I haven't read anything more than the title, but imo piercings look bad other than single earlobe pierces and I generally look at people with them more negatively than other people. As in I really don't ACTUALLY care, but my first thought when I see someone with a nose piercing is far more likely to be "****ing ******" than "they look nice."

Evolution is a theory, not a fact.



I think Penn Jillette who is a famous atheist makes a good point in regards to your comment:

Evolution has already been proven in multiple instances, a key one being the sea slug who has learned how to perform photosynthesis.

also, bit delayed on the tattoo (my Dad's the artist and since we weren't rushing it he decided to do it when my brother comes down to get his)

Spread your fingers apart and look at the webbing in between, we are the only homo genus species that has this feature, because we developed it over the years.

Huh? That isn't proving it, that's just providing evidence for it. I'm Catholic but I believe in the theory of evolution, even the most recent pope says you can be Catholic and believe in the theory of evolution.

And growing up I went to a Catholic school, and they taught us about the theory of evolution and Charles Darwin in Science class. Even my religion teacher believed in the theory of evolution (he never confirmed this, but he always would say that "God set up an entire line of dominos and by pushing one of them, he started a chain of things when time began".

The Bible isn't a history book. It's a book of stories. Stories that teach us about morality and how things came to be. The Creation Story of Adam and Eve tells us how sin came to be, why women experience pain at child birth, why we aren't just born to be in Heaven, and how Satan (in the form of a serpent) is always trying to persuade us to turn against God.

The story of Cain and Abel shows how murder came to be. When Cain killed his brother, murder and death entered into the world. We also know Cain killed his brother out of jealousy.

The Bible is not meant to be a history book. Even the New Testament doesn't tell us much about Jesus's personal life. We only read about what he taught and what he said.

I could be saying the wrong stuff and just setting myself up for eternity in hell, but that's what I believe.

I'm gonna get a small tattoo on my lower back that says "Andy". He was the love of my life; he died on Dec 27th, 2013

I would never do that!

I'm Catholic and have watched documentaries explaining how evolution of our consciousness happened so suddenly, it's near impossible for something that's more complex then anything in our universe (to our knowledge) to have been birthed naturally. But honestly, the endless number of sins you're never supposed to do is unrealistic such as erm.. touching yourself XD. It's human nature and.. yeah... damn. awkward. >///<

A theory with overwhelming evidence to support it, yes. What's your point?


My point is it's not a fact. A theory is a theory.

Do you know how many people have spent their lives in prison because there was an overwhelming amount of evidence to say they're guilty, but now are finding they were innocent because of DNA. Overwhelming evidence means nothing unless you can 100% prove it. Google innocent project.

What are you talking about the Bible isn't a history book? The Bible is a canonical collection of texts sacred in Judaism and Christianity.

The Old Testament has Jewish lineage that no historian would dispute. It's funny because they use to say King David never existed since only the Old Testament mentioned him, but then archaeologist found tons of evidence.

The New Testament in the 4 gospels it talks about Jesus. Again, historians, Jews, Muslims, none of them deny the existence of Jesus. They may deny His deity, but not his existence.

The Bible IS a history book, that is 100% facts. Many many people throughout history have tried to disprove information in the Bible, but have always been unsuccessful. I've taken world religion, and you can find things that can disprove parts of most religions except the Bible.

You're so deep man, I guess there are no facts in life only varying levels of theories. Mind = blown.

Mentioning history in the middle of supernatural bull**** does not mean the Bible is more correct. I don't deny that the Bible has stories about actual events, but I think we can all guess which parts are make believe.

Isn't it nice that you can be disrespectful and tell a Christian his beliefs are bull*** and he/she will still be friendly ;)

Go draw a picture of Mohammad and give it to a Muslim and see what happens.

Are you the good Christian guy who does everything correct and thinks ISIS and Taliban are Muslims? Yeh.

I like piercings, especially on girls, but when it's not overdone, otherwise it's not looking so good.
That Vieper lips thing goes well on you, are you going to do another one?
