Religion is a farce.

"However, if you have a free mind, question and then proceed with building YOUR OWN ANSWER."

That's how I got to my faith. Of course, "free thinkers" will say I'm biased -somehow- but I don't know anyone who truly isn't. You have to believe in something at some point (that's the "proceeding" step you mention) and even the non-existence of God is a belief; otherwise you have no reference point, so no brain really... I love that saying that says "Don't be so open minded that your brain falls out". It's very true.

I was very impressed by many things who weighed heavily towards believing in the God of the Bible. But one that sticks out in the context of your entry is the Dead Sea scrolls...

There are LOT of things to be questioned for someone who does not believe in God too, have you ever thought about that?

Happy trails!

Running for President Before you be anything I think you should post a picture of yourself first buddy.[Sheainsu] 2007-03-20 11:18:48

Running for President I think that that is a great idea, everyone deserves a dream, and I know you will be better than bush

Lost lovers Hey long time so speak. I'm up tonight on this rainy Bay area evening, sippin' on a bottle of white zin and I just crazy, out of ther blue thought of you and I decided to... I don't know...I don't know what I'm trying to say, and I'm sorry if others see this, but I hope you can forgive me and my childish actions  dealing with whatever we had going on ( Is there really a word for it?) That guy ended up being a total loser. Go figure. these stand-offish games were played that I had to interpet as you making sure I keep my distance. I can't read minds yet but till then communication is the key. You are a wonderful man and I admit that I had a great time hanging out with you. Stay up. Peace*Cool  [HOney2sweet] 2006-01-15 02:48:16

figured out my insomnia Um, insomnia is the inability to sleep. Unless you were just being funny with your title, and I completely missed the point. Anyway, what does the vinegar actually do for your digestive system? Will it mess you up if you don't eat very much? I'm seriously interested.[LadyLydia] 2005-10-28 22:32:08

Worst Day Ever!

I laughed and laughed when I got to the part about the bad mango and the nutcase.  And also the cheese-free lifestyle.  Some people give up wacky tabaccy, some poeple give up the drink, but you?  You give up cheese.  *snicker*

I'm sitting here in front of the computer in my pajamas - inside out I might add - feeling like a loser.  I'm having one of those low-self-esteem weeks.  When someone's dared to pay me a compliment this week, I've actually just raised an eyebrow at them.  It's quite effective in warding off compliments, but it's also quite effective at warding off friends.  I guess I better catch my snap and get over myself.

So long, sucka.  ;)  Have a groovy week.

Worst Day Ever! you have a very interesting life indeed my friend, very intersting. i like it [freakychick90] 2005-08-30 02:25:57

Worst Day Ever! oh yeah, and swithching to mids helps the pockets![] 2005-08-30 02:20:41

Worst Day Ever! I accept your day, don't trip. Your not that misunderstood ; ) Love you, foolio[] 2005-08-30 02:19:11

What's been up lately. It's interesting how you view intelligence as a sign of self-worth.  I wonder if this is why you are not close with your family. Actually you told me.[] 2005-08-26 11:11:44

Minney Mouse #2 Wow that was such a girl-manuver! [] 2005-08-25 11:50:47

Baggage

LOL!!!!!! this is the greatest quote, "Counting, I've had quite a few girls in my life so far (I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing)."  Your so innocent I just want to pinch your cheeks!

They actually ( who they are, I'm not quite sure ) say that you attract the same person that has your same inner uh, how shall I say this? Ok, let's say your depressed all the time and doing E for 3 weeks straight (: P), you will attract a depressed person. But if your a bit more positive you will attract a person who is more positive. Of course there are always exceptions to the rule but you get my drift.

What a Wonderful Rave

Although I don't support our government I support our troops.  I also support the resourcefulness of seeing a way to be able to go to school and get a career by using " THE MAN" to pay for it. 

Not having a one-night stand to not be like the "average male"? How damn cute! How people change...( hehehe!)

