  do you care if tom cruise is a scientologist?

  or that mitt romney is a mormon?

  or that a person is either a very devout muslim or a card carrying communist?

  It depends on how much they affect my life. Romney being a Mormon believes Joseph Smith had special glasses so that only he could read the divine word from the gold plates, that's crazy talk. I could never vote for someone who believes in such nonsense. Someone needs to call him on Mormonism at one of the public interviews they call debates.
  
  The average mormon on the street though, as long as they're harmless I really don't care much. One of my co-workers was a mormon, very nice person, but I didn't discuss religion with him much.

  Are we doomed to dysfunction forever?

  by tnangel73 in

  1. social
  2. relationships

  i have had a pretty screwed up life, as a lot of people who post on here have had.

  this last year has seemed to be the worst i have experienced.

  growing up the way i did, and now seeing how we were lied to, controlled, and not given choices, i now have no trust in anyone or anything.

  I don't have an answer, but I know how it feels. It's hard to let people close, but it is a two way street, you have to move some, too. The closest thing I can liken it to is Smeagol and Gollum, Gollum being that little voice always on the look out for the slightest snub or perhaps mijudgement on the part of others so it can say "See!? I told you they was tricksy. I told you they was false.". It's not as dramatic as Smeagol and Gollum, but I think it is a learned protective mechanism. My little gollum isn't as loud he used to be, but it's still there.

  As I recall it went the UN would turn against "false" religion, and that would begin the great tribulation, then when they would turn against the witnesses that would start armageddon. I remember explaining this at school at least once, they must've thought I was some kinda loon or something. :p

  Tell everyone to stop preaching, then if the rocks and trees cry out then the kingdom is real.
  
  Get a crazy look in your eyes and say you have found the evidence, but only you can see it, and they just have to trust you that it is real.

  I drove by a gas station that said 3.39 for premium, that one station is usually more expensive though. I paid 3.19 for premium last fill up.
