Im gay and am sick and tired of all you bible bashers offering advice to us gay people. We cant change so why dont you quit with the 'Pray for god' and 'I'll pray for you' speeches? There is no 'god' and if you opened your eyes you would realise that you are all being brainwashed. Look at all the conflict in the world caused by your warped out 'religion'. If there is a god, hes up there now laughing at you all as to how hes conned you into causing so much hatred, segregation and conflict in the world

Straight (but not narrow) kinky M&F couple visiting Folsom Street Fair/Leatherfest in couple weeks; plane, hotel room booked. Have already hit Google for major links on Folsom SF/Leatherfest and on SF tourism, also found couple restaurant links. Now refining the search--HELP!!!

Any suggestions on best enjoying this event? Site info indicates lots of crowding & public transit best; other special tips or "you HAVE to catch this show during FSF!"

Also looking for reasonably priced eating places for use during the Fair---geographic area is South of Market District, between 7th and 12th Streets. Any recommendations?

I'd like for them to have the best time possible and do NOT know the city, so any insider information would be great. Thanks!

Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.

For a religion that teaches that individuals are made in the image of God - then takes away their ability to reason and make a thoughtful decision by saying, 'Seek God's will on the matter'.

Do you agree that this is a big problem with the religious right?

He came to this earth to restore His people and teach us to live in His love. To build the Kingdom. And we tear it down and rip on other Christians and suspect people. I know that I came to Christ because life sucked and I found that the people of God loved me unconditionally(most of them). Why do some of you here think that you can bring others closer to the God of love by condemning what faith they have and telling them that they are dirt. Why would a muslim(for instance or a pagan) want to choose Jesus if His people are mean? (chick Publications are Mean spirited not WWJD)

1. Some fall off to the side and are taken away by birds.
2. Some fall onto stony ground, grow quickly, but then die just as quickly when things turn bad.
3. Some fall among thorns and grow a bit, but then are choked off by the vines.
4. Some fall onto fertile ground and deliver a massive return to the sower of the seeds.

13 And he said unto them, Know ye not this parable? And how then will ye know all parables?

14 The sower soweth the word. 15 And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts. 16 And these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness; 17 And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word’s sake, immediately they are offended. 18 And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word, 19 And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful. 20 And these are they which are sown on good ground; such as hear the word, and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some an hundred.

Astral projection, and switching cords are two steps for achieving the manifestation of this phenomenon. There are also other ways, so I've heard... lol, I'm trying to be serious here, lol. I'm sure that there are people out there who have genuine interests in exploring & experimenting with this knowledge, or who have perhaps experienced it before. The possibilities are boundless. lol, I cirtainly hope that this topic is not perceived as too, seemingly ludicrous for receiving any notable responses. If you want try this w/me, or perhaps you have knowledge regarding it; feel free to send me an email, or a message.

It has occurred to me for some time that insurance companies are refining their liability more and more with unreasonable policy parameters, so thier exposure to liability is far less. Whilst I understand there are commercial imperatives for this I also believe there are strong indications that it is not all about honest, above board commerce. For example, how many people do you know who have been 'caught' with a housing policy that does not cover this or that particular aspect because the policy parameters were not met? I knows of many. This lack of taking responsibility for the business they claim ot be in: Insurance is expanding into all areas of our lives and businesses and our community suffer. It is as if we accept that by default that Insurance companies are Big Brother and fast becoming The Law behind the law. This is not a mad conspiracy theory. Think about it. Why are we letting it happen??
