Well now that you understand that some people choose to not drink, did you want to get back on the topic? Were you going to enlist the time reading the thread at all?

No it doesnt. Stem cells are the body's master cells. Scientists are studying them for the emerging field of regenerative medicine.They also want to use them to study disease and to seek better treatments for cancer, diabetes and other conditions.Those found in day old embryos can produce any cell type found in the body. So-called adult stem cells are found in the blood and in all tissues and are less flexible.

Response to what?

I basically agree. "Do not" does not mean never. There is a differance between being incapable like an alcoholic or someone with a failing liver and choosing not to drink. Anyway, evolution anyone?

Well basically. Although "do not" implies that I still can and choose of my own volition not to. Also, I was afraid on my profile if i selected never drinks it could be a problem if someone thought I was incapable of drinking which would be a lie. Anyway, are we ever going to talk about evolution on this thread again?

Do not is not synonymous with never because we do not know what time frame you are talking about. I might not drink ever but I am capable of drinking whenever I like. An alcoholic (on a dating site) would need to be aware of that

Im not sure i understand that comment. Anyway were you ever going to discuss evolution or simply my drinking habits (or lack there of)?

Do not is not the same as never. Look I will prove it in grammatical structure.

I do not eat sushi.

I will eat sushi but I choose not to eat it. perhaps I dont want the sushi right then. This implies I do not want the sushi but I am not incapable of eating the sushi ever.

Don’t is not synonymous with never. I also just explained. This is a dating site. If a man approached me under the mistaken notion that I NEVER drink or am incapable of drinking and I can, then that would be a lie. I have also drunk in the past and can in the future if I choose.



No it isn’t and especially not in the situation mentioned above. If someone is in recovery from alcoholism, they can not be around alcohol. They can not be with someone who drinks AT ALL in most cases.



Yes I don’t choose to drink but if I was presented with a glass of wine, yes I could drink that wine. I have no medical conditions that would prohibit me drinking.



Exactly.



Anyone could murder if they wanted to. An alcoholic in recovery willfully chooses not to drink. It is not an option for them and ideally they would choose not to be with someone who can drink, even if on occasion. They want someone who NEVER drinks so they are not tempted.

I said I dont drink and I dont smoke and I rarely use foul language. If I were to go out to dinner and there was a bottle of wine I could have a glass if I wanted. I do not drink to the point of intoxication. If I stated that I never drank on my profile, and a man approached me who was a recovered alcoholic, that would be misleading to him because I CAN drink. This is a dating site after all.

I dont drink. I can drink if I want. If I stated that i never drink, I dont think thats even an option, then it woudl be a lie. I might have a beverage with a meal. I dont drink to the point of intoxication. I love the taste of red wine. It would be a lie if I claimed I never drink. I do not purchase alcohol in the grocery store.

What do you call claiming you have faith and then stating you have nothing to lose?



But in a historical context, when looking back upon Christianity we know that not to be the case.




Well if it ends up there is nothing after death, as the Atheists seem to feel, then it won’t matter to you or I correct?



You are the one who can't make up your mind.



I have sat through a lot of trials. Witnesses ALWAYS break down.

You forgot to add your comments.

I’ve never acknowledged that hell exists. I never will acknowledge it exists. People create their own hells on earth and they are very good at it.



You said so yourself in your last post. You have nothing to lose.



I don’t want to go to heaven. I don’t believe in that either.



I find it odd that you keep contradicting yourself from one post to the next. First you have nothing to lose and now you have a lot of faith riding on the bible being true. Pick one and go with it. Either you care or you don’t.




Because it’s funny.

Really? Aren’t you a Christian? Seems like you would have quite a bit invested in this.



Why do you think I will twist? I quote you and it is your own words. I merely pointed out that you were a Christian which means that you should have at least something invested in this. It’s your god after all, not mine. I think most Christians would feel strongly but maybe you just don’t care.



And what are those principles? We know historically they have meant death, oppression, torture and imprisonments for millions. I don’t drink, I don’t smoke, I don’t hardly even use foul language. I don’t believe for one minute that Christians have corned the market on moral behavior.



I thought you said you had nothing invested in this.



I don’t believe in hell and even if it were true, oh well. I’m not afraid of something like that.



You JUST stated you had FAITH INVESTED.

And how would you know if you refuse to read the thread?



Really? Aren’t you a Christian? Seems like you would have quite a bit invested in this.



I do? But isn’t that what non-believers are constantly being accused of? Having nothing invested in anything except science and reason?



Your entire belief system if you are a Christian.



Well nothing according to you.





Boy that was easy and I didn’t even need to put my thinking cap on.

Well it seems weird but covering yourself like that does help keep the sun off you in that Mediterranean heat. I don’t know about black though. Generally the men wrap themselves in white.

It’s been proven to my satisfaction. As stated you would know if you read the thread. Or any part of the thread. It is incompatible with the bible because the bible states that humans were created from mud and that is not true. You can prove this statement to be false if you like. We are waiting. Jump in. Go ahead.

and you know this because...?




Really? I just naturally feared him due to all that stoning business. And how does a "father" create anything? I thought mothers were responsible for birth.



Were you beat as a child?



That is not "Love."



Really? I am good on my own.



People like Hitler and the Witch hunters in Salem, Mass 1692?



He also did some leadin into the Crusades.

If you had read the thread, you would know.
