Eros, will you be there?

[JohnTBap]

Oh man. I seem to have lost my MAP TO THE BACK BUTTON.

Well, here goes nothing:

EROS dies and is met at the Pearly Gates by St. Peter. "Welcome," says Peter, "So THAT'S what you look like! I've been wondering all this time! Wait here, please, God himself would like to speak with you."

Unfortunately, EROS knows not what to do - there is no keyboard present and consequently no or BIG RED PRINT so he has no choice but to wait as requested.

Almost immediately God arrives and says, "Welcome HOME."

EROS faints dead away - physician, heal thyself! - only to wake up a short time later.

Believe it or not, for the first time in his life, EROS is rendered speechless.

"Not to worry, my son," says God, "I can see in your heart and know that you finally believe. I saved the gift of faith until after your death, and yet you lived as though you had faith all along. You eased the suffering of your fellow man. That is the greatest use of your life. Well done, my good and faithful servant, well done. "

Well, I guess I'm not so sure why my first response to this thread is considered hijacking

I thought when all the information and there was a ton of it, was posted that opinions and such would be expected. Maybe I didn't word it like I should have, but

Was it because the title was adressed to EROS? Maybe he was the only one who was supposed to respond. Or maybe only athiests were to respond?

I apologize again.

JTB, my DW would surround you with hugs after reading your sweet post .

CRB, we've had our differences, but I PERSONALLY feel that you have nothing to apologize for on this thread. I applaud your HONESTY . Your RIGHTEOUS tone is no different than the fire and brimstone, hell and damnation sermons of the last 1000 years. When the Spanish missionaries converted the Pagans of the New World, they offered the "carrot" of eternal life through Jesus Christ.........and the "stick" of eternal hellfire. Hey, it worked .

Be true to yourself ........

Thank you EROS.

I just don't want anyone to think this was a personal insult. Just my belief that I worded poorly. Other than that, I was pretty true to myself.

Everything is a learning experience. Everything happens for a reason.

I also see no reason why CRB#33 has anything at all to apologize for!!!! But of course those looking to be offended will also find something thatis offensive.

 

[EROS]

BOB, you're a good judge of "character". Which of these two sweethearts would you REALLY want to search for contraband if the situation was exigent???

 

[browneyes]

If I attend, I have a perfect outfit in mind .......not to worry, the sword is plastic

It took a minute for the pic to download. I thought your outfit consisted of a plastic sword and nothing else.

EROS, i would perfer to search the picture you have on page one of this thread for contraband!!!
Of the two choices you just gave i would say the second one, the first one has more hiding places due to the clothing and it would be harder to find weapons which could be a officer safety issue!!

Just read the first couple of lines and it reminded me of eros, I thought when I got home tonight I'd see a couple of pics of Heidi on it.....what a surprise....

 

[Poohbear123]

So does that mean HEIDI is the DEVIL? At least in EROS's mind.....
