Oh good, I really was hoping to go to an ice cream shop.

I don’t get it.
Based on my reading, most (near) death experiences are positive, dare I say heavenly. Of the few that are negative or “hellish,” some of those even describe being pulled from “hell” and brought into “heaven” after death, implying post-death repentance is possible. I don’t know if any of those are true, as I’ve not experienced them, but they’re nice additions to the buffet of food for thought.
I’d be interested to know how many of these experiences, both good and bad, come from religious vs. non-relgious people, and especially those who weren’t religious until very late in life.
Also the murderers.
I decided to add the :p to indicate I was joking/teasing.
You tease, but I was serious. That’s, in part, why I didn’t want to answer your question about Hell at the time. Because I wasn’t sure you weren’t just making noise. You yourself say that you don’t, and won’t, take this place seriously.
It’s not an hard and fast rule.
Thank you for answering though.
Pink Floyd is so good!

Guess I’ll spell it out next time.
Or just the mother, the father, and the doctor! :p
I’m in a similar boat with you. I saw and enjoyed all the PT films when I was a kid but at the time I didn’t think either TPM or AOTC quite measured up to the OT (AOTC in particular was something of a disappointment to me at the time).
Huh. I liked the prequels more than the OT for years as a child. It wasn’t until I was 12 that I came to find them inferior. For a while I really disliked them, but now I’ve come back around and enjoy them again (except TPM, what a slog).
Well I was blessed with the OT before I saw the PT so I knew what was good right beforehand and had that to measure the PT against.
Yeah but, so was I, sorta. Well, I started with TPM, which I thought was okay, then I went on to the OT which I enjoyed, and then watched AOTC and ROTS which blew me out of the water.
But, like, why though?
Man, I can’t really remember. I think because they had better special effects
They didn’t though. They were more fancy yes, but except for a couple instances where they look dated I would say the ots effects looked more realistic. They just weren’t as wild.

How do you double post with two different reptiles?

Every Which Way But Loose or Any Which Way You Can?
Discuss.
No.
Someone’s never seen Chris Hemsworth.
Don’t forget all the other Chrises.
Yeah. Why should female nudity be treated differently?
It shouldn’t, although it’s important to note that typically that movement refers to women deciding for themselves to go shirtless, whereas in film/TV it’s often all males making those decisions (which is where the objectification issue can arise).
Last I heard, actors choose which roles they take.
Only the most powerful ones and much more on the male side. Very few women can afford to turn down a role, else they get blacklisted and never work again.
Every wonder why it took so long for women to speak out against Harvey Weinstein?
On nudity: Women are built like a nice sportscar, men are built like a Ford Pinto. Most people would rather see the sportscar.
Wow.
An interesting ‘Fact Check’ video on Trump’s recent speech on the Iran deal…
I was into this kind of stuff when he was running and first in office. There’s no point in fact checking anything he says anymore though.
I can’t trust anything in this thread to be in i
Yeah but you think a topless man and a topless woman are the same.
Ok.
That strikes me as a weird question.
I don’t think it’s weird.
Cool.
But you’re still trying to make comparisons that make no sense.
That strikes me as a weird question.
Saying that both are murder makes one of them not matter? How?
If I were to say, “killing a 24-year-old man is murder, but killing a 67-year-old woman isn’t because that life is worth less,” that would be ludicrous. Both are murder. It doesn’t matter which one was the more morally wrong when you’re deciding what defining term to attach to it. All are examples of murder, they just are under different circumstances and have different affects.
Sorry I don’t understand, given that I’m dense and ignorant.
He didn’t say “civilized.” :p
Lol.
It’s not civil?
The “yeah, I guess” wasn’t meant to undermine the 14-year-old girl, it was just an admittance that they are different situations.
However you seem to think they’re way too similar. “Murder is murder” trivializes the 14-year-old, sorry.
The attitude that it’s murder to abort a six-week-old fetus but a person who murdered a fully developed person can completely wipe the slate clean by accepting Jesus is revolting to me.
Murder is murder.
If you think aborting a six week old fetus is in any way comparable to someone coming into your house at night and killing your family, raping the corpses, and burning the house to the ground…
This post is ridiculous. When did I ever compare those situations? The killing of multiple people, raping the corpses, and burning the house are all things that you added to make me sound absurd even though I never mentioned those things. All I’m saying is that killing a person who is outside the womb at any age is considered murder by pretty much everyone, and in my opinion killing a fertilized egg/fetus is also murder. Is it “more bad” to kill a 14-year-old girl than a six-week fetus? Yeah, I guess
I stopped reading right there. “Yeah, I guess” when comparing a six-week-old fetus to a 14-year-old girl. Unbelievable.
And sorry for being so dense and ignorant. [eyeroll]
