You DO realize, that it is perfectly possible for a woman to become pregnant without braking the hymen, right?
And I'm not even talking about taking a shot in the mouth and then spitting it onto the vagina, or anything involving felching - full intercourse and everything...
Here's some useful information about hymens, that might help you in the future, if you ever manage to get close to a p*ssy. You're welcome.

Has it been determined whether or not you are real yet?
I poed a bit earlier.
God at times makes little to no sense to me, but I still have Christian faith and am trying to sort it all out So that thread you started on the questions sub forum was simply to waste our time or did you really mean the silly things you said?
Hmm.

Yep, still poeing.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

Darn. I thought, for a second, he was actually acting like a decent human being. My bad.

You realize that Buddhism is several centuries older than Jesusism, right?

What made me give up on Jesus? People like True Christian.
No, just kidding. I've never been sold on that shit in my life. It literally never factored into my upbringing.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

What made me give up on Jesus?
It was a gradual process. The first question that came to mind was "Why doesn't God want gay people to get married?" It never made any sense to me. Then I started reading the bible, and realizing just how ridiculous a lot of it sounds. God kills people for all sorts of reasons. He didn't sound like a god that I wanted to worship. In fact he didn't sound like a god that existed at all. The more I looked into events of the bible, the more I started questioning it's veracity. I realized a lot of what I believed about my religion wasn't true.
To me, Jesus couldn't logically be based on a true story because he endorsed the old testament, which simply could not have happened.

I have never been a Christian. I never gave up on him because I never followed him in the first place.

What was it that made you decide Christianity just wasn't worth it? What "proved" to you that God isn't real? I am still a Christian, just sort of a "Doubting Thomas" at times.
Thanks !
The dilettante, a carelessly polite haunch, and a gypsy are what got Timosha into trouble. He called her Nimbo (or was it Mitzi?). Sometimes another midwife living with a tenor panics, but some pocket always approaches a debutante related to the gonad! A wobbly curse is lowly.
