Lakumi

I don't see what calling someone a gay or racial slur has to do with protecting life, liberty and property... I could do without seeing hate signs on people's lawns, methinks that would lower property values... just saying, I would never live next to a homophobe or racist, and I think I am not the only one. And yes people do have the tendancy to jump the gun, which is why that wouldn't work...

and then you give the bishop 10 rocks and he thinks you're off the rocker:lol:

You can't even get on Den of Angels these days without an invite anyone who is anyone is there!

In what insane way could that possibly work?! Say that was a law, and you knew a homosexual man and felt like, I donno, spray painting hate messagaes on his door (or if there was no retrobution for anything, fire bombing) what's to say, he doesn't get to you first? If no one was immune, everyone would just be out to get anyone they dislike And it could turn into a war. Some lawless land where it is legal to murder anyone you dislike. But maybe you didn't mean murder, just you feel no one should tell you that it was wrong to hate someone and tell them you can't hate people openly. You don't think the church, or any church, wouldn't get any issues with that? A lot of people don't care for churches, would go both ways.

I could only imagine a bishop's face being handed a ball jointed doll, a mixture of confusion and terror is the most common one

Sometimes there is no money ever in the equasion. Like I get a tv from a unit I was cleaning out (as a favour to a friend), I trade the tv for yugioh cards, which I trade further for my little ponies. I see what you mean, but as I said I have made it my business to trade, its just easier that way:lol:

Oh I know, I just thought the idea would be funny, heck I wrote a story about it, a neighbourhood of LDS people and 1 family who no one seems to know... posted some of it here... very non threatening.

Unless you're not LDS, then that'd be weird "Look there, that be Lakumi, the only one here who's not a Mormon...strange songs be sung in yonder hold!" (and no I don't know why I wrote like a pirate)

poor ain't ever living in those highrises

those dolls are worth more to me then anything else. And I buy them generally one at a time, even 2 at a time, but how can you give 10% of two things? Maybe some little dresses? The cards make sense, but he better keep an eye to know when to sell them, lest he ends up with worthless or far lower value cards:lol: or a bunch of staples that are always usually worth a decent sum I imagine when the law was first told, they meant something that was value to all, like grain or currency, not doll dresses.

gen 3 or gen 4:lol:

Do they have policies involving athiests? lol

I donno how that could possibly work on yugioh cards, which-while often worth money-they can plummet to next to nothing should the card be reprinted-or jump up if the demand for the dard is there. I don't often come into hard currency, or hard anything, just weird things like cards, and dolls and such which not everyone even equates a value of any sort to Like I traded a bunch of doll clothes for some my little ponies, there was no money exchanged on that, but I got a better deal since the ponies were less common. Do you tithe on the ponies, even if you have no money? I have no money, but the ponies are indeed worth something.

I would think God would be very confused with my income

1. What religion do you subscribe to? (Since not all of us are LDS.) My "own" (I named Konism) 2. Were you born into, or converted to your religion? I "invented" it (more taking from many other religions and putting it together to my liking-then gave it a name) 3. Are you a devout, casual, or inactive member of your religion? I'd say devout because its mine 4. What is one core principle in your religion that you feel strongly about? My idea of God 5. What is one misconception that outsiders have about your religion? Before one finds out exactly what I believe, people expect something truly insane... then get something actually pretty simple 6. Name one religion that fascinates you. Hinduism, LDS, Islam...to name a few

Some of my responces with those guys on the streets have been hilarious and sometimes informative. Many are rather amazed I know so much about their religion, despite never having gone to one of their churches services I think its all about how they approach me, sometimes its harsh, in that case I respond with nonsense (claiming to be a Konite, or Jedi or some such madness) others, like with LDS Missionaries, I am much more kind and obviously open to discussion since they tend to be friendly lol

I have my own ideas about God and religion. To me I feel they all have something to teach me. I still read the Book of Mormon, even though I am not a Mormon or believe like others do, I still feel it has things to share to me. Some people like seeing those sorts of folk on the tv and radio, some it doesn't, faith-I think- is individualistic, like people.

Canada seems sporatic about things, Alberta seems to be our Mormon belt (since that's where the first Mormons came and the first temple was made) in Ontario, there's only 1 temple, in Toronto (oddly enough not in Ottawa-the national capital, I guess the Mormon population there isn't all that big there, I donno) Where I live, I don't think the Meetinghouse is all that old, since its close to the edge of town. I think Winnipeg is getting one, Canada has 9 in total (3 in Alberta and 1 in most other places) New Brunswick, PEI, and Newfoundland don't have any, nor do any of the Territories

I donno about anymore, but when I was small kindergarden was half day, so my mom was home for that, but as soon as we both were in full time school she got a full time job, there was no need for her to be home, since neither of us were. We'd go to a friends house for like an hour until dad got home then went up home. All we cared about was not missing pokemon or power rangers which we didn't so... it never bothered us I mean I am only older by 2 years, and there's only the 2 of us kids, maybe it would have been different if there was more or we had a greater age difference.

I have a replica North Korean hat... made in China I collect hats:lol: if its like Die Hard (the original one) then I must see it because I loved Die Hard!

I see what you mean, regardless of my own personal choices and wishes in life.

I use myself as an example because I only truly know myself it would be rather strange, at least to me, to try and use someone else as an example

I still would never ask that of any wife I had, nor would I place the family in financial troubles for a system I consider outdated I think gender roles are absurd, people think differently. Is it wrong that if given the chance to stay home and do all the home things or have a job I'd want to stay home, simply because I find a greater joy in making a meal or creating a home in my own ideas, then I do working in a thankless job? But because I am a man that is wrong to think?
