Then you believe God makes things for purposes.

Are you drunk this morning? Or is it evening where you are?

Just a little pre-Christmas workout with the Sawzall blades.

He gets giddy over a heaven where all the problems with identity go away, and we get absorbed into some godness, because then he can ask, why even bother?

Muslims and converts are not races because they are not distinguished by physical characteristics, again unless you wish to change the definition. Jews - maybe.

A varietiy of human beings distinguished by physical traits such as hair, eyes, skin color, body shape, etc.: traditionally, the three primary divisions are Caucasoid, Negroid, and Mongoloid, although many subdivisions of these are also called races. Blood types an genetic code patterns, all their inherited characteristics which are unique to their isolated breeding population distinguish races. Language and custom do not.

But that is not a race, unless you wish to redefine the word.

I am not deracisting him. Cockneys are not a race, as Missourians are not. To say that I am racist against Missourians is to say that I am racist asgainst the race that most Missourians are. Back that into the race of most cockneys and you have what he really said.

To be racist against cockneys is like being racist against Missourians. You are racist against the predominant race of cockneys.

Maybe so, but I meant a compliment. It’s an honor to be imitated by someone, even if only for an attribute I was born with, and did not earn. My only complaint is that some of them are so good at their craft that I feel jealous.

Yeah I believe it can happen that way. I'd prefer less redundancy and more clever lines, but you've caught glympse of a path I might have taken, but for fortune.

Alright, if it's in a book or a movie, then its ok to use anywhere, unquoted, unreferenced, uncapitalized and uncouth?

No, but I'll try it. They might come clearer babblefished via Arabic. Yes, you said that in your most recent stupor, but on 29-Oct-05/7:08 PM when you were 26 and slightly drunk, I assumed you implied the opposite. And being drunk myself, which is the only way to be when answering such guff, I fixated on it. Silly me.

Let me guess. You were the transvestite.

Oh now I get it, silly me. A man who says things I don't understand is most likely smarter than I am. May I ask how every Spanish-speaking man seems so smart?
replying on I don't rhyme enough, eh? by Niphredil 29 Oct 2005, 12:34 PM
I am astonishingly smart. I always like to start with your suggestion for an answer because you think you have the perfect rebuttal. Makes it more interesting, don't you think? But I'll be honest and say that some men seem smarter than I am in certain areas. I think this because their perceptions in those areas seem better than mine. But the same man can be very silly, to the point of ridiculous, in most other areas. If I knew I was smarter in all areas there would be no point, other than for sex, to talk with him. Frankly, few men stimulate me in conversation.

The metaphor works pretty well until the last two lines.
"freely" should be a noun form, I think.
"we'd" seems grammetically bad. Maybe "we"

Now, really, how can a crazy person become uncrazy by trying? Seems to me that someone so crazy that he thinks defecating is the most logical thing he has done today, (and maybe it is) should lie prostrate before God and plead for salvation.

Smarter, but I've given up looking.
