The other questions were meant to be more general and not intended to be addressed to you specifically. It was because of what JSM brought up about Paul.
That's General Leo. He could be my friend if he weren't my enemy.

Unless you believe, as most Christians do, that He is Jehovah of the Old Testament.

And if you believe that, then you believe in contradictory Gods, or at least a God who is not the same "yesterday, today, and forever". I'm honestly perplexed that you'd think that I'd find your little rejoinder here convincing.

But then, you and I are different, in that I follow people based on the wisdom of their teachings, while you choose some other heuristic, such as their power, or whether you were indoctrinated to follow a certain person when you were a child.

Oh boy. The Book of Abraham is a "hoax", but the Book of Mormon is real? Cough.

Paul,
Gazelam, YOU think what I'm saying is wrong. Do you know my heart? Do you search the deepness therein? Are you God?

Paul O


HAH! No Paul, I'm not God, but I do have a fair view of his opinion on certain matters. Your screwing up, and I'm hoping that I can shoot you a little perspective and hopefully reign you in. Take a nice long walk tommorow and try to review your life as an outsider looking in who cares about you.

I can be callous, I know. I do care about you. And just for you heres an "I love you". And I'd love you more if you'd stop tellign people its ok to masturbate and stop your dumbass apostacy kick.

Porter,
Hell, how about you, Gazelam, Will and Danny ambush me in a back alley inbetween the kingdoms and see if the four of you can kick my apostate ass, shall we?


What gives you the impression that I want to kick your ass? Your more of a comedic character than a villian. When your not acting like a jackass I actually like you.
It woudl be really great if you'd stop attacking sacred things though. It hurts when you do that, and I feel really bad for you.

Gaz, you base your anti wanking advice on what?

Medical research?

Your own research?

NO. You based it on something some old guilt riddin wanker wrote, namely Boyd K. Packer.

And may I inquire into his research? or did he just palm the idea?

Porter,
Gazzy, why don't tell our studio audience what kind of lifestyle you lived for a time in your life?

Before you start throwing what you think are stones, look down pal, they are boomerangs and they come back and hit you.


What lifestyle would that be? Also I have never understood the attitude that if someone has done something wrong they forfeit the right to say its wrong anymore. that's idiotic thinking.

Just thought I'd toss you in with the rest of the pious heap.

Mormonism makes bcspace mean.

Sorry little boy, I already know that santa and the easter bunny are fairy tales. Same goes for all of the other BS that Smith pulled out of his ass and claimed it came from God. Then again perhaps the mouth of god is the anus of Joseph..

A little chat a few years ago with you... and you revealed that you "fell away from the goshspell for a time and did some very unsavory things.."
