Sorry to burst your bubble again, but running a search of "gambling" in the Bible, returns not one refrence. Next you'll tell me I'm not a Christian. I assure you that I am. I'm not delusional, and I happily live in VA, which, last I checked, was on the east coast. Hell, I'm less than 20 minutes from the ocean, and that's in traffic.

As to being disgusted with Vegas...I don't like the way the women take themselves for granted, however, it is THEIR choice to do so. Should they want to be whores, I can pray for them, but not much else I can do.

As to the ripping the moral fabric comment...sheesh...stop listening to Hannity and Rush, and get your own opinion. Become a TRUE conservative, rather than a moron following the money. When you realize that those two are no better than the party they're whoring for, nor are they any better than the Air America crowd, you will discover that there is a whole lot of options out there for you.

Naa, I've read it, and checked the refrence materials in the back of mine in the past as it relates to the very issues we're talking about. I also ran a seach on www.bible.com today, just to confirm what I had already looked for.

meh, I don't like to gamble because I never win and paying for something I can get for free with a little effort and an emotional investment (don't get your panties in a twist, I know you have no idea what that is) is silly. You go on about that time you where body boarding on the kids beach and got pulled out by the big scary 'rip tide' though. It's amusing.

You know, I may just turn my filter back on so that I never have to read any of your drivel again.

I have enough faith in capitalism, that anything the moral populace is worried about will be delt with. Vegas is not the hot bed of immorality, Washington D.C. is. When you deal with that, and understand that you're now playing with the big boys, you're snide comments about where I live, mean nothing. You're perceived attack on me, looks like the same sort of attacks that the extremist left have been trying to do for years.

You talk of Rush being an idol of yours? I'm sorry, you said "hero". I was listening live when Rush admitted being the water boy for the Republican party. True conservatives they are. For the most part they are no different than the Democrats they attempt to deamonize. They are not intellectually honest, nor are they interested in the Constitution of the United States. As humans, I'm sure they're great people, I haven't met them, so I can't say either way, but they are not conservatives as they claim. These statements also fit for Rush and Hannity.

Since you're also so worried about my language skills, I assure you that I have no difficulty speaking the proper Queen's English, though typing it is off, as I'm quite sure Nobby will tell you (just can't be bothered to put the extra "u"s in there). Since you seem to think that Virgina Beach is a hotbed of ghetto activity, I invite you to come visit, and partake in our amazing beachfront, and enjoy some dolphin watching, or feel free to take in the history, considering we have Ft. Monroe, and Ft. Wool, both forts that stood watch during the Civil War, then there is the historic lighthouse at Ft. Story. If war isn't your thing, please feel free to walk the paths of First Landing State Park, or you can check out the Virginia Aquarium, Air and Space Museum, Living Museum, Nauticus, and various memorials strewn about the Hampton Roads area. There is more culture and history here than you're likely to find in most of the rest of the country,and many places combined. I haven't even mentioned anthing north of Hampton yet either, should I continue with Williamsburg, Yorktown, Jamestown, the opera houses, art museums, or any other areas within an hour drive that would make any other states "history" look mundane?

Next time you'd like to belittle an area, at least make sure that you know what the **** you're talking about.

Not to be anti-christian, because I'm not, I think the religion has many good qualities, but it's sad when something as basic as whether or not it's wrong to do something as simple as have sex requires disection and discussion. If the guy that defines your beliefs never gave a sweeping statement on a subject maybe he didn't have an opinion concerning the subject he was willing to share. And if he wasn't willing to share maybe it's a bit wrong to try to put words in his mouth?

Edit: Then again, you guys aren't supposed to kill and that gets justified for all sorts of retarded reasons, so who the fUck know?

I agree with you 100%, however, because things have been translated differently due to dialects, you end up with multiple beliefs based on what translation that you're reading.

That's why I make the attempt to understand what was said exactly, and what that means. Things are a little different when you're reading Hebrew than they are when you're reading modern English.

Greek is a facinating language, where in most cases that I've seen, what is said or written means exactly what is put down or said. That comma is there for a reason, and denotes that it is a continuation.

Anyway, though, back on topic. That's a nice avitard.
