I would have to pray about it, if I had a moment to do so. It is not for me to decide. Only He knows what is in the heart of those in attendance. I would let Him guide me.

I wipe my hands on my person when cooking. If I don't wear an apron, I end up with hand prints on my backside.

Logicboy03: As long as you believe that I hate women.

I never said you hate women. I don't believe that for a second. Nothing I say at this point is going to make a difference. I will apologize again. If you thought I meant you hate women, I am very sorry. That is not what I meant at all.

Billboards on the way.

In Texas we farm everything. Even the wind. This is a wind farm.

Went to my youngest brother's for Thanksgiving. It is winter, so it is not as pretty as spring or summer.

HumbledbYGrace: dunno but we could draw a mental picture of 'it' sometime.

Lolz.

Interesting.

HumbledbYGrace: you never know....your welcome.

Lolz...is he hot?

Logicboy03: texanomaly

As a matter of fact...




How long are you going to be mad at me?

*pouty face*

Thank you HBG.

As for your reply to my PM...

Really?

Uyi Iredia: I see I wonder how early Thracians, Huns and Celts survived

They didn't actually. Are they the powers to be reckoned with that they once were? Are they even a society today? No.


Thracians:
The ancient languages of these people had already become extinct and their cultural influence was highly reduced due to the repeated barbaric invasions of the Balkans by Celts, Huns, Goths, and Sarmatians, accompanied by hellenization, romanization and later slavicization. After they were subjugated by Alexander the Great and consecutively by the Roman Empire, most of the Thracians eventually became hellenized (in the provinces of Thrace) or romanised (in Moesia and Dacia). In the 6th century, some Thraco-Romans and hellenized Thracians (i.e. Byzantines) south of the Danube River made contacts with the invading Slavs and were later eventually slavicised.[49][50] One of the three primary ancestral groups of modern Bulgarians are the Thracians.

Celts:
Under Caesar the Romans conquered Celtic Gaul, and from Claudius onward the Roman empire absorbed parts of Britain. Roman local government of these regions closely mirrored pre-Roman tribal boundaries, and archaeological finds suggest native involvement in local government.

The native peoples under Roman rule became Romanised and keen to adopt Roman ways. Celtic art had already incorporated classical influences, and surviving Gallo-Roman pieces interpret classical subjects or keep faith with old traditions despite a Roman overlay.

Huns:
After the breakdown of the Hun Empire, they never regained their lost glory. One reason was that the Huns never fully established the mechanisms of a state, such as bureaucracy and taxes, unlike Bulgars, Magyars or the Golden Horde. Once disorganized, the Huns were absorbed by more organized polities. Like the Avars after them, once the Hun political unity failed there was no way to re-create it, especially because the Huns had become a multiethnic empire even before Attila. The Hun Empire included, at least nominally, a great host of diverse peoples, each of whom may be considered 'successors' of the Huns. However, given that the Huns were a political creation, and not a consolidated people, or nation, their defeat in 454 marked the end of that political creation. Newer polities which later arose might have consisted of people formerly in the Hun confederacy, and carrying closely related steppe cultures, but they were new political creations. Later historians provide brief hints of the dispersal and renaming of Attila's people. According to tradition, after Ellac's defeat and death, his brothers ruled over two separate, but closely related hordes on the steppes north of the Black Sea. Dengizich is believed to have been king (khan) of the Kutrigur Bulgars, and Ernakh king (khan) of the Utigur Bulgars, whilst Procopius claimed that Kutrigurs and Utigurs were named after, and led by two of the sons of Ernakh. Such distinctions are uncertain and the situation is not likely to have been so clear cut. Some Huns remained in Pannonia for some time before they were slaughtered by Goths. Others took refuge within the East Roman Empire, namely in Dacia Ripensis and Scythia Minor. Possibly, other Huns and nomadic groups retreated to the steppe. Indeed, subsequently, new confederations appear such as Kutrigur, Utigur, Onogur / (Onoghur), Sarigur, etc., which were collectively called "Huns","Bulgarian Huns", or "Bulgars". Similarly, the 6th century Slavs were presented as Hun groups by Procopius.


@ topic

Mr Troll: Before Moses came down from Mount Sinai with the two Apple Tablets , the indigenous people of India, China and the Aztecs already knew that murder, stealing and lying was detrimental to their society and therefore evil.

The early Indian people had a creator god named Brahma.

The Chinese had Nü Kua, and some believed in Pangu.

The Aztecs also believed in a supreme creator of all: Ometeuctli

Grrrrrrr...now I know about this spambot thingy. I didn't see that coming. What did I say anyway? How can I avoid it in future if I don't have a clue?

