There you go again with you manichaean  way of seeing the world (not
only in politics but now in religion)! There is no enemy, IT'S YOU and
only you.
Stop projecting!

And double BZZZT to you pal!
After a time, as you grow up and mature, porn stops being such a
temptation. When you grow and learn to see you start seeing the actors
faces and their eyes, and everything surrounding them, and you realize
it's a really sad thing, a sordid thing, and then your interest in
watching porn disappears.
Now having a menage a trois! That's the real thing man!

I am spiritflesh, both. If my tooth aches my spirit is affected by it.
If my daughter dies, my spirit is affected by it. That is because I am
ONE. To divide a person between spirit and flesh is schizophrenia.
Actually the division can be assimilated to that between neck and torso,
THERE IS REALLY NO DIVISION, we just divide it so as to classify, study
and specialize, but there is no real division. Same thing goes up with
spirit/flesh. I am an individual (I let it to you to check on the
etymology of the word, it will enlighten you).

Bzzzt to you. You are a theoretician here. I'm talking of facts, of
personal experience (look up a few paragraphs). Your theories may sound
fine, and will earn you praise in a theological meeting, but reality has
a mind of it's own and insists on proving you wrong. Maybe it's your god
telling you you are bonkers?

Hum... let's see here.
Change does not come from strength, yours or god's, but from
enlightenment. You suddenly see things in a new light.
For example, Petey here didn't "force" himself to leave dolls aside, he
just woke one day and dolls were not interesting any more, so he started
dating men.
Now this "seeing things in a new light" may come from your own growth,
your own meditation, or from god's will. But then god granted free will,
and that includes the whole of your spirit, the direction and timing of
your changes are included in that package. Ergo, it MUST come from you
and not from god.

Not really. I wish I could remember whom am I referring to, but
according to what has being transmitted there was no cry to god to take
control, he just had a change of heart, he looked at his doings and was
estranged from them, so he followed his heart. Was it Aquino, Asis?
Can't remember.

LOL
That's not karate! Even though japs are Shintoists there is no mention
of animals there. You are probably referring to Chinese martial arts,
kung pao, kung fu, tai chi, etc. But even there, they are just
denominations, inspiration, the creator inspired himself in the way of
fighting of the animal, distilled the essence of it's strategy and
tactic and created the style. Nothing to do with demons!

Miyagi is an ACTOR. And not a very good one. You just have to see him
walk and move to see he has no hara, no chi.

Good! Thanks a lot! It's nice to know I have some 50 extra years to sin
before repentance! thanks!

Well in that case, god, hell, heaven and all that jazz are not something
you can know carnally. So why would your complicated belief be better
off than my simple and down to earth belief?

If catholics can eat every sunday the flesh of Christ, then I guess
cannibalism is not all that bad. Isn't it?
