Greetings!
This is the story of a young man's journey from reason to reason, from belief in no gods to belief in One God, from love to love. This young man is myself.
I was ten years old. I didn't believe in God or any religious, spiritual, or supernatural thing. I received a blue Bible on my tenth birthday called 'The Good News Bible'. I didn't like it; I thought it was ugly and had a stupid name, so I left it. It sat on the table in the living room for a long while. But one day, I felt impelled - not by some force but only by my curiosity - to read it, to see what this strange book was all about. So I knelt at the table (it was a low table, so I had to kneel, even though I hate to kneel because it hurts my knees) and opened up the Bible to a random page. I thought it was a very stupid book, what with the name Matthew on the top of each page, footnotes at the bottom of each page, and the text in columns. It was very different from any other book I had ever read before! But I began to read about a man named Jesus being scourged at the pillar. As I read further the story, my heart began to open to this man. Pontius Pilate said he was innocent - why was this innocent man being made to suffer so? The man was condemned to death, and had to walk to where he would die. I wanted to comfort this man at this point, to bring him consolation for such cruel and unjust punishment. I turned the page and read about Jesus' crucifixion. My eyes filled up with tears. I had never read a story like this before! I remember I looked at a picture at the top of the page, and it was a sketch of Jesus on the Cross, seen from a bird's eye-view. I felt so much compassion for this man that in my mind I cried out: Jesus!
Suddenly, there was a flash of light, like lightning, and a man appeared above the table. He wore a white garment and had his right hand raised in a strange gesture, which years later I would learn was a sign of blessing. He was a very beautiful man, dazzling bright, and he spoke to me in a strong yet gentle voice.
"Nicholas, do you wish to console me?" he asked.
"Who are you, sir?" I replied.
"I am Jesus."
"Sir, why did you have to suffer and die like that?"
"Nicholas, do you wish to console me?"
Suddenly I saw myself sharing in Jesus' suffering: being condemned to death, dragging a cross to a little hill, and there being crucified.
"Yes, Sir."
"Than enter my Church and suffer for me."
At those last three words, I understood that I would not only be suffering for Jesus but also with Jesus. The man vanished: first his feet, than his body, and finally, his face. I looked to the left and saw another man, also dazzling bright, but he was not like Jesus - this man looked like someone wrapped up in a sheet. He had a golden arrow on a golden bow, and pointed the arrow at me and shot it. The arrow went right through my heart, and in an instant three things happened at once: I fell in love with God, I was filled with a peace I had never experienced before, and I was overwhelmed with a joy I had never experienced before. The man vanished, and than a female voice, motherly and gracious, spoke.
"Do not be afraid. I and my Son will be with you always, even to the end."
May this story open those hearts closed to God and relieve and strength those hearts who are weak and weary from searching for God and rekindle the faith of those hearts who have stopped believing.
In addition to sharing the story of my conversion, I would like to share with you a possibility you might not have thought of: namely, the compatibility between God and man, prayer and action, faith and reason. Below is a little parody I wrote, which speaks about this possibility, and I hope that it helps you to better understand and love your fellow men who believe in God:
"A Christian loves God, himself and his fellow man. A Christian knows that heaven is something for which we should work now - here on earth - for all men together to enjoy. A Christian thinks that he can get help through prayer and that he must find in himself the inner conviction and strength to meet life, to grapple with it, to subdue, and enjoy it. A Christian thinks that only in a knowledge of God, a knowledge of himself and a knowledge of his fellow man can he find the understanding that will help to a life of fulfillment. Therefore, he seeks to know God, himself and his fellow man. A Christian knows that a hospital should be built just as a church may be built. A Christian knows that a deed must be done and a prayer must be said. A Christian strives for involvement in life and not escape into death. He wants disease conquered, poverty vanquished, war eliminated. He wants man to understand and love man. He wants an ethical way of life. He knows that we can rely on God and do both action and prayer and hope for an end to troubles now and in the hereafter. He knows that we are our brother's keeper and keepers of our lives; that we are responsible persons, that the job is here and the time is now."

