Contentment is beneficial, and some might think that striving to be popular is a necessity.
I personally do not feel the need to strive for and maintain popularity.
I would suggest that popularity is perhaps not the best way to maintain contentment.
Popularity is transient.
Reliable associations are perhaps better.
Interplay is essential.
Interpretation was arbitrary.
Still is.
I wonder if rednecks will still revere the Trumpian prophet 3500 years from now?
Better than the propaganda that religious organisations feed us.
Yes, mental health issues are a growing socio-psychological trend, relative to expectation, relative to data availability and associated technology.
Was Planet Earth ever a safe place for carbon based lifeforms?
What were they thinking...Sort of, sacrificial lambs to the evolutionary slaughter and the necessity of intellect.
Yes indeed.
For sure, intercoursal vibrations as the phallipsical cylinder fills the toroidian void or Volvo.
The ensuing influx of plasma is often referred to as the BIG BANG experience.
Attempts to reverse the process of plasma ejection risks it being sucked into an opposing toroidian blackhole.
Yes, fate undeniably, hopefully and gracefully has a metaphorical downwards spiral.
Better that than a downwards plummet at terminal velocity.
Christianity and Islam are popular derivations of Middle Eastern based mythical creation and existence hypotheses.
Which are not particularly popular beyond the Earths atmosphere.
In fact in the region known as the Vertrillion Sector, adherents to Tharg based ideology are estimated to number approximately 248 trillion.
And unsurprisingly, the central character of Thargian religion is a Tharggod, named Crouton.
Though, as you would probably guess there are varying derivatives...For example, the Lulu's who inhabit the small moon of Soup, worship Mandy the Holy Mother of Crouton; and it's religious leaders have a propensity for indulging in sexual activities with choir boys and girls...Such is quantum entanglement I suppose.
And yes, it goes without saying that Crouton snook up behind Mandy one night in a stable, whilst her boyfriend Alberto was busy tending to the Rhinoceroses.
There, I've said it now.
Moses was a basket case.
Yes, some people enjoy the company of cat's.
I enjoy the regular company of my dog and close family, and occasional interactions with other acquaintances.
Spontaneous interaction with strangers can either be rewarding or irksome, which depends wholly upon the strangers mission. Chit chat relative to the immediate occasion is fine, but vainglorious life stories and in depth health history is tedious and irksome.
Popularity and sycophancy is the need of the insecure.
I doubt that I was considering my levels of cleanliness at the time.
A key survival strategy.
I would suggest that the physical subtlety of the intrusion, does not necessarily lessen the intrusive nature of it's purpose.
Firstly, Arabia is a regional generalisation and for sure regional peoples have a tendency to be swarthy and dark haired, but not necessarily so.
But what is certain, is that none of us know what the characters Mary and Joseph looked like, and nor do we have any Idea who fathered Jesus.
And such Middle Eastern tales, suggest an unsettled people.
And what is also certain is that Faux's stylised representation of said mythical characters is as GG stated, based upon much later preferred European imagery. Supplanting old ideas and rituals was a common enough practice, which as I stated is why Christians celebrate the birth of their mythical mangod during the winter solstice rather than when he was actually born. Not that there is any definitive agreement on either the year or month in which he was born, though the month of September seems to be the best guess.
Anyway, today is November 20th, so still a month to go before the solstice celebrations.
That was just a seepage issue.
Has since been thoroughly cleaned and now smells as pure and fresh as a Nun's centre parting.
Two Nun's in the bath, and the one says, let me was away your sins Sister.
And the other replied, Holy mother of God OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOh yes yes yes.
I've seen the video.
I have no followers.
And that's just the way I like it.
@GreatfulGoy
Yes indeed.
Nowhere near swarthy enough to be a honest representation of semi-nomadic Arabian tribespeople.
My seasonal festivity cards will feature a cute little Robin perched in a holly bush, in accordance with the true pagan message of seasonal rebirth, happiness and good luck.
Nonetheless, it's only November 19th. and I refuse to start indulging in the materialistic hypocrisy that is Christmas. The guy was actually born in September.
I will discuss it with my therapist.
Do you know of any good therapists, that specialise in tacky droplet issues.
Crude maybe, but somewhat more realistic.
Tell that to Lucy
Lucy, read and be fearful, you risk your mum finding you slumped in your chair suffering from heatstroke, breathing difficulties, and mold.
It rhymed as per the requirements of the poetic genre.
I am capable of empathy, and perhaps sympathy at times.
Though quite often we are the architects of our own fate.
As I said, fanciful thought and fanciful ritual.
All separatist organisations however big or small, have a tendency to develop their own styles of ritualism and exclusivity.
Well that explains where Christians et al got their sin and repentance ideas from.
Was the f**king Egyptians.
Not that I didn't already know that.
Link doesn't work for me either.
So I'll just leave it, and conclude that no one really knows what even stephven is referring to.
Yes, you are young and therefore generationally accepting of technological progress. I was born and conditioned previously, so I see monitoring as intrusive and invasive. Nonetheless, I am fully aware of the evolutionary necessity for change, whether that be a purposeful necessity or just simply an evolutionary inevitability.
My bathing/showering habits are dictated by exercise routines and seasonality.
And not dictated by social whimsey and media advertising.
