i get the pushing your religion thing
if you thought you knew how to save the lives of everyone and they just wouldnt listen to you it would be very frustrating
unfortunetaly not everyone agrees with their lives needing "saved"

i try to help my alcoholic friend not drink, is that really much different?

regardless a couple of mormon chicks dropped off a pamphlet a few days ago, i invited them in for a beer and a rip, didnt take me up on it though, damn ungrateful bitches

That's where it gets sticky. Does that mean a woman who has a miscarriage can be charged with manslaughter? Abuse of a child for going on a roller coaster while pregnant?

Laws are very literal and most morons don't seem to understand it.

Also, as I understand, the mormon afterlife heirarchy is very different from standard judeo-christianic beliefs, and allows for a post-life recantation of your sins for when you meet Jesus (And thus only the people who still reject Jesus after it all are damned). Is that correct? So his proclamation means he's probably just a type of evangelical nutjob who happens to like the word Mormon.

And yes, Prop 8 is the biggest piece of douchebaggery I've seen for a while, and I'm weirded out by the insane support coming from the mormon church.


Seriously, when did the idea of getting to vote to stop someone from marrying another consenting adult become OK in this country, especially CA? I see the whole matter as fundamentally unconstitutional.

:bowdown:

I had some old guy come up to petition for a "Yes on Prop 8". I told him to get off my lawn. I think there's irony somewhere in that h:

Because it is, it's that whole separate but equal thing again. I have some notes from my Laws and the Gender class from last year, I'll shoot you some precedent cases about this later.

I'm hoping the whole darwin thing will take care of this... It so far hasn't.

Damn the breeding of stupid people.

Yeah, Mormons have a different belief in the afterlife than the typical Christian's view of Heaven and Hell. We believe in three "heavens" if you will. If you want details go to:

http://scriptures.lds.org/en/dc/76/75#75

Scroll down and read versus:

51-70 - Celestial - Best
71-80 - Terrestrial - Better
81-86 - Telestial - Good

To give cliffs, Celestial are those who accepted Christ in this life. If they didn't have the opportunity they accept him in the next life. Terrestrial are good people, had the opportunity to accept but didn't until the next life. Your average Joe probably fits into this category. Telestial are those who don't accept Christ, even in the next life when they know the truth but still refuse it. Stubborn bastards and really nasty folk will likely be here. There are lots of details of course. Only God can judge so don't ask me where Hitler's going or some goofy question like that.
