You know them space hopper things? Those rubber balloon things that you sit on and bounce?

I've got one, from when I was younger.

Anyways I decided (for reasons that are as yet unclear) to go bouncing on it naked around the flat.

Thing is, I had a somewhat unfortunate encounter while I was bouncing. I let go of the handle things, and it was all going well until the whole thing slipped sideways.

One of the handles went somewhere it really shouldn't have gone!!

But it felt good, so I carried on bouncing regardless, and had to shampoo the carpet afterwards.

The question is: Should I have married the space hopper first, or is sex outside of marriage ok if it's not intentional, or with a toy?

Please I am not joking, this is genuine, and I'm scared that God won't be happy with me.

If you were told before you had a child that he or she would not accept God, and would ignore what you teach them, would you still have a child in the first place?

I was just wondering if people would and what religions would they accept. Or does it depend on the person?

I'm just asking because the person I like is Jewsih and I'm afraid I'll get rejected when he finds out that I am not.

I got my license a couple of hours ago. I took a cold shower. I am making a hot cup of tea for myself. Life is gooood.

To make this question R & S related, I didn't bother to pray before getting my license. (yes, I am an atheist). and I still got it.

And I also haven't seen any stupid questions yet..which makes it all the more better.

now that the Creation musuem has been open for a little while, skeptics have been no doubt compaining about it, in the media and such.

but myself, as a skeptic, i have taken a very different view about it.
of course, for the people who have been forced to believe in all that fundamentalist junk as children, they feel that the creation museum is a "super-duper" response to all that "godless spitefull dissent" from "godless, biased" scientists and skeptics.

but before you get your panties in a knot over all the nonsense that is in that FARCE, you should realize how the average, sensible christian would react if they ever set foot in a place like that.

Really, if you haven't already, read about all the stuff that is in that place.
I can't help but to imagine that, if anything, the museum would make most sensible people doubt all that B.S. that these people are trying to feed down christians' throats.

Jesus died for the sins of all mankind so at the moment of conception your name is put into the book of life. When one, of their of free will, rejects God's way to eternal life than they are responsible for removing their own name from that book.

As for me, my name is written in blood. How about you?

by this I mean that those who read the bible don't understand that halos are from the ancient symbol for the sun, Christ's blood is from ancient blood rituals, rising from the dead is also from ancient society or the fact that these ideas were incorporated into one religion to help control the masses under one religion because people still feared the unknown and did not want to oppose "god"?

Atheists are the most mistrusted minority in the US, Christians seem to have a problem with us, so if you have something against us I want to hear it!

For me, it's playing with my children and seeing them laugh. My 3 1/2 year old is a girl and my 1 1/2 year old is a boy. The boy is the funny one, where the girl is the "maternal" one. I get a kick out of how he has started to scrunch his face up as a way of acting like arguing, and then bursting into laughter when I give him a funny look. My daughter is cute because she is so protective of him. I thank God everyday for these two, and being with them is a spiritual experience. My son is very much a mama's boy, and cries if I leave the room even if he isn't by me every moment. What gives you the greatest joy? Is that joy spiritual for you? Is something so simple as making a child laugh a thing which makes you smile just in rememberance?

Right so I have this friend, lets call him McGoofey. A while back he started to investigate the "TRUTH" movement, which says that a global elete committed 9/11. He was, ignoring the massive evidence against his claim, convinced that there is a group of jewish bankers that control the world. This group has been trying, ever since the fall of the bronze age; to create a 'new world order'. This new world order is, in essance a secrete government, which is despotic in rule. This group is within our own government, watching our everymove. It also pays the 'insurgents' in Iraq to attack US troops. He also believes in an 'astro-plane' which is essentially a newage heaven in which we are all one consinousness, living together. He is also under the impression that he can access this via meditation and self denial.To me this sounds like insanity, at the least dellusion. What do you think?

My daughter wrote this, I would love comments. Please.?

Inside Army

Sometimes I wonder
If the battle is worth fighting
If I should give into the monster
The monster inside me, eating

Trying to swallow me whole
I try to stop it
Before it engolfs my soul
Or should I let it

I am a one man army
All alone to battle
A vicious thing inside me
Am I worth the rattle

I feel like giving up
For I am truly alone
I try to reach out
But nobody is home

I thought you were there for me
To help me fight my battle
Even you gave up on me
And now I feel so little

Once more on my own
To capture the creature inside me
The one that has only grown
Since you left my inside army

I wonder why I bother
Why I keep on going
I wish that I could smother
Myself and just stop living

Then I would just surrender
Myself to whats inside me
The beast would be the victor
And beat my inside army

You know, they are promised everything but given nothing. They exist in a constant state of hatred for those who disagree. And they are routinely scammed by conmen claiming to speak for a fictional being who takes their hearts, their minds and their money.
