Yuku free message boards

Just stopping by to say hello and that I miss ET. The European posters at YAP are great company for me bc I keep weird hours sometimes. I came by a good while ago to do that, but all the threads seemed too serious for a hi then.

Anyway, I was thinking how fun and interesting it would be if ET were posting at YAP again during the primary and election seasons, so I thought that I would try again. And, here I am.

Sooo, just hi and sorry ET does not have econ to kick around any more. This thread seems okay to disrupt to that extent (or so I hope)?

But, I have an on topic part to this post as well. Both Sponge Bob Squarepants and Teletubbies emotes are always good to have handy for when neo theos accuse them of existing for the purpose of turning America's toddlers gay. At least, I have made good use of them on those occasions. Then again, I am an emote addict.

Oh, and I am a Christian, just not a neo theo. (Tough being a believer and a Dem on a message board. Catch it from all sides, she whined. )

Shout out to Die, too, although I see her elsewhere once in a while.

Have a great 2008.

On edit: Oops. I did not read your rules before posting. If I broke six of them saying hello, though, I'm sorry.

Good grief! I don't know how you've managed to survive.

I do find it hard to lose Dem friends or to be attacked by Dems simply for believing in God. I respect atheism as much as I respected all other religions while I was an atheist. I don't try to convert anyone.

I argue religion mostly only with other Christians about things like persecution of gays, theocracy, condemnation, etc., all of which are abhorrent to me. I think all give Christianity and Christians a bad name. (I argue those issues mostly with Bible verses, bc I think that is the only way to argue with those who try to use the Bible as a weapon to beat up on others.)

Thanks for posting, and stop by any time.

Thank you. I appreciate it. I've been cutting back on posting. (In an election year, it--okay, I--can get out of hand, to the detriment of both my RL and my sanity.)

If it seems too serious, feel free to chime in with something to lighten it up. I always appreciate that

I cherish humor, too. That is one of the reasons I miss ET. That and his liberalism (by American standards, anyway). Unfortunately, I am good at it only on rare occasions. Sigh. Earnestness is about my only strong suit and earnestness is not at all amusing, apart from The Importance of Being Earnest, that is. Born a few centuries too late, I was.

Best wishes.
