[quote=John H.]Hi Maynard,

I DO understand. Being "...one of the hottest women..." (at least physically) is not the WHOLE package. You want someone who is good at heart and soul, all else follows.

If she is playing you she is. You are going to have to figure out if that is true or not because you do not want your life made more miserable. It is not an easy thing to do many times. Sometimes time can help and sometimes it can be harmful too.

KEEP WORKING OUT DAMN HARD though because that WILL KEEP YOU ON TRACK. And will help you make good decisions.

HANG IN THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks again John. If I can get past the unbelievable sex we have then to be honest with you there is nothing else. She a controlling, cheating, and dishonest bitch who really fucked me and our son over. I dont really want a rebound with a girl now either. Im just trying to get my head right again. Thanks for the advice.

because science is as yet unable to explain a certain phenomenon you will not believe it. thats ridiculous, ask any scientist, there are so many things out there that we as yet do not have explanations for yet undoubtedly happen.

I think about it all of the time, as we get deeper and deeper into decoding the micro universe we in turn understand the macro so therefore it's all relative in both directions infinitely.

it seems if God was to create other Gods they would have to develop the same characteristics God has. I hardly feel hitler would qualify under this criteria. his thoughts on God creating Gods does not destroy the need for a judgement at all.

Your flaw is that your viewing individuals and not the whole picture, for humans to become the new gods it'll take the work of our entire existence, from the discovery of fire to the first entity built by man from raw elements encoded with the right programming.

I never claimed that science provides the only valid knowledge--that's patently absurd....just as believing in the literal interpretation of obvious metaphorical stories is absurd. Presently, science cannot explain everything, nor do I believe we'll ever have a totally unified understanding of existence that is subject to scientific scrutiny. From that, religion is a necessary feature of everyone's life--whether they admit it or not.....it fills the gap of not knowing (i.e., faith). But there's a huge difference between authentic religious impulse and the rote crapola that passes as profound religious doctrine.

By the way, I brought up the science angle b/c some people posted statements to the effect that the Bible is scientifically accurate--once again, pure drivel. How about the Iliad or Little Red Riding Hood--they are scientifically accurate also...whatever that means.

i hardly consider the iliad the same as the bible. and just because there are things science cannot explain does not make it scientifically in-accurate. in makes science in-adequate

Hi Maynard,

You're welcome!!! Sex is NEVER the only thing. Just a part of the ALL.

Think things out clearly. Do not make any rash decisions necessarily.

And while you are figuring it all out DO YOURSELF A REAL FAVOR - STAY WITH BODYBUILDING - it HELPS you in more ways than we realize. And IS your foundation as a MAN.

TDGC, John H.

Sooo, tell me Luke... how does a God die?

I could understand someone saying "there is a god" or "there isnt a god", but I have to admit it is quite humorous every time I hear it.

I personally say "there isnt a God", though its an open belief willing to change upon further investigation of the subject, because realistically, I dont have evidence for or against it.

However, unless you are the one human on earth that has proof otherwise, I'd dare say that you dont know one way or another.

Unless you're using the term metaphorically for something we worship. In which case, I can guarantee you the God of Money is alive and well

For the time being

So thats the roots of your philosophy? God is Dead, but Clapton is alive...

I'm sure there are some who would call that profound, and I'm sure they own all his albums
