Really? Branson seems okay, maybe it is what I am used to?
How is Ozark in your opinion?
Basically, everywhere in Missouri that isn't in one of the two major cities, or perhaps parts of Columbia, scares me. I do like the roads between here and KCMO, when I go up there, every other weekend or so. Definite motorcycle country, between here and there.

I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.