Too late... I wrote this entry and I have to say today, the guilt will not hang above you, that's only Christian propaganda.  However, I do feel you should have it with the one you love otherwise your in for a dissapointment (unless the person is good in the sack and gets you into it).  I just lost my virginity to someone out of desperation.  We're all guilty of sleeping with someone out of desperation at some point (if your a whore like me that is ;)[Ope_2] 2005-08-24 02:48:05

Sex Life Nope, no problem in the imtimacy department. Like I would know right ; )[] 2005-08-23 16:46:24

Satan I just want to say that I was most pleased with your thoughts on your subject of Satan. I have been arguing the exact point that none of us know enough about him to judge him because the church just tells us that he's evil and that's all you need to know. Thank you, it's nice to know that their are other people out there that know how to use their mind and express their opinions and don't let the world tell them what's what!     [] 2005-07-28 02:07:55

Damn, lost my booty call

You busy boy, you.  It's much more fun to share yourself with someone you're compatible to.  Her loss!

I'm fighting the urge not to leave a horribly trashy, nasty-girl comment. 

Being ladylike isn't always all it's chalked up to be.  Dammit. 

But - my sense of propriety wins.  For now. 

Anyway, was glad to see you update. 

Bye, Sexy Josh...

Farewell to lost loves, hello to new ones I am still reading your diary, but I think that you are absolutly fasinating!
Write me some time... *Me*[sexy31]
2005-06-13 13:55:03

2dae wuz a maze zing! Lez's, Strapons & acidreamz

Damn.  I don't fit your stereotype.  You'll never be infatuated with me.  But, I do have my tongue pierced.  That's something, isn't it?  :P

No, really, listen.  I need your technical expertise and I couldn't decide what the best way to get ahold of you would be.  (IM - do you ever log on?  Email - do you ever check it?  Here - do you check back regularly?  Anyway, I'm going to try here first, and if that doesn't work, I'm going to send you an email, and if that doesn't work, I'm going to look you up in the yellow pages and just call your ass.  I'm a determined kind of girl.)

So what I need to know is, what's a "p log"?  And, how do you know if one has been installed (as in, if someone were spying on you?)  And... what exactly does it log?  Every single thing you type? 

I feel like Ricky Ricardo - "Lu-cy!  You got some 'splaining to do!"

Hurry, hurry, Josh!  Hurry up!  Read this, and let me know!  I've got an inquiring mind, you know!

Hugs 'n beer-

Heather

Lately

Is that you leaving anonymous comments in my diary?  Hum.  I hope so, because if it's not, then I'll have to write an entry about it. 

Me?  Eccentric?  Do you think so, really?  I've been called lots of things before (silly, dingy, goofy, wild, etc...) but that's a first.  Eccentric.

Wow.  I feel so sexy and grown-up now that I've been called eccentric.  Maybe that gives me a good excuse to let my hair get shaggy and forget things alot.  Maybe I'll start wearing long skirts and Jesus sandals and burn all my bras.

Nah, on second thought, I better not burn all my bras.  I really do rely on them to protect my girls, you know?

Anyway, but the long skirts and sandals thing... now that's an idea. 

You need to let me borrow that vaporizer.  It's the least you can do, since I've become such a fan of yours and all.

ha ha.

I guess that's all for now... but I might come back if I think of more things to say.  Never know.

I'm wearing a big smile for you.  See it?  It's cheesy and bright!

later, gator...

Life as it be

I love the way compliments feel as they wash over me.  That's one sure-fire way to keep yourself in my good graces, dahling. 

hahaha, in my best Cruella Deville.

So what's the story with the ex, anyway?  She must've pulled a number on you.  Damn, don't we all have one of those stingers that slammed us hard right in the ticker.  My ex was the love of my life and I couldn't live with him.  He broke my heart, the sorry ass-licking sack of snot.  Get angry.  If all else fails - it's therapeutic.  Or, better yet, do some retail therapy.  I know the perfect recipient.  She goes by the name Heather in real life, and her obsession is flip-flops.  I'd be more than happy to introduce you so that you can let her stand on the receiving end of some really intense feel-good shopping. 

Hey, what?  It always does the trick for me! 

No, but honestly - thank you muchly for the kind things you said about me in your entry.  Shucks.  I don't deserve any compliments like that, really - I mean, I am Not A Nice Person.  But thank you just the same.  I've enjoyed your diary as well.  Keep writing, and I'll keep reading!

