for once i find myself agreeing with pink

funny i always felt just the opposite. that it was easier not to demand an explanation. i always viewed it as the weaker choice. It has always seemed to me that religion and faith were for those that needed a security blanket. “hey if I screw up this time around, there’s a second chance in the afterlife” or “if I’m really good, I’ll get to go to heaven” not “I’ll be a good human cuz that’s just the right thing to do” Seems like it’s harder to make the tough choices if there’s no carrot out there for you or no threat of eternal damnation. I respect those that can make the tough choice b/c it’s the right choice w/o having religious beliefs acting as a carrot or a stick

i think we should rank them in order of importance

ummm...true in a secular context they are synonyms but the religious faction has obsconded w/the word faith. when used in the context of religion discussion "faith" often takes on a more specific and religious conotation. i have faith that my cat will be alive when i get home. i trust my climbing partner to give me a good belay. i don't have faith or trust that there is an omnipotent being that meddling in the goings on of the world and my life. i don't have faith in that believing in god/jesus/the holy ghost/the bible/any other prophet will get me to some "promised land"

well #1 is pointless and therefore #2 is also. and #3 oops and #4 also. what day is the sabbath anyway? that is uniquely religion specific the rest of them are useful

i'm outraged. trust me totally outraged.

hopefully the weather forecast is right and it'll be dry on the eastside. anyone free for a day of cragging on Monday? haven't climbed in way too long so looking for mostly moderate fun.

mmmmmmmm...ouzo....mmmmmmmmmmmm

i friggin hate the winters here and at the first opportunity, i will move some place with more sun

yes, a good tongue

i love it when i say something dumb and it turns into nonsense like this. you guys crack me up

Couldn't resist this post... only cuz you know its true.

yep...wasn't so much that the skins had the problem as the base of my skis ha the problem store in bag in cool garage.

hey he's complaining not talking.

oh just be happy that you haven't been unvited

we'll have to... either that or muzzle him perfect, that should make both of you happy. he can have his beer with a straw

muffy, we'll unvite him

rob--that's the correct answer

muffy agree to let you sit at her feet and not speak. i don't think sex was part of the deal. you could be unvited

yes-- we're chicks, we control the sex

I interviewed last week and got turned down (again) the only reason being i don't have any experience in a management roll..... I am right there... so close i can taste it. so what can you do to get some experience?

sweet! maybe if pink promises to sit at your feet and not speak the whole time, we could let him join us

if you can manage your buzz you're certainly qualified for an office

buzz crafting is an important skill
