"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

You thought you were quite the player, didn't you? But in the end it was you who got played. Now who's sorry?

Awww come on she was all right in As Good As It Gets.
Although I'm highly biased because Jack Nicholson movie has Jack Nicholson being Jack Nicholsony in it.

CIJS: That is the most utterly pathetically self-absorbed thing I have ever heard. No, it goes beyond that. I don't even think there is a word for it. You're offended and upset because our hamster is nocturnal? Have you any idea how utterly crazy that is? You expect evolution to retroactively alter the whole genetic makeup of a species based on your personal preferences?

Thank you
It's only fair we get a look at the hamster in question! She's a winter white. She is very seriously nocturnal. Except for the first day we got her, we've barely seen her. But as soon as we get into bed, we hear her going mental in her wheel!
It's hard to get a decent picture of her. (Yeah, she's not white. It's complicated, hehe. We found out that most Winter Whites are most likely hybrids with Campbells. We did previously have two WWs which were completely white. We now think they were the "pearl" variety, rather than the norm.)

She prefers the opposite-- let someone else make the decisions so that she can complain if things don't go as hoped. The worst was when she needed help and would not make decisions because she was almost paralyzed by that fear. And by "needed help" I'm referring to the time when she suffered a bad contusion from a fall and waved off offers of help until I got home and she was nearly delirious from the pain. Also by "needed help" was the time she was having a FUCKING HEART ATTACK and thought that dropping hints and then waving off my concern was the proper course of action.
Ok, that sounds just a smidge more serious than what I'm dealing with...

No, no, its just the older version of what you're workin with.
Axiety is anxiety is anxiety at any age.. Course, thats not your fault or responsibility!
Best thing to do, in my opinion, is just do what makes her the most comfortable. And bite your cheek.  Or don't offer! Ha.

Heh The french got it all wrong..again. :rollseyez:
If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!
Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite.
Dead wrong. The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.
Quote:Some people deserve hell.
I say again: No exceptions. Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it. As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.