Love, peace, and chickengrease -

Heather

Money grow$ on trees for m3

I've been meaning to stop by and comment, but I've been too wrapped up in my own crap to really pay attention to what's going on around me.  Wow, wasn't that a selfish-sounding and narcissistic thing to say?  At least I'm honest!  ;)

Ever heard the saying "pass the buck"?  Yeah, um, that most definitely applies here.  Feel free to pass the buck.

Money is a cure for insecurities?  Who the hell knew?  And all this time, I thought self-esteem had to come from within.  What a waste of analyzing and pumping up on my part.  What I really need, obviously, is a sugar daddy.  That would be a cure-all for so many things.

Thanks for your comments.  I don't honestly remember exactly what they said (you'll note that I wrote an entry about being tested for ADHD... one of the symptoms is frequent forgetfulness) but I do know they stick out in my mind, so you must have said something that had an impact on me.

Happy Hump Day - the week's almost over.  Yay! 

Don't be a stranger -

Heather

And how cold are you talking about? Here it's in the lower to upper 30's for a low, and I don't warm my car up. People here don't warm their cars up until it gets 20° and below.

New Thoughts thanks to Education turning the Cogs Classes are found in all cultures of the world. It's impossible to eascape. I think it's just a part of who we are as humans. Is it right? No. Does it occur? Absolutley. Even the Soviet Union who's founders strived for the marxist ideal fell at some point to the class idea. It was those who worked in the government who were given great bonuses such as condos on exclusive beaches and other great perks. It's impossible to escape the class mentality. We as humans compare ourselves to others and like to put ourselves on differing rungs of the social ladder. [Alpinestreams] 2002-07-24 05:15:01

New Thoughts thanks to Education turning the Cogs Oh yeah, I'm starting to get really worried about how "Americanised" I really am. How programmed our my responses. Am I really who I would be without having been guided by the military? Well, I'm working on improvement, but it requires a slow but sure process. Maybe I need to learn meditation. [Ope_2] 2002-07-24 00:38:16

I'm Done and a little about Jesus Oh yeah, about faith. It's a tricky one, but faith is tricky in it's nature. [Ope_2] 2002-07-17 23:52:52

I'm Done and a little about Jesus don't apologize for you ignorance. I'd rather not mention what glass is and is why I used the term (so people don't know what it is). It's a slang term for a certain chemical that's not the most favorable, though not cocaine or heroine, some consider it worse, some less, lets just say for every pound of the "shit" made, it's 3-4 lbs of toxic chemicals made as well. Can't be too good for your brain. [Ope_2] 2002-07-17 23:47:54

I'm Done and a little about Jesus You're in a really weird place concerning spiritual issues. I am too. Kind of rethinking the whole what I've been taught thing. Sorry for my ignorance, but, what is glass? [Alpinestreams] 2002-07-17 05:36:38

College Education is Making Me Think Colleges are places more for indoctrination then education. [Alpinestreams] 2002-07-11 01:32:46

College Education is Making Me Think P.S. The reason I don't respect the opinions of a single man anymore is due the reasons I don't respect the foundations of whole denominations due the opinions of one man. I give respect to a "fairly" representative "collective consciousness" form or committee that create what are viewed as "best fit" ideals. A single man is a product of his own flawed environment, experiences, mindset, etc. There is nothing to counter his opinion other than himself; therefore a generally agreed upon opinion by a non-biased representative force I view is socially superior. [Ope_2] 2002-07-11 00:42:32

Reflection I here what your saying. I'm not fully advocating the legalization of drugs as of yet because I don't neccesarily know all the facts. However, I am firm in my belief that the drug war is entirely mis-represented and biased on the side of the govt. [Ope_2] 2002-06-30 02:08:10

Reflection you should definitely do the website thing, sound interesting. [aliki] 2002-06-29 08:10:30

Hello Everyone That's a great book, I read it a couple of years ago and found it very insightful. I played Civilization 3 for awhile and I found it *too* addicting. I am more into multiplayer games now so I have a hard time getting into single players games such as Civil 3. As for your diary, it is interesting. I find where you are in life right now kind of interesting and how your dealing with your ideas of who God is and where you stand in relation to it. The email part is very confusing to read though. Just my flimsy opinion though. :-) [Alpinestreams] 2002-06-11 05:26:27

