	Hi. 43 yrs., atheletic , professional man would like to talk/meet
	an intelligent women through this newsletter. Although, this BB
	does not seem to be the right place to seek friendship, I am sure
	that there are women out there who would cut through the garbage,
	and seek to write to the sailing in the same boat, I mean seeking

	More about me .  I am from the land of Karma, Kundalini & Kamasutra
	( my favourite ! ), a reader, chess & tennis player. A good cook
	and a lover of PCC, that is good taste & good food. Was married for
	7 yrs., respectfully seperated with mutual consent ( pretty rare,
	I am told ? ) and living as hermit for last 2 yrs. Down-to-earth,
	fully conciuos of my weaknesses & strenghts now. I would like to
	meet a lady  in 30s. with no extra-ordinary qualities but a flare
	for life, its blessings & limitations. If you NS, NSTD and ready
	for a clean hyperbolic relationship, please write me ASAP.

Sheesh.  I thought I was being tortured when I received email from old

pointed out that I thought the ORIGINAL poster was being unclear in his
wording.  "Sold on Jesus" is one thing, but "SOLD OUT" is something quite
different.  I told him I didn't want to start a grammar/spelling flame,
but you have to be a LITTLE careful.

Being Christian is fine.  Go ahead.  Just don't come knocking on my door,

I think Crystal was pretty-much joking.  After a period of annoying postings

	I have been called to task on what is seen as a "flaw" in my post.
I imagined that I had made it perfectly clear that I meant all zealots,
not just the religious variety. I have in fact read a post that attacked
the evangelists and bemoaned the lack of young women on the 'group. I see
these attacks as being as pointless and irrelevant (even if I sympathize
with them) as the Christian-oriented stuff. If you don't like someone's
beliefs, oh non-evangelists out there, I think you should just ignore them
or send them angry mail, because everyone who reads it will say "I agree,"
"that person is a satanist," or "that person is a windbag."

Better yet why not just add the offending (in each person's opinion) person or persons
to your KILL file.?  You get what you want - a fairly flame/noise free environment and
those who chose to keep charing and screaming can do so.

That's too bad.  Jesus taught that Christians should _not_ keep their faith
a secret or hidden.  I believe what Ambassador is doing is consistent with
this teaching.  It sounds to me that if any Christian says _anything_ to
you about what he or she believes that contradicts something you believe
that you interpret it as having something shoved down your throat.

And just to add another thought, Jesus "shoved" his teaching down the throats
of the Pharisees and high priests because they were wrong in what they were
teaching and misusing the temple of God.  He pulled no punches in that regard.
He also dealt with anybody who would claim they "had the truth" and was trying
to deceive folks with their teaching in the same way.  You can't claim that
He was just a nice guy and offended nobody and therfore anybody that follows
Him should do likewise.  We are called to share the good news that you can be
reconciled to God through what he did for you and not keep our mouths shut.

Oh boy, a people pile!  Does anybody know of any other advanced sins?
In my RC youth, they believed in "security through obscurity" and wouldn't
give details on the things they didn't like, but named them "lust",
"impurity", "carnality", and the like.  It was difficult to know, as a
result, for purposes of attaining absolution via the Sacrament of Penance
(I, believe it or not, took certain parts of religion very seriously),
just what activity fell under one or another of the above categories.

Unusual Personality.  You:

tend to make friends, not enemies, and to smile, not strike out;
are easygoing and relaxed, but full of life, not lethargic or lazy;
enjoy others' different beliefs, looks, & abilities, without feeling superior;
are reasonably happy already, not tormented, but you hope for even more;
like hard work, as well as play and easy time for your spirit;
have balance and enjoy expressing your many sides to yourself & others;
are confident enough to make good, intuitive decisions about our lives.

Unusual Mind.  You:

are smart enough to make good logical decisions about our lives;
are articulate both verbally and on paper;
have at least one strong interest in a challenging field;
enjoy learning from others as well as on your own; you needn't always be right;
are curious and openminded about people and the world.

Unusual Body.  You:

are medium-sized or small, maybe even delicate-boned;
have a reasonably pretty face, alert and intelligent-looking.

Unusual Maturity.  You:

don't mind material comfort a bit, but know it's not worth big sacrifices;
are experienced enough to settle down readily, but not desperate to do so;
want to be a safe, deeply peaceful, home to your partner's heart, and have one;
want children; may not know when, but sense it just takes finding the right man;
enjoy your sexuality, but not promiscuously or to the exclusion of other joys.

If there's anyone out there who comes close, even, please get in touch!
What I'm looking for tells you a lot about my values.

Jay, I do have admit that you sound very tolerant to me, not the sort of
person to make nasty remarks about how people chose to live their lives,
regardless of how they impact your personal beliefs.  

I hated to post because I then would be caught in the "let's call 
people names don't do what we think they should do" loop.  While you 
have not SAID ALOUD "self centered.....asshole" to someone as opposed 
to the xtian that told you were going to hell for being catholic, 
you have posted the very same intolerant attitude in a public forum.
And that is what has irritaed me about this whole thing.  Yes, the
xtians that posted posted inappropriately, I feel.  But every 
counter-nasty-barbed post that came after that was just as intolerable
as their posts against gays and non-xtians.  

So, now I will go back to lurking.  As you will note, all follow-ups
are to alt.flame.  I don't subscribe to it but it is more appropri- 
ate for these kinds of posts.

And, Crystal (whom I know will be reading this), while I did think that
the nun thing was funny, I think its downfall was the timing (after a
week of xtian bashing).
