(i believe reason and faith are antithetical; for that comment i feel a debate coming. . . .)

I think religion has been debated enough, nobody really wants to. Everyone has their opinions on this board, and its not going to change.

I don't think reason is completely antithetical to faith. Part of being reasonable is accepting how much you don't know and will never know. In that sense of reason, believing in God and the supernatural is perfectly reasonable. Although some religious dogmas are very unreasonable.

that wasn't me. it was actually the spirit of bob marley. he took over my body so that i could spread the good word of rastafarianism. if you don't believe me, look at this picture of me as him, helping out one of the newly enlightened bro's

[HaydenAsche]

Sweet! I wanna party with Marley!

[val-holla-ing]

it's cool. he's taking over my body this summer for his comeback tour, so you'll have a chance to come toke it up with I-N-I and all that mess. we'll be hitting all the frat houses in the country. there's a whole lotta liberating from the oppressor that is "dad" to be done.

what the fuck is a shitstem? is it similar to a fecalbranch? maybe a poolimb?

also, where did you hear that black people make up less than 10% of the american population? even in 2000 we were at more than 10%. maybe you're trying to help, but stop it. your overcompensation for people who may or may not have been your ancestors just makes you look like a bumbling fool.