Update on My Life and Philosophies Good luck! [Alpinestreams] 2002-06-04 04:16:45

Another E-Mail to My Diary Wow, Catfight! Real life drama displayed in my commentary. This is kind of neat. Oh yeah, and trust me, shorty reads everything. [Ope_2] 2002-05-20 23:26:07

Saving face in the plight of immaturity Hehe, that wasn't so hard to get you to come out of the closet. I've talked to Mel, she thinks your one of her friends that's 16, I was debating whether it was someone from the house in Everrette. I think I'm right now. But she's not sure how the fuck you know about the car incident. And basically, I dont' appreciate you dogging my friends on here, this is not your place to have your little wars. [Ope_2] 2002-05-17 15:30:15

Some more personal insight Maybe someone should invent a rotary dialer on a cell phone. Wouldn't that make you the envy of others? [Alpinestreams] 2002-04-18 04:32:55

Religion What a great entry, You're thoughts are interesting and make me wonder about different things. when I have time I'd like to read more then just this page. take care [natigan] 2002-03-20 23:50:43

Some more thoughts just a reminder...keep smiling [tie dye window] 2002-03-07 23:49:00

Doing Better Well, look at it this way, it's better then bouncing around from job to job for 3 years. It's some kind of stability and that looks good to employers. And for whatever reason employers like to hire former military people. [Alpinestreams] 2002-02-20 04:30:17

Cesspool of my Life Two years is great. Not much longer to go. I'm sure you've learned a lot more than you give yourself credit for. You have some kind of life experience that you wouldn't have otherwise. You get to go to college basically for free when you're done if you so choose. You have a lot of options now because of your Marine experience you wouldn't have otherwise. In the job world military experience is not looked down on. It's a plus. You'll understand someday. [Alpinestreams] 2002-02-19 05:15:57

To My Valentine That stinks. Better luck next time... [Alpinestreams] 2002-02-05 05:22:07

One for the Punkers In addition: How far will you go? Don't even start, starting means your willing to go a certain extent to put aside a part of you. [Ope_2] 2002-01-24 01:43:01

Pro's and Con's to the US That's funny, I was under the impression that all countries have rich and powerful people. You find this disparity more often in third world countries where you don't have a middle class, just the rich and the poor. I assure you the rich are always in power in those countries simply because they hold the most cards. (I learned this in a soiology class) Look at the old Soviet Union...the only people who lived in privilage were those in the government. Only they got to enjoy the spoils of the people. I'm sure they weren't hurting for money. And to compare to nazi's and the USA boggles the mind. Beyond all the reading I've done on the subject and beyond the fact I lost relatives in the holocaust, I can tell you that this IS not going to be like Nazi Germany. We are far to diverse for that to happen in many respects. Nazi Germany was a despotic system where Hitler's party brainwashed the country into thinking that there's was a superior race. Nazi germany was anti-religion, anti-expressionist and anti--you name it. Heck, the government has bent over backwards encouraging people to be tolerant of mulims for fear of acklashes against arab populations in the US. As for POW's, I'm not sure what you mean about cassifying Afghan prisoners as unlawful combatants. If we're talking about Al Quida troops, that would make sense since they were in a sense renagade units with no real country. How else would you classify terrorist 'soldiers?" As for prisoner camps know that they will get better treatment than most prisoners would get in the world. [Alpinestreams] 2002-01-12 03:11:23

Ola' That would be tough if you don't have a STD either. But, you're right, love knows no bounds. [Alpinestreams] 2002-01-11 03:18:19

In reply to... I welcome your comments openly AlpineStreams, I actually enjoy hearing from you. You've been very supportive and your opinions come with points to them and that's what I like about you. But everything I do in life either has a good reason as to why I do it (i.e. a belief) or some sort of justification. So if disagreed with, I'm only going to give my reasoning for it. [Ope_2] 2002-01-08 22:06:11

In reply to... You make an interesting argument. I don't totally agree with your views, but I do agree with your thoughts on tobacco and alcohol. Also, remember drug abuse is nothing new. Before the big drugs of the 20th century in the 19th century you had opium being the big hot drug. It's always something. There's a place for laws and a place for lawlessness. I don't have time to write any more since I need to leave work soon...but I appreciate your response. Very thought out and precise. [Alpinestreams] 2002-01-08 05:21:49

