There really is a difference between Satanists and Atheists. I can use this as a reference to what those differences are!  :D[/quote

Um..you do realize that this isn't a serious thread..right?  If you were trying to be funny it isn't and if you were trying to be serious you are ignorant.
Did you happen to notice my smiley face? You seriously seem to have an issue with my posts. I realize humor doesn't always come across in text. That's why I always add a little happy face to my silly posts. I also did make reference to having one of them about prayer. Then making a joke about how everyone peeks. I seriously think you need to reconsider your sensitive nature to my every posts. I make serious questions I am deemed some sort of interloper. I go about making gest and I can't even do that. I take offense to being considered ignorant for trying to point out light heartedly differences here. Especially since in my intro thread someone asked this very question. And as I have had problems trying to answer that very question (why don't you just call yourself an Atheist question)I thought it funny to say this is the difference.

Is everyone just smoking too much gangi around here?

*crap. What is going on with the quote thingy here?

Quote from: Mister JoyI tell people, very pointedly, that I'm a homosexual non-believer if I think they're bigoted and backwards enough to be wound up by it. Because winding up dogmatic people is both easy and fun.
Much more so when what you claim is true  <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/popcorn.gif" alt=":pop:" title="watching" />

This is true for me. It's actually how  I lost a nine year friendship.
Which is strange, because my friend always knew I was gay and didn't believe in God, but he became much more hardcore asshole Catholic in his early twenties.

I have a feeling his mommy thought I was a heathen.  He had Oedipus complex anyway. He did anything for his cock sucking jesus mommy. i gained more than I lost then. :D

I suppose it takes two. How old are you now?

To high school guys a lesbian is just a girl who will have sex with a guy but only when he's a really good friend and her girlfriend is there to join in.  If a high school guy is homophobic, it's normally only against gay guys and butchy gay girls.  They have fantasies about attractive lesbians.  It's a sexist double standard.  Or is it triple standard?  Anyway, I don't know much about your former friend so this isn't specifically about him, but when a guy gets out of high school and is faced with the real world, views change a lot because his main influences aren't the same as when he was in high school.

I think it's a bi-standard.  ::)

Why is it that so many lesbians are into piercings and that kind of stuff?

Well, that is media and the porn industry's doing.   I don't like generalization.   Like hetero couples, gay couples come in all shapes, sizes, and races. :D :D

Answer to your question...most lesbians are not into piercings just like most people are not into piercings.  Please refrain from generalizing whole groups of people.

Now back on topic....

Sorry, it was a question based on observation, but I take your point, you're probably right.
