Ed, If that's your definition of rich, then that's great...however, there
are those who also consider their Beamer, their 4K sq ft house, and their
accoutrements as being gifts from God. They also consider their lives to be
rich in more than just money. Don't be so hasty to judge others just
because they like their possessions or have more than you. That makes your
definition smack of insincerity.

It's not about things; it's about attitude. I'm all about building the kingdom
of God on earth (actually, that's all we all are about) and the wealthy have a
major handicap in that area.

That is the most damaging anti-sailing comment ever.

Why so? Do you think because I sail with God that I am somehow not 'liberal"
enough to sail? I assure you: I have no politics and no cause other than to be
a tool in the construction of the Kingdom of God.

Why is that? BMW's arent that expensive! And some of them are a lot of fun to
drive. If the M3 goes to AWD and gets some headroom, I'd buy one. It's just a
car that even you could afford.

No, no, no, no. That's not what I mean. If a person likes a car for the car's
sake, that's a different story. If I hate a car, but drive it so others will
think I'm better than they are, above what they are, then I'm in hell. For
instance, large SUVs cost more than the smaller BMWs and Mercedes. It's not
about the car; it's about the attitude. IMHO anyway.

It's not
about the car; it's about the attitude. IMHO anyway.

Right, I agree. I'm driving a STI which clobbers the more expensive M3 and I
could care less that it's a Subaru. If Kia or Lincoln ever makes a good car,
I'd buy it. Names be damned.

I have no politics and no cause other than to be

The problem is that you should respect others enough to keep "your" god to
yourself. I only wish Bush could understand this basic ideal. Enjoy the
sailing.

Yea, and y'all otta see what it takes to get into a major gang.

Man, it's easy to see why this country is a conservative pool of filth when
people are thanking invisble "forces" for their own hard work.
Poor Katy was brainwashed. She would not know of "god" unless it had been
taught to her.

Katy has faith blobster

What is faith? On the surface it may look like blind trust. You look
at spirituality and only sees people indulging in wishful thinking
about things they can't see.

But if you've ever been touched by the spirit, you know it's not that
simple. Faith is the opposite of blind trust. It's something in the
human heart that knows in the deepest and most intimate sense that
there is something eternal and that this is profoundly connected with
human beings. You might be touched by the spirt the day your rugrat is
born, so beware.

To honor this simple truth, all the religions of the world were
created. They differ on many issues. And yet they all agree that there
is a divine presence in the world and that humans honor this presence
best by leading meaningful and ethical lives.


Oh, George Carlin, where art thou?

Faith IS blind trust, regardless of your other comments. You've never been
touched by a spirit, though you may actually believe that.
It's easy to see why religion kills so many.

Look it up, dumbass! I have an M3 to drive and it only has a slight advantage
after 120 mph. AWD hook up is too much for the M3. You could spend weeks
looking for the perfect launch while the STI does it every time. I think you
probably don't even know how to drive!
Lincoln? Wahahahaahahaha! Love that cheap thang!
