I thought that marriage was only a sexual arraignment of a specie... but you're married to a spoiled dog? Shock

I don't see you CAN'T be on this forum, these are the most AWESOME people I've ever encountered. Certainly the first people I will goto when I have problems relating to a scientific or religious nature.

Welcome to the AF!!! My home... Big Grin

Welcome to the forums C-rose.

In my family I am the only open atheist in the family, the rest are kind of 'non-believing' (atheists maybe (by definition), but then won't identify themselves as such) or... pagan/druidy as I notice on your religious views.

I don't actually understand what it is they believe that much, because taken literally I can't really find much... it seems all kind of metaphorical to me. I mean I absolutely love nature and feel good about being alive on this planet... but does that make me a Pagan/Druid? Is that all it is? Metaphor? Or is it actually more than that?

Anyway, welcome to the forums Big Grin

Saerules .... LOL ! as opposed to married with spoiled kids... oh well I neva eva said I had good grammer LOL !! I think I am gonna like it here :-)

Your grammar was fine cristalrose. Sae is just being specious. To be married with an object implies a different meaning than to be married to an object. One implies that object was or is an additional member of group marriage while the other implies an exclusive property of pairing in defining group 'marriage'. So one may be married to object with objects, implying one is pair bonded (to use anthropological terms) to another and has objects under ownership or relation to one and/or one's mate. Since married implies married to object, it is fine to leave out 'to object'. Object and objects are, for the purpose of this post, placeholder values.

I love redefinitions though.

If I say to beat someone is to violently hit them over the head repeatedly and we all agree to that definition, then I say I beat someone at Monopoly, it would seem I hit them violently over the head repeatedly at a place called Monopoly. Never mind that I merely won an apparently high strung and intense game.

Either Synackaon is TJ or he's been watching too much Amazing Atheist on YouTube and has lost the ability to generate his own thoughts / examples.

Seriously, first the Avatar comments in the shoutbox, now the beating someone at monopoly example. What's next?

Maybe it's just me who's been watching too much Tongue

Not TJ nor do I watch some "Amazing Atheist". I got the Monopoly example from "Trailer Failure #1". And I read up on Avatar. It's a pain in the ass.

Trailer failure = TJ = TheDistressedWatcher = TheAmazingAtheist.

**theVOID** · December 20, 2009 at 8:34 pm

I can't stand the "Amazing Atheist"