Sorry, more on drugs Oops, meant to post my comment in this entry...accidently posted it in the prior entry... :-) [Alpinestreams] 2002-01-07 10:30:01

More on Propaganda I dont know. From a psychological perspective, I think there'd be strong disagreeement with the statement that drug abuse is a 'victomless' crime. For instance, beyond just the abuser, what about their families? How many families are in disaray because of drug abuse? How many people under the influence of drugs have commited gross crimes because they weren't in their right mind? How many people have robbed others for money to support their drug habits? I don't see how legalizing drugs would end these circumstances. The reason certain drugs are illegal is the belief that if they were legal it would lead to a major societal breakdown in many different facets. Obviously, drug abuse is considered enough of a problem in the workplace that most employers require drug tests before employment. I think that alcohol is just as a big a problem on society but I do concede that more people are able to control themselves to some degree and drink in moderation. Lets face it, drug abuse is a lot more powerful than alcohol. The numbers of people who are hooked and can't get off is staggering. Hard issue but giving in is not the solution...

Oh yeah, about my ex- Happy 21st. Phillip Yancey's older books are really good. His newer ones haven't done much for me, but like I said, Disapointment witth God really interested me. Not many Christian writers like him. [Alpinestreams] 2002-01-04 05:41:18

Thanks Alpine and more on the Military Hey Happy 21st!!! I am 21 too, but in six weeks I'll be 22!!! :) Have a great day!! Love always, ozslut :) [ozslut] 2002-01-03 23:44:49

Satan Howdy...I don't really give what I consider the Christian answer...I give my own answer which may or may not fall within the standard of typical Christian thought. In any case, you birng up an interesting thought. Some books I've read that made me think about the question of 'why' were written by Phillip Yancey. He is not afraid to ask why. In his book Disapointment with God (One of my favs) he talks about people he's known who are asking why ___ happened or why _____? (fill in the blank) He comes to the conclusion there is no absolute answer we can find on this earth. sometimes we find out the reasons, and sometimes we are left with a question. his ending point is the best route is the one of faith, asking, rather than why? ask, to what end this struggle? To what end this pain? we have to refocus from the question of why to moving on despite not having all the answers. That's his conclusion and I found it to be really helpful. It may not relate to what you're writing about but I just thought I'd share...since that's what came to mind. [Alpinestreams] 2002-01-03 07:06:55

More on Jealousy Smart! One night stands=bad news [Alpinestreams] 2002-01-02 05:42:06

A little about God again Funny thing about life, you're just going to go in circles because every 'truth' can be found to have holes. I wonder if there's anything wrong with a few holes? [Alpinestreams] 2002-01-01 05:30:35

A Pissed off Nichole Hey, sorry, been away a few days. Your entry a few days ago struck a nerve with me. Not in a bad way but in a way that I can understand. I am someone who when a teenager knew all the answers and had read the bible 3 times through. (Not an easy feat especially when going through the law) I think that in many ways I gathered so much head knowledge I lost focus on what really mattered: A heart knowledge or close walk with God. It's been 9 years since I drifted from where I was but I've never decided I didn't believe in God, it hasn't been easy retaining that faith. I struggle with establishing a 'heart' walk rather than head walk, if that makes any sense. Sometimes, I wish I knew less then I know, it seems to make it more difficult. I think I'm babbling, but I can say pretty confidantly that I can relate to how you feel, though it seems you've gone a step farther than I have gone. That's ok, it's your choice. I struggle but I have hope someday it'll turn around for me. I hate being a prodigal though. It's kind of lonely. [Alpinestreams] 2001-12-28 05:36:39

A Pissed off Nichole I ll e-mail you soon.I just have to get of now.I wish I saw your comment sooner. [chickweed] 2001-12-28 00:25:45

Pissed Off Ckeck out a site called www.davidicke.com.... and go into the Symbols.A really good site. Sorry again to have confused you about the article. [chickweed] 2001-12-27 00:02:19

