if that is directed at me, I have no question. Questions are posed when answers are needed. I already know the answer.

well since you all are responding to my second guessed post I will add to it. Sure I could go to some religious forum or Fark.com (whatever that is). I consider quite a few people here friends, internet friends at the very least. Even if I will never meet them all face to face. I enjoy having discussions with friends. Why would I want to go to some foreign message board and discuss my feelings with people I do not know, nor care to know? Hell there are people on here I have no doubt I have pissed off at one time or another. There are people here who have pissed me off. For the most part differences here have been conquered and we all get along, remaining friends. This place is, no make that WAS special. Heck it ain't so much special any more. Seems awful stuffy sometimes. Maybe I should just keep my mouth shut and revert to my original post in this thread. No one gives a flyin' leap anyway.

I believe it was war with technically, our country Isn't the profitability of gas companies directly related to record amounts of gasoline and diesel being purchased? NOOOOOOOOOOO, let the Arabs use up there stuff first. Lets save ours for when everyone else is running on empty. We need a renewable sourse of energy. Not one that will cause our dependency to switch from one fossil fuel to another. Suing OPEC is about what I would expect from this congess.

here is another gratutitous post just to bump the post count!

one thing I always found humorous about religion is that as a Catholics I always got a kick out of Baptists being against smoking and drinking and gambling but not minding divorce. Catholics have big church festivals (at least in Cincinnati) every summer and there are cigars and beer gardens and Jumbo Poker. But don't go getting divorced then you can't be a catholic. I also believe a lot of organized religion is to populate into power and to control the hoards.

I have not shot BP since Saturday but I will give it a whirl this weekend for sure. For one using the flask will enable me to not have to use a loading stand therefore giving me another loading option. Also if I am in the field I can haul less items now. Just balls, caps and powder and wads/lube. I don't see anything wrong with XD's grips, mt Remington has a screw in it and loos fine. I do not even feel it when shooting. If I was going to replace them I would order a set already near finished. I do not have time to look right now but I found a grip site one time that gave instructions about tracing your grips. Then they could make replicas that fit good. I love that brass framed '51. It is a really good shooter. Though if I had it to do over I would spend the extra money and get a steel framed on like XD did. but as long as I keep the loads moderate the gun will last a long long time. And for sure them revolvers are as deadly as any newfangled tacticool handgun on the market. When we shot with Mars we used his contraption and measured the speed of the lead coming from my percussion revolvers. I was averaging near 800 fps. Certainly enough to cause massive trauma or death to those hit with one of them balls. Lead poisoning at the very least. And if you get shot close up with one there is a very good chance you will be set afire as well as shot. Any reason why you are trying to pull the nipple on that rifle? I am guessing the Kroil will work. I have seen pics of a .44 cut down into a snubby. At best it was a two inch barrel. It definitely would make a heck of a hide-out gun. You pocket police is sweet. I would love to see on with a 3 inch barrel. The slenderness of it would lend itself to concealment. That would conceal well enough even with the 6 inch barrel. theonly concern I would have with shortening the barrel is how much speed would the ball have when it was shot. i guess being shot from a few feet it would not really matter. If I was not emotionally attached to my old '51 I would consider cutting it down.

My aunt, the Nun, was also one of my teachers in the 6th and 8th grades. In the sixth grade during religion class she was asked this same question by a kid in my class. Don't know why this stuck with me but it did. (Ask me what I had for lunch a few days ago and I would be hard pressed to answer) Anyway her reply was something like, "as long as that person holds true to the beliefs in their religion they will be able to get into heaven." Bill if I was closer to Nashville I would have to pay you a visit big boy

Wow, you all got very deep. I like to keep it simple when possible. Don't know if it is possible in this thread. Nate says Why are we born sinners? This is a real issue for me, does not make sense. Is it because the Bible says its so? Mikey what is the Dake Bible? I have read The Book. I did like the plain language in it. The Bible is an extremely violent book. -
if you don't go to the meetings you are not an alcoholic, your a drunk

This thread has some real potential. I for one am not afraid to speak of my doubts of God. I was baptized and raised catholic. I have been exposed to most of what you speak about. I was a firm believer in God and religion until I grew up. I recieved education for 12 years from parochial schools. I have an aunt who is a Dominican nun and no doubt would be heartbroken if she ever knew my doubts or beliefs. She told me once that God, while all loving is a just God and you will answer for any sins you have. I for one have a hard time having blind faith. I need to see something to make me believe. I am sure some of you can point out episodes that prove to you the existence of God. What has driven me from belief is very simple. And it is a question I posed in the other thread. Why do children get leukemia? God is all loving and just, but what did children do to deserve this? When this question can be answered my beliefs may change. It sounds simple and to me it is. This is exactly the same type of thing Musicman and his friends from church are dealing with. While maybe some way and some how the parents did something to deserve the pain they must be feeling the child certainly did not. Why is this child not perfect , going to full term and being born? Why would God allow this? These questions are absolutely at the root of my doubt. Musicman states How do you know this? Do you KNOW? Or do you suspect? No one has come out on this board. I would tend to think that there are a few gay people on this board simply based on statistics. Musicman also states I don't have a clue as to why it would not be this way. Diversity makes life interesting. If we were all the same things would be very boring. Steelharp states This is all very new to me. I was taught to believe in the Holy Trinity. And in that all three are God. Actually your entire post is very deep. It needs more thought on my part and pretty much does not line up with what I was taught in Catholic school. And ain't it interesting that this whole thing came from a silly joke? -
Flora Bama. I am actually drinking a beer in a Flora Bama can coozie right now, that place is the best bar on the face of the earth
-
Well you did not deny the mullet
-
And that is what makes the joke funny.

I actually am laughing out loud. If Dotsun has one shred of manhood he will use the pic as his avatar. LOLLOOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

why is Dotsun showing as half male/half female?
-
RBC , you just get paroled? Aint' seen you here in a while. C'mon admit it, you have one (badge). I bet you had a mullet once too, LOL

as for thread drift, especially in the OT area I say show me a thread that does not have drift and you are showing me a thread that is not very interesting. We have threads every where on here that go all over the place. To me it makes it interesting. This has been an entertaining thread and I look forward to reading it after the people who do not have interet access at work get home and put their two cents in.

seriously I don't know how some guy can look at some other guys hairy butt and get worked up over it, biggest basis for my opinion about choice. I am kind of sweet on Dotsun though And so it is clear, the original joke is very funny imho.
