What's on your mind?

Yeah, that's probably an apt description. The thing is, the pictures still enhance everything, so I can only imagine what they must look like with image filtering as well. It blows my mind just thinking about it. They already look insane from all angles.

Still a little confused what you mean.. is this like insane makeup tricks or something? Or just really aesthetically pleasing looking people?

Less than 300 posts until I finally hit the 50k! Wonder if I have the most posts for a non-Christian on this site? Lol.

A combination of both - it's actually really hard to explain without you seeing it.

Hoping Bernie Sanders does well tonight.

*melodramatic gasp* .... Evil socialist communist Venezuelan Stalinist anti-American fiend! You'll destroy us all! Trump please save us! *goes off and runs around the house grabbing every shotgun and assault rifle he has stockpiled in preparation for civil war*

A mate of mine just had a new tattoo on his back - it's of a burning church. It ain't small either.

I mean, I'm tattooed and all, but wow.

Our God is a consuming fire. Would be a cool tattoo.

Just watched pbs special on the orthodox church. Communism in Russia was no joke. The church was nearly wiped out in only 10 years. But this meme is funny. From an mmo i used to play. Dp means depo, a place you store your items at.

Struggling with anger regarding women making fun of short men. I mean, I haven't really vented it out towards anyone but I come really close. The new (and incredibly fast growing) subreddit "Female Dating Strategy" is absolutely rancid. Calling short men "genetic failures", and openly promoting body shaming of us.

I mean honestly.. depends why a man is short. I'm probably short due to my family being pretty neotenous despite having European heritage. Higher neoteny is usually correlated with advanced evolutionarily status. That's not exactly "genetically inferior". Plenty of my short relatives owned their own business and some were multi millionaires too. Plus.. since neotenous women are highly regarded, my male ancestors had children with the top tier women of the village or wherever they came from.. lol.

SJWs need to be careful in that regard.. trying to mock short men as being of lower genetic quality can easily dip into racial issues. I know a few tried to pull that on me in the past and I brought up the differences in height between races and the hypercritical liberals run off.

I guess this post is ranting a little, but it really hasn't gone after anyone else body type in retaliation.. so I think its fine.. just things that have been brewing in my mind lately. I'm trying to be a nicer person. Lol.

both sexes suffer from shallowness. Remind yourself that you too are biased. We might know how strong the coercion of our evolutionary past can be but I think that humans are a little bit more flexible and complex. Well some of us might be pretty shallow but that would be considered a flaw or a lack of development in my eyes.

A good relationship is going to require more depth anyways. For all you know you were listening to the opinions of 16 year old women.

Nah, many of them seem to be bitter from past experiences in the dating scene. Most seem to be in their 20s and up.

Really though, this whole "neotenous" thing has given me more self esteem. I'm told by some as a short man I shouldn't have children because I am "genetically inferior". Yet in reality if I had girls (and both sides of my family pretty much give birth to girls 90% of the time *weird how that works huh.. wonder if there is a biological mechanism to this*), they'd most likely be higher valued than the kind of children these people mock me could produce.

I mean if SJWs can to get into this debate of certain types of people being lower on the genetic pool than others, the argument isn't going to be as straightforward as some hope. Really, the evolution of mankind is largely based on the types of mates men choose. The tall ripped 6+ foot male stud is pretty rare. If they were so genetically superior, they'd dominate the landscape of men. Yet studies show women view 80% of men as below average while men have a more even bell curve. In reality women are attracted to more archaic traits and fortunately for human evolution women are less looked obsessed than us males.

I was pleasantly surprised to be able to hang with the adorable Erin again last night, unexpectedly, who just so happened to be asked by the normal guy in her section on my crew to switch a shift with her, just as I was asked to switch around with the person I typically alternate shifts with, Natalya, for the last two days (when normally I would have been on the day shift at this time and Natalya on nights, but she asked me at the last minute to go to nights while she does days). ... Even though it is true that I commonly address my lady coworkers in the lab of any age as "Miss" before speaking their name, and hold the door to the outside open for everyone of both genders if I see them coming through my section with arms full, I wonder if Erin has caught on to my slightly growing fondness for her in seeing me do these same small things for her. ^-^

It's funny how many of the old mods - who gave me infractions and warnings back in the day, are now inactive or even banned.

I hated that era from 2015 to 2017. I'd only have to post an ellipsis and they'd be on to me. Never mind that 75% of my posts are designed to help and encourage people (more so than all of those old mods combined, actually), no, let's just jump on ReesePiece from a great height just for posting a funny picture.

I'm not talking about the current flock of mods. This strictly pertains to the corrupt mob from a few years ago.

And you were one of those who actually did their job properly too.

Shocking, really. And yet, the crazy people are allowed to spam untold amounts of threads several times a day, trying as hard as they can to be controversial and inflammatory towards anyone who dares have an opinion of their own.

Don't worry, if you're Catholic with a animated gif for an avatar you get a pass. We'll just sweep it under the rug.

Pretty much.

People just bait reactions then sit back sniggering like a kid when the people replying get in trouble.

If it were up to me I'd ban political topics completely from CF but that would kill the site so it'll never happen.

I might use passive non-violent resistance to outfox those members. I'm tired of seeing it - time for a revolution I think.

Go after the offending OP, ignore the debate.

You definitely need to go post in that thread.

When you actually Google "Christian Forums" the results are really quite troubling. Some of those cached posts are simply horrifying as well.

Worst of all - a 1.2 star rating.

Woooo!

Everyone, seriously, please pray for @sportsfan . He has been really bad off mentally (not saying this as any kind of insult or judgment, mind you), and is scared of many things, namely becoming an anti-christ. Please pray that God heals him of all of this. This thread I link you to is far from the only time something like this has frightened him and messed with his mind.

@sportsfan If you're ever having troubling thoughts like that, just post them in this thread. We'll do what we can to rationalise them.

I'm not an expert, but I've overcome OCD, anxiety, etc.

I saw the yellow cross in the shower and I believe it was supernatural but I was unaware being human on October 4 I was praying to Jesus when a yellow light appeared everyone around me tells me that is not blasphemy of the Holy Spirit that Blasphemy is verbal sin and not mental through a dream it was a evil dream of Satan I know realize he was masquerading as an angel of light I believe it turned me into the antichrist I saw stuff about hell in the physch hospital and it opened up and I turned it down saying Jesus save me but everyone around me says I am fine with Jesus that yellow cross was nothing but a dream and I was a christian when it occured and I heard you cant get tricked out of salvation so it is a hallucination dream I am having because the rapture still hasnt happened despite my supposed supernatural power so it is in my head and I am going to Heaven still my name is still in the lambs book of life.