Reality, Love, and the Soul The article was written by Gary smith not me...sorry if it has confused you,I do have similar belief as him (i am very metaphysical)..but everyone has their own beliefs and should not be hated for then,or tryed to be changed.I think it's ok to have different view points,everyone has their own way to God. I think you Should write an entry on children.that would be interesting,I love reading different peoples opinions,even if they don't quite match my own at times.Take care! [Chickweed] 2001-12-26 01:16:47

Reality, Love, and the Soul To chickweed's comment. It is possible to not love yourself and to love others. Whether this is healthy is another story, but sometimes this is the only reason people delay their own demise, is because they love others. They attempt to live through these others, or latch onto them in some fashion. I used to hate myself when I was younger, I didn't kill myself though because I latched onto those I loved. [Ope_2] 2001-12-26 00:32:13

Reality, Love, and the Soul it is also important to love your self for who u really are,coz if you don't love yourself then you can't love anybody else....so u have a point,...But the love thy neigbour as yourself is like...Love your neighbour as you want to be loved by your neighbour,I mean if u don't want to be hated then don't hate,another universal law Like attracts like....Ok Have a Great New Years,wishing you lots of Love,happiness and Laughter! [Chickweed] 2001-12-25 23:51:43

Things are becoming more clear Thanks for the encouragement. I sincerely doubt facing getting kicked out without brig time. They go hand in hand. [Ope_2] 2001-12-20 18:43:10

Things are becoming more clear I think you'll escape time in the brig and at the worst be looking at being booted out of the military. If they don't have a positive blood test then they don't have absolute evidence. You're paying it smart-not giving away too much info and standing up for your rights. You didn't fall for their stunts-at least they didn't use hardball tactics on you such as threatening you with 10 years. Good luck! In any case, maybe this is a wake up call for you. If you make it through this ok I'm sure you won't forget how close you came. [Alpinestreams] 2001-12-20 03:40:22

Undeniable Rights I don't think Walker commited treason in that he went out there to fight against the USA. As you wrote, he went over there before any of this happened. However, if I'm right, he took up arms against US soldiers and also took part in the prison uprising. So, I do think he did put his citizenship up for question with his actions. It's one thing to leave your country to fight for a cause, a whole other to take up arms against your countryman. I have zero sympathy for him at all. He chose his lot and it was with a very shadowy group. In any case, I wish you the best as you are leaving soon. I hope it gos well and you are safe wherever your journeys take you. [Alpinestreams] 2001-12-19 03:34:40

RIP Sprocket No, he knew the rules and broke them. Drugs laws help maintain some semblance of order in our screwed up society. At least there's a standard. I am for drug laws vs. none. But 10 years is too much. I'd settle for him getting kicked out of the military and getting fined, something like that. I think that punishment is too severe. [Alpinestreams] 2001-12-11 05:28:59

RIP Sprocket you know weeds gettin legalised in the new year in england. [goose] 2001-12-08 15:54:04

Afghan Well, good luck. There's talk of this moving on to other countries. Hope it all works out for you! [Alpinestreams] 2001-12-06 04:17:02

Which is Worse? That's a tough question. In some society's, violence is not easy for children to escape from, but certain elements of nudity is. I have to admit that nudity offends me more than violence. That may be due to my being desensitized to it. Even still, most nudity in movies is shown in a sexual context which I think only detracts from most movies. [Alpinestreams] 2001-12-05 03:44:45

Which is Worse? That's a good point. After all we were born naked. People don't think we have the maturity to watch naked people. lol. [Peachy LaCrane] 2001-12-04 23:08:44

Washington Girl First off, I never said she WAS desperate. I said it seemed. I understand perfectly well her motives and her motives are not ill. I wouldn't have felt comfortable writing this if I didn't believe otherwise because I know she'd read it. [Ope_2] 2001-11-29 20:01:20

I Hate Marines At least your honest about where you're at right now and your feelings. I think you made the right choice in piping down about voicing your opinions. There's a time for an opinion. But a smart person keeps it to himself if it means survival- in a sense. Hopefully you'll get off the drugs. I won't preach at ya'. But, they don't have much long term benefit for you. I'm sure you'll figure it all out in your own way. Good luck! [Alpinestreams] 2001-11-27 04:34:30

