What's this "enjoyment" in the holidays you all speak of? Dysfunctional family gatherings, shopping, running around? I really think we need to return to the quiet way. Kind of defeats the purpose of...

"we need to have an adult faith, not a peasant miracle based faith."

I prefer the peasant faith to be honest -I like my life simple. Religion is about how you act and that's what people should...

Medicinal?.....the Chinese believe so. Certain animal parts are supposed to have certain medicinal properties. Also, notice that they'd rather cut the paws off of a "live" bear rather than a dead one...

This is not mine but someone asked me to spread it, here goes......

Please read this! yes all of it
I almost cried reading this but sadly it's happening right now and it must be stopped!!!!!

"Ignorance (which has nothing to do with being stupid btw) is the constant obstacle to the advancement of mankind. " -D.Ross

Really?

I tend to think that humans know da.mn well what the...

I don't think anyone is "spouting off," so be fair. I'm simply noticing the non-religious "I'm too smart for religion" people who "spout off" (with much bitterness and rudeness mind you) about how...

"It's also interesting how people will attach a new label to an event such as Christmas and call it a pre-christian celebration when they have no attachment to that ancient culture and no continuity...

I don't think non-religious people are consciously following a pre-Christian tradition. I think they give gifts simply because it's just the thing to do at this time of year (and I think in our...

Les Paul prices are insane (have been for a while now). I bought an 87' Custom Sunburst LP back in 89' right before the prices went sky high. Paid about a grand and change for it. Same guitar now is...

What in the world?

Did this guy devise his own "squirrel" system or something? He must freak out his neighbors. No-Know....please go back to the renaissance faire and return that sword. I don't...

I'm Christian and I don't really care myself....I'm just throwing it out that's all. Just being goofy I guess.

Christians celebrate Christ's birthday on Christmas day-that's enough for me. We all...

I know that Santa seems harmless but if you think about it he has the characteristics of a pagan idol (who is replacing God in Christmas). And I thought worship of false idols was wrong :rolleyes:

"i dont see humans as "better" than animals"

Just for the record....neither do I. In fact, we're worse.

"There is plenty of room for all of gods creatures. Right next to the mash potatoes."

Don't think that comment will lead to any productive discussion. But, it's an example of how extremism on one...

When it comes to not eating animals there are so many interpretations and ideas of which living things should be eaten and which should not. It's hard to be on the same page with anyone you discuss...

Chan Siu Lum....sorry. Thought you were yet another anonymous troll who wanted them to play guessing games.

Lama Pai Sifu....thank you for the info.

Chan Siu Lum,

Youre new here (8 posts), but in my time on this forum I can tell you that your'e maybe the third or fourth person who has anonymously antagonized CTS's students on this site. I'm...

Every living being eats something that was once alive.

Eating animals does not have to equal animal abuse or unethical treatment. Unfortunately, in reality, it usually does. An animal can live a...

"I would follow Christ if not for Christians" -Ghandi

It worked this time I guess. If he had backed up another 2 feet that car making the turn would have hit him. It wasn't going too fast but it could have messed up his knee or knocked him down-enough...

Slander-a malicious, false, and defamatory satement or report.

So....did that change anything?

Why would you jump into a discussion in the first place just to repeat something slanderous if you have absolutely no clue whether it's true or not.

"the word on the street?" what does that mean...

I'd say look for an opening.....and run like hell through it. When youre a few blocks away turn around to see if they're following you. If not then you've made it. Go to sleep and wake up the next...

I have to appoligise. Don't take me all too seriously because that's not my intended tone. I'm being half serious and half trying to be funny. Thought this thread started off kind of silly and I'm...

And by the way, Metallica hasn't been good since before you were born so do me a favor and if you want to post a band post Led Zeppelin or shut the f--k up.
