I've debated moving, but I'm too settled in now. It'd be hard to just pack up and leave.Sfonzarelli wrote:Oh, that's a shame.

I think everyone has... It's not a huge mystery that he was talking about spanking it.ravensgrace wrote:http://lonelygirl15.com/forum/viewtopic ... 7168#27168JerseyJohnny wrote:In other words, it's a huge secret, since you still won't talk about it. LOLMAO, love the doubletalk!
Reading a couple of pages back, before posting, is generally a good idea. Tannhaus and I have already posted on this topic.
Calling religion "silly" as you have done several times is insulting to those who have any belief in any religion, by association. So, an attack was made by you. The sad thing is that you are probably honest in that you can't see it at all. It's like the racist who has no concept that he's a racist, it's a sad, sad thing. Awareness is the first step to improvement.BlackRiven wrote: I suggest you drop the attitude. Your anger is way out of proportion and has to do more with your associations to a personal attack than any actual attack that was made.
That's "naturalism". That is based on the philosophy that "existence" is that which we can sense with our physical senses only. If you would study philosophy you'd learn about this.BlackRiven wrote: As for concrete proof, it exist as long as it refers to things of concrete nature. If there's a tree, it's there. That's indesputable.
If you want to put it that way, then yes, my "biggest problem" is that I think it's about different philosophies. In which case YOUR biggest problem is failing to be aware or educated on differing philosophies and their impacts on our lives.BlackRiven wrote: ...that's your biggest problem, you think this is about different philosophies. It's about how atheists haven't heard any conclusive proof for the existance of God or anything else that has religious nature.
I have horrible luck with thelemite women. We clash. At most, I can hope for a good lay...but chances are, we won't even get that far before we don't like each other.sororyzbl wrote:You need an EGCatholica school girl. Although, they're not as slutty.
Well, I live in New Orleans. The other day I was in the office with my boss and a coworker. The coworker said an expletive and the boss gasps "Don't curse around him!". So, not only am I normal...people seem to think I'm innocent.sororyzbl wrote:Dude, I'm totally normal.Outside of the temple and the internet, I'm a mild mannered IT professional in non-threatening heels and smart casual attire.

Actually, vodou and voudou were used long before voodoo. The spelling voodoo came about in the 19th/20th centuries in anti-voudou propaganda. It was popularized in the early 20th century in terribly erroneous hollywood drivel.Hmmmm wrote:One comment/question about a slightly OT issue a coupla pages back: there was reference to <voudou> as a more "correct" spelling than <voodoo>. Seems to me, though, that these are both transliterations (attempts to represent in the Roman alphabet a language not originally written with same, or not written at all) and as such one can't be judged as more "correct" than the other (sort of like the various spellings for the word /kabala/).
Seems more likely to me that those who are invested in however-it's-spelled would prefer to disassociate themselves from the pop-culture assumptions inherent in the spelling <voodoo> and re-legitimize their religion/philosophy with the new spelling <voudou>. But if so they should acknowledge it as such.
No..it just did more to slander the religion in the US and drive it underground...to the point of extinction in many places. It turned the children against the religion of their ancestors. It didn't really do anything GOOD for voudou.Sfonzarelli wrote:The terribly erronious Hollywood drivel just gave us more power.