I Hate Marines What am I talking about! Well, I guess every entry I expect someone to know about the prior entries, but I'm talking about my friggin' occupation and how I don't like it! [Ope_2] 2001-11-26 01:01:42

I Hate Marines what are you talking about? [SweetRemebrance] 2001-11-26 00:24:11

War I'm impressed with your courage... and I hope that you do get the chance to see your family before things get out of control. It is awful that this has happened to our nation, but I do think that we should be grateful that it doesn't happen often like in so many other places. ~Anna [CallMeANNA] 2001-09-23 15:48:18

Some Opinions on Abortion I agree completley. To minimalize men's opinions just because they are men makes no sense. It takes two to tango. Itakes a lot of courage to have a pro-life opinion in this culture as it's considered quite noble to be "pro-choice." But, in truth, where's the choice in the whole matter? Only one choice is presented...that being legal abortion staying legal. [Alpinestreams] 2001-09-07 05:28:29

Abortion Again I have been reading your diary for a while now, and though all the entries are good and though provoking, I found these last 2 to be very interesting. I happen to disagree with you on your pro life. I guess that to each their own opinion. I can understand how this might be hard for you because I've had friends in the same position and it's been extreamly hard for them. I guess that you did the right thing for you, and I'm glad that you didn't try to push her to carrying the baby to term. You seem like a respectable guy and one who just wants what's best for the person. I love reading your entries, and they always spark some kind of thought. I hope that you are able to be her friend without beating your self up over this. I hope that things go okay for you [ShortOne] 2001-07-28 01:40:51

Abortion PS I have read a lot of your diary...especially the first half, and have enjoyed it very much! [Cruncher] 2001-07-25 01:02:55

Abortion We have very similar viws on abortion. I too am pro life, and have never for the life of me(no pun intended) understood the position of pro choicers. In fact I think you have inspired me to write my own entry on this topic. Maybe somebody here can enlighten me. Since when is choice a higher virtue than not murdering. The crux of their argument is I have a right to do with my body what I want to. That is their central argument. I tried reading an entire book from the point of view of a prochoicer, and couldn't get through it! It was mere intellectual rationalization a way from the clear conclusion she would have been forced to come to had she not kept rationaizing it a way!

Anyway, that was rambelling far far from this entry. This whole situation must have been a very difficult one for you. I admire you for standing behind this girl AND at the same time staying true to your convictions. I hope that you can somehow come to a resolution. [Cruncher]

2001-07-25 01:02:03

Hmm...life sucks. Any kind of healing takes time. Being hurt sucks, and not knowing what you're going to do about it is even worse. You seem like a strong person and will be able to take what is thrown at you even if you don't like it. Stay strong and take each day one day at a time. [ShortOne] 2001-06-07 11:38:53

Trouble cool :-) [rissjane] 2001-05-26 20:43:39

Endurance That is very touching. I'm a Christian myself, and practice it everday. I'm soneone who knows that I need Him to help me with what I need to do. Be strong and he will lead the way for you. God's Peace! [ShortOne] 2001-04-09 20:09:43

One night stands So what are you saying makes a meaningful relationship? [Levi] 2001-03-30 15:42:35

Further Thoughts Everyone struggles in their faith. You just have to make sure you don't turn your back to it. If you know the choices you are making, aren't the right ones, then quit doing them. Tomorrow may never come. You shouldn't want to be a lukewarm Christian. Make everything right before Jesus. Ask him for help. Rely on him. The road less taken is the harder road, but it takes you to a better place in the end. Life is short. Pray hard. [jello] 2001-01-02 23:23:20

Some Thoughts I think your life can be an insperation to people because you live your life as a ture Christian or at least that is what you write ,but anyways I hope that people look up to you as someone that they can talk to.Just a thought.Stay true to yourself.[princess for life] 2000-11-12 17:57:55

For a beginning. Hi! Just to let you know that Christianity is all about being forgiven...when Christ forgives you He knows you won't be perfect. He is always working on you, and knows you'll mess up. He's glad you realize your mistakes, just learn that you are forgiven and don't let it hinder you. Be strong and take courage, sister! In God's Love, A Friend.[Rosedrops] 2000-11-07 19:43:05
