But it was okay because they're French and speak French, funnily enough.
Apparently one of my friends had a gun pulled on him for paying out someone on oz.org 2 years ago. I find that markedly amusing. :)
Well, I just thought about this for a moment, the whole Christian/Judaic thing.
Okay, by the nature of humanity and original sin (sex) everyone is dirty and is consequently going to hell when they die.
However this would be a bad thing - being condemned - because if everyone knew that they were going to a nasty place then they wouldn't be good while they were here, would they? They might run around having sex all the time or something... soooo then they reckon that if you're nice enough to some deity (i.e. by not having sex or killing people) then you might convince him not to send you to hell when you die.
But you're unworthy of the deity because you're a product of original sin, so you're probably going to hell anyway... ?
So then they go "Oh but there's one who's not a subject to original sin and he died for us all so nobody has to go to hell!".
This is where the Christians come in... but Jesus didn't go to hell, he ascended into heaven?
But Jesus appears to be an all right kinda guy, so he might not send you to hell - if you live by all his hippy philosophy - free love and drugs and hug thy neighbor and all that.
So maybe you're not going to hell? Where is hell anyway?
*blek*
Oh come ON, guys, this story is stupid and full of self-contradiction!
... yah and this gets all complex if you drag the Satan thing in.
So, when you think about it just a little further its quite easy to recognise that all of this heaven/hell thing came about because a few Judaic women contracted some STD's from the Egyptians (Eve being the original sinner after all).
Bah.
Oh yah and I think I may be getting an amazingly cool laptop for very little money - as long as this joker in Sydney calls me back at some point this afternoon. Whee! :)
I hope you don't all walk away from this chuckling. :)
I miss my special one. :(
