I pray that your thyroid dies and you go at least a year before you figure it out.
Losing weight? How you ask?
Well I ran into a Greek young lady who is teaching some recipes to me. Greek food is much more like family meals the way they used to be in the US. Finnish woman gave me an idea about some wonderful health oatmeal for breakfast.
Now that I have sufficiently recovered from my last school year, I am finding that doing a bit of working out is manageable.
I do not think the volume of food has changed. Instead of pop I am drinking water. Instead of hamburgers and fries I have Greek salad.
Yep, Christians are much like most people. If you treat them like crap they are likely to revert back to a natural response which is to give back in kind.
Of course I do not see you trying to respond you your ilk. Seems to me you could go a long way if being happier if you were not a bigot and treated people equally.

Life-changing diets are more than a fad, they require a lifestyle change to stick.
The best diet in the world can still be enhanced with exercise, they go hand-in-glove.
I hope you stick with it. You'll thank yourself later.
When we are all at each other's throats over issues like this, it will be no different than a political conversation or anything, right...
So Christians will start to look like enemies...
We have this problem as debaters...
If you're a hammer, everything starts to look like a nail; if you are a debater, everything starts to look like a debate. And in a debate there is always some sort of 'opponent,' right.
As a result... we end up looking at other people in these discussions as our 'opponents,' and everything that we are saying as a debate instead of as a discussion.
I hope for everyone's sake that we do not take this too much to heart and that we can learn to be better people to each other.

This is a bit rich coming from someone who singled out Romans1009 - of all people - as the best poster on this forum.

How does an atheist see past your torturing in hell for eternity version of Jesus in order to be saved?
Fifth bump for KellyJay.
I’m really sorry that I’m not bumping this at a time when you can see it KJ, it’s all my fault and I’m sure you are not deliberately avoiding the question because you would never do that.
