Just saw Lethbridge tied it :)

I bet against Portland for once. Only 100 though.

I almost bet against portland, decided against it and currently I am liking that decision haha.

RayP put over 20,000 on lethbridge and he had 16,500 on red deer (they won). He had a couple huge bets tonight and looks like he may win both.

I wonder how much vcash id have if I only bet on the Knights, all-in every time for their 21 game win streak.
 
I pop in every now and then. I unsubscribed so I only go when I think about it, maybe once or twice a month.
IF you aren't questioning it, then you are using the freedom of choice God gave us.

pfft. Sorry man. BUt think about it. Let that chew on your brain for a while. That is just a mind trip. Don't think about it.

This was a huge issue for me when I was a teen. After my cousin committed suicide I questioned a lot of things. I questioned even more when I lost my Dad at 17.

Nothing Wrong with Questions. Just be prepared for the impact of the answers.

Wow that's really hardcore, I believed in it until I took world religions and then I started questioning how could all these hundred something religions all be right. the morals of the religion are fine, it's just when they start talking about different gods, resurrecting people, angels and all that other fairy tale stuff is what I don't believe in at all.

My problem is with some all powerful being giveing two ***** about what I do on a day to day basis.

Yeah I can't stand /r/atheism

it's like "we can bash anything and everything about religion because we're smart, if you say anything otherwise you're some dumb religious fool and we'll ridicule you"
Sounds like they are ready for a good dose of CharlioLemieux! :naughty:

Serious I'll go sign up just for S&G's.

If you think I can take a BUrke thread straght sideways...hahaha
It's best to just keep these things to yourself, particularly your religious beliefs (or lack thereof) and personal politics.

I made the mistake twice, actually.

One started when I refused to eat meat at a family gathering, since you know, I am a vegetarian. I cited this reason multiple times. It turned political when I was asked "why" and stated that I don't view animals as any different than human-beings, and so would not like to participate or be a part of their commercial slaughter.

The second started when we were talking about Hurricane Katrina, and my aunt said something like, "God will take care of them". And then it made me think of the Problem of Evil: If God is omnipotent, beneficent, and omni-present, then why does evil and suffering occurring and on such a frequent basis? I basically stated this...and it did not turn out so well.

It's not worth it to argue your personal philosophies amongst others, particularly when it can harm relationships and deeply offend the other person. Being "right" isn't worth it.
This girl told me she was a vegan.
I'm like: "What's a vegan?"
"It's like a vegetarian but I don't eat dairy."
"So no milk?"
"No"
"No Eggs?" (Hey they are in the Dairy section right!)
"No"
"Too bad. Chicken fetus is good."

She either had to laugh or puke. Thank god(or who ever) she laughed.

Arguing about it is usually a waste of time, but there is nothing wrong with discussing your views with open-minded people.
Finding open minds is the hardest. So many people are so set in their beliefs.

Yeah I try to never bring politics or religion up in conversation unless I'm specifically asked about them, even then I still try to not go deeply into it.
Smart. I should just delete this post. But I won't. I am at that age where "I shouldn't say that" becomes "Aww hell lets see what happens.."

That's what it comes down to. And like you said- people hold onto their philosophies so deeply that it only leads to intense arguments, pretty much every time. It's near impossible to have a civil conversation about it.
You see those guys set themselves on fire?

Monks pouring gas on themselves lighting it up and sitting in the middle ofthe street.
100% agree with that.
Flexibilty of mind.

Just look to the States if you want to see the LOSS of that flexibilty in action.

They don't even care about hte issues anymore.

There is what 4 or 5 "swing states" out of 50?


OK DOne philisophising for tonight.

Go have a beer every body. :cheers:

I don't know what is worse. That you actually lost them....
