You're still trying to get me to say this, but I haven't, and I won't. You have a beef with Christianity, and I'm happy to be your whipping post if that's what you want. But I hope you tire of it soon, because I'm running out of alternatives to "stfu".

if you follow my version of morality, you will be in dire straits indeed. I do have an idea what I'm supposed to strive for, but I'm not very good at it yet.

I really don't think I'm much of a looker. I've got a huge misshapen head and no upper lip. But your compliment is greatly appreciated

As for scaring me, good luck. I hang out with death metal bands. Wearing a "Satan sucks" tshirt from a local biker church. Plus they're all gay for me.

I fear nothing but spiders and mimes.

Wow that's a really profound statement - my response may not belong on this thread, but my bro & I were discussing that last night. As a somewhat religious person (God and I have an understanding) I find it incredibly difficult for me to hold up to my beliefs. To be able to do what I think I should all the time - its rather confusing and I'm rather confused (as you all know) but interesting nonetheless. Lately, I wonder if its that way for ev-1 or is it just me?

So amidst all our banter what are we supposed to do? Is it simply chalked up to "A weakness of the flesh?" I cannot believe that its that simple. I strive to be a good person and a faithful friend, co-worker, partner, father, and so on. My reality seems to say that I am, and the people around me also tell me that, but in the quiet of the night I often wonder. Its not that I do anything horrible or lead a double life - its just - Ugghh I can never really explain it in words - its just a feeling I guess.

But isn't it that feeling that keeps you trying to stay up to the mark? And what if it were easy? What difference would that make (we appear to have effected a successful threadjack here )?

That vague, unsettling notion that there's something more? That "goodness" is a real thing, but might be unattainable by any amount of purely human effort? When God starts talking to someone, that's commonly the first part of the dialogue. Talk back. Make sure your mind's open first, then ask what's going on. If you're listening, an answer will come.

Notice I didn't mention religion.

Thats an intersting point - I wonder if that was supposed to be the design all along. Then again maybe not?? Thats where my question is coming from.
