I know you don't like handshakes 2V, but it just seems so much less stressful to me!

Wow.. some people really do remember everything.

Photographic memory. A blessing and a curse

I hope you didn't take that the wrong way, it wasn't intended as a dig.

'tis cool mx....but I totally forgot about that until you mentioned it. I always felt that my crappy memory was a blessing in disguise. :-)

I LOLed at "a kick to evolution's balls"! And I'm glad that you guys are on the same page.

It's funny about the comfort knowing you're going somewhere when you die thing, because I'm comforted just knowing that I was lucky enough to have this life and that I'll be slipping back into the black nothingness, and leaving (hopefully) good memories for my family. I just hope to leave a legacy of being a good mom/wife and raising kickass kids who do something great. Or who are just good people who don't do anything terrible.

This is where I'm at. Took a while to get there, but now the idea of something always watching, always judging, always... evaluating - - and then the possibility that all the times you try to do good could still add up to nada and you could forever be exiled or burn in hell or whatever - - somehow nothingness is hugely easier to swallow.

For me, it's the exact opposite. The idea that God is always there for me, watching over me, giving me strength, giving me peace.....knowing that I'm never alone and if I call His name, He's there for me.... it's very comforting.

Saw this and thought of this thread. Was entitled: Me when people post bible passages on Facebook.

I love you for this, in a totally non gay way.
