I forget a lot of things. I never realized that made me such a great guy.

Me too. We had a small Church that was literally less than a 5 minute walk from my house and the minister lived right across the street.

I started falling away as my life got ****tier and ****tier to the point of a failed suicide attempt when I was 13. As part of trying to get myself back on track I did a very serious read of the bible from cover to cover. After digesting it all I made the absolute decision that it was a load of wishful thinking, along with a few good moral lessons, and a whole lot of hate, fear, revenge, and shaming wrapped up in fairy tales.

Bought a guitar at 14, learned how to rock, and voila', I was saved.

Music is truth. Music is life.

I read the Bible cover to cover many times. It was the only book in the cell.

So Chula, is what you're really trying to say that we should be going to rock concerts instead of church? Cause if so I wholeheartedly agree.

Concerts, clubs, coffee houses, or just slap on Pink Floyd with a good set of cans. It's all good.

Hell's probably a lot cooler than heaven. I hear butt stuff isn't allowed up there.

I wonder if the whole eve stealing the aplle thing is an analogy for fisting and squeezing someone's prostate. Speed makes me think odd things.

Well, yeah but that still doesn't answer my question. Actually, I'd like to know a couple things. I've compiled a detailed list:
  1. Am I pitching
  2. Is Beelzebub a dude
  3. Are there hot Asian chicks if he is
  4. Lube

Getting butt****ed =/= pitching
Satan's whatever you don't want him to be, baby
Probably no lube except for what you can sweat out
I'm sure there are ladies of all races sharing hell with us

Well, that settles it then. Thanks for clearing this whole mess up. I'm off to do things.
