It never does.
Are you actually reading my posts for comprehension?
Depends upon your definition of "comprehension." It's all about feeeeeelings to liberals and pseudo/neo-conservatives - in short, that's why they are the "useful idiots" that Lenin spoke about.
But you already knew that :)
No I haven't .. however ..
My two brothers where in the Marines ..
My father served and fought in WWII .. rec'd a purple heart, at brooze star and a silver star ..
My grandfather served and fought in WWI until he was gased
Many in my family line have served this country all the way back to the revolutionary days ..
So do I have first hand knowledge .. No I do not .. but I do have a pretty good idea of what the military and real men are like
LOL - I was too busy leading young people to the Lord to have a lot of time for teaching. That wasn't what I was called to do. And the teaching that I did do, via evangelism, was under the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
The proof's in the pudding, Ms Pawsis.
OMG - you must be reading the Federal Approved Bush Version of the Bible - the FABV. 'Course, it doesn't have a lot of big words to get confused about, and it makes sure you understand that the gubbmint is really God. But hey - after a government school education, it just feels like home, doesn't it?
Where did you read that you are supposed to be boasrtul, proud and arrogant? I must have missed those chapters.
Yeah, they're not included in the FABV. Government knows best, after all.
In the REAL Bible, it explains that we're to stand for righteousness. Jesus used some pretty strong language and a whip whilst doing so. I guess He was arrogant, too.
I knew that :)
Hey, I don't need to trust YOU on that one. He and I go way back :)
I never bragged about my accomplishments - I merely mentioned them as an example to you that assuming that someone doesn't have their act together because of their youth is a very foolish assumption. I really don't care *who* knows about what I've done - I didn't do what I did primarily for human beings anyway, I did it primarily out of love for Him. The fact that He chose to use me for His purposes is hardly bragging material - it's only something to be grateful for.
Often? Not hardly. I've been married 22 years and we don't have a single friend, including those that we've had since high school, that has married somebody in their 20's, or even has dated someone that young. We don't even have any friends that are divorced much less dumping their wives for sorority girls. When we do see a couple in a restauraunt or somewhere, and the man looks old enough to be her father, my husbands first thought is that it's a "paid escort".
So tell me, does your father pant after 20 something girls? I thought not. Is your mother a middle aged woman with a chip on her shoulder that your father would be much happier without? Would he dump her for a college girl? You know he wouldn't. You should try thinking before you spew trash such as this.
You say you don't date much, you should also try it, how will you know when you've found the "right one" if you have nothing to compare it to? You're living a Harlequin novel that Mr. Right is going to come riding along on his white horse and sweep you off your feet.
It might also help you to get over that older man fantasy you're having. I understand Larry's already married. Though "I am sure" his wife is probably a middle aged woman with an unbearable chip on her shoulder. Who knows, maybe you've got a shot after all...
I like William Shatner doing it, because it's hilarious - and a parody. And I said as much in the post you're attempting to drag over here.
Nice try though, pumpkin. Sheesh.
P.S. Last summer, my hair got so long in front!
Clue #1 - He is God; you aren't.
Clue #2 - You are no less a sinner than anyone else.
You are probably one of the most immature people regarding Scriptural knowledge that I've run across in a long time.
I should have recognized the signs. As soon as an individual opens with an obnoxious tirade about "How Great I Art", the rest is pretty predictable.
Chips on their shoulders about what exactly?
Or are we all supposed to flip our hair with the grown out bangs and talk about Aveda treatments for hard water hair and thongs and teeth whiteners and curling irons and clothing style and prom court.
Then "I am sure" we'd all fit in with your accepted posting ettiquette and the chips would magically disappear.
That's mighty impressive! Would you be at liberty to tell us the general area where he served?
