Race - sick of the nonsense

[CJ]

On the topic of race...
Keep in mind that blatant discrimination is easily ended because it is easy to see. It is the subtle nuances of racism that have the most staying power. They exist even within those of us who believe we are free of racism and other forms of discrimination. No one is totally free of prejudice. Be careful. If you think you no longer need to work at being totally racism free; you are certainly very wrong. The discrimination in New Orleans is as obvious as the difference between black and white. The hard part is deciding where it came from and how to deal with it. I don't believe anyone would intentionally disregard victims because of race; I don't think any person should be blamed, but somehow those people were left behind in huge numbers and it took way too long to reach them. Whatever the cause, the problem needs to be fixed.

I tend to be prejudice against ungodly folks. When I say prejudice, I mean I steer clear of them. To me, ungodly folk are the devil's appendages. He uses ungodly folk to help him displease the Almighty. The devil is ugly and harmful and crafty and deceitful and out to destroy anything beautiful.

Rule of thumb:

Beauty=Almighty
Ugly=devil

This is the lounge! The philosophy thread is ... yet to be created. Go there immediately. The religion thread is in the same place. I repeat, this is the Lounge, full of humour, non-sense, some cussing without the vowels, some sex cakes, and other devilish stuff. Say it with me, L-O-U-N-G-E. Lounge. Keep saying it and it just may make you forget why you were here. You will want to do nothing other than Lounge.

BTW (that is By the Way for CJ), to many double negatives to sort out your statement. It is easier to understand if you say what you mean and not what you don't mean.

One other thing, if ugly = devil, I guess I am wearing red.

"ungodly folk are the devil's appendages" - if this is a lounge, I need another appletini.

Folks, all your pictures are of the Almighty's creations. Not the devil's. The devil can't create anything but havoc.

What does that have to do with racism? or the Lounge's useless, but fun information? I am not trying to offend the Godly folks, but I think you need to be on the thread God v Devil. Okay, it was difficult for me to place it in the other forum which is supposed to be about SoWal info. Forgive me, fellow loungers.

Since they were both reading scripts, supposedly, Mike Myers probably thought the guy could not read.

SJ you are directly responsible for my having laughed out loud at the Publix on Grand Boulevard and making a minor spectacle of myself. I'm minding my own business, walking amongst the frozen food, think of this for some reason and let loose with something between a high pitched whinny and a baritone guffaw.

Thanks! I needed that.

And Dear God, We've had the pleasure of seeing you wear red right here in the lounge!

...and to think that my exwife used to tell me that I was not funny. I knew I was funny. Thanks for proving it via your public display at Publix.

How on earth can you make such an incredibly uninformed statement like that??