You just strutted into the front room and crapped on the rug as if you were doing us all a favor.
BAD NICK. BAD!
(By the way, lately I've been using Suave® MENâ,,¢ 2IN1 DANDRUFF. It's cheap, it works, and it doesn't smell horrible, unlike what that reprehensible cur just did.)

Real men don't use shampoo, anyway. I use steel wool from a battleship, followed by mud from a Gettysburg, and wash it off from K2 meltwater. And that's only once a year, on Bastille Day.

Quote from: "Whitney"I wear mens shoes, they are wider than womens shoes and the arch is closer to where I need it to be in most of them. Then again, I was born with too many toes. Six on each foot. Probably why I'm an atheist. Mark of the beast and all that, you know. Anyway, they took the extras off when I was still an infant but my feet are still wider than average.Quote from: "Chimera"Why does it have to be about men's shampoo?

No one is addressing the real question here, it is what makes me so sick of this forum sometimes and all the people in it. You all go along, willfully ignoring the important stuff to talk about rubbish.
Why is no one talking about conditioner? I think we all know that debate about the merits of 2 in 1, or stand alone conditioner are well overdue, but no one ever talks about it, makes me sick.

I've been shaving off my pubic hair for about a month now. I like it. Masturbation feels better and it's easier to clean up. Haven't had a chance to try the real thing so far. Just wondering what thoughts the other manly men had on this? I use a manly electric shaver that works wet or dry. Highly recomended (http://www2.panasonic.com/consumer-electronics/support/Personal-Healthcare/Men-s-Shavers/model.ES4026NC). It's curved shape does not make it unmanly.

Do you not get ball stubble? That would seem to be a major drawback.
I trim to an appropriate length during the periods of time I consider myself likely to get sexed (ie all the time). Has the other advantage of making my genitalia look even more imposing and sculpted.

I find the stubble grows back most noticeably where a womanly woman would find it. The growth on the ballsack is negligible though uncomfortable to harvest due to the unmanly sensitivity of my ballsack and the manly aggressiveness of the Phillips shaver.
I advise you not to try and shape your pubic hair. None of the studs I see in porn videos do that. They just shave it off.

Not to mention the fact it makes it look ever-so-slightly bigger.
Unfortunately, once you start, you have to keep at it otherwise someone else may start to get stubble rash.

You take an electric shaver to your sac? That sounds horrifying. A regular razor is the way to go hands down. Slap bald nuts are aerodynamic as well as sanitary. Stubble will grow if not groomed regularly, but if groomed to often it will produce a dry or razor burn type of effect. I would recommend maybe every other day or a once in a while to shave dem nuts.
And I am in agreeance (<-- is that a word?) that sculpting shapes and designs out of ones pubes is utter insanity. Chicks do it, let it be theirs to hold and cherish.

The only true response here comes from Squid. And I agree 100% with him. I like it how he claims he was an atheist before 10 ... such ignorance is profound. Why do Christians feel they should use lies to convert people? Is their position so weak that they need to make shit up to "prove" the existence of their preferred deity?

It makes your hair softer and if your hair is longer than a few inches it helps make it more manageable. You can get shampoo+conditioner and not have to spend any more money. Or buy Suave and it will only cost you $1

Quote from: "SSY"No one is addressing the real question here, it is what makes me so sick of this forum sometimes and all the people in it. You all go along, willfully ignoring the important stuff to talk about rubbish.
Why is no one talking about conditioner? I think we all know that debate about the merits of 2 in 1, or stand alone conditioner are well overdue, but no one ever talks about it, makes me sick.
I think SSY, with his usual uncanny perspicacity, was waay ahead of you guys on this one. And I think that I'll have to agree with joeactor's succinct response:
Quote from: "joeactor"2 in 1 is a lie!
True, I use 2 in 1, but I'm not kidding myself that it's actually anything more than shampoo. If you don't go to the time and trouble of actually buying and using conditioner, than you only have yourself to blame if your hair isn't silky smooth and caressable. It's been years since anybody but sweet old ladies wanted to caress my hair, which is why I don't bother.

Maybe it depends on how long he's left it. Sometimes the only solution is to cull the lot and start afresh.
