actually, swine flu is transmitted person to person, not through pork products. or so the CDC says.

but it would be amusing if you could get it from eating or being around pork, and/or only pork-eating people end up getting it.

i've been telling people for years, dont eat pork! it's unclean! they eat dead rotten things! but people dont listen....i've had to excuse myself from way too many bbqs and family gatherings at friends' houses because they were cooking pork. stuff makes me wanna vomit, it's as close to test-tube meat as it gets.

pork is nasty shit. so is shellfish. jews were really ahead of their time.

i bet mormons eat lots and lots of pork. you are what you eat afterall.....

Nothing beats the smell of fresh bacon in the morning, cooking on the stove.

I wish I could abstain from pork, seriously. But ham and bacon are mmmm. And normally I prefer beef ribs (being a texan and all) but if there aint anything else, Ill take pork.

Those little shit heads are so ugly, the least we can do is kill them.

I can't eat shellfish any more, once I realized that they were just big bugs. The only exception I make to this is crab.

i too love to cook bits of my local precinct in the morning. i hate the kind of bacon they make out of actual pigs (the animal) tho.

yea castle i feel ya. while at my respective TBS which was located in the south, i loved my BBQ pork. i have since abstained from all pork. g-d told me to :-P

not only are shellfish big bugs, but they eat stuff that dies and sinks to the bottom (lobster) or rots and floats around (shrimp). as is, i'm weirded out by all the nasty diseases floating around in raw supermarket meat. pork and Shellfish adds a whole other dimension of uncertainty about all sorts of bacteria, viruses and parasites.

i like my lamb. theres nothing cleaner or more innocent than lamb. i mean, they dont even factory-farm them because the demand is so low, so by default most lamb is grass-fed and antibiotic-free. then theres that lovely venison...i shoot my one deer a year and savor the wonderful meat all year long. unfortunately, venison is not kosher (unless you are able to chase it, pin it down for enough time and cut it's throat, which in most cases results in dead human, not dead deer). i dont give a fuck though, venison is too good to care about kashrut laws.

Just a quick announcement

If i do in fact contract the Swine Flu I will be attending as many local Mormon church gatherings as I can find

and insist on hugging everyone.

I hope you're joking. How can you harbor so much hate for people you have never met based on a religious stereotype? How many mormons have you met, exactly? How did they offend you?

i'm not femmefatal, but i'll answer your question as if you were asking me.

because they tried to convert me. because they are stupid and lack free thought. because they believe what can be considered an outright lie, a fallacy, through pure objective logic. because of the september 11 slaughter (i'm not talking about 2001). because of polygamy. because they take over entire communities and harass and shun everyone who doesn't convert out of the community. because they push their moral agenda on everyone else. because they are hypocrites. because i have yet to see any mormon do anything beneficial to society as a whole.

i lived in utah for a number of years, so i've met many many mormons.

if i were to believe that joe smith is a prophet i might as well believe i am a prophet and my dog heshie is a saint.

Not sure if your new here but I was imprisoned and tortured by Mormons.

and now that I think about it, every Mormon I have ever met was a bit of a stuck up bitch (or son of a bitch respectively).

so how about I just say this... Regardless of faith, race or general lifestyle choices, If I have to die in my prime I will take as many self righteous fucktards as I can down with me. Even if it is just on principal.

I have met many non religous people who have tried to convert people out of their religion or convince them that religion is just merely a cult, but I wouldnt want to see all these people dead. They just firmly believe that people are better off without religion, but I wouldnt persecute them becuase of their beliefs. That is any awlful way to think.

O'RLY?

Let me ask you this....If I were responsible for the single most jarring experience of your life, don't you think it would be appropriate for you to hate me?... If I convinced your family that I would take care of you and then came into your home and dragged you against your will to a deplorable prison in a third world country and treated you with less respect then I would a sewer rat, beat you up on a regular basis and forced you to endure systematic torment.... might you even want me dead?

If it was part of my religious beliefs to treat other people this way, there in convincing myself that what I was doing to you and countless other innocent children was justifiable by my own personal governing "god", would you be tempted to judge that religion as a whole?

Furthermore, If every other person you met who adhered to that lifestyle was a complete and utter asshole, just like me, the one you really hate, wouldn't you be willing to see them all lying in a mass grave somewhere?....

no?... really?..... okay okay well either that's just my sick sense of HUMOR or the program REALLY fucked with my head.

:roflmao:

Seriously that was just a joke... If I got the swine flu I would go to the hospital and probably be fine in a few days.

I was robbed and beaten by someone claiming to be a Christian. Does that make every other Christian in the world just as bad as the one who beat and robbed me?

I'm surprised you don't seem to understand this simple idea. You can't generalize and hate people you've never met, just because they share the same religion as someone who harmed you. It's prejudice, plain and simple and there is no excuse for it.

I am personally a free man who is not controlled or governed by a set definition of what my peers want me to be. I do not have to conform to a set standard of belief's that somebody else thought was good for them. Churches have doctrines that it's members have to conform to. As in all good cults you are told what to believe and live by their definition of right and wrong.

Thank you for that. It may just be the way I have always been, but its very hard for me to just blindly accept illogical concepts on behalf of being part of a group. Id much rather make up my own mind, based on my own experience and what feels morally right.
It surprises me how gullible people can be.

You know Femanon you are absolutely correct. Our "Guest" that we have been talking to argues that it is human nature to be around people with like mind and beliefs. So I guess that you, Castle, and myself must have our own cult now :roflmao:

Ok... So now that I have regained composure here. I personally believe hate groups sprung up due to religious beliefs. If you are not of them them you are a godless infidel. Take the fighting over the holy land Israel and Pakistan have fought many years due to a difference of belief in religion.

And one last note, the churches are money making businesses so it's a competition much like Burger King vs McDonalds.

it's a little different. a better analogy would be "I was robbed and beaten by every person i have every met who claimed to be a christian. does that make every other christian in the world just as bad as the ones who beat and robbed me?" probably. yes.

If every cow i ever saw was able to give milk, i would assume that every cow in the world is able to give milk. there are some exceptions, such as young, old, and sick cows, but they represent a small minority, they are the exception not the norm. what use is a living cow that doesn't give milk anyway? likewise a good mormon by kantian ethical standards is a useless mormon to the LDS church. therefore, they are a minority.

Well tell that to Osama Bin Laden, or Adolph Hitler, or Sadam Hussan or even George Bush. it may not be right, however that's the way the world is.

Are there any perfect religions, why do people of different religions down and bash upon each other. Why can they not live in harmony. It is a concept that has been forced into their minds (brainwashed) that their way is the only way.

Take Femanon, Castle, and myself... I know we are of different belief's, but we don't choose to battle with each other over our personal opinions we don't try to push our beliefs down each other's throats.

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly known as the LDS Church, or the Mormon Church) reported 13,508,509 members on record in the April 2008 General Conference.

None of you have met enough Mormons to judge 13 million people.
