was a God (in the context of his story). How does that relate to modern day people who don't witness the same day to day miraculous occurrences.

Is there really that much of a difference?

Agreed. For instance, when confronted with homosexuals living a sinful lifestyle I often ask myself how Jesus would treat them in that situation.Then I realize I can't cure their gayness by touching them or turn blood into wine or some shit like that so I just call them faggots and tell them they can't get married or sometimes I kill them. Next best thing really.Yay Jesus!

Fair enough. I just don't like the attitude lots of people have that all spiders are harmful and need to be squashed on sight. You're one of the exceptions to the rule, but lots of people pull the "Black widows omg" card and in most cases they don't have a legitimate reason to be that paranoid about it.

Well, you do live in California. I hear they prefer warm climates so in your case I'll retract that argument. Still, that doesn't mean you have to kill every other kind of spider in your house.

Naming one of the more venomous species as the norm is like saying "I don't go outside because the streets are full of serial killer rapists". Maybe you'll bump into one serial killer rapist in your lifetime but by and large most people are harmless aren't going to bother you if you don't bother them. Like spiders.

Because every spider is a black widow.

I was going to recommend these as well. Fantastic headphones even if their design in a bit odd.Mine broke a little while ago. I really need to get around to sending them in for repair. Lifetime warranty ftw (which comes with every pair).

Question: are people who are currently headless eligible to be figureheads?Because I would like to throw my as of now unoccupied hat in the ring for First Minister of Wild Accusations and Slander.

It's a catchy fucking song.There's a ten hour version of it and I've listened to a good fifteen minutes of it on more than one occasion.

That's not a sentence, that's a sentence and a half!

Can I be introduced and then die horribly within the same sentence?

I'm still confused with what this has to do with anything ever.

Dis go here.

I think you might be right, sir.... but while I'm here, can I have a few minutes of your time to talk to you about Gordon Freeman?