Logicboy03: Take your fake apology with you. It is no apology if you sincerely believe the offensive comment you wrote about me.


I didn't know that you were such an azz. Goodbye

Seriously?

Wow

I apologized because my comment offended you. For that I am truly sorry.

I have no control over whether or not you accept that. I've done my part. Nothing you say will stop me from being concerned for your welfare.

Mr Troll: lol. This is exactly why i like you. You are honest enough to admit why you are a christian. . . .

This is why I like you...you make me laugh.

Logicboy03: So you feel that you know me enough to make that statement?

You feel that you don't need to apologise for that your assuming and insulting comment?

Funny how I used to fight against sexism and promote feminism on this site.

Smh...only going by what you put out there for all to see.

I do apologize. I should take the advice I gave Alfa. It is not necessary to say everything that is in my head. I did not mean to offend you. It was out of concern for you, that I made that comment. Again sorry.

Alfa Seltzer: I can't go against my Master's command. By marrying me, she is sinning, thus she gets to enjoys all the pleasures of this world with me and without guilt as she is weekly absolved of all trangresions by the holy father. However we know she will end up with me in hell forever, so it's a win win situation. No need to convince her. She's already one of us. Ignorantly. Just like Texanomaly here.

I had to come back to address this. I associate with many types of people. The good. The bad. The ugly. So to speak.

I started watching this certain television evangelist, because the little old lady I sit with likes him. I continued, because he is hilarious. Every once in a while he has a moment of singularity. One is brought to mind by the bolded.

He said, and I am paraphrasing,

'Some would say to keep yourself separate from sinners. Their sins may become yours. This is not the case. We should be there among them. By your works they shall know you.'

Now I will quote him directly, because I wrote this part down.

"They cannot contaminate us, we infect them"

Alfa,
There is nothing you, or anyone else here can do or say, that will shake my faith in my Heavenly Father, and in His son Jesus Christ. He saved my life physically and spiritually. It is impossible for me to deny what I have seen and heard.

Logicboy03: It was a joke.....question mark should have given it away.

See how you read so much into a joke?

Or is it that you beleived muskeetos nonsense comment about me n xtian women?




I think I jave chnaged my mind. Pls this should be the last time you misinterprete my comment

What I said was not based on the comment I quoted alone. I never take anything others say into consideration when evaluating someone. Btw. I draw my own conclusions from my own observations. Anything else would not be fair.

Logicboy03: You see, many of these rappers lived in the ghettos with crack dealers, pi.mps, p.rostitutes, murders, guns and gangs.

Then the rich and middle class america expect them to sing jolly good songs....sorry, people are affected by what they see.....their life is explicit and so will their art be explicit.....

I like music to be real and raw. Life is a mixture......It is good with bad.....on one hand, I can listen to ace of base and the other I can listen to gangsta rap

I am a writer. I am well aware that people write what they know. I had no expectation that he would write anything one way or another. Good for him. I'm glad he writes about his life. It can be cathartic. It does not, however, mean I have to listen to it.

Alfa Seltzer: Are you calling truth rudeness?
Is that why You are a christian? To live your blissful lies?

How did I miss this?

Yes I am calling truth rudeness. You know, this is something you, and many of my atheist friends have in common. There are times when truth IS rudeness. Just because something is true, does not mean it needs to be said. It is not a lie. It is just not necessary.

Logicboy03: Bitter and pegged down by their wives?

Smh

You have been associating with the wrong type of women. It occurs to me, from this comment and so many others I've seen, that the example of marriage you've encountered has not been a good one. Perhaps it is your own experiences. Whatever the case, it seems to have set your mind to a certain mode where woman are concerned. What a shame.

It is my hope that you will find a woman who changes that opinion. I would hate for you to spend your entire life with such a bitter attitude toward woman. It is not good to harbor such resentment. It can taint every aspect of your life, and make you miserable. I pray for your happiness.

RationalDude: @Alfa, you don't sound like a married man.

I don't think satan cares if one is faithful.

Alfa Seltzer: I can't go against my Master's command. By marrying me, she is sinning, thus she gets to enjoys all the pleasures of this world with me and without guilt as she is weekly absolved of all trangresions by the holy father.

Hahahahahahahaha

I should have read to the end of the thread before commenting.

Smh

Alfa Seltzer: Exciting. Isn't it.

Interesting. That's for sure. I'm curious. Were you a satanist when the two of you married? Does she know you are? Just wondering.

Logicboy03: Haha. Lolol

And he is married to a Christian.

Logicboy03: You really don't listen to rap? That part about my birthday is actually a chorus of a popular rap song

No not much. I don't really listen to the explicit stuff. Thst sounds like it is. Sorry
