    Once again, your argument assumes that being lonely and unloved goes inevitably with being rich. If that were the case, then one would be advised to avoid being rich. But it's not the case.

    Oh dear. Yes, yes, yes, yes, being rich doesn't guarantee happiness, or love. But nor does it prevent it.

    By the same token, being poor doesn't guarantee happiness, or love. And doesn't prevent it.

    But I certainly see no evidence that being poor increases one's chances of being happy and loved.

    There are a few homeless people in the city where I live and I see them going through rubbish bins and going off to where they sleep under a bridge in the park, none of them ever seem to look cheerful -- they usually look the picture of misery. Recently one of them was found dead: he had died of natural causes but they didn't find him for days -- until the smell of his decomposing body alerted passers by.

    He was well known round town by sight but he never looked happy to me -- he looked miserable to, and he was always alone; he had no friends at all, let alone anyone who loved him. Most of the homeless here seem like that -- friendless and miserable. No, poverty doesn't increase one's chances of happiness and love.
    I never said it did. I said I chose love over money, if that's what it came down to.

      "I'd rather be poor and have love than be rich and lonely." Blah, blah, blah, yap, yap, babble, babble...You wouldn't understand true love anyway. You're too uptight and full o' shit.

      But if you are talking about romantic love, there is no such thing -- at least not in the way you imagine it. Oh yeah there is. It's hard to see and somewhat rare. Especially among emotionless, bible hypnotized 'christians' like you.

      Of course, it may take you until you are about 30 to realise that what I'm saying is true. But true it is. Pull yourself together you little brat, and stop dreaming.
      Have you ever considered the fact that you might be wrong once in awhile? Or are you too wrapped up in your own lies to even see it.

        We cannot be wrong unless God is wrong, and we know that God is never wrong, therefore we are never wrong. It really is quite simple, even for a womanly person. Perhaps, just once, try to let the scales fall from your eyes and let the truth shine through.... We only want to help!

          O Lord our God, help us to tear their soldiers to bloody shreds with our shells; help us to cover their smiling fields with the pale forms of their patriot dead; help us to drown the thunder of the guns with the shrieks of their wounded, writhing in pain; help us to lay waste their humble homes with a hurricane of fire; help us to wring the hearts of their unoffending widows with unavailing grief; help us to turn them out roofless with little children to wander unfriended the wastes of their desolated land in rags and hunger and thirst, sports of the sun flames of summer and the icy winds of winter, broken in spirit, worn with travail, imploring Thee for the refuge of the grave and denied it--for our sakes who adore Thee, Lord, blast their hopes, blight their lives, protract their bitter pilgrimage, make heavy their steps, water their way with their tears, stain the white snow with the blood of their wounded feet! We ask it, in the spirit of love, of Him Who is the Source of Love, and Who is the ever-faithful refuge and friend of all that are sore beset and seek His aid with humble and contrite hearts. Amen.



          God being truth, justice, goodness, beauty, power, and life, man is falsehood, iniquity, evil, ugliness, impotence, and death. God being master, man is the slave. Incapable of finding justice, truth, and eternal life by his own effort, he can attain them only through a divine revelation... he who desires to worship God must harbor no childish illusions about the matter, but bravely renounce his liberty and humanity.

            There may be one or two cute and cool boys there who, being good Baptists, don't try to have their wicked way with you before you've finished saying, "Hi". You may meet the love of your life there, marry him, and live happily ever after. Of course you will spend your time at home and produce lots of little Ixi's and Avias and Kestrels. (Preferably no Adias), but think of the wonderful time you will have looking after, nurturing, and loving little kiddies of you own? What more could you want?
            Thats convincing enough, but I also like the life I'm living as well. Even if I'm not as rich as you I still like the life I live.

                  Not if the bible was mistranslated through the ages. Or even not written by god at all! The bible was written by man, and you are following man's rules, and at the same time, disobeying jesus's teachings because you blindely follow the bible without question.

                    Yes, everyone has to be right once in awhile. But no one is ever right ALL the time. Even elders are wrong, especially when it comes to change. They can't adapt to change, even for the better.

                        Exactly hellion! How are you so sure that the Bible was written by God just because it was written in the Bible by an unknown author?

                              You think that just because we're not like you, we're ignorate whores? That really says a lot about you. You can't tolerate difference, so you discriminate the Individualist. You're afraid that we are smarter than you in something, or better than you in something, so you constantly put us down.

                              Generally, elders are smarter, from experience. They've had more time to learn the things they know. But not all adults are as smart as you make them out to be. Maybe we do know more than you in certain things. For example, a teenage pre-med student would probably know a lot more about medicine and diagnosis than most adults would ever dream of knowing. And what about the 10 year old super-genious who went to highschool, taking senior classes? Or the 6 year piano prodigy?

                              Don't ever underestimate someone. You never know what they can accomplish.

                                No, we can put aside most differences, as long as the person we differ from is a True Christian.
