I did egg and it figured me out HOLY COW SINCE WHEN DID THIS THING HAVE OVER 10,000 REPLIES???

Guess not. Anyone got things to think of for 20 Questions in French?

So is everyone caught up with the antics of ISIS? Do you think they're a direct threat to America yet? Should we be bombing them like we are?

I suggest we continue this elsewhere or drop it. People are gonna get mad at us again

Playing 20 questions for French homework. Suggestions?

Haha! Guess I deserve that. Though now I've no reason NOT to call you Elizabeth

Mine was like Silver's. 100 questions. If you got 10 wrong, you're done

Mind if I ask what said part was about? I'm curious as to how your test compares to mine

Way to go Elizabeth Neko. I got 95 Now all you gotta do is drive for hours on end and take your road test.

Happy birthday, Daniel Elizabeth, I hope you made sure to wish someone a lot closer a happy birthday too Jeez... My exhaustion cough from yesterday's race still hasn't gone away

Wow... Slow day today. Though you know what wasn't slow? My race today. Granted I died in the second mile, but my first and third were awesome

Yum... I want fudge. There were brownies after cross country practice today, but I had to leave early. But hey, I get crêpres in French Club tomorrow!

The discussion has been relocated. Worry not.

I said "That's not absolutely true. He may be someone like you or me"

Ce n'est pas absolument vrai. Il peut-être une personne comme toi ou moi

I do apologize. But the pain she left me with has to go somewhere. There are cat eyes drawn all over my arm signifying I can't go anywhere without her. It's because I cared about her so much that I do this. My brightest light went dark and has been consuming me from the inside out. I've tried, but no other light strong enough will enter my life to save me yet. Until then, I have to fight. I've tried to make amends, to seal the darkness away, or to negotiate with it, but that hasn't worked yet either. If either of you two wish to continue discussion with me, I request we bring it elsewhere.

I have chosen to refer to her by her first name for several reasons. She was chosen to be the Elizabeth of her generation. A family tradition. She should wear the name with pride, or live up to the name she goes by. Until then, I cannot adhere to your request.

Is Elizabeth caring about other girls if even for a split second??? On a side note: shipshipshipship Different people can pull of different outfits different ways. I look great with a scarf (worn the right way), but terrible with a baseball cap, for example.

As in the Wendy's ice cream treat? Or a shaved ice like dessert?

Isn't that that one show that brings a bunch of fairy tails together?

... Anyone else having a slow day?

Bananas. Otherwise know as POTASSIUM BOMBS

Now, my audience here is mostly questioning Christians. If you're atheist or anything, or not one for Christianity, I suggest you leave. Or not. This is mostly for myself to strengthen my own faith, but also to maybe spread the truth to those yet to be saved. But what does it mean to be "saved"? A lot of people have a lot of explanations. Some say you have no choice, whether or not you go to heaven or hell has been predetermined. From an omnipresent and omniscient perspective, yes that is true; but in our dimension, our perspective: the scales are constantly tipping one way or another. On that note: some say you have to live a life of good deeds, helping the poor, avoiding sin (and that can be defined as ANYTHING against the rules given in particularly the New Testament—though some have lost significance) and loving thy neighbor, yada yada. Well here's the truth, or as I like to call it, the Truth. "If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved." (‭Romans‬ ‭10‬:‭9-10‬ NIV). Faith is what gets you Grace. But what are those two? To understand Grace, you need to understand mercy and justice. When you commit a crime, you go to court and face trial. If all goes as it should, you face punishment. Justice. Now... What if the judge said something along the lines of "Well, this is your first offense, I'll let you off this time." That's mercy. Now you commit crime after crime, you can't stop yourself, but you're never throne into jail to deserve the punishment you deserve. Grace. We're only human. We will mess up in life. One of the turn-offs of Christianity is all the impossible to follow rules. You see, the thing is, God is perfect, and in the beginning, he created us in his image and likeness. We were replicas of a perfect deity. When we (Adam and Eve) disobeyed, they were made imperfect. These "impossible rules" of Christianity are only possible for God. A Christian's job is to their best to act and live in God's image and likeness. Though it's beyond difficult for a human to be like a God that is holy—separate from their known world. That's why God gave us a guideline. His Son. Christ. Jesus of Nazareth. Christ was God made flesh. He came to teach people of His Father and His plan's for His people, His Kingdom to come. He told stories that helped put this paradise into perspective, but warned of damnation to those who resented Him and His Father. Many people, Christiana and otherwise, fear a tortuous death. This is commonly known as Hell. We are imperfect, sinful human beings. We have shamed God and deserve damnation. He have commit crime after crime and can't stop ourselves, but where is the Judge's—God's—verdict, retribution. We have commit crime after crime and deserve the strictest of punishment, a single man stepped in. He accepted everyone's punishment. He had done absolutely nothing wrong, but he chose to be punished in our place. Even the people who nailed him so painfully to that cross, he held nothing against them. He accepted our punishment. That is Grace. We don't deserve it. It is a gift that we must accept. But how? "If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved." Belief. That is faith. Belief with no concrete, real assurance that all will go well. You have faith in the bed you sleep in that it won't collapse beneath you, don't you? Have faith. Remember all those bothersome rules? Look back to Christ. He was such an awesome dude who loved everyone, and hated or resented no one. If you look up to him, you'll want to mimic him. Then all those rules sort of come naturally. Just have faith. You want Grace? If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. Grace.

When you have something long to say, especially in a post, try typing it in notes in advance, then copy and paste.

Hey, has anyone noticed that a certain character has been rather silent lately? The following comment implies no malice or arrogance and is merely a means of expressing my concern in a cheerful, comedic way Matt, did I scare off your girlfriend or something?
