sci-fi, comics, star wars, video games, anime, hobbits, magic: the gathering, etc.
), but who lets his passion override social graces.

This is obviously some sort of joke. Both sets of photos, especially the Muslim one are obviously photoshopped. xD

that time when i get all angry and dark, full of vengeful thoughts, poisonous resentment.
Crap! What kind of manual does one need to learn to use this board format? Most of the stuff I try don't work! Grrrrr!!!

Hokay, here's the drama theme music for my day. Dedicated to WTBTS, GB, and all the people [including family members] who shunned and otherwise disenfranchised me from their lovely establishment.

i mean the above question out of sincerity and honesty and not trying to belittle anyones beliefs or lack there of.. my point is if armageddon don't happen or the rapture within the next 1000 years or so, how long will man keep holding out hope for a divine being, whether it be jesus, jehovah, allah or "fill in the blank" to come and solve all the problems?.
do you feel that there is a timetable of any sort?.
if god hasn't manifested himself/herself/itself in say 5000 years from now to all mankind, do you think the majority at that time will still be clinging to a belief in a higher power if nothing at all has changed as far as their "appearing,coming, calling us to them etc."?.
@Adso: roflmao!! That sounds about as likely as anything else i guess. I suppose they'll also be 'decrypting' our currunt usage of internet acronyms like LOL, roflmao, and trying to decipher the inconology of things like :) :( :P ^__^ amongst others. Who knows? Councils may gather and debate the possible reliligiosity of these symbols and make a religion based on their conclusions! xD indeed.
does anyone else see the implied jesus reference in this video?

as in you can't understand what they're singing because it's mostly screaming or you can't understand the meaning of the lyrics? xD

It's highly possible that we, as a species, may not survive that long. Many species have perished and human beings are no more relavent than any other thing in existence just because we possess reason and logic. Especially considering that we apply our reason and logic in decidedly unreasonable and illogical ways.
If it doesn't come to that, it will depend upon the mass waking up and smelling the coffee and actually learning from history. It's not great people like our leaders who need to learn from history, it's the mass of people who need to learn that it's the minority of extremely wealthy and powerful who create false systems like a money-backed-by-nothing economy and their butt buddy, religion who fills the role of extending 'hope' to obtain willing co-operation from the very mass of humanity whos vital energy they rob to sustain their extravagance.
People need to learn that you're born, you live, you die. Do right because it's right without basing those actions on something they hope the unknown will be.
At this point in my life I don't really care. Either way is fine. Let mankind die off the earth and make way for the animals to have their chance at 'humanity.' We've botched it royally. Surely the planet would breathe a sigh of relief if we were gone. We are irrelevant to the survival of all other species. We wont be missed.

p.s. I.....hate....this board format. >:-(
i'm very hesitant about starting this thread .
because i don't want to judge anyone or inspire hatred myself.
also, i believe i'm past the anger/bitterness thing well and truly.. so i'm asking this question not out of emotion .
Actually, I'd have to go with the Westboro Baptist Church. Of course they're not an organized religion in the sense that the Witnesses, Catholic and Mormons are. Historically, I'd have to say the Catholics have been the most hateful, if not in doctrine, then in practice over the past 2 milleniums.
hello everybody.. even thinking about typing this thread as i lay here in bed at 11.30 at night, is hard enough, but i found some sort of motivation to do it.. i dont expect a massive response really, i guess all i really want to do is empty my mind out and stop things whirring over and over.. i am worried for my brother (younger brother he is 23) he is in guernsey channel islands (uk) and is in and out of intensive care drugs etc an there are a thousand more strings attached.
(drugdealers after him, homeless, jobless, about to go to prsion long story).
its a worry for me as his older brother.
perhaps i THINK TOO MUCH!
You hit the nail right on the head there.
This is probably why you have such a difficult time not abusing your Valium. Sometimes I toss and turn all night. Getting up, checking my farmville game on FB, trying to sleep again, getting up and playing Harvest Moon, trying to sleep again. Anything to shut my mind the hell up. I bet you have very deep philosophical conversations with yourself, don't you? "Blah, blah, blah..blarbity..what then? What then?" Am I close to the mark? And other nights you have to get up because you're very excited and enthused about something your mind was wheeling on about.
If I'm correct in my guess, you probably think around corners so fast that you bump right back into yourself rounding the last corner! And getting caught up in cyclic thoughts, spinning your gears till you blow a head gasket. And then flump! You crash and feel like there's no solution to anything, everything's pointless and nothing matters.
I've been to the nut hut 10 times since the age of 19 for suicidal ideations.
I also hear you on the not dating bit too. I haven't had anything like real sex in 7 years. My ex stopped having sex with me before we split up for a year due to his own hangups. I had a brief affair, then we moved up north here in PA, USA. Five years of separation and one year of being divorced and I still can't be bothered with the annoyance of dating even though I'm lonely for companionship and touch starved for hugs, cuddling and sex. Mostly on account of still being hung up on my ex, who would gladly have what amounts to a sexless, live apart relationship. He is my best friend now that we've been separated and divorced.
I cant relate to the cutting. I tried it one time and that only to see what the fuss was all about. I'm way too much of a wuss. Don't berate yourself for cutting, but do try to seek help for it.
You sound to me as though you may have Borderline Personality Disorder and perhaps manic depressive as well. Double whammy.
I wish I could tell you how to properly use your Valium, but I've never had a problem taking my xanax as prescribed. You probably need to not be taking them, since you have relief for five days and then suffer the rest of the month. I was that way with pain killers.
Here's a song I bet you'd like and be able to relate to. It's kind of depressing, but I love to listen to it when I feel down on myself. Probably doesn't help me much, but it's music. *shrugs*

And having listened to that, here's something absolutely stunning and beautiful to bring you up!
