dunno, i plan on trying to learn to play the saxophone, probably i will have a football team of children, so we'll play soccer together, eleven a side, maybe ill get into micro biology looking at the microcosm, maybe ill get into astronomy an get into the macrocosm, with a mere 70 or eighty years one never reaches ones potential, its simply a question of hello and goodbye. Life is so fleeting.

this may sound daft but its a serious point that i was trying to get out in another thread. is it possible to play football in heaven? ive been told (im not sure if this is your understanding of the conditions after judgement day or other christians) that there is no pain or sadness. i cant see how its possible to play without pain or sadness. the same for art, art is impossible without pain and sadness.

I think ill refrain, if you dont mind, all these personal questions are making me uncomfortable.

personally speaking i find it strange that you become so uncomfortable when it comes to your personal opinions. isnt speaking on behalf of ourselves where we should be most comfortable?

Dude can we leave me out of it, i dont like to get personal, can we not just discuss something objectively, something other than me?

no problem, but dont ask me any more personal questions if it doesnt work both ways, treat others as you wish to be treated.

oh and dont share personal information about yourself if its not okay for people to ask about it.

the paradise is earthly, not in heaven, like this earth being restore to a paradise? art is impossible without pain or sadness is the kind of statement one expects from an art school lecturer. I remember one telling me, there is no right or wrong answers in art, there is only right questions, I felt like jumping up and slapping the old hippy on the side of the head, enough of your eastern mysticism you dolt, if there are no right answers then why are we searching for solutions, but being a wuss, i smiled benignly.

Do you think art recognises emotions of pain or sadness?

I will share personal information if i feel its appropriate.

maybe for you, not for me. I find it easier to discuss something entirely unrelated to be honest.

Uncomfortable?! I'm asking you a question related to a claim you have made on this forum, I would hardly call it 'personal'. If I was enquiring about your sex life, now that would be personal.

talking about art is not talking about you personally, there is a difference. But if you are unwilling, then i respect your privacy.

Can we not talk about cricket instead? You like cricket, dont you? I feel its like its an interrogation.

its asking for my personal opinion. like when i ask you your personal opinion about homosexuality and you respond 'dont ask me personal questions' and you asking me where i studied art, when i asked you a similar question 'dont ask me personal questions'. you seem happy to take but not give. this doesnt work for me, im going to have to break up with you robbie, its not you - its me okay? dont cry, there's plenty more atheists in the sea.

yesterday i received an unexpected personal message, i will reproduce the sentiments, not verbatim, just so you can get the gist of it, Why do you put up with these idiots? They are not humble, nor care...I suggest ignore them. I only respond to sensible inquiries, not the lunacy.

Isn't revealing the content of a personal message, that has derogatory things to say about fellow member of this community, 'making it personal'? Aren't you supposedly against making it personal? And why haven't you dismissed this anonymous person's point of view as a 'meaningless and irrelevant' opinion, like you usually do?

robbie is voluntarily taking one on the credibility chin by fibbing resolutely about this attending-life-drawing-classes-the-majority-of-his-day-times thing rather than face up to the scriptural "adultery" implications of his injudicious revelation about himself on page 1.
