    That comment about monks reminded me of what one of my sister's friend said when they were about 6 years old. She had gotten a Barbie motor home for Christmas. Her comment was, "I cried real tears for this."

    You've written some truly stupid stuff in this forum, but this is pure, unadulterated ignorance.


    It reminds me of Trump saying "Hey, I'm not racist. I eat Taco Bell twice a week."

    Look at my original post on the topic and explain to me how it was incorrect.

    You are incapable of such a request because you are led by the demonic presence in your heart.

    Look, I'll cut you some slack here because I know its not Retard on the other end...

    I'm not boasting, it;s just the way the conversation went.

    This young Gese La, some 20 years old was held in high respect by a Buddhist monk friend of mine. I had read much about Tibetan Buddhism and was excited but also a bit apprrehensive. Not scared,but just worried i would not be impressed the way I would expect to be.

    When I did meet him I was genuinely overjoyed as I looked into his eyes and he into mine- both equals but yet very different. But I was even more relieved that the actual guy lived upto the myth my mind had created.

    So whose Bill Graham?

    Trump-style behaviour is becoming the norm more and more.

    Sounds like you've been reading too many harlequin romances.

    I don't need to read about how you looked into another guys eyes and how you reacted.

    Only when they show, deduce or explain does it become teaching.

    What is taught in the bible if anything?
    http://www.thevillagechurch.net/sermon/is-sex-before-marriage-always-sinful/


    The Bible teaches that sex outside the marriage of a man and a woman is evil.

    What can you extrapolate from this truth?

    We exist in a very evil culture and that an individual would do well to reject this cultures values concerning sex.

    Just think of all the social problems that would be solved.

    No it doesn't.

    It might say that ... but it doesn't teach it.

    If you read it and believe it, then you learned it by reading the Bible.

    Play word games with your definition of taught all you like.
