I stopped reading your post here. What you're saying can't possibly increase in it's wisdom from this point on. This hits it right on the head- there is nothing other than arrogance in the rantings of those people. Claiming to know who/what God/the gods hate? How arrogant to think that they know the mind of God! We can't even know the minds of mortals!! How can we possibly comprehend the mind of God? I always knew I liked you, CDN!!

It's in the section about feminism.

Thank you, one and all. You have proven that this forum is truly the home of some of the finest people on the web.
Really? We're not completely uncouth? I agree, Steve. That's why I have over 4000 posts here- way more than any other board I have ever been on- even Iron Maiden's! And anyone who knows me knows that I'm a huge Maiden fan!

I was thinking the same thing!! What a great way to take a personal interest in your synagogue.

I've never seen a construction worker wearing a kilt. I've never seen a truck mechanic or a coal miner wearing a kilt. I only see men with clean jobs, or playing bagpipes, wearing kilts. Kilts are for men in the palace, not for John the Baptist type men ... real men!
I thought I was done with this... and then I read this and just about spit coffee all over my keyboard. This picture:

was right by this quote! And then I thought about all the Highland warriors, like Rob Roy for example, who look even prettier than this biker guy! If I ever run across the guy who wrote this and he's wearing anything other than denim, leather and chains, or is not dressed like Davey Crocket, I am going to kick his sissyfied soft clothing wearing butt so hard that it'll turn itself inside out and come out his mouth! 
(Oh yeah- and alcohol is also a sin... so I'm sitting here listening to Iron Maiden, having a nice dram of a Speyside... but I'm in my pijammas... so I'm not kilted- yet. I will be soon, though. I'm going to hell...) Is it a sin to own cats? I sure hope so- 'cause I have three of the little blighters!

That is exactly what's done. The scroll is now finished and in use. It's about 3 feet tall, and about 50 feet long unrolled. Rolled up on 2 rolls about 6 inches in diameter.
We now return you to your originally scheduled thread.

My head hurts! I cannot stand white on black it just takes too much effort to read.
On the contents, I feel sorry for him. To spend that much time and effort just seems such a waste. Especially when he gets to heaven and sees even god wearing a kilt.

Right here; http://www.dividedbytruth.org/women_pants.htm
He has a tirade about lots of stuff!
And his site isn't new or anything, I recall this same topic being discussed 4 or 5 years back...

I shall limit myself to only one post about this person of narrow-mindedness:
"It's better to laugh with the sinners than to cry with the saints;
The sinners are much more fun! Only the good die young!"
Kindly read the last line of my signature.
I've found that most relationships work best when no one wears pants.
