God Bless America.

I hate "clever bumperstickers" I shuld print a stcker that says "Asinine Attempt at Being Profound"

*raises an eyebrow*

dude...i know theres alot of stupid bumper stickers out there....but sometimes its the problem that many misread them...for one...it not physicaly saying compare God's size to the problems...there saying that his importance is above such worldly nonesense...so what if your in debt...so is many others including me...but we do not let it get in the way of our lives...do you really think God is some hulking massive figure? thats another misconception...he doesn't need a hulking physical form... his power is beyond the need of a physical form...why do you think many call him the the almighty? the all knowing...i'm a christian...and a goth...go ahead...make fun of me...i gone through worse problems then you could ever imagine doral...but i do not mock the help of others even if its a poorly thought of bumper sticker....human beings have there own comfort zones...but does not give the right for anyone else to smack the idea around...also...in life...you have to get off your ass sometimes to solve our problems...God only lends a hand when he see's fit...

if God took care of everysingle lil bump and rock we walk into...we wouldn't be very responsable human beings...and would of destroyed ourselves long ago...

no...this isn't a flame...or some pathetic form of preaching...its my two cents of how the world goes...and hopefully it will help you too...if you do not want it...its fine...i hope things go better for you...

"...i gone through worse problems then you could ever imagine doral"

You know what? Assuming that you have a monopoly on bad times in this modern world that we live in today is not only asnine, it's pretty damn egotistical. I'm not saying that you haven't survived hard times, but to assume that others haven't had as bad a time as you is pretty damn arrogant.

the point is...my problems and everyone else...doesn't matter...arrogant? you follow anyone that whines and crys yet you call others arrogant for giving a reality check and a hint of support?...stop being so soft on others...they need strength not a crutch like your trying to pull with me...

I didn't say that your or anyone elses problems don't matter, I'm saying that assuming that you've had a harder life then anyone (assuming" being the key word here) is pretty jerk-ish. Now before that gets read out of context, I'm noy calling you or anyone else a jerk. I agree with you on people having to solve their own problems, but disagree on the whole God part. By the way I'm not being soft on others, nor I'm I providing them with a crutch. Personally, if given half a chance, I'd kill every human being on the planet, including myself. And to anyone that says that I should just go ahead and kill myself, no thanks I want some company.

so your only saying it cause i mentiond God? who cares? if you disagree say it then... don't beat around the bush man i'm not supressing your thoughts dude...if ya don't have the same beliefes that fine man
i have no problem with that...evryone has free will why do you think i said in the end of my comment...either take it or don't...its all good i dun force things on others like beliefes i simply say it...if they accept it cool! if not... still cool...i think we should stop replying to each other on dorals journal its kinda cluttering up everything...feel free to send a note...

Nah, I'm only saying it because of the quote in my first reply. That's the only thing that got me. I personally don't really care about what people's beliefs are, I've long learned to accept them all in good faith. I'm agnostic personally. The middle ground between those who believe in God Almighty and those who believe religion as a whole is nothing but a money scheme. Not really part of the discussion I know. Just my own tendency to ramble on and on. Love your art by the way.

You're going over the top with it. Doral never once said his problems are bigger than anyone else's. He was merely commenting on the bumper sticker being stupid and that people shouldn't rely on God to solve problems that a belief system can't solve. All's it is is burying your head in the ground and hoping for things to go away, and chances are, they won't.

Absolutely nothing to do with the severity of his problems.

*smiles*

Hon, I'm not having any problems. In fact, my life is very good right now. :) I was being sarcastic for sarcastic sake. 'Twas a joke, really, with a side of wisdom. Satire, if shitty. :P

Don't worry-- I know ALL the Christian metaphors and catch-phrases and what they really mean. I went to a Catholic school for 12 years of my life. I know more about Christianity than most Catholics.

I know what the sticker meant. Clearly it's a motivational phrase, akin to "I can do all things through God, who strengthens me." :)

*hugs* glad you understand^^

yup god's one cool all powerful omnipotant being. that's why i like to try to stay on his good side. i find things go a hellovalot better fer me.

Personally I always found the "All unattended children will be kidnapped and sold into slavery" sticker to be a bit offensive, yet still funny. I really loved the "Stop tail-gating my house" sticker I saw on a winabago yesterday.

i dunno liveing close enought to baltimore to catch their radio stations leads me to belive that it may be true....there's a freaking amber alert every 15 or so minutes. it makes me sad it really does.

I saw your drawing prior to reading this journal...so it's entertaining to me, to think...hey! that drawing is oddly correlative to...this...oh, well damn, now i feel stupid!

so yeah. it's always fun when stuff like that happens.

and doral...you should realise by now, that if you have the mental capacity to realise your problems sourses, and decide on appropriate actions...there is no fucking god. he has vanished like mist in the desert. god is the helping hand to those who are incapable of supporting themselves.

so just be proud that you are independant of the big brother that doesn't even exhist.

Clearly, I hate bumper stickers period.
in my opinion, its a waist of money and some of them r just real stupid... and guess what, a broken bumper by the side walk near my house has a bumper sticker that says *road king* ... "my ass, then why is a chunk of yer car on the side of the walk way?!! " Y'know people r funny!

(Raises eyebrow) O...k.

In a generation that tries too hard to be clever and witty, it is inevitable to see stupid things like that. Speaking of stupid things, check out another "clever" saying:

"1 tree. 4 guys in white robes. A rope. A black guy. Some assembly required"




Some people should not be allowed to swim in the gene pool.

Actually that one is rather hilarious, not because of its content, but because should that vehicle ever visit any state north of Virginia or west of Texas, whoever is driving it will likely never see the light of day again.

Heh, true.

Actually, I found that in a blog. I kinda chuckled at how the guy said it bluntly with no restrant.

truth be told, i find it hilarious...probably because of the same as above...i'm not racist... i laugh at racial jokes with equal opportunity, after all... i love "honkey" jokes ^_^

as for bumper stickers...i adore funny ones... i can't remember what someone said about it, but i remember a joke being told about the "jesus is my co-pilot" bumpersticker :)

Too much advice and not enough salt to go with it. That's all I can say on the subject.

*grins* I got a guy that says things like that in my flat. I ususally snap back with "God this" And flip him off but yeah. I'm a christian at heart, but I believe that gods influence, although major, isn't something to be continueally referenced, as this life is put here for us to do our work for him. Not to sit there forcing others to believe in him. He isn't here to hold our hands. Hes here to watch us do what we can to prove ourselves.

Meh. I don't like being a christian ranter so I'll stop there. Makes me feel like one of those Jehova's witnesses going door to door >.> Not like theyre not annoying or anything... Honest... <.<

*squeek* Damn right. :3
Just because you're short doesn't mean you're small all over! X3

....wait, what were we talking about?

PRAISE THE LAWWWD!!!!

*Quotes Monty Python for a sec*

Oh Lord, thou art so big. So monsterously huge. Let me just say, that we, being tiny in comparison, are really impressed down here.

What you have to understand is that this only works if god does not hate you because you are a pervert sinner.

God has a huge fuckin' sombrero! [/Denis Leary]

Some people tend to forget... All troubles are small to god... but ... YOU'RE not god. ^^

Amen! Preach, Sistabro!

LOL i love your idea for that sticker!

That's profound, funny and sad all at the same time.

....either that or I need a LOT more sleep. >-.-<
