Set G

Pike wrote:
When the Mason learns that the key to the warrior on the block is the proper application of the dynamo of living power, he has learned the mystery of his Craft. The seething energies of Lucifer are in his hands, and before he may step onward and upward, he must prove his ability to properly apply energy.

Bible wrote:
And they shall be afraid: pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them; they shall be in pain as a woman that travaileth: they shall be amazed one at another; their faces shall be as flames.

What is your point?

Also quoting the bible at atheists is pointless, we regard it as a work of fiction. I would get more meaning from you quoting the Lord of the Rings or the Hitch-Hikers Guide to the Galaxy.

"Your God puts an apple tree in the middle of a garden and says, do what you like, guys, oh, but don't eat the apple. Surprise surprise, they eat it and he leaps out from behind a bush shouting "Gotcha". It wouldn't have mad any difference if they hadn't eaten it."

"Why not?"

Because if you're dealing with somebody who has the sort of mentality which likes leaving hats on the pavement with bricks under them you know perfectly well they won't give up. They'll get you in the end."

Derr! You have two set

Derr! You have two set 'G's'. Learn the alphabet or use numbers.

Both sides of what??? Aren't there more sides to each of those implicit issues?

Are you trying to compare Crowley, the jesus myth, and the Bushes?

May I add a quote to these

May I add a quote to these sets?

How about, "WHAT THE FUCK?"

This reminds me of the time when my friend answered my question, "Why is there a rash on your leg?

"I got poison ivy because there was no soap"

It took him 15 minutes to finally explain that he had walked through some poison ivy and didn't wash it off immediately".

How nice.Another theist who

How nice.

Another theist who thinks that atheists are Satanists.

Newsflash: Satan is a deity also. Atheists have no use for deities, be they benevolent or malevolent (in the case of Yahweh and Satan, both are malevolent).

  You poor confused soul.

  You poor confused soul. Yahweh, god of abe, is the devil of wrong thinking. Jesus philosophy was an atheistic one. The bibull is a book of battle and deception. "Jesus" for the most part lost, and is still losing due to Christian type thinking.  REPENT ! Get free.

I suggest you re-read that book and especially the gnostic ones. Me Jesus/Buddha is rooting for ya ..... save the Xains .....

Right now, the person who wrote the OP is sitting comfortably in his computer chair, with his lube and tissues and a bong, thinking to himself..."Yeah... these guys are so stupid... Dude... it's like... they may be... you know... older... but like... you know... I'm almost sixteen.   God, please help me find a good Christian girl to marry so I don't have to keep sinning into my tissues...."

Quote:

What, in particular, gave you the idea that your well being was my primary concern?

I pride myself in my ability to force my own suffering upon others.  If I had to see the image, you had to.

You know,since we're all

You know,since we're all going to hell, it's time we asked some important qusetions. Like is there a cash bar, or are the first 5000 years worth of drinks on the host?

No way! It's eternity. I'm not going anywhere near the lake of fire without a $15 martini first. How could Satan, patron saint of lawyers, not be good for that? There should be a contract somewhere involved, so just take your time checking it out, and make sure to keep a clause about a decent beer or some scotch in there. Should be fine.

Grr... now I'm gonna have to

Grr... now I'm gonna have to look this shit up... there's some bar in Manhattan that sells a $1500 martini.  When I heard about it the first time, I thought sure it had a diamond in it or something, but no.  It has $3500/bottle champagne in it.

Dammit.  This is going to bug me until I remember which bar it is.

 

Not that this thread needs help derailing, but I'm of the considered (and experienced) opinion that there's a level of absurdity somewhere between $200 and $500 a bottle.  I've had very expensive wine and champagne.  Some of it was extraordinary, and some, to be honest, I'd have sent back at $10.  However, there are some rare vintages that are worth spending extra money on if you happen to have it.  I think, though, that there's a point where your return on investment gets so small that it's absurd.  How much better could a $1500 martini be than a $15 martini?

There's a place in Philadelphia called El Vez.  Damn good brunch, and the best Guacamole I've ever had.  They do tequila flights with $30/shot tequila.  I've had just about all of them, and I'll agree that the $30 tequila is good enough that I'll splurge from time to time.  I've had $100/shot tequila, and I would probably pay $35 and feel like I'd gotten my money's worth.  I just don't see how the palette can recognize any substantial difference that could justify a thousand damn dollars for any drink.

While we're derailing, it's not about palette (as I'm sure you know). My hypothesis is that it's the "missing penis phenomenon". I've seen guys order things like that, just to be dicks, or because they just made a huge trade and they think they're king shit. Women just flock. The phenomenon must be seen to be believed. Women from other tables, who were just out partying, came over for "bottle service", which means paying stupid amounts of money for a plain bottle of booze. The guys get surrounded by women.

Here's my theory: the man spends this kind of money so that later, when the woman discovers he has no penis, she won't be too upset. At least she got a good story out of it.

But back to hell: Satan is probably awash in that $3500 champagne. Honestly, if you had to take care of stupid hell, you'd probably have some good booze.
