Not just any fast food joint.... Chick-Fil-A, home of the Original Chicken Sandwich.
At Chick-Fil-A, our corporate purpose is "To glorify God by being a faithful steward of all that is entrusted to us and to have a positive influence on all of those that come in contact with Chick-Fil-A."

He's got enough guilt already to start his own religion.

That's not true. Everything that will hurt you or people who care about you is a no-no.

I was thinking more along the lines of he should become a flat out heathen for a number of years and then find God in his late 20's - provided he makes it that far. That appears to be the way a lot of people do it.

Perhaps he should rephrase his statement "Everything I want to do is a no no" ;)

JB- Can you give us some examples? What is it that you want to do that's a "no-no"?
If you lobotomize yourself it's an ok life. Just don't ask any questions.

everything! you can't look at naked ladies, you can't have sex, you can't even think about it!
you can't get even with someone, you suppose to "above that" and be perfect and forgive and forget.
so, what are some examples of things that you can do?

Once you're married, you can do that all you want, and totally guilt-free...
(as long as it's your wife you're looking at :naughty: )
you can't get even with someone, you suppose to "above that" and be perfect and forgive and forget.
You know why? Because God can get people in ways we can't even begin to. To get even with someone ourselves is letting them off easy.

Weeeeeellllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll, you could always move to some remote part of Utah, become a Mormon, and marry tons of ladies at one time and be a polygamist ;) . . A few devout Mormons still practice that last I heard . .

If there are, it's very few. Polygamy has been illegal in Utah for decades.

Spending your life worrying about getting even is an awfully good way to fuck it up.

True. The best revenge is living well.

this has been denounced by the morman church...however going to poor countries and exploiting them for the purposes of conversion (medicine for conversion) is encouraged..Also they are against multi racial relationships and they have completely managed to integrate church and state in an entire state. so I completely condone hatin' on the mormons. carry on

You can have all the sex you want when it's within the boundaries of marriage. When you're truly and totally committed, that's the best sex you'll ever have, because it's more than just physical, it's emotional and spiritual as well.

You're right- we're not supposed to take revenge. We leave that up to God. He's the judge, not us.
and be perfect
But we certainly don't have to be perfect- we can't be! It's impossible! We are all sinners- even the best Christians are. God only expects us to do our best, and to be sincerely striving to be better.
and forgive and forget.
Yes- we are supposed to forgive. But that doesn't mean we have to forget, and it doesn't mean that we have to let them do it to us again. "Forgive and Forget" doesn't mean that you become a door mat and let people walk all over you and treat you like crap. It mean that you need to forgive them, give it over to God, and then move on with your life.
I can tell you from experience that when you don't forgive and forget, you're only hurting yourself, not the other person. While you're stewing away and being pouty and having your pity party, the other person has forgotten all about it, or has no idea what you're feeling, and probably doesn't care! By forgiving you're taking them off your hook (so to speak) and putting them onto God's. That allows you to move on with your life.
I had a girlfriend, my BEST friend at one time, who hurt me several times really bad. I have forgiven her, but I am no longer friends with her. I'm not going to put myself in the position to let her hurt me that way again. I haven't completley forgotten, but I don't dwell on it anymore and I have no hard feelings towards her.
