What is it that you are respecting though? Why do you feel the need to? Specially when you loath to, when you loathe religion, and when you loathe everything associated with it? Do you understand why it could seem very strange to someone who is unfamiliar with that kind of thing? Like how when I saw Obama genuflect to the Saudis and folks tell me its about respect, tradition, and decorum. That is weird to me.
dude don't act so dense idc if its a buddhist morning, i'll feed the monks a Korean house i'll remove my shoes its just respect the fact that its not something i believe or understand really has zero to do w it thats spirituality imo respect
its respecting other people and their basic need to believe in something good i don't resent that why would you? i'm a heathen of the highest order and people genuinely fear me but i can drop acid and go to mass i more or less did that last year and ended up laying on my fathers grave talking to his new neighbor waiting for mom to finish mass that was as real as anything i've ever experienced your just feigning your angst anyway
Thank you. First rule of fight club is that you must always be able to defend your faith at a drop of a hat. Being checked is a friendly act and not a threat. You can only defend something that you actually have. I am curious about what you guys experience as Catholics. I am at the same time repulsed and fascinated by it. Like this vampire wizard looking dude. I can't help it. He looks straight out of a pulp comic. He sounds like it too, his mannerisms, etc... But I love his messages. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8qqZup3Bg4
My issue is with the suit and tie businessman attire. If I could dress like a pimped out bela lugosi for church I may have to reconsider things.
My father listened to him all the time...not for the message, mind you, but his "great sense of humor". My.mother even got into listening to him and I remember them both smiling when they did.
i meant in the case of very young girls especially and i know not to stare and go into creeper mode which i think a lot of guys forget was in a vons the other day and i see this lady wearing white spandex w a thong so i head that direction for a pass by as i got closer i realize its not a lady but a young girl maybe 13 she's black and white mix and super cute but obviously a young girl w a womans body i didn't look back but for sure that girl was putting herself in danger dressing that way some freak is going to follow that family home and wait for his chance nothing against looking sexy but its a dangerous world out there and no 13 year old should be out there in sheer spandex w a thong and a cameltoe
im not acting i told you i do not have experience with catholic cathedrals. my dad took me once when I was 11 and it was a gloomy place with weird chanting and i remember being weirded out by the whole thing. dozens of saints in niches all over looking down on you and idols of jesus all beat up bleeding everywhere it was like a horror movie then I saw my dad again when I was 17 and during a road trip to mexico we stopped at his nephews house so I could meet my cousin. he lived at this awesome cathedral in lake Chapala and had recently become a priest there that was an entirely different experience see i have no idea what you mean about feeding the monks? i go to a buddhist buffet run by monks called sweet veggie and they feed me then they sit down and eat too. when i go to asians house and they take off their shoe I take mine off too but I dont eat with their chopsticks and ask for a fork. i understand the difference and i understand why i am taking off my shoes i dont do it because of a respect thing, i do it because i want to do it if I did not want to take my shoes off then why would i go to an asians persons house your take on spirituality is that you will do something you dont believe in or understand out of respect because that is what being spiritual is? that is why i asked, because everyone i have ever heard say they are spiritual has given me very different answers i personally cannot understand the reasoning behind that premise because i think its not like your analogy with the korean house because you know why you should take off your shoes in a koreans house you know they do it for religious or cultural reasons that go far beyond simply wanting to go longer between having to vacuum the carpet. its not simply a matter of respect you know it would be highly offensive for you to not remove your shoes it would be a purposeful FU in their face and they may ask you to go outside and remove them so you know that you are compelled to remove your shoes it is an inescapable fact i hate going to costco family members want to go all the fucking time im like, the point of costco is that you go once in a while you get all your shit done, you wait in that long ass line you chat up the cleric for a little bit and pay your dues while saying hail maries the double off coupons were still in effect and you get the fuck out of dodge you dont stick around the courtyard or the parking lot talking shit you put your baggage away and you get in your car and you go get some innout but i will go and eat their disgusting cafeteria food while i wait for the lady costco members to go through the aisles and i wont like it and im not putting on pants for it much less socks
Witness your faith to others? Showing how you 'get it' is the act of witness? To show that you are 'wit it' so others can have the property of being wit it too? In other words to be wise to the situation, to know, to dig? I am not much of a fan of high church, im mostly low church/fantasy type of role playing gamer. But from what i can see the reasoning behind genuineness and not lip service of "showing" respect is to provide a service to others there so that they can have their feeling of being with it reinforced and to inspire the feeling of being with it in others that may not be feeling with it? It is important to you because you love the people who are with you who are with it and who feel that you are with it with them and because of the chemistry created by this synergy. Sounds like witchcraft to me!
Maybe but your specious 'reasoning' still comes off as bullshit Now claim again that you don't "get it". Which is it? BTW learn how to use chopsticks, or remain culturally insensitive...aka rude Umm huh, Now go ahead and spout off again about "canticles of solomon" I've toured abroad and traveled to a grand Mosque.. no interest whatsoever in becoming a Muslim ... and I took off my hat. The women covered their shoulders. When in Rome... Rube, I completely enjoy your wild ass rants and bear through your dogmatic Organized Religion loose/twisted interpretations, so go ahead and fess up about which set of ancient fables you DO buhlieve in because until then you're just talking out both sides of your mouth. Like some ignorant fool you do not want to be seen as. Showing courtesy to other cultures/faiths is simply that.. showing courtesy. Showing respect. Costs you almost nothing. Travel to Asia and demand black tea and a fork, they'll try to accommodate you... out of courtesy and respect. Of course you'd be an asshat to do so and they know it. So do you.
it looked a grown ass woman w a perfect ass so a drive by was in order thats why they wear that stuff fuck i'll turn the car around if it warrants it
