A Christian cannot be possessed, a Christian has the holy spirit in them.
I Suggest you try the prayer forum, this is not a thread for serious topics :)

I don't get it. I haven't got a single complaint about my avatar yet. What's going on? Surely somebody could at least complain about cruelty to animals (using their pictures without their consent and all) and threaten to get PETA on my case.

Now I feel left out. Nobody even cares enough about me to complain about my avatar, but THEY get all the attention. *sniff*

Is there anyone who thinks about things without being being selfish all the time? If so what would that look like?

There are plenty of people who aren't selfish all the time (i.e. people who work with people who need help but show no gratitude)

but yea, if none of us were ever selfish, I guess we'd be back to where it all started, before the fall :)

It's not the avatar that the peanut gallery wants to complain about, but they want to say something else yet are too cowardly to just be direct, up-front, and speak their mind. So, it's passive-aggressive comments about other things which allow them to vent their frustrations like a check-valve. Bless their yellow-bellied little hearts.

PS. Your avatar is awesome. Any and all complaints about it should be forwarded to /dev null

Ok. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on it. I think your example would make sense if you wrote: (i.e. people who work with people who need help and show gratitude). Maybe you wanted me to correct you just to prove a point?

No. She said it right. Jane works with people in need. Those people don't appreciate Jane or the work she does for them. Jane is not being selfish in her work. She's expecting Nothing, not even a thank you, for her time and energy.

Lynx,

Your avatar looks like cheap slippers made for little girls.



Just trying to help.

Ok, I just saw Rogue One. In my opinion its a little better than the last one (Force Awakens) but it still lacks character development. Its like they skipped it altogether. Other than that, I found it somewhat entertaining. It started out slow, built momentum, and the last 30 minutes were pretty good. I especially loved how some scenes tied in with the original star wars movie. :)

I'm glad you liked it. I've not seen it yet, and frankly don't care if I die that way :p

Wow. The moderators cleared out eleven pages of spam while I was making a sandwich.

It has to do with humility. I am PROUD to say I am the humblest man I know.





Yes, that is a joke.

I've seen it the second time the other day, Gabe. I heart it so much. Although, I had to spend some time reading fanfiction to not be depressed about the ending, all over again. xD
