Good response, but my point is still valid. What ARE some of the effects? remember about half a century ago a leading psychologist said homosexuals were rapists unable to control there sexdrive and may strike at anytime, (while I am waiting for a reply I'll look up who said that, and other anachronisms)

While we're at it, everybody check out the Skeptics Annotated Bible, if you haven't already:  http://skepticsannotatedbible.com/
Though It's a well thought out and well meaning piece, do these people have any husiness doing this? Do creationists make a annotated "Origin of Specis"? or "A brief history of time" or issues of Scientific American?

All is normal, nothing is normal. But before we get all zen, what about those who practise things who most still consider abnormal, such as the "Man-boy love" movement aka paedophiles. And before you get all "Totally different, paedophilias is illegal" consider that sodomy is still illegal in some states and a few countries, not to mention the fact it was almost universally true a one or two generations ago. If you had asked almost any one back then if they thought it would ever be legal, they would be grossed out and give you the same answers you give now against paedophiles. I am not saying its right I am just saying, think about your answers

Well David did get a guy killed just so he could have his wife. A common king prerogative, but what makes the old testament God kind of different is that he was higher even then kings, even a king was under the law, In almost all recorded cultures from that time, kings WERE Gods. The idea of something being higher then a kings was one of the many steps that inspired modern democracy. One thing that helped it spread though western culture was holy text that agreed with a fundamental principle of democracy, all are under the law.

Even if it is a choice, does it really matter when it comes to treating all human beings as equals, allowing consenting adults to live their lives as they see fit? 
Exactimo Becky, it's your life, you live it, sexuality is not a moral issue.

Its a symbol, made in rememberance of what christians believe be the supreme sacrafice, a diety entering human form to die for all humnity. thats a pretty special thing. wether its "REALLY" jesus's body or not is a none  issue to me.

I am a Christian. I condone gay marriage because I condone freedom of others. I'm not going to make gays miserable (like The WCBC, which is evil)
God loves everyone. He even sent His Son to set an example for us.
...or did you skip that part of the Bible?
Let people live their own lives.
That is basically what I think as well,  allowing people to live their own lives is fine with me. As long as you follow the golden rule, found in thousands of ethical codes, you are a morel person. Whether gayness is "choice" or not I'll leave to the scientists, but even if its not genetic, it may be no more of choice then a mental illness, ( though it isn't one, I am not implying that)
I like to think of my self as somewhat christian, that is, it is the religion I most identify with, but that may be just my upbringing.

And "Christianity" spells "Toilet Duck"?

Freaky.

Religion is a creation of human nature to put a human face on the universe, You can't plead with a force of nature but you can plead with a god. The weather follows patterns but can also vary wildly, it is "capricious" and what can also do that? People. and people can try to influence other people., even ones much more powerful then them. and what are gods, really powerful beings, a fancy word for people

I like how both makes me laugh and think at the same time, while still having some ripping good action.

When I read this story I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. It's just so darn funny. But what do you think of it? I can't comment anymore, its just caracking me up.

I know, we we get so into the art, or the music, or whatever we are working on, that our brain thinks " Save files?! We don't need no stinking save files!" Then God, the great pumpkin, or maybe the CPU gremlins, say "Heh, heh, Yes you do," and crash the whole darn thing, Curse, You Great Pumpkin!!!!, But I digress.

Thanks all, I'll work on her figure and hope to get some kind of workover, soon.
thanks all, any more critics on the stance, she is emnt to be standing on some stairs with one foot on the next step, to give her a dynamic, unbalanced look.
thabks all, and any more critiques are of course welcome

HAs anyone seen Plan 9 from outer space?Oh gods, that was bad...but you got to love it.
A movie I Hate, is watership down. The book was amazing, and beutiful and poetic. The book took all the plot and mythology and just made it into a well done technacly but weary plot, with inappropriate humour and a way over simplified storyline. They took fivers growth from weird runt to visionary leader and made him just weird runt.

This pic I drew in paint after sketching it out on paper,
she was born and grew up on ol' Luna but left when the neutrality got to her, prone to mood swings and extreme opinions, she has rejected the zen based society of her home-world. she still has the stretched out look the lunarites are known for, but without their calm grace.
So what you all think? do I convey what the above statement in the picture, or is the description bogus?
Any Criticism or paintovers are welcome.

When I was younger I thought Sandra Bullick was the hottest thing on two legs. I also admired the fact that she was the only actress in hollywood who was willing to snort on camara. it amazing what can affect a pre-puberty 15teen y/o
